    Need a replacement license shield

    Thanks, Don. That looks like the right one, but I'm not sure if you can paint a chrome piece? Well, 2006 is older than 2008, that's why I'm concerned about it. I need a 2006 piece. Thanks Harry

    Need a replacement license shield

    Don and Dave, I need the piece that goes over the license plate, the thing that holds the lights for the license plate. This thing, only for a 2006. I can't find one older than 2008...

    Need a replacement license shield

    Last night I tried, unsuccessfully, to back my 2006 expdition out of the garage with the lift gate up. The license shield broke off my gate when it hit the garage door.. I've been scouring the internet trying to find a replacement, but I can't locate any. Anyone have any idea where I might...

    Strange scraping noise along with truck shaking

    Looking for some advise, with probably not a lot of information. I was on vacation with my family this last week and on Saturday we heard a strange scraping noise along with the truck shaking a little. It happened about five more times that day, each one getting louder and the shaking harder...

    P0606 and P2198 codes after engine rebuild

    Hi guys, having a couple problems with my Expy. First of all it's a 2006 4WD Eddie Bauer edition. 5.4 3V engine. about 135K miles. I had a post on here earlier where we talked about a misfire in cylinder 4. It kept getting worse and worse, so I went to the extreme and had a local engine...

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    Moose, the shop is AAA Tire and Service at 3870 Kemp Rd, Beavercreek, OH 45431. I've gone to them a long time. Unfortunately I got my Expedition back and it's shaking a lot harder. Almost undrivable. Looks like I'll have to look for different options :-(

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    Yea Moose, that confused me too. But the second garage with better mechanics and better diagnostics figured it out. After having it for almost two weeks and spending untold hours on it, they are just charging me for the oil change they did. That's pretty nice.

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    They did extensive testing and determined that the exhaust valve on cylinder 4 was not seating correctly. Their recommndation was to just drive it as is. The vibration is just slightly noticeble at idle, so shouldn't be a big deal. He said at this time he would not recommend opening the engine...

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    My mechanic traded out the VVT Solenoid and it didn't fix the problem. We talked and he admitted they were stumped, so we all agreed to move my truck to their sister shop that has better diagnostic equipment and more experienced mechanics. I also gave him the link to this forum and he said he...

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    Hi Moose, You are correct, I should have posted about my truck. 2006 Eddie Bauer, 4wd, 5.4. It has about 135K miles. And since mine has been in the shop, I have been reading about the other member's issue. This started a few days ago, just seemed that it would shake more than normal when...

    Misfire in cylinder 4.

    My engine started running a little rough so I took it to my mechanic and he determined that I have a misfire in cylinder 4. So far he has verified that the injector, plug, coil, injector pulse, compression, and coil signal are all good. He says his next step is to put in a new VVT Solenoid. If...

    Windshield wipers/odometer/radio not working

    Hah, I figured it out. Of all things, it was my ignition switch. When things weren't working, my switch was sticking in the "start" position. When it would spring back to the "run" position, everything worked. A little lubrication, and it should be fine. Thanks for the help, I sure...

    Windshield wipers/odometer/radio not working

    Sorry, but which fuse should I pull? My owners guide says that fuse 7 is radio (start signal) and fuse 22 (and relay R02) is for Radio (delayed accessory feed).

    Windshield wipers/odometer/radio not working

    I pulled the dash out and inspected the radio. All the wiring looked good, all still connected solidly. I checked each wire for where the insulation may have been rubbed off, but they all looked good. I even took the time to relocate my ground wire. Put it back together and I still have the...

    Windshield wipers/odometer/radio not working

    Hi Bain, thanks for the help. I bought the radio and a pre-made harness from Crutchfield. All I had to do was plug it in to the expy's existing harness and to the back of the radio. All the connections are crimped together, except for one that I had to make. For it I used two wire nuts and a...

    Windshield wipers/odometer/radio not working

    Hey Guys, thanks in advance for any help you can give me. Periodically, and it seems to be happening more often now, when I start my expy up, the odometer won't come on, the radio won't come on, and the windshield wipers won't work. There may be more, but this is all I notice. So when this...

    Replacing 2nd Row Radio Controls With USB Outlets

    Did you find an inverter that will work to power the rear panel like that? I'd love to do this to my expedition too.

    P0420 code

    I feel your pain, my CEL light came on right after I bought my 2006 Exp. Same thing, catalytic converters and O2 sensors. Cost a pretty penny to fix, but I thought it was worth it. I don't like driving around with the light on. Besides, you never know, something else could trigger the light...

    Stock radio model number

    Is there a way to tell exactly what the model number of my radio is? (other than pulling it out) I've been looking at ebay for a replacement. It seems all the radios have the same look, but a variety of model numbers. Would all of them work? I've developed a nasty grating noise coming from...

    2003 - Folding 2nd row seats flat?

    Wow, great question and great answer. I had no clue my seats would do this. I had to go try it, and it worked! Awesome.

    No Limited Slip Rear End?

    I looked up the build sheet for my expedition today and was surprised to find that it didn't come with a limited slip rear end. No wonder the other wheel wasn't spinning while I was stuck in the mud this weekend. Why in the world would Ford build such a heavy vehicle, even make it a 4wd, and...

    New member from Ohio

    Hey there. Being an avid Boy Scout Leader, I felt the need to buy a vehicle to pull our troop's trailer. Being a ford fan, I looked exclusively at Expeditions. After looking at about 20, I found one that was in decent shape (I thought) at a reasonable price. I am the proud owner of a 2006...
