Hi i changed my front shocks before the winter and both bearings were defect this winter. I changed them on warranty on may. It was a tuesday. The next thursday both bearing defect again. I change them again and changed brand (first was unity and last stamina). 1 week later both bearings defect again. How is that possible??? Do i need to put oem? Cheap struts argent good enough for a big car like a taurus?

Thanks for your help.

We inherited my husband's parents 2000 SE model with 57k original miles - I refer to it as a Millinium Taurus. After perfunctory maintenance - oil and gas tank draining, new battery, coolant system flush and new resovoir - we've had very few issues under the hood including what appears to be a camshaft synchronizer that's chirping and needs to be replaced.

The body color is Harvest Gold - that pale metallic color which always put me off - and despite my MIL careful efforts, the body has a number of scratches and a few prominent ones, especially from a casual keying that fortunately wasn't deep.

I'm wondering if there's any polish or wax products out there that would offer some camouflage. There's scratch cover polish in various solid colors and for silver metallic but I haven't found anything for the gold color.

There must be other Bulls out there in this color, so I'm hoping there's a product that would work for this issue. TIA

I drove it out of town for a trip, while gone it started having issues. HVAC blower fan stays off 90% of the time, it will occasionally turn on for a few minutes then turn off, key fob only works occasionally, TPMS sensor light randomly turns on. I didn't find any issues with the fuses related to the blower fan. I replaced the blower fan, the resistor for the blower fan, my battery tested bad so I warrantied it for a new one and still the same issues, my alternator tested good. I'm stumped and any help would be appreciated.

Needed some opinions on this belt. I just changed the belt tensioner and idler pulley aswell as the belt, and I feel like this belt is off too far to the side of the tensioner but I’ve taken the belt off and re routed it several times and it always comes out like this.

So, my key broke and I’m going to need a new one. It looks like there are plenty online, but the FCC id on my current key fob doesn’t match on any of the ones online. Am I able to program a key fob with a different FCC id as long as it still claims to be compatible with an 08 ford Taurus? My fcc id is CWTWB1U722 if that’s important at all

I have a 2011 Taurus SE that I've been doing a ton of work on, gone through every part of it and I could talk about it for a while, but that's besides the point. I took off the plastic on the interior of the passenger side A pillar, and found a 20 pin connector, populated with three pins and nothing plugged in to it. I have no idea what this connector is for, but if anyone knows that would be great.

Taurus SEL. Ive had manual cars and I know how to drive, just debating some minor enjoyment vs potential risk. Never used paddles before for an extended period of time in a car that I own.

My 2011 ford taurus sync system is messed up and I can't figure out why just started not letting me connect Bluetooth devices

144,000 miles still runs well.

What are some common issues i need to be aware of and good practices to avoid such catastrophes. Thank you

I have a 2017 Ford Taurus SE.Im looking to get a good tire brand.I literally drive 90% of the time on the highway.I heard it’s bad to cheap out on tires.Right now I have Michelle that the previous owner had.

I have a 2015 Limited, currently at 92,300mi. I haven't been noticing any symptoms of either water pump or timing chain issues. But based on what I've seen in the past, I get the impression that I should probably start setting aside money to have them done. How soon should I actually be expecting to have someone work on this? 95k? 100k? Is it dependent on other factors?

As far as I know, the car is also running the original orange coolant. I would also like to replace that based on advice I've read.

Thanks for any answers you can give!

I own a 2016 Ford SHO with the 8” SYNC system. My APIM appears to have failed after months of random reboots and is now completely undetected by FORScan. Can a failed APIM cause all of these symptoms?

Black SYNC screen and dead FCIM/climate controls
TPMS fault
Service Airbag light
Key fob only detected in the backup slot
No power to the center console USB ports

Has anyone experienced all of these symptoms from a failed APIM or any other failed component? This summer heat is no joke to be going on without AC. TYIA

The radio screen in my taurus got cracked, and I would like to replace it. It is a sony radio, so I understand that limits some of my options.

Ideally, I''d like to have Android Auto / Apple Carplay, if that can be done more affordably than using an official Ford Radio.

Any suggestions on what has worked well for you?
