2000 VS 2001 Taurus Differences

Basically the title is my question. Are there any major differences between the 2000 & 2001 Ford Taurus? I have a 2001 Ford Taurus factory service manual set but I own a 2000 Ford Taurus. Did they make any major changes in 2001, or are they essentially the same vehicle? Thank in advance for any help.

You should be able to muddle through with your manuals. There aree no major changes in the testings or specifications.

If you have a Duratec the

2000 has Coil On Plug. No spark plug wires

the 01 has a coil pack and spark plug wires.

The 2001 has a larger diameter rotor, and thus different caliper brackets & pads. Many parts suppliers have the caliper bracket part numbers listed as the same. But this is incorrect according to those who have gone to salvage yards to get the parts to do a disc brake conversion.
