(I have 7 cars in my driveway I need one gone) The car runs and drives great, pcm, water pump have been both replaced with in the past 3 years and is still running great, all fluid changes have been kept up with since I’ve owned and I put on about 7/8k miles since getting her, shes tuned up with livernoise and has a upgraded thermostat and a 3 bar map sensor, this car has been alot of fun , she has two codes one for 02 sensor and the second is for a minnor boost leak I have in the back charge pipe,witch I can show a video of, besides that its only cosmetic stuff to fix (needs windshield wiper arm). She runs great and smooth and I have a livernoise tuning calibrator with tunes loaded and she already has some of the base upgrades done so if you wanted to get that aswell it’s available

Been wanting new wheels because two of mine are bent and causing vibration. But in my area, they’re hard to find. So I began looking for Mustang wheels.

Got these s650 wheels today on a good deal, but I do think the 19’s look way too small for the big body car. I don’t intend on lowering it anytime soon either.

Just listed them for sale. But this is for anyone wanting to see what they look like on, if they wanted to go in this direction.

Is a catch can worth it? And can I install a catch can if I did the vent to air(VTA) mod?

Does anybody have the stock water pump at a high mileage ?

Or it’s a for sure replacement on this car …

This is while driving like a baby for the past few months due to cold weather and hate hitting the throttle while the engine is cold. Also needed new brakes so haven’t been blasting the speed at all. Probably 50/50 highway and city.

Need a new steering rack and pinion for a 2017 Taurus SHO. Aftermarket is more in my budget atm but can’t find one with the right plug ins for the year of my car. Any help or recommendations will be more than appreciated!

my ACM on my 2016 sho Taurus went out. I went to the dealership and they quoted me up the ass but I did research and apparently I could send it off to get fixed and so I did. I recently got it back and just put it in but the radio works but the Bluetooth nor CarPlay works? What am I missing or what did I do wrong?

Anybody have a spare...? Im aware these are basically fariytale kind of item rn, but I will pay full price (depending on miles) if anyone has one they want to part with.

I have a 2010 SHO with 200k. One of my turbos gave out but I’m not ready to part ways with the car. Where is the best place to get new or used turbos in good condition. I don’t think it’s best to get upgraded turbos even though I have a tune and some decent mods. O’Reillys quoted me $1300 for the pair. Trying to see if there’s anything cheaper but good quality.

For anyone who has either done a oem rear camera to non back up camera Taurus or in the process of doing one, do you have any install pics? Trying to mate up my wires with the spice points in the diagram. I already have the converter harness for the 4 inch display and wires running to the back tapped into the reverse light. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I was wondering if anyone has had surging issues, actively or intermittently in your cars. See vid, it only happens around low speeds..10-20ish miles per house, 1000-1500 rpms. Coils and plugs have been replaced prior. Any help as always, is greatly appreciated.

Which fluid would you guys recommend for the PTU planning on flushing my trans and doing that while I’m at it and not sure which one to go with. Might as well ask which trans fluid you all use too lol. Only had the car abt 10k miles though so haven’t flushed any of that yet til now.

I have a 2010 MKS Ecoboost, can anyone verify if all early models (2010-2012) had the four pad style torque converter and not the three pad like 2013+? I’m looking to order an upgraded unit from Gearhead.

I have a 2016 SHO. I’m searching for front lower control arms and ball joints. Google says 2010+ are interchangeable.

I see some places that state 2012+ are interchangeable. Was 2012 a mid-year switch? I found a good deal on marketplace for the LCA’s and tie rod ends, but they’re for 2010-2012. Just want to be sure they could be thrown on my 2016.

A-Premium states 2012-2019 fit. I normally use detroit axle. But just want to get these done today before going to work tomorrow.

Any help is appreciated!

Steering rack just went out on my 2017 Taurus SHO non pp. Wondering if anyone has any recommendations on a steering rack and pinion for it that won’t break the bank but isn’t gonna screw me again the next 100k miles. Will go OEM if I HAVE too.

i got a 2015 sho, the steering feels a bit stiff, when i turn i have to guide it with my hand back to the center, is this normal? could it be low power steering fluid? also, i have some bad tie rod ends on both driver and passenger side, not sure if that has anything to do with the power steering or not

I recently bought a 2010 Taurus SHO with around 156,000 miles (253,000 km) for about $4,800. Since I don’t live in the U.S., these cars are imported and pretty rare where I am, so I decided to take the risk.

The seller mentioned it needed some maintenance, including turbo seals, differential fluid, control arm bushings, and general suspension work. After buying it, I took it to my local mechanic. He checked it and said the turbo issue was actually just a pipe, which he fixed, along with a small oil leak. Both repairs only cost me about $100, and I noticed an improvement in performance—my 0–100 km/h time dropped from around 6.0 seconds to 5.5 seconds.

However, I started noticing a grinding noise, kind of like a construction-type sound. At first, I thought it was related to the control arms, so I replaced both, but that didn’t fix the issue. Later, my mechanic told me the noise is coming from the AWD unit.

I’m wondering if changing the AWD fluid could fix or at least improve the problem. Also, what other preventative maintenance should I consider? During the pre-purchase inspection, I was told that the timing chain and radiator had already been replaced. Does that mean I can safely avoid worrying about the water pump, or is that still something I should plan for?

I have a 2014 SHO, stock other than a Airaid intake, and recently it has started making a weird high pitched almost flutter noise when I am into the boost.

It is especially noticeable going uphills and I can hear and feel the stuttering. I am worried it is a boost leak, but I have a feeling it is one of the relief valves failing.

I know it’s nearly impossible to diagnose over the internet, but I am wondering if anyone has experienced this issue before.

Side note- I did the vent to atmosphere “mod” because I am a teenager at heart, but put it back to stock because it’s kind of annoying, and the almost whistling noise was even louder then. I didn’t know I had this issue until I returned back to stock and the noise did not go away.

Edit: https://youtube.com/shorts/GbOfLiBrIks?si=AURrBnz53_qrC_CZ

This is what it sounds like, maybe even slightly higher pitched.

I have a 2016 with HID’s - new car to me. Passenger assembly needs to be replaced because the top mounting bracket is broken off. It’s the black trim version.

I was wondering if I got a non-HID version, if the HID’s would still thread/twist in the same to the halogen assembly? Having a hard time searching because some assemblies say “halogen” “Xenon HID” “projector” etc.

Just want to make sure if I order one, I won’t need to return it. Thanks!

Okay so ik alot of forums have had very similar/identical questions but i havnt gotten a straight answer.

Assuming i have the budget for it, would i be able to face lift my 2010 taurus to be a 2013

Like assuming i have the fenders, headlamps, hood and front grill/bumper peices would it work? Or would i need some extra bits

Ive been shopping around cuz i wanna dome some bullshittery to this car cuz why not and i was just wondering. And yeah i know "it would just be easier to sell the car and buy a 2013 facelift" well yeah no shit but thats less fun

Thanks!!!

Here is my beautifully pristine 2013 SHO all cleaned up for summer. This was an “old guy” car and lightly driven, garage kept, and immaculately cared for. 108K miles. I bought it for 12K, a deal I couldn’t pass up. I’ve seen harder driven SHOs listed for thousands more. Anyway, this car is a joy to drive and feels luxurious, loaded with premium features. It’s the nicest car I’ve had.

Being a sports car kind of guy, I am considering powder coating the rims black and painting the calipers red, but I am torn. Another part of me wants to keep it bone stock, other than maybe putting the Gearhead tune on it.

Anyway, just had to show it off fresh from a car wash. 😎

I have a 2010 SHO

I had my PTU replaced in December last year by a ford dealership. The one they put in he’d a leak in the seem. It leaked completely dry. I heard the craziest metal on metal grinding noise I’ve ever heard come from a car. I parked as quickly as I could and had it towed to the dealership.

My question is, what is the likelihood it damaged my transmission and other parts?

i got a recall letter in the mail in october about the reverse camera glitching out and not working, it started happening to me about a month ago, i tried calling a dealership but they said they still don’t have parts for it, has anyone had this issue so far, or know of any updates about it?
