Heater Core Bust

[SHOsc]

77,000 miles the 2010. Heater Core went out on a trip to Tennessee (go vols) on Friday. Car is still in TN.

2010 Taurus SHO Experience:
Melted Cylinder @ 21k (now have 2011 motor)
Transfer Case @ 45K
Heater Core @ 77k

I still love my sho.

Sounds like a SHO.

Sounds like a SHO.

^ That's not nice Kev. Tell me how many times a transfer case goes out on an SHO?? :laugh_ti:

 

[kevinspann]

Did your transfer case (do they call it a PTU?) leak fluid?

I don't think 2/3 of a drivetrain should be blowing up before 50k...

Nah, no leaking on mine...yet.

^and you're right about that partner.

Ptu did not leak fluid. Just had zero rear wheel power of course. Heater core blew a seam. 8 hour plus job due to having to completely pull front dash area. If the passenger windshield starts to fog badly it's the heater core.

Wow, you'd think they'd have learned about the heater core after the 11 hour book time on the Gen 1 and Gen 2.
