    What Have You Done to Your 4th Gen This Week?

    Bought some 2022 18" FX4 takeoffs on Ebay for 620 all in - they were brand new and came with TPMS, which was nice. Took them to Costco and had them install my winter tires BLIZZAK DM-V2 P275/65R18 114R. Still need to do a cut off on the rear so the center caps fit, but other than that pretty...

    How many labor hours dealerships charge to replace 2022/2023 engine thermostat?

    Should be, but aren't. EVs are nowhere near as reliable as ICE vehicles currently. https://nypost.com/2023/11/29/business/electric-vehicles-less-reliable-than-gas-powered-cars-trucks-consumer-reports/

    Aggressive Tune absolutely Destroys 3.5 Ecoboost

    @LokiWolf He did say it had 1000 injectors and was running e85, and the literal name of the tune was "Agressive Tune" hehe

    You should give that Valvetronic a shot :)

    Transmission Cooler for 2018 Expedition/Navigator 4x4

    Yep, and that fits right in with the heat discussion in that article I posted.

    Transmission Cooler for 2018 Expedition/Navigator 4x4

    He's talking about the engine, not the trans. Yes agreed lower engine temp causes more emissions (NOx), and the slower time to regular operating temp from cold start could make a minute mpg difference. Ideally the trans would have a seperate cooling system from the engine but they are tied in...

    Transmission Cooler for 2018 Expedition/Navigator 4x4

    I've never heard that. Mine runs fine at 180 - 190. I have the SPD 180 thermostat. I might switch to the 170 to get the trans a little lower.

    Evap System Mon

    The hard codes, (actually called Permanent codes) can't be cleared with a scan tool. That's what I meant when I said I could not remove them. Only getting those monitors to complete will do it. I've had code readers for 25 years and I do all of my own work as well. I just haven't worked on a...

    Evap System Mon

    Wow, every time I think CA or CARB has reached a new level of unsurpassed idiocy I find I'm wrong again. Thanks for sharing all of that info! I just learned about "permanent" codes last week after I swapped new port injectors in and I left one of the fuel rail electrical connectors was not...

    New Sequoia vs 22+ Expy

    "Titles" of parts are wrong all the time - they get created when the part is first made and they don't update the title as subsequent model years come out. Look at the fitment section on that page and you will see it includes 22/23 models including the Timberline. Now it still might not fit...

    Just out of curiosity, where did this procedure come from?

    New Sequoia vs 22+ Expy

    This lift kit should work for you. I'd call and verify, though. https://www.4wheelparts.com/p/readylift-3-sst-lift-kit-69-2831/_/R-BKMQ-69-2831

    Catch can saga

    Yeah that story stinks. To my knowledge plugged cats don't cause misfires, they mimic low fuel pressure or trans / power issues. Here's an appropriate video from FordTechMakuloco discussing getting ripped off because an auto shop blamed plugged cats, and he talks about symptoms of plugged...
