I've had problems with the wheel not getting back where I want it after flipping the seat up to allow access to the back seat as well. Both motors, telescoping and tilt, work fine sometimes but not others. I have 3 children under 5 years and from time to time I'll take one or two of them in the...

2011 mkt awd.

I was looking through my service schedule the other day and was somewhat surprised at the length of time between change interval, specifically transmission and differentials. I have the 6f55 AWD transmission, and is not recommended to be changed until 150, 000 miles. Has anyone got that many...

Impressive.

Do you a working windshield washer reservoir low level sensor?

/ Does the low windshield washer fluid level switch still work? If so, how much?

Where did you get the pigtail?

I don't think it's a leak. I used the cut a hole under the back seat method to remove it and i haven't smelled any gas and the fuel mileage is fine. I'll start it and remove the backseat to verify. I've got an SCT tuner also so I can hook it up and see if the values are consistent with what DLF...

I finally got a chance to talk to the guy who tuned the car, and apparentley the lady I talked to before had me mistaken for another customer. He mentioned that the fuel pump was at max duty cycle at 2500 RPM's when I brought it in, which maybe makes sense because of the extra air flow. After...

Yeah I'll agree that the car has to be able to inhale and exhale. I'll have to start saving my dough up for a new exhaust. I thought that was kind of strange that he mentioned a booster also. I wonder if he was just trying to make some easy money for the shop.

Yes the injectors are stock.

I talked to the shop that tuned the car, and they said they didn't go over 5500 due to the lowering of fuel pressure. I only got to talk to the lady at the front desk, and she made it sound like they couldn't maintain a good air/fuel ratio. They suggested installing a booster. Several months...

Maybe I'll call on Monday and see why he stopped there. Is it possible that he stoped there because he felt like he had enough data?

It does have a stock exhaust and they did tune it on the Dyno. They had all day one day and part of the morning the next. I guess I'll look at other folks Dyno sheets and compare. But based on what you guys said, it's probably about where it should be. I did tell them that I was losing power...

Dyno results Brand new from the factory, the Mark VIII LSC/CE came with 290bhp. Going by the old rule of thumb, 20% drivetrain loss for an automatic, the car should have had about 232 rwhp 'ish brand new. I've installed a Cobra intake manifold, k&n air filter, aluminum driveshaft, and removed...
