Latest Ford Taurus LX Frequently Asked Questions:
It has 196,000 miles. Does it need a tune up maybe. Any idea what the problem is? The battery is new The check engine light is also on Come to find out my manifold intake is stuck, says it's gonna cost about $1000 dollars to fix
Answer:
I had my car towed to a nearby AAA repair shop to have a motor put in my car but when they told me what it would cost, I nearly passed out. I was ready (reluctantly) to pay about half that. I know it's a big job and I'm willing to pay a fair price. I just think that's over the top. Whadda you Motor Heads think? If that's what it cost, would you put that kinda money in a car that old?
Answer:Sorry to tell you this your car has reached the point of diminishing returns. Any thing you do to this 13 year old unit means you will have to drive it for another four years. How do you like your self in the car. Do you look into the reflection in the store windows? and say I look great in this car? Or who is that cheep sunafabitch! Consider the Taurus a write off and save up a down payment "The engine $3,700" And tow it and trade it take 500 for the taurus toward your down on a new car it is year end sales time act soon! SORRY FOR THE HARSHNESS

I bought this car to drive to work only,and it did'nt come with the manual book. It has a remote entry and separate remote starter. The default combination number is located somewhere under the hood; and I can't program a new number,unless I put in the default number first. (I really need your help)
Answer:If you call a couple of different Ford dealerships I'm sure there would be a salesman or manager who would be willing to help you locate the number. If you want a owners manual you should try EBAY I buy all of my manuals from ebay 5-10bucks should do it. Hope this helps.
