    2nd gen vibrations

    My 05 Expy developed this vibration which seems to be coming from the front end. It comes into play at about 40-45 mph and goes away at higher speed. This thing has 205,000 miles. I'd like to think its the tires, as they are approaching the end of their usable life. Something else tells me...

    TPMS stuff

    My 05 Expy Limited has been throwing me the message that I have a Tire pressure fault. Is there a sure fire way to determine which one it is? My Expy only tells me that there is a low tire, not the location. Thanks for any info.

    New Expy Timberline

    Is there anyplace on the forum that is keeping tabs on the Expedition Timberline due for 2022? From photo's I've seen, its not looking too bad. In my opinion, it could use more lift and lockers all the way around, and get rid of at least one of them moon roofs.

    TPMS stuff

    Hello, my 05 Expy is back at it. Right after I replaced the tranny cooling lines! The message displayed says Tire Pressure Monitor System fault (or something to that affect), and the tire icon flashes 18 times before it stops, or I cancel it out. Any way of determining which tire sensor is...

    Transmission or other cooler..

    Hello, My 2005 Expedition, with nearly 200K miles, has sprung a seep. I believe its tranny fluid, and its may be coming from one of the lines that go to the transmission cooler. The location of the leak/seep, is right under the radiator area. I had not traced the lines back to their origins...

    Brakes pull 05 Expy

    I noticed the other day, during a hard brake from 60 mph, that the ole Expy wanted to dart off to the right. That would normally tell me right front caliper issue, or the lack of left front not working. Another thing I noticed during a regular brake, is a pulsating during braking, and maybe in...

    Advice for aging 05 Expy

    Hey all, my 05 Expy is going to try and let me down, if I don't start helping it. It only has 185K miles, but a list of rather major concerns. Its starting the 5.4 rattle...camshaft phasers, so I'm figuring of doing the timing set thang. A/C took a dump on me 2 years ago. The mechanic said...

    05 Expy 4x4 High light flash

    I was 99.9% sure I posted something on this before, but cannot find it. Anyway, my 05 Expy, with 174K miles, started to have the 4x4 high light flash when I have the 4x4 set in Auto. So I checked it a little further today. The light flashes 8 times, waits 1min. 45 sec., then flashes another 8...

    Rear sway bar link replacement

    I was noticing a rattle from under the rear of my 05 Expy the other day. Crawled under not really find anything wrong, except the rear sway bars seemed lose. When I say lose, they don't flop around, don't appear to be worn, but I can move them around. Is that they way they should be? Thought...

My 05 Expy has the right side of the radiator support rusting away pretty good at the bottom where she sits on the frame rail. Has anyone done their own replacement of this?

    Hello all, I have an 05 Expy, about 2yrs ago, I replaced all my COP's. A few weeks ago, while hauling a trailer, I got down in the 40-45 mph range (about 1200 rpm's area), when I noticed a couple "kicks" or drops of power. At first I thought it was the road, but when on a good smooth...
