    Kit Scratch Out

    I'd be reluctant to use a "compound" on anything other than heavily oxidized or marred paint. A good polish (I really like Optimum Polish II) with a random orbital buffer (Porter-Cable 7424) and medium-cut pad will remove light/medium oxidation and light scratches. To really get out all...

    Grease fittings for a 2006 RWD

    Where are the grease nipples for a 2006 RWD Expy? I just picked one up and wanted to give it a lube, but can't find any. I don't have a repair manual to consult. Thanks in advance.

    Cargo area protector

    I think Weather-Tech or Husky make liners that extend forward enough to cover the second row seats.

    Just bought a 2006 Expy EB

    Another photo. It still has a few fine swirl marks left, but I was too beat to spend another hour polishing it.

    Just bought a 2006 Expy EB

    Well, here it is. I had to clean it up a bit before posting a photo. My 2006 EB with 41K on the odometer. I washed it, clay-barred it, polished it (with PC 7424 and Optimum Polish) and waxed (with Collinite Insulator Wax). It's pretty clean with next to no rust.

    Expy newbie!

    I just bought a 2006 Expy with 41K. The exterior is clean an it runs pretty well (about 18.5 mpg where I live- semi-rural). It too has the rough idle you mentioned. I usually shift it to neutral during long traffic red lights and it smooths out. I'm Auto-Rx'ing the engine, tranny and p/s...

    Amsoil Air Filter

    I just bought a 2006 Expy EB. The air filter was filthy and the air box below had a lot of leaves in it. I ordered the Amsoil air filter. I'll post after I install it and see if I get anything in the way of sound/mileage/performance. TO be honest it doesn't really matter as long as it does...

    Does the 2006 Expy have a power steering filter?

    I have the EB version with both the transmission and P/S coolers. I traced the lines to/from the P/S reservoir to the pump to the cooler and back, but no filter. But I did find a nice spot under the front shroud in front of the radiator where I can set up an oil bypass filter with easy...

    Just bought a 2006 Expy EB

    Well, I'm not lying on the mileage. It was what the computer was showing. I'll calculate the difference soon. Granted the trip was open highway 90+% of the time. I could see that city driving would drop the mileage big time with al the stop and go.

    Does the 2006 Expy have a power steering filter?

    NOOB question. I recall reading about a P/S fluid filter needing changing on the Expy. Is there actually one or is that an aftermarket addition? Thanks.

    Just bought a 2006 Expy EB

    Hi: I just brought home a 2006 Expy EB. A central Florida car with 41K. Sweet!!! I needed something larger than my Sienna for boat towing. I'm also impressed with the mileage.The computer showed 22 mpg at 70 mph with the a/c running.

    Looking to buy 2006 Expedition- need some info

    I plan on getting an Expedition and will likely be looking at a late model.One I am considering reportedly has the "towing package" which extra capacity is needed to tow the boat. How do I determine whether this actually has the real towing package versus the standard hitch? Thanks in advance.
