I am selling my contour SVT 1999. I am wanting to get 3000 for it. I have had the engine replaced with one that had 85000 miles on it and the entire exhaust system has been replaced. The transmission grinds going into third gear at higher rpm's. If you baby it, it seems to shift fine but I don't...

I just noticed that when I jump in my car and press the clutch in it seems really soft sometimes and also when I'm driving I shift into third and it grinds quite a bit. I've only driven my car like 20 miles the last three months because of this. If I need the whole tranny rebuilt anybody know...

My contour is literally driving me crazy!!! I just got the misfire issue taken care of and now this EGR valve code pops up. I scanned it and deleted it and it came up again. How hard is it to change it out by myself? This car has had more dollars thrown at it then a stripper in Vegas. Oh yeah...

I live in Puyallup, WA that is near Tacoma... you know the town with the giant fair grounds... lol. Anyways, I have been on here for quite some time and was wanting to know if anybody else is from WA or just the NW for that matter. I am in love with my CSVT and wanted to know what everybody else...

I just got my car back today from my local shop and it is all better!!!!!! Happy happy! The code was a p0394 and this is how the mechanic fixed it. He took off the intake manifold and inspected the wiring and then proceeded to look at the plug and wire(just to see if that was damaged at all)...

I'm in need of finding the front passenger side skirt jack point... I think I'm calling it the right thing? It is the piece that looks like a square block. My svt is the t-red color. I was driving one day and the damn thing fell off on the road... I have no clue where it fell off though... lol.

I took my car in and got it scanned. I'm pulling a p0304 code and I don't know of any ways to fix my cylinder 4 misfire. Any body that could help me with addressing the situation would be greatly appreciated. Once this code is done with I think my car will be sold. I've spent too much money...

I have taken my CSVT into Ford three times now and I have yet to get it fixed properly. This car has been fun and a money pit. The CEL will start blinking and then occassionally stop for a minute and start again. This makes me very nervous driving it. I have parked it until I can get some better...

I have been trying to get my CEL off for the last few weeks. I had my shop replace the exhaust manifolds and o2's. The light stayed off for a day or two. Came back on. I had the shop rescan my car and change the bad o2. I was thinking that it might have been fouled up from the exhaust leak. Now...

Thanks you guys for the info. from my last few issues. I rebuild alternators and starters. I was wondering if anybody has been able to put another alternator on the car or if any others will fit that put out more? My Uncle who owns the shop I work for doesn't know of anything but I thought I...

I have a few more codes that are in my computer they are, PO161, PO174, P1401. I think that last one is right. I also have the same PO156 code. Is there just one thing maybe that could be triggering all of these codes to be coming up? My shop swapped out my blown motor a year ago and it sat for...

I just got my car out of the shop and this code is showing up on the scanner. I reset the computer and it is back. My car just got the exhaust manifold/ cats replaced. I also had my shop do the o2 sensors. I bought 2 o2 sensors but when I searched this problem out, I think I might have three...

How would I fix my reverse lockout? I'm tired of not working on my own vehicle.:rockon:

I bought my contour a few years ago and I'm looking for the rear bumper grille or mesh insert. Whatever it is I've been looking for it and need to be pointed in the right direction.:beer:

I think my catalytic converters need to be replaced and I'm wanting to stay with direct fit, OEM, or high flow cats. I need the front and rear ones. Does anybody know of a good company to buy form? I've been looking for a few months now and I'm getting wuite frustrated now driving my beautiful...
