Hello fourth generation friends. Thank you for all your participation. You’ve helped me keep my expedition and TopForm as I’m about to round 100,000 miles in two years.
Oh, after getting the phasers done on the guy that had the oil leak and then discovered that there is a new and upgraded valve cover. Five months later, and I am still waiting for the valve covers to come in.
My dealer acknowledged the heating pipe problem and has run across it in about 1/3 of the cam phaser vehicles he has done. He has gone to bat with the regional service people and is replacing them without the hundred dollar deductible if you have the extended service plan. he does recommend replacing the hose connection if and when you do get the cam phasers done, but he has only run across leaks and 1/3 of the jobs they have done.
Again, thank you for this forum and for your participation please keep these threads alive as you come across other cam phaser related issues.
Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, and a happy new year to you all bob
