Asked by Coretta Jan 24, 2015 at 08:43 AM about the 2008 Mercury Milan V6 Premier

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I smell eggs when I am driving my car. I used to get 427 miles to empty when I fill up now I get 350. It sometimes has a slight jerk when driving. My check engine light came on so I got an oil change and a day later it went off. What kind of home remedies can I do instead of replacing the catalytic converter?

AC question for 2007 Merc Milan, short trips AC blows cold, longer trips 1-2 hours AC works great for a while, the stops blowing cold and blows hot. If I cut the unit completely off, still driving, in 15-20 minutes, turn unit back on to AC, bingo, works great again for 1-2 hours. Of course, when taken to Mercury Dealer, they can't find a problem, it's working great, "if it anit broke we cant fix it". Yep, I know. Only does this on 1-2 hour trips. Help !
