    2017 Expedition EL XLT radio replacement

    You need something like this to make everything intergrate well https://phoenixautomotiveinc.com/products/px6-six-core-pre-order-12-1-vertical-screen-android-9-fast-boot-navi-radio-for-ford-expedition-2015-2016-2017

    How to align steering wheel?

    OK, that's more detail to go on. Yes, definitely replace the tires first. Wearing tires can definitely affect the alignment as well as hitting a pothole as well.

    How to align steering wheel?

    If the car tracks straight and that wheel is off with no further play, chances are that the last tech that did the alignment did not center the wheel well when doing it. I'd start by going to a shop and telling them your concern so that the tech is focused on getting that right. Otherwise a...

    4A binding on 22 Expedition Timberline

    You should be able to drive 4A anytime you want. The binding is definitely indicative of the center differential locked up and not allowing the drivetrain to freely move. Dealer saying that you shouldn't drive it unless in rain & snow sounds like a cop-out answer or they don't really know what...

    Door Keypad upgrade?

    Interesting, never thought of that. I would assume the constant smudging and swirl marks from constant touching are a thing of the past? That would also kind of be a safety feature too since the keypad doesn't have a securescreen feature (random #'s pressed before the actual code) to deter...

    Rear brake pads worn

    I have a base model XLT, no ADAS systems whatsoever. My rear pads were completely worn down when I replaced them vs. the fronts at about ~80% life. So I don't think anything like AAC or Lane Keeping has any bearing on this symptom. I have heard that the brake system in these trucks are more...

    FORScan programming options

    I changed mine to six flashes. I did mine via the Hexidecimal as-built method. Looking into this again (F-150 forums), looks like you can do it through the comfort mode.

    Icon F150 Tremor for Timberline

    You need to start a build thread of what you got going on! More so, everyone's going to be asking (including myself) what you had to do to make that Ironman front bumper work besides just trimming that front bumper panel.

    Rear Defrost Tab and ESP

    If you have a steady hand at soldering, I would try it yourself. Really isn't a reason everyone getting the glass replaced unless the conductors have somehow suffered excessive damage.

    2018 Max Platinum 4x4 - Maintenance Reccomendations

    You do not gap them, they are pregapped. There's even a warning not to. Most of these newer non-copper plugs are like this these days. You can double check them to ensure that they are close to spec or all even, but due to some of these newer exotic materials used, the spark characteristics...

    Radar Detector Mirror Wiring

    I tried one of those dashcam adapters for my Escort since it's really nice and clean looking, but my RD runs on 12v instead of the USB 5v and didn't work. Went back to the original mirror taps. Just something to keep in mine with those harnesses.

    70mph + vibration

    Another discreet culprit could be the front pinion bearing. I just replaced my front pinion seal due to it leaking with the help of an experienced mech friend of mine. We pulled out the oil slinger and pinion bearing while at it to inspect and all looked good. When we put the nut back on and...

    2018 Max Platinum 4x4 - Maintenance Reccomendations

    Just installed these, went without a hitch. They're working great as far as I can tell. I feel like highway mpg has increased, but don't have enough data to back that up. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=9779924&cc=3440431&pt=7212&jsn=941

    Ford Expedition Shop/Service Manual

    Thanks for the sticky! I've been wondering how to get my hands on a FSM. A few time already I've could've used this.

    2019 Expy XLT halogen to led swap.

    I have the Morimoto 3.0's. I upgraded just before the 4's came out, but they're pretty much the same other than the improved chip mounting area. I had the low beams as DRL's for a short while and had no issues. I'm not sure if I even noticed a flicker. I have since reprogrammed via FORScan...
