    2004 Silver L 24K miles Socal

    I wanted to test the interest level out there. I am strongly considering putting my L up for sale. I'm in escrow on a new house and I know I will need a little more cash flow and something that doesn't chow down on the gas. Full list of mods in my sig (:poke: ). Still have stock intake and...

    Knock, knock. What is it?!

    Within the past week, I've heard a very dull knock coming from the rear end. I can only hear it at very low rpm, and it's a short series of 2-3 knocks. When I'm backing out of a parking spot, going over a speed bump at an angle, or turning at very low speeds (5mph or less), I hear the noise...

    K&N problems

    My future brother in-law just recently placed a brand new cone K&N on his 03 F150 for his first mod ever. He has 50k miles on his truck and he told me that it ran fine for about a week or so, but then it started to sputter and bog down a bit, moreso at lower RPMs and that he also got the CEL...

    I swear it was yellow!

    First of all, I live in San Diego, so any feedback from LEOs or fellow ticket recipients would be greatly appreciated. Got pulled over this morning and cited for "Red light" (71453(U)), meaning I "ran" a red light. The officer stated that I sped up :burnout: to get through the light, when on...

    Anyone interested in a free stock exhaust off of my 04L?? THe guy I bought the L from threw in the stock exhaust as sort of a "package deal" and it's just in the way sitting in my garage. He said that he immediately swapped out the stock exhaust when he got the L new, so there should be very...

    BMW 650i

    So I'm heading down to the gas station and I have this brand new, dealer tagged, 650i zip up on me. Middle-aged dude thinking he owns the road in his $72,000 car. As luck always has it, next light turns red and we're on the line. He starts to creep up on it a little and I can tell this guy...

    Just got a new set of shoes for the L. Goodyear Eagle all around. Specs on gas door say something like 30 or 32 PSI. Tire shop put them on at about 41/42 PSI. What PSI is everyone running, or should I be running?

    Tune needed?

    I'm thinking of moving to San Antonio, TX in next few months or so. Currently living in San Diego right now. Truck is bone stock besides CAI & exhaust. I know a tune will help me out regardless, but will I need a tune because of the weather variation between SD and SA?

    squeaky belt?

    Sorry if this is a lame question...but for the past week or so when I start up the L, I hear a squeaking noise coming from behind the right front tire. I guess I can most relate the sound to crickets chirping and squeaking. It dies down after getting warm, but every so often, even after warm...

    San Diego trustworthy dealerships for my L???

    Does anyone have any recommendations of a ford dealer in San Diego that they have had a good experience bringing their SVT to for just basic maintenance and warranty work? I've heard so many horror stories about SVT owners getting their vehicles back from the dealer not in the condition they...

    Vacum gauge w/ a life of its own

    I think I saw a post on this a while back, but I need some suggestions for my situation...please. The truck runs great, no problems there. It is completely stock (at least that's what I was told when I bought it) besides the catback & CAI. When I shut the truck off the vacum needle creeps...

    (another) newbie

    Hi all...I've been a proud owner of an 04 silver L for a little over a month now. During that time, I've been hooked on reading everything in the Gen2 forum. I know it's been said by all of the other newbies, but this website is awesome, and I know I will be taking advantage of all the...
