[QUOTE="B HARV, post: 1935134, member: 46366"] Bigbanana, so its kind of another long story. I'm not sure I can PM you on this forum until I get more posts (feel free to correct me on that one), but I'm happy to get you the dealer info on the back end. Good news is the new evaporator (was told it is an updated p/n) seems to have done the trick, but keep in mind I've only put 60-75 miles on it since the fix. So here comes the long story... when they hooked back up the coolant line at the firewall (for heater core) the guy didn't connect it correctly. So, when I pulled out of the dealership and onto the highway I only made it about a mile until it popped off and drained ALL the coolant out of the system. Wound up on the side of the highway until I made the service guy drop the loaner I had for the initial service back to me on the side of the road. Not fun on a 100 deg day. Allegedly, Ford deployed a new 'twist-style' connector (different than the old style coolant line connectors they have used for year) for that coolant line at the firewall. Not sure how much BS that is but I'm sure they just didn't connect it correctly and it blew off. [/QUOTE]
