| Intermittent coolant leak - 09 Ford Taurus SEL | 17Relevance | 5 years ago | Jeebus1083 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hey Scotty, My friend drives a 2009 Ford taurus SEL roughly 270,000 miles. He has intermittent coolant leaks, usually when the car is sitting idle, and the car overheats. Other mechanics and the Ford dealership have tested the system, checked the hoses and sensors out, and even replaced a thermostat for him, and they can’t pinpoint the issue. What would you suggest short of suggesting junking the car? | |||||

| Those 3.0 V6's were great engines. I had several. I still have a 2001 ranger with one. The only thing about them is they don't tolerate overheating at all. The head gasket is the weakest part on those. I had a taurus with a leaking head gasket. I drove it that way for years. (kept a gallon of antifreeze and a gallon of water in the trunk). If yours overheated (coolant loss) and you didn't find a leaking hose, radiator, or heater core then where did the coolant go? Anyway, maybe change the plugs. Before you do, crank it real shortly. (maybe 2 seconds) See ... | |||||

| I assume this is enough; The Big Three Americans have questionable quality (even back then) and the transmissions are weak on these. I wouldn't buy one for more than $1500, good money can get you a good car, like a Toyota Camry. | |||||

| Avoid the Ford taurus especially with the 3.5L NA Duratec (or Cyclone) V6 and the 3.5L Ecoboost V6. They both had the water pump located behind the timing chain cover and the water pump was driven by a timing chain, so if the water pump leaked then worst case it could take out the whole engine. It was a poor design decision by Ford. Even if you caught a leaking water pump in time, you’d still be dealing with a partial engine removal just to change the water pump which would easily run in the thousands of dollars. See below: also applies to the Ecoboost ... | |||||

| 2013 Ford Taurus E-brake Locked Up | 17Relevance | 5 years ago | stphnl329 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hello Scotty, My parents bought a 2013 Ford taurus a few years back from a mechanic. The car now has over 200k km on it now and when they parked it today there was a snapping sound on the e-brake, and the pedal went loose. When they pressed down on the e-brake again, it engaged, but the e-brake pedal is now stuck down on the floor with the e-brake engaged. Is there any way for me to manually disengage the parking brake, or do I need to get it towed to a mechanic? Thanks Scotty | |||||

| You should look for a different vehicle If you do decide to get the taurus, here are some things to keep in mind: The transmission will fail right after 100k miles The suspension will fall apart The engine will make weird sounds You will have AC issues If you are fine with all this, then sure why not. If you don't like spending $10,000 in repairs on a lawn ornament, Run Away Please! | |||||
