    My mostly unbiased comparison - Expy vs. a week in a Grand Wagoneer

    I held off buying an expedition for years waiting for the Wagoneer to come out. Circumstances put me into the ford before jeep could get their crap together. I really do like my expedition but if both were out when I purchased I would have bought the Jeep. When we had to get our second...

    Order XLT vs Limited 7k Help

    For what it is worth. I liked my xlt better than my platinum... I also liked the xlt with bilsteins WAY better than the CCD when it comes to towing. The leather is nice and a little easier to clean with the kids and dog but that alone wouldn't be a deal killer for me. The power running boards...

    I did two things to seriously mitigate the delayed shift from gear 4 to 3

    I have a delay in 3-4 and 7-8, maybe I should try this before going to the dealer to see if clearing the learned data helps. Is the OBDlink MX+ the best bet? Just curious if there are cheaper ones that work fine. I have a different obd Bluetooth module that I use on my jeep but it doesn't work...

    Moving on....

    I also believe that if we had all the numbers, the percentage of issues probably isn't as high as the forum makes it out to be. All I am saying is I think there are issues with all the brands and moving to something else is probably just moving to different problems. Heck, my 2007 jeep has 230k+...

    Moving on....

    I honestly don't know exactly, I am also not much of a chevy guy. I believe it was more of an issue in the first ones out, this guy at work got one of the first ones and around the year mark he said the engine was done and GM took it back and gave him a new gas one since they couldn't fix it...

    Moving on....

    I wish there were good answers to finding good vehicles. Seems like they are all the same. My FIL's highlander has been in the shop more than any vehicle I have seen and the dealer seems incapable of fixing the real problem. A coworker is on his 3rd new suburban. He jumped on the new duramax...

    2h button light up

    Yep, it should be on if you are in 2H. Might I also suggest a Crevice Brush Set ;) (all in jest, I have 5 kids...)

    2h button light up

    You are just talking the little yellow light on the 2h button? That is lit up if you are in 2h, if in 4A the light on the 4A button is lit up.

    Best aftermarket portable DVD system?

    It shouldn't be a problem but I haven't seen any 3 screen portables so you will have to buy two sets to get an extra slave unit. So, you might as well just let the back seat rider have their own system.

    Vibration While Accelerating

    Well, jeeps aren't the only things that have solid axles. But yes, very common on jeeps. However, most new stuff has CV joints or double cardans that are more flexible when it comes to misalignment. So, I agree, if this expedition had been in a wreck or something it very well could have some...

    Vibration While Accelerating

    These aren't like solid axle vehicles, something would have to be way off at either end for there to be a misalignment issue since the transmission and rear diff are fixed in place on these. By way off, I mean more of a noticeable issue that would be seen before a cracked u-joint. Misalignment...

    Rear driveshaft u-joint?

    CCD OR NOT????

    @stockfritz2019 I used the bilstein 5100's at the stock height setting. I really liked them, made a huge difference over stock.

    Rear brake pads and rotors junk at 25K miles.

    I use yellow and green ebc pads on my jeep and they are so freaking dusty. They work great so I deal with it but man they are dusty. I swapped to black wheels so it wouldn't bug me so much.

    Rear brake pads and rotors junk at 25K miles.

    Stock pads? Or aftermarket?

    Cold console

    I haven't noticed this but wish my cup holder kept my drinks cold!

    what is this connected to and how can i use it?

    Correct, now why it would be on a vehicle in Saudi Arabia is a bigger question. I mean it really doesn't get cold enough in Saudi Arabia that I would think anyone would have much need for a block heater.

    22 Expedition Loud and Vibrates.

    Just curious, are you in 2h or 4a. There is def a little extra noise/vibration when in 4a. I can't say I notice anything like you mention but my daily is a lifted jeep on mud tires so the expedition drives like a dream.

    Rear brake pads and rotors junk at 25K miles.

    Once the metal backing plate hits the rotor, the rotor goes to crap really fast. Doesn't take long to really mess it up. The rear pads wearing fast has been a "thing" on every vehicle I have owned since 2007. That is when I first started noticing it. However, it also has been my experience the...

    Flushing brake fluid

    No idea if this works but I have heard go find a gravel road and start slamming the brakes to get the abs to kick in. I know that was the old school method used on jeeps but not sure if it works on the newer abs stuff. I am really starting to think I need to buy a scanner that can do this sort...

    Sync 4A WiFi issue?

    I have a 2020 and mine seems pretty random with connecting to my home wifi and getting updates. I also think my apim is bad/going bad and not sure if that is some of the issue or not. I have an extended warranty and need to try to take it in sometime to have it looked at but it isn't that big of...

    Tire recommendations for 22" w/ CCD?

    The primacy is not great in my experience. Most seem happy with Defender tires. I put on some nitto crosstek 2 and they are fine but I wish I would have moved to a 18" or 20" wheel and done something different in the tire department. I just am not a fan of 22's for my vehicle usage.

    No complaints

    I think people's definitions of "city" can be very different and it's not even worth mentioning what you feel your "city" number is. I have had two expeditions now (2019 and 2020) and mpg is pretty consistent between the two. My "city" driving is primarily short trips, .25 miles to the school...

    OBD 2 port intermittently working with Scan tool

    I have had to bend pins to make better contact but generally I can just jiggle the adapter around and it will make contact enough to work.
