Peter, I bought the car a couple of years ago in Atlanta. Later, I was doing some maintenance to the underside and discovered that someone had put in one of the upstream O2 sensor extentions to fool the ECM into not seeing a P0420. Probably the dealer to pass emissions. I should have checked...

I've replace the left side (front) Catalytic Converter, which is the P0430 code, a while back. It was not bad to replace. Wondering how hard it is to replace the right side (backside) Catalytic Converter. Looking for a little heads up before I replace it.

Nope.....the rubber piece that goes on top of the base plate and under the pillar trim. About and 1" wide and goes from the bottom of the windshield to the top. Been a "B" to find.

2013 Rubber Weatherstrip under drivers side pillar moulding. I need a source and/or part#. Rubber weatherstrip ripped off from the wind.

I have a 2013 Ford Explorer that shows the P0420 code. Catalyst below threshold. While running a scan tool the o2 bank 1x2 and o2 bank 2x2 are fluctualing between .1 volts and .9 volts quite nicely. These are the downstream sensors for Banks 1 & 2. While scanning the o2 banks 1x1 and 2x1...

Hello Everyone, I like using google maps on my cell phone, but it would be nice to have the cell phone display shown on my Radio. My vehicle is a 2013 Ford Explorer. "SYNC Services" Is there anyway to do this? Maybe wired? Thanks

Here is what my valve body looked like before I installed a rebuild kit. The material in the passages reminded me of the copper stuff in that Bar's Stop Leak. Very fine particles. I'm thinking that it is band material and the bands need to readjusted?

A rebuilt torque converter was installed when I rebuilt the transmission. 15,000 miles. Sad to hear.

Good suggestion. I thought of doing that earlier. 4th gear set works with front band. May need to be adjusted after breakin.

Rebuilt 5R55W 15,000 miles ago. Removed Valve Body, cleaned, completely tore apart, brushed, and install a shift kit. Kit said it should take care of the Torque Convertor slip. Car drives nice and smooth, but still getting the P0741 code. Thransmission is surging trying to lock the clutch up...

Spectra did not work. Still slipping TCC (P0741)

Anyone have any suggestions for adding a additive to my 2002 Ford Explorer 5R55W transmission without loosing a bunch of it? Fords worst idea of filling from bottom plug instead of a dipstick.

Has anyone figured out how to repair these 4X4 Control Modules. When I bought my 2002 Explorer, the module was bad. Found one a Pull-A-Part and it worked for about 6 months. Getting tire of junk yard diving.

Hello everyone.......Merry Christmas I am wanting to swap my 2002 Ford Explorer with a aftermarket radio. Looking to a radio to take up the double Din space. Does anyone know the opening space after the radio is removed. Outside it measures 7-1/4" x 4-1/4". Would the inside dimension be 7"...

Stopped for coffee this morning first thing after leaving house. Didn't use cruise control until I went 10 miles and got on a 4 lane highway. Runs on CC just fine and doesn't disengage. Guess I could pull the fuse to the cruise control and see if it happens again. It was doing the RPM thing a...
