Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum. I have a 2008 Expedition Limited. I bought it new in August of 2008 and currently have about 6500 miles on the odometer. Recently, I've noticed a buzzing noise that happens only when I downshift and only from 4th to 3rd, and when the truck is at a certain speed. I have a theory that when the downshift occurs at that certain speed, it creates some sort of harmonic that causes something metallic underneath the vehicle to vibrate for a second.
I'm trying to figure out what piece could be vibrating. Has anyone noticed anything similar in their Expedition?
Also, I live in NYC and get terrible mileage. I average around 8mpg in the city. I drove down with the family to Florida (in fact, I'm still here in Clearwater) and get anywhere from 16.5 to 17.3 mpg on the HWY. I read a thread where some owners average about 400 miles or more per tank. I was wondering what I could do to improve mileage?
