I'll post my DTC's when I get to work tomorrow. I left my paperwork that had those on it at work Friday. Yeah my HP should be up there now. My mechanic loves my car and doesn't mind that I Mod it. After I pitched a *itch my dealer takes care of me now. Thanks for all of your help. I told them about the TSB on the struts so they should be ordering everything now. Can't wait to take this thing to the track. It rained last Friday so maybe I will make it this Friday. I'm going to hold off on putting the Steeda UD's back on for now. I may buy the SHM UD's for safety. My mechanic said they had a new PCM flash in my new computer. I think I overwrote it though when I re-flashed it with the xcalibrator. SCT said as soon as they get the new flash from Ford they would come out with a new tune using it as a base. I did notice that the new stock tune had a lot more get up and go.

Later

Casper,
Newbie here. Thanks for the info on this TSB, I have just recently noticed the popping (just once so far) on my 05. With these TSBs I'm wondering how many are out there on my 03 Ford Escape now. Will do some research. Anyway, your help is appreciated.

Casper,

In another post it was stated that Ford has now cancelled the TSB on the poping struts:

Have you heard anything about this?

Thanks for all of your help here. You are a great guy and a great resource!

just got back from having this TSB done on both the driver and passenger sides...

even though this may be premature, i think we may have a winner. car feels tight, no popping at all, steering is smooooth.

Ditto! at <1500 miles.

I also have a wicked case of 1500-1600RPM harmonic vibration. It stinks! But I sometimes try to hummmm with it...

Uh oh... I was hoping to avoid this. Guess I should listen for it sometime in the next 500 - 1000 miles.
