    I recently went from a 2010 Navigator to a 2015 Expedition limited with the Sony setup. Just curious if anyone knows what the actual difference is between the two systems? I understand the head unit is different (obviously) but in the end, how much is really different? I am referring...

    upper engine rattle along with P0022, P0341, and P0346

    My 2010 Navigator has 210,000 miles on it. For the past 2k miles, it has developed a rattle after the engine has been warmed up for some time and I am strolling around at slow speed, or around idle operation. I suspected it to be the cam phasers. It sounds like a diesel and shakes the car...

    Just curious if anyone has ever been able to get your android device (phone, tablet, etc) to work with the overhead dvd screen? I will be taking a trip in a few weeks and thought it might be nice to stream some Netflix or various video from my phone onto that screen. Thanks

    I smell fumes when A/C or Auto temp is set

    I noticed back in the summer that if I was running my A/C that I would get this strange smell. It wasn't a mold or milder smell. It smelled like a band aid. But it wasn't a subtle smell either. It is bad enough to almost give you a headache. I live in Michigan and the outside temp has gone...

    Need new front brakes on my 07 - what do you recommend?

    My front rotors are warped and so within the next month I plan on purchasing new rotors and pads. What do you guys recommend? I have seen some information on Powerstop. However, I see different part numbers and not sure which is best? I do an occasional tow but nothing too heavy. Thanks

    Low engine temperature

    I have been dealing with a rather low engine temperature on my 2007 for some time now. It sits around 1/4 when warm and sometimes fluctuates. So tonight I decided to replace the thermostat. Thought this would fix my problem but it didn't. So now this brings me to my next possible issue...

    Well the fuel pump went out in my 2004 the other day. I know this because its sitting at a shop and they diagnosed it to be that. They want just under $800 for a new pump, filter, and install. I told them I would give them a pump because they wanted $408 for the pump. I am not sure what...
