    2006 mpg

    That's about right, maybe a bit low for summer time. If your not babying it, then I suspect it's pretty darn normal. There nice suvs, but bad on gas.

    Had this problem with mine also. Did basic troubleshooting, but gave up as it became cost prohibitive.

    Might be the end of the road...damn

    Hey guys, So over the last few weeks I've noticed a slight drop in my 2003 expeditions (eddie bauer) brake fluid. Truck currently has 141K and runs good, but has it's share of problems. I will list them below at the end of this post. So I climbed under the truck and found the brake lines are...

    Rear subwoofer

    I went though a lot of trouble trying to use the stock sub and discovered it was much easier to just run a new wire to a powered sub. The factory stuff is super weak and even if you got a 12 to fit, you would need a real amp for it too work like it should. Stock amp is less them 40 watts.

    Need Help! Im so confused.

    Low fluid, need friction modifier or old clutch packs. I Would start by changing the fluid, pretty cheap and easy and a good chance of solving your problem.

    Weird leak near front differential

    Well guys, this is sort of a weird one. Last week i noticed there was oil on te bottom of my front differential. I jacked it up, got under there and saw gear oil by coating the diff. from the cover towards the pinion bearing/seal. I needed to change the oil anyway, so I drained the oil, cleaned...

    Common '03 5.4L oil leak locations

    Did you do the repair or take it in? I have a similar leak, how hard is it to fix? Or if you took it in, was it an expensive repair?

    Expeditions

    welcome to the board! There is a lot of info in the old threads if your willing to sift though them. I recall one that pointed out areas to look for when buying a 2nd gen. Probably quite a few pages back by now, but worth looking for. Good luck and enjoy the expe search!

    Strange behavior

    Check the fuse box (lower pass side), evidentially many have had to be replaced on these year expeditions.

I guess ill stop worrying...

    How tempermental is the 4R70W

    ***Preface- I was going to post this in the transmission section, but then thought since this post is not technical and more about opinion and or common belief I figured this section was most appropriate. So I've own a 2003 expedition for almost two years now. We have had some problems as...

    2003 triton 5.4 loud noise

    I agree. Most likely a pulley that needs replacing. I would follow the advice given above and then once you have verified it is a pulley, replace all the pulleys and belt in one repair. If you buy the parts online (rockauto) it is pretty cheap and good insurance to avoid being stuck on the side...
