  1. Considering having my 2010 Expedition AC replaced, but not sure it's worth it. Does anyone have one and does your AC cool the kids well in the third row? Ours works well up front (when it works) but the kids sweat in the back seat.
  2. I . GOOFED . BADLY . 2015 Taurus Limited, 3.5L. Doing the 100,000mi radiator flush (no chemicals and in the dark of night) and all online advice said the drain was on the driver’s side. All I can find is a hex plug (never seen one like that). So I turn it until I hear a hiss and small drip. Odd… I make sure I had the cap off the fill tank, then come back and give it a quick spin. A gush of vapor and fluid hits my arm and I REACT as if badly burned. Fumble…. and …throw…the wrench… then realized its actually COLD COLD COLD!!! 1 second later I realize my mistake and eventually fumble the wrench back in and tighten up the drain plug ….. for the condenser….SMH. I head gas balancing out in the system after I tightened the plug. Finished the flush but now I got a bigger problem. I lost quite a bit of gas and the catch pan had an ounce or two of green fluid (I’m guessing the oil). I know I’m banned from AC for a while so Ill either run full blast heat (HI) or turn the climate control off until I can get this fixed. I don’t know how much refrigerant I lost and how much was actually compressor oil. I have done my own AC work on cheap vehicles with success (AC PRO + Oil), but this is my “nicest” car ever so I don’t want to damage or goof up anything else. Obviously no air got in the system, but I’m definitely low on something. I have not turned the AC on to see if it’s cold or not. 1 Is it safe to drive as long as I don’t use the AC? 2 Is it safe to use the heat on HI? 3 Would much lubricant be in the condenser or was that green fluid just liquid state R134a that had not evaporated yet? 40degress F ambient temperature. Car was pointing steeply downhill and had been off from AC use for about 45 minutes. 4 I understand the AC cycle, am an engineer, but also understand I don’t have the tools to measure what I actually have left vs what I need (1.43lb R134a + 5.2oz oil per manual ). If the green fluid was just liquid state R-134a I should be able to just use a can of AC PRO. It was 40-45F outside. 5 Should I just eat the cost and take it to the dealership or a local shop? I’m guessing they would drain it and start over so they know what is in it.
  3. I have a 2011 F150 Ecoboost and i keep having the problem of a saturated passenger floor carpet. I start to smell a musty and mildew smell and that is how i know that it is wet again. Each time i have to pull up the carpet and dry it out to prevent mildew from growing and making the cab of the truck stink. The first time i pulled up the carpet i found the tape covering one of the drain holes had come off. I thought this has been the problem so i got aluminum tape and sealed that hole. But the wet carpet has come back. I have since continued to read about what the cause of this could be. I had read that there could be a clogged A/C drain and water from the condensation is dumping inside the cab on the passenger side or leaking back through the firewall. Does this sound feasible? If so how do i clear the drain so it drains like it is supposed to. I have read of installing a 90 degree elbow extension to get the drain farther from the firewall and to ensure it drains down. I have climbed in under and around the engine and i have been unable to find where the A/C drain comes through the firewall and into the engine compartment. Can anyone offer any solutions or help? Does this happen to anyone else?
  4. I have a 2005 F150, my ac stopped working suddenly. It was running good and stop blowing air, screen works, check fuse, relay and pull blower out and test it and it did work. Compressor engage when ac is turn on. Drop truck at local shop, they told me they cant find the problem, they send me to dealership.Anybody out there had the same problem? Thank You
