THe rear bearing feel really tight. I still don't know what it is....

I checked I did set mine that the key pad automatically unlocks all doors but I can't remember how I done it. And one push of the remote does the same.

I wish there was a way to tell if it was the front brakes. I don't think it is but makes me wonder. Applying the brakes doesn't change the noise anyway though. But I done some brake work on it a while back and had to run a new and old pad till I could get the slides in the calipers to break...

Need some help. I have a 2008 merc mounty that has had a on going noise in the front end. It is a whoo whoo that is the worst between 20-45mph. It does change a bit with the steering don't stop and start but the rhythm is different. I have changed both wheel bearing, both cv axles, yesterday the...

Thanks, Ya that is what I have been looking at and it shows to be the same for both rides. I hope this fixes it. I am fed up with the noise and not being able to trust this thing to go anywhere.But it fixed it when you replaced the diff? The one I am looking at only has 68K on is so it should be...

Go in the vehicle and hit hit the setup button for the message center I think it is and you can change this to it will unlock all doors with one press of the remote button. I think it changes the door pad thing too. But I can't remember.

The front U Joint was replace a while back early in the hunt for what is causing this horrible sound. I will recheck it though thanks for reminding me I am so sick of dealing with this thing. It is making a bad whoo whoo noise that is the worst between 20 and 55mph. I hate to spend the $$$ on it...

My front end has been making a noise for some time. I have replaced both wheel bearings and both cv axles. So I am convinced it is the Diff. I have found another differential that I can get for a decent price. I think it should interchange but just wanted to make sure. My ride is a 08 mounty AWD...

The cold mornings here in the mtns of Virginia does that to mine too.

I had a Throttle Position sensor code come up and made my ride die. I looked to the sensor to replace it and found the insulation on the wires was the issue. I cut out the bad and put in new. Works like new!

My 02 had the filler neck get rusty and about quit taking gas. I went to the junk yard for a used one and that done the trick. Stu

Well heres what I found. My 08 4.0 mounty threw the wrench and CEC light. I was looking and started to take off the throttle pos. sensor. The wires from about 1 inch above the TPS plug up say an inch or so the insulation had dried up and was pealing off really bad. The wires were bare and even...

Thanks guys. Ya Im still alive. Just been really busy. Hope you all are ok and thanks again. Stu

I have a 02 Merc. Mounty and the read window washer has quit spraying. It is full of fluid and the front still works. I took the sprayer end off on the rear and I could blow threw it so it isn't stopped up. I don't know where the pump is located to see if it is trying to work or anything. Just...

THanks Town, it has abotu quit doing it now. If it starts again I will look for leaks. Good info you gave me! Stu

On my 08 v6 mounty I have been hearing a hissing noise that sounds like it around the air/heat unit. It seems to be worse when you go into a curve and shift the vehicle a bit. Also with the air running it is like it just quits blowing out of the vents. I have the climate control air or whatever...

Both of my horns died. I had to replace them. I got them out of a junk yard. I took a voltmeter and checked for power at the horn plugs. I was getting power at the plugs so I knew all else was good. They are a PITA to get to though, seems like they were way up in the inner fenders. But check it...

Update again! I didn't get time to take it in for the smell but yesterday it finally made it a have to case. My wife was driving it and it started pouring the smoke. So she took it to the dealer "again" 4th time. They haven't let me know anything yet though. I counted it up they have had it 66...

Update: The Mounty is still smelling like burning oil doesn't appear to be loosing any according to the dipstick but the smell is quite strong. It is really bad if the motor is good and hot and you stop with the AC on. If you are in it a bit it kinda will give you a headache it is so strong. I...

That is what I am thinking Wood1. I got it today, the serv. manager said that it was a clamp broke where the coolant goes up into the rear heating core. It is right above the rear exhaust pipe. They said it was leaking down on the pipe rather than coming out of the pipe. Not sure if I am buying...

Well I supposed to go get it tomorrow. They said it was a heater hose leaking coolant into the motor? Is that possible? I have such a bad feeling about this thing now. I think am going to trade it and stay away from Ford. The service sucks. Stu

I think they already know I am not a push over. So where can I get a copy of the "warr. agreement" That is a great idea. Anytime you can be one up on them, you are better off. I think that since they put the heads on under warr. the block will have to be as well. How can you tell me it was but...

THey tried to screw me on the warr. the 1st time. They told me if I didn't agree to pay for the clutch fan they put on "that I never agreed to have done and pay for" they would turn it into Ford and my claim would be disaproved. I promptly told them that I WOULD NOT be threatened into paying for...

No puddles, no noticable smoke. But they rechecked it and it is shooting out the tailpipe again. My guess is cracked block.What do you guys say? Really getting tired of this. About ready to tell them they can buy it off of me if they can't seem to find how to fix it. Stu

Well took it in on Fri. and got it back on Mon. they said they pressure tested it and it passed. Must have been air in the system They refilled it and sent me on. Said the smell was oil on the block. Got up today and the resivoir was empty again! Took it back to them again today. I am fed up...
