I'd like opinions on which hood strut kit to get. I'm old and feeble, and that 50# hood is a PITA. I've downloaded and looked at videos for Rousch, CDC, MMD, Ford Performance, MRT, and Redline. I'm leaning towards the MMD strut kit. I'd like to hear opinions on any of the above that you may...

2006 4.0 V6 automatic. Runs great. Filling up is very frustrating. When I try to add fuel to my tank, the station gas pump keeps shutting off. I have to keep squeezing the pump handle repeatedly. Twisting the handle or withdrawing it slightly does not help. The franchise owner says he can't...

I saw this thing advertised on a Motortrend TV show...Car Fixit or some name...two guys working on cars... Anyway, it looked interesting so I went to the web site - https://pedalcommander.com/products/ford-mustang Simple plug & play between the accelerator pedal connection. Box stick-on to...

I like pretty much everything about my 2006 4.0 V6 base-model Mustang exterior. Previous owner(s) individualized it with the foglights and 5-spoke wheels. But I don't love the foglights and grille. I would rather keep the hexagonal style but without the foglight openings and the silly horsey...

Anyone know why OBDLink is down??? https://www.obdlink.com/ I check the Support page monthly to see if a new firmware has been posted, but that's down too... :( https://www.obdlink.com/support/ex/ ScanToolNet is down too... https://www.scantool.net/downloads/updates/obdlink_ex/

2006 4.0L V6 89K miles. Been running pretty well since 'fixing' my other problems. About 100 miles since then. Had this DTC (pic attached) pop up during a quick check to see if I still had P1000 DTC. (My manual tells me P1000 must be deleted to pass my state inspection). The P0133 was...

I bought my 2006 Mustang 4.0L V6 last November. I'm third owner; CarFax indicates previous owners serviced car religiously [87,000 miles]. I've read that the dealer had the capability to flash the PCM with updates/revisions. Is there a way, using ForScan 2.3.48 (or other means), to identify if...

I'm reading my owners manual, and it says "...if so equipped"...How do I tell??? There's no On/Off switch that I can find. I do have the flashing red 'lock' icon in my tach pod, but there's no way to tell if it's armed or not, or even equipped... :( My two keys are just thin black plastic...

...So I decided to fix it... :( I took off the throttle body and cleaned the sludge off with Throttle Body Cleaner, cleaned the MAF sensor with MAF sensor cleaner, and took off the accelerator pedal and checked/wiped off the attenuator contacts. Put everything back together, and got these...

2006 4.0L V6 w/auto. Stock, no mods, 88K miles. Since I've owned it (last November), the throttle spring (for lack of a better term) has been way too strong. There's no giving the pedal a gentle nudge; it's a violent acceleration from a stop. I also own a 2008 Escape I4 and that has a much more...

2006 4.0L V-6 auto trans single exhaust...This thingy is on the left branch of the pipe, aft of the catcons, before the muffler/resonators. Nothing connected to it, no leads or attachments on it. It's welded to the pipe. What is it??? What does it do??? Why is it there??? I'm thinking of a new...

Just got in a set of the dreaded seat extenders and was looking to see how easy/hard to grind/cut off the rivets and noticed that my drivers side front rail mount was pretty rusty. I'm 3rd owner, first two were Kentucky and Ohio; no CarFax notes about flood damage, no wet floor. I've already...

My 2006 V6 has only 87K miles; undercarriage is rustfree, but the single exhaust is getting scary (I've had exhaust pipes fall down under power - not pretty). I've looked at the more popular suppliers but don't see any cat-back (or with cat) single pipe exhausts in stainless. My car is the Lime...

I bought my 2006 4.0L V6 w/auto trans about three weeks ago. 15 years old and only 87K on the clock. It seems to have been garaged in Winter and only driven moderately. I drive a bit more spiritedly. My 2008 Escape I4 has an ECU that can 'learn' how you like to drive. Disconnect the battery and...

2006 V6 w/auto; 87K miles; poking around under the hood looking for the plastic thermostat housing (found it!) I noticed my serpentine belt was kind of tight...So I pressed on the tensioner with both hands and it wouldn't move... Is this normal??? I can't see any way to relieve the tension...
