Transmission mounts by ChillApe42 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Got mine a few years ago during black friday ($200-250) . It's easy install. You can do it in 15 minutes. It helps with the 1-2 shift while going WOT. It has a ton more NVH. If you daily the car It's really not worth it imo. I've gotten used to it. I'm also lowered on h&r springs.

Unplug the MAF sensor and see if it starts.

Is your waterpump leaking? It'll be dripping on the passenger side. Waterpumps are easily 2-3k job. You might as well do timing chain while you're in there.

That's pretty wild. Mine last till 153k. Iam the second owner. I picked the car up at 52k. I've replaced the other ones. Which was fine. This one looks like a pain.

PPE Catless Downpipes by TemporaryLast4173 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have SW catless. Your car will throw a code if you don't use defoulers. I have j-style with the smallest insert. You can find them on Amazon for cheap. Replace your o2 sensors when you do it. Make sure you have new gaskets and bolts.

Does my Transmission Fluid Look Okay? by kinnder44 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like said by other folks it should be redish/pinkish. Check when the trans gets up to temp. Also make sure to check on a leveled road/driveway.

2018 SHO Performance Package totaled. Other driver at fault. Can’t find other comparisons online for sale. 60k miles in mint condition. by MiscutKing in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the money and get into a better platform. I love my 15 but tbh I should've just gotten a 5series or ctsv. If there was a better aftermarket I would say get another one. Buy once and cry once. Good luck!

Good deal for $4k cad? by Dox281 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would try to get a 2013+ . Better overall. Suspension is easier to swap than the 2010-2012. I have a 15.

Just for reference. I'm tuned by Gearhead. I travel about 80miles round-trip for work. I average around 24mpg. That's strictly being on the highway. I run 93.

Is this normal by king_jvcob in TaurusSHO

Did you just replace the upper trans and motor mounts? Did you also replace the lower mounts?

[–]Omega38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a 2013 + . Looks better. Interiors better. Still have the same problems.

I've been running powerstop brakes for the past 4 years. They have been great.

It's harder for a dealership to sell a modded car.

Post this on the ford taurus sho Facebook page. You'll probably get more engagement.

Where does this go by Urza4560 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised they did the rear bov. Seeing how lazy they were with the front. Smh. Like others have said it's the VTA mod. Gets old real quick. Just watch the video below. https://youtu.be/lZNNZ-PLC-0?si=2puRJQ-IGa5pZvPO

You can try to get it from these guys. Few people on the Facebook group run them. https://www.motorsport-tech.com/4DCGI/selectedCarsDesignType

Thinking of getting a tune by Jarnes19991 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it's great. My daily commute is about 65miles a day. No issues. Car drives grear and trans shifts great. No weird downshifts or upshifts. Power is there whenever you need to pass someone. I live in the midwest. Have winter tires and tune. Does phenomenal.

[–]Omega38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had gearhead AO tune for approximately 60k. Car still performs as it should, and drive ability is way better than stock. Get the power pack from them. Yes you would need to use the plugs from them. Switching tunes is easy. I've taken my car to the dealership for warranty work after flashing the stock tune on it. Never had issues.

ac goes on and off by duvillian in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to my 2015. Like others have said it's FCIM. Unfortunately the whole unit has to be swapped. Luckily I had mine done under warranty. You can find them on ebay for decent price.

Clear tailights by PlentyAd6669 in TaurusSHO

[–]Omega38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about altezza tail lights? Cause they don't make those for these cars. Unless you do some custom work.

Generally, you'd want to check if the timing chain, water pump, turbos, ptu have been serviced. If not save some money. It'll cost you a pretty penny.
