    Engine Covers?

    I took my cover off my 2017 years ago. Of course, I added an oil catch can and needed to remove it. They do hide the rats nest, but I prefer not having them.

    What to do??

    You said that you have 5 kids. Which Expy has the highest payload? A vehicle with all the options will suffer when it comes to how much "stuff" you can shove inside.

    Hybrids Confirmed

    I would love the PHEV. I do a lot of local driving for work, but also tow, go cross country, and off road in my Expy. The PHEV would help to continue having an Expy as my 1-vehicle does it all. (This completely ignores how high the prices have climbed since I bought my 2017....)

    Anybody try both Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S and XLT?

    Has anybody tried both Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S and XLT versions on their Expy? I have around 50k miles on my 4S tires and am getting close to needing another set of tires. I daily drive my Expy. I off road a little. I tow a 7,500# travel trailer. I have loved 4S tires, but was wondering if...

    Towing cylinder 4 misfire

    When towing 45+ mph on state highways and trying to maintain speed going uphill, I get a shuddering and then Cylinder 4 Misfire error. I thought it was related to my oil catch can, so I switched to the premium brand. Same problem, so I switched back to the OEM pcv hose. The problem still...

    towing frustration

    Have you looked at hybrid trailers? Jayco and Rockwood, for example, make 3 bed models with slides. Your likely payload will be exceeded if you are traveling with 8 people + camper. You'll need two vehicles to travel.

    Falken Wilpeak AT3W vs. Cooper AT3 4S

    I replaced the Hankook Dynapro ATMs with Cooper Discoverer AT3s a couple of months ago. In limited towing, I don't really notice a stability difference (P-metrics for both). I have lost about 1/2 mpg, but gained considerable wet and snow traction. I used to get stuck in 4" of wet snow with...

    how to tell when key fob battery is dying?

    I have more of an issue of trying to start the vehicle with the fob in my pocket. I end up having "no key detected" messages every 2-3 months. So, I replace a lot of these batteries.

    Travel Trailer Recommendations.

    I have a 2017 Expy and tow a 2018 Grand Design Imagine 2400BH. The Expy tows and stops just fine, but payload is the biggest challenge. I have just under 1,400#s of payload, so a real world tongue weight of ~850#s, plus hitch, family of 4 + dog, and weight could be an issue. Many people on...

    2017 Expy Window Chrome trim

    if my opinion means anything, i like the look on yours. i think the chrome on my looks odd since it's on the front two windows, but nothing is on the rear glass.

    Home Link / Visor Power problems

    I took out the 3 screws holding the driver's visor this morning and found the wire to be snug and secure. Since I didn't want to probe much deeper into this (I still have warranty coverage), I put the visor back and secured the 3 screws. My 9 year old suggested I try the garage button anyway...

    Home Link / Visor Power problems

    Mine just started being a problem this afternoon. The mirror lights doesn't illuminate and the red led doesn't illuminate when I press the homelink buttons. The owners manual doesn't seem to have any tops. Anybody here have experience on fixing these?

    New Tires - 2018 Platinum

    I just put on Cooper Discoverer AT3s on my 2017. So far, the dry and wet traction is MUCH better than the OEM Hankook ATMs.
