You’ve obviously never owned or serviced a vehicle like those Mercedes is describing. Work at a Ford/Lincoln dealer. Prior to getting this tool, the only way to effectively purge air from the cooling system of a Lincoln LS V8 was to raise the front wheels about 18" off the ground with the engine running and the air pur…

Sorry, had to.

Yes there is. It's called YouTube. 

Even better, go back to the 1970 prototype.

The Pic got Kinja’d. Here’s what I’m talking about.

I get what you’re saying, but they don’t do it for the same reason temperature gauges only read Hot and Cold or Oil pressure gauges rear high or low. The average consumer doesn’t know how to interpret what they’re seeing, and can misinterpret an actual gauge reading. Back in the day, when Ford used to label the…

A bunch of the newer cars switched to a gloss black capacitive touch panel. No rubber labels to wear anymore.

The best is how there’s both a fuel saver and an HP booster. Clearly, they're two different products. 

Wait, why is there a Ford badge on the trunk? Is this not a Mercury? Are you telling me the Ford Tempo and Mercury Topaz are the same vehicle? MIND BLOWN!!

So Majestic!!!

I know it’s not original, but it still makes me laugh every time.

So, they've already recalled both the toe links and the cross axis joints before. Is this a different recall or an expansion of the last recalls?

Honestly, if it takes more effort than that, you may have a seized or sticking caliper piston. Me personally, I always just use a pry bar between the rotor and the pad backing. 

This goes for just about any AWD vehicle. The AWD relies on slight variations in wheel rotation speed to engage. Any difference in overall tire circumference, either from different model tires or even uneven wear, will cause one tire to turn at a slightly different speed than the others and cause the AWD to engage…

Ford carried over that lovely “feature” to the D4 Platform Explorers. Any fuel system service requires removal of the rear driveshaft and removal of the fuel tank. Interestingly, the D3 vehicles (Five Hundred, Montego, Freestyle) which have a more direct link to Volvo all have access plates under the back seats for…

I’m not sure how that works, every version of SYNC 3 since 2017 has CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility baked in. There’s no way to not get it in a Ford if there’s a touchscreen. Even the older versions of Sync 3 from 2016 can have CarPlay/Android Auto added via a software update.

This was me watching the demo derby, waiting for the fireball.

00 Nissan Maxima tiptoed into the trend, originally w black surrounds, then going full chrome a year or so later.
