A mechanic and 450 bucks later
There are no spark plug wires since every cylinder has its own coil. (5.4L). Did he replace the coil too? It still seems on the expensive side though. Bob- ExpyBob

piece of crap.
I hate to say it but the 03s especially the older ones and some of the 04s (I owned one of those) were nothing but crap. I have owned 5 Expys and the 07 EL Limited I just bought seems to be the best yet. My 2000 was the best vehicle I ever owned. We'll see how this measures up. 03 and...- ExpyBob

transmission
My 2004 tranny failed at 33000 miles. They had to rebuild the entire thing (note-not replace). My trany did not have a knocking noise, it's not normal. Bob- ExpyBob

Loud grinding noise within seconds of start up 2005 XLT
It's a common thing. My 2004 does it after it sits a while. There is talk about it on other sites. It's got something to do with the lubricant in the AC compressor loading up. If it is this it makes a horrible metallic grunt sound when first starting the engine. If it is air shock related...- ExpyBob

cabin filter
There isn't one on the o3-o5. You only had it on the older models if you paid to have the kit installed.- ExpyBob

front air conditioner not working properly
This sounds like the dreaded blend door problem. The blend door for the cold and hot air may be stuck because the shaft is broken. Very frequent problem as the vehicle ages. You may want to search on it here and at other sites. Bob- ExpyBob

Cabin Air Filter
He's right. If you wanted it you had to have it installed by the dealer. I had two done (1999 and 2000) then just gave up on it with my 2004. Bob- ExpyBob

Join the club. Mine as noises too, in the drivers door. I lube with silicon and it lasts for 4 months or so. This shouldn't be. My 2000 Expy was quiet the day I traded it at 76000 miles. Bob- ExpyBob

2003 expy problems
That's an old rumor created by a product which no longer exists. The dealer recommended and installed them. Read this--- http://www.kleenwheels.com/kleenwheels_faq.htm As you'll see they don't create problems. I've had them the entire time on my 2004 Expy--25,000 miles and there is...- ExpyBob
