    2006 explorer vent no air

    So, its pretty cold here in NorthEast and putting on the heat just feels pretty good in the winter. Problem is, it only works on speed 3 and 4, but at that point I can't hear my own thoughts. For some reason speed 1 and 2 either don't work or work real ****ty. Not sure what to do.

    I think it finally died

    So, I'm pretty sure the motor is gone. After messing around with it for a while, doing so much research and checking everything, I give up. The oil light is now on all the time, the motor starts and runs but chatters, ticks and clicks at the top, like the oil it not getting up there at all. I...

    Rebuilt engine brand/company

    Looks like my exploder took a turn for the worst. Driving it last few days with rattling, ticking, pinging, all sorts of noise in the motor. So, I'm going to drive it till it just stops dead. Now for the better part.... I'm going to go with a rebuilt motor since the car itself is fine and...

I think I maybe looking into scouring the internet for another motor to avoid any more problems with this one and need to know for sure that if I were to find a good deal on...

    Oil pump replacement? Help.

    So, I've had it rough with the exploder but before I'm ready to give up and replace the 4.0 or rebuild it/have it rebuilt, I want to try one last shot with replacing the oil pump as I'm thinking is the problem now. Long story short, I had a major oil leak a month back, which was repaired and...

    Free Stuff 2000 Ex 4.0L

    Not sure if I'm posting in the correct section. I have a few parts left over from my 2000 2-DR v6 4.0L explorer. I'd toss them out, but I feel bad throwing money away and maybe someone needs them. I'm willing to give them away free, as long as you pay for shipping. 1. Fuel filter...

    So, out of nowhere the truck is stuttering, sputtering, shaking and doesn't go. If i press the gas, it just doesn't react, the car does roll maybe 5mph which is how I got it home. There were codes that said misfires all over the place. I replaced the plugs, wires and coil pack with original...

    Major oil leak

    So my Ex sprung a massive oil leak. No clue where the oil was coming from and the horrid stench of burning oil was really annoying. Got to the shop, they're familiar specifically with these 2000+ EX's. I was told right off the bat that its the rear main seal and they've dealt with this in the...

    Knocking-Rattling

    I've got some crazy rattling or knocking noise coming from the car. Can't figure out if it's engine or trans or maybe the radiator fan. Could it be timing chain? It's sort of like the noise these cars have on a cold start. However, this noise keeps going from start well into running warm...

    TPMS Repair

    Think I might be able to replace the batteries in my TPMS sensors. So I had bought the learning tool since I had no idea which sensor was bad, that and programming a new one later on. Then purchased two new sensors on eBay. So, now I have the two non working TPMS and decided to mess with...

    Oem parts source?

    Where do you guys get OEM parts from? I used to have a Camaro and there was a couple of guys that the entire forum would always contact for OEM parts where forum members had pretty much the best possible discount for the public while still beating the price if you were to go to the local dealer.

    Tires question

    Anyone try the Falken ZIEX ZE-612 or 912 on their 18" rims? I can't figure out which tires to go with, but then again, i'm looking to stick to a $500 budget for the tires, since it will cost me another $80 to swap, balance and recycle old tires. I've got the 235/65/18R right now. I'll take...
