Scheduled Maintenace LTC by rwdfan

Hey folks, as you know I purchased a '03 LTC about a week ago and so far so good with the car....it has now 76,800 miles. I went through the factory maintenance books and it was not clear for me the required mileage for the following oil changes: transmission and rear differential ? Is it 100K miles ? Should I do it ASAP ? Mercur V is the recommended oil for the transmission, do you agree ? Thanks. Any other fluid that I'm forgetting ?

Re: Transmission - Visual inspection and sniff test of the oil on the dipstick would be at least my task. If the car "shudders" while accelerating mildly, change it.
 
Re: Rear axle - Visual inspection and sniff test of the oil on your little finger after you remove it from the filler hole.
 
Determine who serviced the car in the past and inquire of them what was done.
 
If unknown,& at that mileage, I would change all fluids including the engine coolant.
What price - peace of mind? While on the hoist, should tires be rotated as well?

Hello, I had the same thing happen to my 2004 TC just this week - did you get any help on this? Do you have a sun roof?

In retrieving small objects, I've had success in using the shop vacuum to suck them out of the area. You may have to pack a rag around the nozzle for a tight seal, but the object will be out of there & you can retrieve it from the cannister.

If you purchased the Extended Service Plan,the converter may be covered. Based on the age and mileage of the car, more than likely, it is not covered. Why do you believe that the converter is not functioning properly?

I have no extended Service Plan. A weired noise coming from underneath the car, have checked exhausts and they are secured and with the voice, like GRRRRRRRR, I suspect that something might be broken in catlic converter.

99 LTC Gas filler - will only take gas at a trickle. by gseterry

Went down the filler neck with a 30" Bore-A-Scope and cant find anything blocking the way. Filler neck pipe is straight and no kinks or damage. Gas tank vent tube to top of filler pipe, just behind the safety trap door, also clear - open - no kinks or damage.
Note for the car to take gas at the above mentioned TRICKLE, you have to put the gas nozzle in from the 2 to 3 o'clock position. Installed it normally (6 o'clock) and you can't even get a couple seconds of TRICKLE flow in there.
Desperate for answers......
