    Low beam bulb extraction

    Hello there! Low beam on the rightside died, and I went and picked up a Silverstar to put in. So(following the procedure in the owners manual), I pop the hood, pull the old bulb out, put the Silverstar in, and.... Hmmm, no head light. Well, as the stomach acid started churning I had to get...

    Loud POP from the dash

    This morning, when I turned on the defrost it made this very loud POP sound from inside the middle of the dash. And it made the sound once or twice more and then didn't do it again. When I got to work, I dropped the glove box down to see if I could see it do something. Of course it worked fine...

    Alternator excitement!

    Hello there! Just a day or two ago, I was given the dreaded "Check Charging System" warning. The car went dark, and then it came back up right away, so I just put it off as a quirk, and then checked the warning out here when I got home. Didn't do it in the morning, on the way to work, but it...

    Rear air bags pumping all the way up

    I have a co worker with a 1996 Town Car, and while it has a few problems, it also has a major problem with the suspension. The rear end ends up so high in the air that it almost looks like a Funny car! He says it's also a super stiff ride, and any bumps in the road make the rear end bounce up...

    Transmission is singing

    That's a more positive way to put it, rather than whining! It does not sing in park or neutral. Above 30 mph, it starts to have an RPM related whine, I mean song. It also seems to sometimes fall out of gear and I have to play with the throttle a bit to get it back into gear. I checked the...

    Coolant suggestions

    I've been getting the 'Low Coolant' message on the display. I haven't checked for leaks yets, and I haven't seen any puddles or smelled coolant in the car, so I'm hoping it just needs some coolant. I searched but came up with too many false positives to be useful. But I did see that I should...

    Hello there! For an older project car( '61 Thunderbird!), I would like to replace the original 390 and transmission with a 5.4 (3 valve) and a modern transmission. I'm wondering if anyone knows any good sources of information for such things? 'Cuz I seem to be having a hard time getting any...

    Rattle/Vibration sound

    Hello there! My Mark recently started making an annoying rattling/vibration sound from 40mph to, well it doesn't stop but it varies with speed. It seems to be coming from the back drivers side/rear seat window area. The only thing that seems consistent is that it starts around 40mph...

    Windshield Wipers not wiping!

    Hello there! When I went to go to work last night, I went to use the wipers to sweep the windshield clear. They came up about two inches, and that that was the extent of the area that they cleared as they kept wiping. Any suggestions before I take it to the dealer? Thanks! SC edit - This...

    Service recommendations for Seattle?

    Greetings, Sorry if this is the wrong section, but this seems to be as close as I can find to a general Lincoln/Mark section. I asked this a year or three ago, and unfortunately the dealer that I was going to has changed hands, and it looks like it might be for the worse. Not opposed to a...

    Trouble with fuel gauges and system display

    Greetings, Back in January my fuel pump/sender was replaced at the dealership.* Ever since then the gauge is not reporting accurately. The computer shows the(within 1/2 gallon) accurate amount of fuel used, but remaining is just as inaccurate as the analog guage. When full, all three show...

    Frozen doors

    Greetings, What with the ill weather we have been having lately, and just generally really cooooold nights, the doors seem to be getting frozen/stuck to the seals. Any stuff I should wipe on to the seals or the doors to help cut down on this problem. Thanks, SC

    Trouble code scanners

    Greetings, Well, my '96 is acting up again, or rather it isn't acting up. It isn't doing much of anything. So, I was wondering what error code scanners might be better to get, or which ones should I avoid like the plague? Thanks, SC
