Just an observation: Shortly after I purchased my '07 ST, Ford "bumped" (pun intended) the factory warranty from 36,000 miles to 60,000 miles. I've had several transmission issues with mine, including the 1-2 bump problem. All of my repairs, including the 1-2 bump re-program, have been...

I don't doubt what you're saying Lil Red, and thanks for correcting my statement. But the owner's manual, on Page 308, says: "The automatic transmission does not have an underhood transmission fluid dipstick." And it goes on to say: "Transmission fluid should be checked and, if required...

Finally got my ST back and have been driving it for a week or so without any problems. I had dropped it off a few weeks ago on a Monday and the dealer ended up keeping it for nearly two weeks as I got it back late on the following Thursday. As indicated in my earlier posts, I had...

Well it sounds like we all agree that it's a tranny problem and I have to agree that it started when they re-programmed the unit. Yes, it's going back in on Friday of this week. I hope they can straighten it out because the vehicle has been a good one so far and...IT'S PAID FOR!!!! It...

To All: This "surging" begins to occur right after the tranny shifts into 4th Gear at approx 32 MPH. And it keeps on doing it until approx 38 MPH (still in 4th Gear). It does it whether or not the OD is switched on or off. I even tried the cruise control and the engine still surges whether or...

justjimmy: The vehicle has just hit 49,000 miles. I never had a problem with it until they re-programmed the tranny. That's when all of this started.

I've searched the site off and on over the last couple of days but can't seem to find any posts that relate to my problem. I was having the notorious bump issue on my 2007 V-8 automatic tranny. I complained to the service manager at my Ford dealer and he had me bring it in so he could...

For what it's worth, I did a "quickie" research project on cold weather fuel mileage and the conventional wisdom is that fuel mileage drops about 10% in the winter.

I took one of these tests a few years ago. All I can say about it is this: I was totally honest in how I answered the questions and I did NOT get the job!

For what it's worth: I have an '07 V8 ST which I bought new. When I first got the vehicle, I had a hard time adjusting my driving style to the drive-by-wire system. But now that I've had it for three years, I don't seem to have any problem with delays, hesitation etc. So, either the system...

Sorry about the blank posting! I have a 2007 XLT. The stock Michelins were worn out by 25,000 miles or so. I replaced them with stock-size BFG AT's. Best thing I ever did! Ride quality is superb, both in town and on the highway. And they got me through a fairly rough winter with no problems...

The company I work at has pre-employment drug testing, post-accident drug testing, and random drug testing. If you test positive on any of these, without coming forward and admitting it (and asking for help) beforehand, you are fired...forever! I feel the only way for major league baseball...

If you want to try a cheaper way, open up a one-pound can of coffee and let it sit overnight in the enclosed vehicle.

I bought four new tires for my 07 ST from my Ford dealer. Because the mechanic apparently did not know how to handle the TPMS, the installation took two days! Keep in mind this was at a FORD dealership! TPMS issues also "persuaded" me to stick with OEM size tires instead of going to a...

First Feinstein wants my guns, now she wants my cars? Anything she has a hand in stinks in my opinion.

Be it true, false, or just another "urban legend," I enjoyed the story and got a good laugh out of it. And, on my job, I need all the laughs I can get!

I agree with DaveS in regard to Accu-Gage. The only difference between the ones I use and the one pictured in the amazon.com link is that mine have the rubber boot around the OD of the gauge body. Amazon has these as well. I've used these gauges for many years and I've found their accuracy to be...

Do a search for "A Deflating Experience" and you can read about the experience I had with my 2007 ST. I'm sure the lumbar support in your vehicle is different than mine but it's definitely repairable. The repair job performed by my Ford dealer has held out well. Good luck with yours.

Very nice! What did you do about the TPMS issue?
