2005 Ford Freestyle AWD 105,000 Miles Popped a P1889, for the Haldex System. Took a glance, the motor is pretty well rusted. I jumped it to the battery and it ran, but it was weak. Kind of droned a little off and on. At the tune of $450, I ordered ...

Is Taurus X Interior the Same as Flex??
Just made a deal today for our 2nd Taurus X. Only 60,000 miles, no accidents, in really good shape. The one we bought back in 2008 is pushing 180k miles and has treated us well. My wife really likes it and doesn't really like anything new today, w...

Cracked Rear Quarter Panel Trim
I have cracked the rear quarter panel trim piece. The part is discontinued by Ford 5F9Z-74290A61-A so my only option is going to be getting one off of a part out. The other issue is I have no idea how to remove it. I see that it�s riveted and I drill...

Steering clunk noise.
Just finished up a 6-speed swap in my freestyle after my CVT's mechatronic unit went bad at 245k. Went to take the car for a test drive, and noticed a rhythmic clunking/clicking when turning the wheel. I can also feel the click through the floor if m...

Dome lights come on while driving
Hello, all ... 2007 Freestyle Limited. This started a year or two ago and has only got worse in spite of my efforts to "lube" everything attached to the cylinder. While driving along, day or night, the dome lights will randomly come on. If I jiggle t...
