In a manual transmission, being stuck in reverse could be due to clutch and/transmission failures. You can try moving the vehicle slightly and/or manipulating the shift mechanism right on the transmission case. That may only provide a temporary solution, though,...

The first thing you need to do is to disconnect and clean battery clamps and posts. Then check engine main ground cable to see if you are losing ground or connection through battery clamps. You are getting big voltage drop...

The interchange, and answer to your question, depends on exactly how your column was originally set up, that is is there an overdrive switch, tilt function and so forth? All of these possibilities are cataloged at Car-Part.com and you can...

Hi there. To be honest, this would require you to replace not only fabricate new motor mount brackets, but completely swap out engine, transmission, drive shaft components. The V-12 is a much longer block so everything behind it would also...

Hello. This is a common issue in the 7.3 Liter Ford Diesels. There is something called an ICP (Injection Control Pressure) sensor (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/injector-control-pressure-sensor-replacement) which is located at the front of the motor on the driver's side near the fuel filter....

Hello there, having faults within the first 5000 miles is not uncommon. This is the time where any faults from the factory will show themselves. It is entirely possible that through the manufacturing process, a piece of metal worn off...

Diagnosing smoking issues on a Turbo Diesel is really difficult to do remotely. However, if it's white smoke that is coming out upon early start up, it's commonly due to an over rich situation with a turbo, or in worse...

Hello there. It sounds like there may be a few things going on. The noise could be a number of things, such as the belt idler, engine misfire, injectors (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/fuel-injector-replacement), engine mechanical damage, or the turbo. A rattling noise is...

Hello there. The type of issues you have described are not uncommon with the newer F series diesel trucks. The technical service bulletins (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-use-a-technical-service-bulletin-by-parker-hill) are put out as a way to get vehicles repaired properly once a common failure point...
