PCM on my car is causing issues. It starts and runs fine on cold (especially now, in the winter), but as the engine heats up engine starts to stall. Slight knock on PCM also shuts the engine. Pre-heating it up to about 40C/104F causes intermittent no crank and frequent stalls. Overall PCM seems...

Hi everyone. Need the pcm calibration file to flash to the existing pcm. Found this website that lets you download the calibration files but you have to know the calibration file name, which I don't have...

Hello everybody. I am having no start issues, which seem to relate to either PCM or the PATS. Some pre-history. Around 3 years ago while crossing a pool of rather deep water (slightly higher than middle of the wheels) car stalled and would not start. At first it cranked but no start, but then...

Happy new year everybody! I have an issue with high fuel consumption. Currently it is winter time with temperatures about -10C to -16C/14F to 3F, and I am seeing about 28l/100km, 8 - 8.5mpg. I don't do a lot of idling for engine warming, but the trips are usually short, 7-8km, or about...

Does anyone know where can I buy the screw/bolt that holds the MAF sensor to the intake boot? I mean the two hex screws. I lost one of them.

When heater is put into defrost airflow, then the heat is not as hot as in panel airflow. Is this normal? I don't have clicking noises in front, though rear AC does click and requires replacing both temperature blend and direction control motors. But this is about front module. From what I...

Sometimes I have a belt squealing. Usually happens in the morning, especially during cold starts. Also, sometimes squeals for short period when I turn on the AC. From time to time when turning the wheels fast from one side to other, I can feel "lumps" of resistance, like hydraulic booster going...

I always felt like the AC isn't blowing cold enough air while on idle. About a month ago had the system evacuated and refilled again with 1250grams/44oz (has auxillary ac in the back). But compared to my brother's Honda Accord 2.4 2008, it still not good enough. At an ambient temp of about...

Does anyone one know an easy way to fix this scratch? Somebody scratched vehicles in the parking lot (4 vehicles were scratched). Line drawn on the right side of the vehicle, through front and rear passenger doors. Scratch does not seem to be very deep, at least I can't see the metal, only some...

Regarding MOOG quality. I had installed MOOG problem solver lower ball joints in an 2008 Ford Explorer in beg.of May 2012 (both L/R). Now they seem to have totally failed, mileage is not more than 6000 miles, just city driving no offroad. It's about -20C (-4F) in here, and they started clunking...

Where can I buy a sway (stabilizer) bar bushing online? Need it for 2008 V6 Explorer. Fordparts.com lists the both right and left side as 5484, but with different prices. I had already bought 4L2Z-5484-DA, but it did not fit. Ones on the vehicles are different, they have both have groves on...

I have a 2008 Ford Explorer V6 4.0L with 5R55S transmission, 45000miles, 4X4. Vehicle is a middle east spec car, purchased in Dubai. 1) Most of the time shifts from 2nd to 3rd happen with a bump. I can't here any related noise, like clunk etc. Not sure if a flare is visible in the tachometer...

I have a 2008 Ford Explorer 4.0L 5R55S From reading the forums it seems I need to have two keys to be able to program another spare. If only one key, then need to go to a dealer who using his equipment clears the old key code from PATS and programs two new keys in. But we do not have any...

What is the exact engine volume of the 4.0L engine on 2008 Ford Explorer? I have seen it being referred as 244CID (3998cm3) and 245CID (4015cm3). In general listed engine volume range from 3956cm3 to 4015cm3. Which is the correct one?

Compared to 2008 the 2007 model has fender flares and bumpers painted in a different color. Is this a paint, or some type of coating? Currently considering buying either 2007 or 2008 model. Wondering if 2007 with its dual color scheme is more complicated for repair in case of future...
