    2018 Limited Leather Seat wear

    Thanks, I've founds some replacements on eBay. Pretty expensive though for what they are, but everything is... Thanks again.

    2018 Limited Leather Seat wear

    2018 Expedition Limited MAX Driver seat is completely torn and worn from normal use at 74,000 miles. The material they used for the center panel on the seat base is complete garbage. The right rear seat has done the same thing, but that is where the dog has been sitting for 3-4 years. Now...

    WiFi Hotspot operation

    ^^ I think you may be right, but I think this is also running the hot spot. Everything I look up with Wifi or Hotspot points to the Telematics Control Unit (TCU).

    WiFi Hotspot operation

    Also found this. You can get to it by removing the center console. Maybe you can back power it directly when the vehicle is off.

    WiFi Hotspot operation

    @Edistobob Check this out. Looks like a 5 Amp Fuse 17. Not sure if that is the interior fuse box or the one in the engine bay. See if it has 12V when the vehicle is off, this diagram states it is "Hot at all times". If that is true, we are going to have to keep digging.

    WiFi Hotspot operation

    I'm wondering if you could back power it through the fuse panel. Find the correct fuse and connect a 12V source, like a jumper pack. That may power just the hot spot and leave the rest of the vehicle off. Might need the wiring schematics to find the correct fuse(s) that would need power. If...

    Calibrations Available from 5 Star

    I've got to ask then, have they tested this on an actual 2018 Expedition? Maybe they have done direct tuning and are having problems getting the tune through third party hardware...

    Calibrations Available from 5 Star

    I also had 5* on my 2011 F-150. It made a huge difference to the point I was afraid of breaking something with the 93 performance tune.

    AC Question

    I've noticed that if the Expedition sits for more than about 18 hours, when we go to use it, it takes about 3-4 minutes for the AC to start blowing anything but HOT air. We are in Houston, its 100 degrees, and it literally blows hair dryer air for the first 3-4 minutes, while we are driving...

    Tuning software available from 5 star

    You have a good point about the same engine producing more power in the Navigator. The Raptor is another example of the motor making 450hp. It would be interesting to see what internals if any are different in the variations of this motor. Then of course you have the Ford GT, another V6 twin...

    Tuning software available from 5 star

    I think I would either wait on this for a while, or give 5 star a call to see what they actually did that is specific to the Expedition (like had one on the dyno). I went through the description and see nothing specific to the Expedition, in fact it talks about the F150 6.2L V8. Not to say...

    Anyone know what these "eyes " do ?

    When you exit the vehicle, you have the choice between all sensors, or proximity sensors only for the alarm system. If you select all sensors, or leave that selected, those motion detectors are armed. If they sense any movement, they cause the horn to go off repeatedly. I.E. leave your dog in...

    Lane Keeping PSA

    Learned a bit about the lane keeping / lane departure warning system that I would like to share. Recently I took our 2018 Limited back to the dealer because I was convinced that the system was not working properly. The system has three settings; Alert, Aid, or Aid and Alert. I have ours set...
