I finally went back to the dealership that quoted me an insane price for an 01 2wd Mountaineer, and actually got a much better price. Then I gave it a good looking over and wow! Turns out the first price they gave me a few weeks ago was pretty reasonable after all...this thing is nice. I...

After driving for awhile and stopping then start driving again it soundsand feels like the 4WD is engaging on the front wheels. Is this the result of a need for a fluid top off?

Have an excellent and well-loved Ford SUV Explorer from the 94's. One out of seven stops I will hear grinding gear sound and feel it through the brake pedal. Just a second or less because when the wheels come to a complete stop the noise stops. So I'm thinking break pedal hitting a drive train...

We recently put on a new cellnoid (SP?) and alternator and new battery and now when it starts up it grinds and we are unable to find the cause. Any suggestions?

My left rear wheel recently started making a grinding noise (right after having the rear discs replaced). It is worst at low speeds (up to 20-25 mph) and most notably, it gets much worse when cornering either left or right, especially left. It seemed to disappear a few days after having the...

I've got a strange grinding noise comming from the front-end of my '97 expedition. Seems to only happen when turning corners and accelerating. I've also noticed that the ride has gotten rougher. I'm planning on taking it in soon to have it looked at as the problem seems to have gotten worse...

Hi All! On occasion, when I turn the key, I hear no fuel pump and I only get one click (like a breaker opening) at this time the door panel lights are real dim and the headlights do not burn. Usually at 30-120 seconds the lights come on bright, I hear the fuel pump, and am then allowed to...

Hello: I've got a 2002 Explorer with the 4.6l V8, auto trans, and 4x4. I use it to tow a 4000 lb boat through mountain highways. Since new I've had trouble getting smooth downshifts when towing up hills. If, anticipating an upcoming hill, I ease on the throttle and downshift manually...

Tell me what you think... '99 Mercury Mountaineer, V-8 5.0L engine, 98K miles. Lately she's been getting harder and harder to start. As in not REAL hard, but she cranks for a good 2 seconds before she catches. Once running, no problems. No recent changes in engine performance or MPG's. But,...

I'm buying a 1995 ford explorer the only problem is that the truck sticks in first gear it wont go into second we think it might be the modulator if anyone knows why it wont go into second let me know.

I have a 94 ford Explorer, it has been running hot recently so I replaced the water pump, thermostat, hoses, and radiator. Since replacing all of this I notice that the water temp gauge is telling me everything is ok, but when I stop it will move up but never to the red area of the gauge. When I...
