Thanks to you folks that keep this site running and helpful through administration and/or posting valuable content. I traded my 05 4X4 XLT yesterday, but this site was very valuable through the year plus I owned it.

Wife's 2004 Freestar is squealing from the passenger front wheel area. I thought it only made the noise once the wheel had warmed up. I found tonight that if I spin the wheel slowly by hand cold, it makes the high-pitched squeal only in the forward direction...spin a little faster and the...

my factory single disc headunit stopped "recognizing" cds - it would pull them in, but wouldn't eject nor play them. i ran the self-test mode (holding down 3 and 6 buttons in am/fm mode), pushed the 1 button for the diagnostic mode, and then pressed the 2 button to retrieve the codes. the...

2005 4X4 XLT 31K ST has recently started making a soft noise I can hear only while coasting along (no brake, no gas) at about 5mph or less - like a rub, rub, rub...at a regular interval, NOT metalic or clicking, NOT a squeek, sounds like it's coming from the front right. It's there if I'm...

Is there a way to set the interior lights to come on/off with the door ajar switches rather than the ignition/keyless entry system (i.e. I want the interior lights to come on when a door is opened and off when all doors are closed)? I've searched through the factory workshop manual and not...

That was the closest message category I could find, though from what I've read so far, it appears it's easier to swap for a locker if you have the Open rather than LS differential. Has anyone done up a project/write-up on installing a locker such as the Aussie? I'd like to do this mod...

I've tried two different 3/8" filter removal tools (requiring several trips to the Zone), and neither would click the front fuel line connection off the filter - the metal one said one end was 3/8" (OEM brand), but it didn't even close over the filter's end line, the plastic spool that fits over...

Anyone know of a source for the Factory Workshop Manual for an '05 ST on CD or DVD?

I think a few others may have said they might need to do this soon, so I thought I'd just relate my experience...sorry, no pics or project write-up... With Todd Z pointing me in the direction of a project to help me get my rear door panel off w/o breaking stuff...

I need to remove my 05's rear door panel. I don't have the shop manuals. Can anyone with the discs provide the applicable pages?...would be much appreciated. thanks

Can anyone tell me how tough a job it would be to get the rear door apart and replace a power lock actuator in a '05 XLT?

Probably about every fourth operation of my door locks, by either the key fob or the driver's door lock button, my driver's side passenger door lock makes a strange, short, low-pitched electronic buzz sound and doesn't unlock (when all three other doors have unlocked). It only seems to happen...

I did a quick search to try to avoid a repeat post, but didn't find anything... What have folks done to try to repair gouges/scratches in the plastic bed?...e.g. epoxy? My motorcycle kickstand put a minor scrape in my bed yesterday...not really anything to worry about, but I'm anticipating...

Ordered my OEM x-bars and hitch through Eric (does he moonlight as one of Car Talk's Tappet brothers?) with Wall's. Friendly service, beat everyone else's price, items shipped quickly and in good shape - what else can you ask for?

Hi...new member...been lurking for a bit and enjoying the site/boards. Bought my '05 XLT 4X4 used and the site's already helped me get my keypad code w/o having to shell out $ at the dealer - thanks. Is anyone using the Hidden Hitch 70670 Class III on their ST? If so, any opinions...
