    Anyone still have their OEM sway bars stuck in a corner of the shop?

    After a long a torturous relationship, I am finally pulling the plug. When my POS gets back from the dealership I am selling it. I love it. I hate it. I am taking off a lot of the “upgrades” and returning it to as close to OEM as practical, to make it more mainstream marketable. I tossed my...

    Quick question on dash indication for 2H

    When switching from 4A to 2H, the dash displays a “2H” in the lower left corner for about 5 seconds, and then it disappears. I swear that used to stay lit all the time when I was driving in 2H.??!! Am I going crazy? If I am in 4A, it continues to display “4A” the whole time, why is my 2H...

    Longest Service contest.

    I know I may have some stiff competition, but just thought I would see if I’m in the top 5. Currently my Expy has been at the dealer since January 5. So 5 weeks. Service guy told me yesterday, that they gave up on fixing my transmission and have ordered me a new one. Wait time? 3-5 weeks...

    ReadyLift and CCD strut top hats.

    Wondering if anyone that has put the ReadyLift kit on with CCD suspension did it themselves? Pulled the struts off the front this afternoon, and could not get the top hats off. Per the instructions, you have to rotate the top hat 180 degrees to ensure the CCD solenoid is pointing inboard. I...

    That drivetrain shudder you feel? Yeah, it might be something else.

    Having had the transmission main valve body replaced, and IWE actuators replaced, I am probably paranoid about drivetrain issues. (Prior to the valve body replacement my tranny was attempting to downshift to FIRST gear when I punched it on the interstate!) Recent threads about problems with...

    Expy as a dinghy vehicle?

    Considering an RV trip cross country and would like to flat-tow a car behind it. Ideally we’d like to take my wife’s great little RAV4. I did some research on how to setup and tow “dinghy” vehicles. Turns out the majority of modern cars can’t be towed with wheels on the ground...

    2019 Max with a failed air conditioning evaporator coil

    Just FYI, was dropping my 2018 off at the dealership and ran into a guy that was dropping off his 2019 Max for an A/C problem. He started having issues with A/C not getting cold enough a few weeks ago—the dealership didn’t find a problem. Then a short time later he pulled his Weathertech...

    Finding E85, and when you can’t

    Just curious how those running E85 tunes locate ethanol pumps. Also, what if you are on the road and can’t find one?

    Turbo Blow-Off Valve opening

    Has anyone experienced noisy BOV when accelerating? It seems like every time I get in the throttle I’m actuating the BOV. And it is pretty loud. I’ll record it and post later today. I know I’m not going crazy, but this CANNOT be normal, and I surely would have noticed it before if it had been...

    Naviks motion lockout bypass kits

    I am about to pull the trigger on a motion lockout bypass kit. I was wondering if any of you tech savvy guys had any experience with how these perform? I’ll be posting an install thread with pics showing the console and dash dis-assembly process. Supposedly this kit will allow you to operate...

    Water in taillights?!

    Walked out to the truck today and noticed condensation fogging up the inside of both taillights. (It rained yesterday) Ok Ford. You gotta do better than that? :favorites68: This thing is practically brand new! Anyone else experience this on their gen. 4?

    Auto reverse tilt side mirrors.

    Before purchasing my 2018 Platinum I never really looked to see if it had automatic reverse-tilt side mirrors. I figured something as basic as that would just be standard equipment for a 80+ thousand dollar SUV?! Am I missing something?

    Lloyd carpet mats anyone?

    The new truck has the OEM rubber mats that look and feel cheap. I have always upgraded mats soon after purchasing my vehicles. (It is amazing how a set of quality mats can transform a vehicle) This time around I am considering the Lloyd brand Luxe carpet mats, with the blue oval logo. Anyone...

    Massage seats

    Hi forum. New to forum and new Expy owner. My passenger seat lumbar controls don’t work most of the time, and then just when I’m ready to take it in to the dealership it starts working again. Anyone else experience this? Thanks. It’s an ‘18 Platinum
