  1. Trunk Lid Release Over the License Plate Quit Working

  2. A/C compressor not spinning

    Any way to check if the compressor is locked up of if the clutch is just bad? The solenoid seems to be engaging, but the compressor shaft isn't spinning. It turns just slightly and slowly when the clutch should be engaged and there is what appears to be clutch material or grease extruding from...
  3. SOS - Car won’t start (SOLVED!)

    I thought a 3 y.o. battery was the culprit, but I changed that out and it didn’t help. Vehicle doesn’t seem to be responding to the key. Lock & unlock don’t work. If I press the trunk open button repeatedly it will flash the hazards once. Door handles don’t lock or unlock doors. Interior...

    https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2022/02/23/ford-recall-mustang-backup-camera/6906852001/ Just a little late if you ask me. I'll bet we don't get reimbursed if we've already replaced it.

  8. A/C Diagnostic help requested.

    Back in 2017 I had the dreaded failed evaporator. Now on hot days my A/C will intermitentely blow warm (not hot) air and my compressor seems to be short-cycling. For the most part the system does blow cold, but not as cold as I believe it should. What I find interesting is that my low-side...
  9. Spark Plug Replacement

    I just replaced my spark plugs (93,000 mi) this weekend and I feel like I had to get a little creative on #8. With the battery box in the way, I used two 3" extensions because a single 6" wouldn't fit into the plug well. I tied a string to the first extension just in case there was a separation...
  10. What is the life expectancy of OE struts?

    How long are the OE struts expected to last and what are some signs that they are going? I've just under 100k on a '16 GTPP. This is my first vehicle with struts so I have little experience with what's normal, and what to feel/listen for to replace them. Lately my ride has changed a bit. I...
