    Problems at the gas pump..

    I've tried shell, HEB (a local brand), and Costco. Costco was the worst. At the others, I could fill up at with the handle half pulled. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Well it is not blowing out gas, the pump just clicks off, so it is not quite the same. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problems at the gas pump..

    Since I bought my 2006 Expedition back a few months ago, filling it with gas has been a challenge. I think the tank is not venting very well as the fuel dispenser pump is shutting off a lot when I go to fill it. Where should I start trouble shooting this problem? Are there any common causes...

    2006 hesitation

    Well I got her back from the shop on Friday, and I'm kinda glad I didn't try to change the plugs myself, as four of the broke coming out. The bad news is this cost me $650 including one new cop. The good news is my hesitation is gone! The mechanic who did the work advised me that in his...

    2006 hesitation

    One more bit of information. The hesitation is worse in hot weather. It doesn't miss a beat in the mornings, but will miss when the weather is over 90. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2006 hesitation

    Ok, I have a 2006 expedition limited with 76k miles on it. Just recently it started to misfire at low rpm's when on overdrive. This most often happens at around 50 mph. It is not throwing any codes (no CEL). From my research, it appears to be either plugs or coils. As far as I know, the...

    App Radio 3 in a '06 with DVD

    mystery harness When putting my dash back together, I came across one plug that I have no idea where it goes. It was in the middle of the console, and I suspect that it may be the harness to the 4x4 switch in the 4x4 models. However, in my experience, I have never seen an extra plug on a...

    App Radio 3 in a '06 with DVD

    Ive been a fan of Pioneers App radio series for the last few years. I installed an App Radio 3 in my previous car, and when I sold it, I pulled it out to put into my Expy. The only real challenge in doing this transplant was figuring out how I was going to get the DVD audio in the the App...

    New spark plugs and air filter! Maintenance weekend coming up!

    It must be going around... I am in the same boat as the rest of you. About two weeks ago I bought an '06 with 75k miles on her. Last week on the freeway I started getting the dreaded 'buck' at 50mph. It has steadily gotten worse over the week. I am about to drop the bucks to order the...

    New to me 2006 limited in South Texas

    Yesterday, I picked up a used 2006 expy limited with only 75k miles on it. I'd been looking for a low mileage large SUV for a few weeks now, and when this one came up on autotrader, I jumped on it. The dealer who had it posted it for sale the same day they got it in on trade. I ended up...
