    CCD Leaking - Replacement Cost Reality Check

    I'm a bit late here but Varsity Ford sells the shocks and most OEM parts cheaper than other dealers. I've been ordering from them and the shipping fee is cheaper than local. Also I've been finding all Ford dealerships seem to charge an hour or more extra in time than what the technical manual...

    Looking to buy '19 Platinumn

    You know, Mullinax Ford is where I just bought the 19 platinum with 144,000 miles on it. The only problem that I could initially see was there was a power issue when we did the test. Apparently it was a turbo problem and they replaced that before we bought it. I had them do some checking, and...

    Miles comparison

    I was wondering if anyone is willing to share how many miles they have and what major issues they’ve had? Anyone over 100k or even 200k?

    Trans problem

    Good day all, I’m looking at picking up a 2019 platinum with 145,000 miles. It’s at a Ford dealership I actually like and have worked with for a few years. During the test drive, it was hesitating on shifting and getting up to speed, although the engine in RPMs felt fine. Then it threw a...

    Taking bets - lets see who wins armchair diagnosis!

    I had a similar issue in the past. On a different engine, the 5.4. Ford could not figure out what was going on, I did a whole Lotta research. I’ve replaced the VCT solenoids and was told phasers and rest look good. But I actually poured some cleaner into the oil, ran it for a good while, then...

    Looking to buy '19 Platinumn

    I found a 2019 Platinum 4x4, 144k miles for $27k. I'm considering getting it. Going through the carfax, it seems it had it's transmission replaced or worked on at 102k miles. It also had it's cat converter replaced at 120k miles. It's the weekend, but I'm planning on talking to the Ford...

    Radio upgrade options?

    Hi! I’ve a 2009 Eddie Bauer with 6 disc changer, sync included. Rear radio controls too. I want to change it to navigation and keep the built in microphone and steering wheel controls if possible. Is there a decent aftermarket that will work or a ford upgrade option?

    2009 fix or sell?

    Hello everyone! I am in love with the expeditions. My family has had them since they basically came out. Currently I’ve inherited a 2009 Eddie Bauer 165k miles that has a couple of different issues, and I’ve been told multiple things by different mechanics. I’m at the point where I’m trying to...

    Camshaft phasers

    Paul, I just had something similar and the alternator testing like you did, was inconclusive. However, after replacing the alternator I haven't had any problems in a couple of weeks now. Fingers crossed still. Apparently, the alternator was just on it's start of going out and causing a slight...

    ‘09 tire difference

    I have an 09 Eddie Bauer EL. From what I can see online I’m supposed to have 255/55/18 tires. Currently I have 275/65/18 on all 4 wheels. I need to replace the front 2 (back 2 seem to be replaced before I acquired the vehicle). So my question is, should I stick to what is currently on it...

    09 5.4 Camshaft code error

    Randomly, once every few drives, while I am idling and idles rough. If I give it a little bit of gas, the problem goes away. This has been ongoing for sometime. It keeps throwing two camshaft error codes. I’ve had it checked over by two shops, and they tell me they can’t find anything wrong...
