    2018 Expedition a/c reduced cooling and air flow during long drive.

    Mine is now doing it too. Im sure you all have identified the solution, right? Would someone please share it here?

    Powertrain, Occupant, and Body control module errors related?!

    While idling in a parking lot on a 90 degree day in my 2018 Max Plat 4x4 w/HD tow, I noticed my AC stopped blowing cold. I immediately noticed the engine temp had crept up (but not dangerously high) so I checked and realized I was low on coolant (which has never happened before) but stuff like...

    Rear Sway bar?

    I drove the Blue Ridge Parkway early this year and the Elvis pelvis sway at the rear end nearly made everybody sick. I got home to Florida, installed the Hellwig sway bar on my 2018 Max Platinum and a set of Sumos in the rear coils. On this trip back to NC, I drove the Parkway again, it was a...

    Rear Sway bar?

    I was just reading the whole thread—thanks for everybody’s contribution!—and getting ready to order a rear sway bar for mine and HOPE Hellwig got it to me without delay, then I saw your note that you’ve got an extra one to sell. I’m happy to take it off your hands. How much do you want for it?

    2018 Platinum -- Active Noise Control on/off? Fuse?

    Yes, I pulled the fuses and couldn't tell a difference. In fact, I'm seriously wondering if my 2018 Platinum Max even has the system.

    Wilwood TX6R Extreme install

    Hey, I TOTALLY support that! "Because I f*&%ing want to!" is the best, most valid reason you can ever give for modding your truck! Or, at least, that's what I'm trying to convince my wife... LOL

    Wilwood TX6R Extreme install

    Great stuff, thanks for sharing! Why are you doing this swap? Unsatisfied with the performance of the factory set up? Doing a lot of towing and expect these Wilwoods to perform better? Any data to support the expectation?

    2018 Platinum -- Active Noise Control on/off? Fuse?

    True, I’m sure that works. But shouldn’t it be simpler than that? Besides, I don’t have a scanner right now, and this doesn’t seem like “essential business” worth prioritizing. ANC uses the audio system to cancel out the noises, so I’ll just pull the fuse powering the speakers and see if that...

    2018 Platinum -- Active Noise Control on/off? Fuse?

    Does anybody know if there's a way to turn on/off the Enhanced Active Noise Control? (I have a 2018 Platinum Max, if it matters.) I'd like to be able to hear the difference between when the system is "working" and when it's not. The vehicle is plenty quiet, but it doesn't seem to be noticeably...

    Best way to get more power?

    I just took possession of my new (used) 2018 Platinum Max today, and the minute my warranty runs out, I’ll be dropping $2500 and go hunting Mustangs.

    Ready Lift 3-2 kit installed with CCD suspension

    Great thread, I appreciate all the insights. Has anybody tracked their MPG before and after the lift? I’m curious how much lifting the truck changes the aerodynamics, and therefor fuel efficiency. (Let’s be clear—Nobody buys a land yacht like these and expects it to be a Prius, but I drive...

    Hidden Winch Mount for Expy XLT

    I'm installing this same winch plate on my 2007 Expedition EL Limited 4WD and there's a metal cross beam behind the front bumper interfering with the front of the mounting plate (where the fairlead attaches) that's preventing me from moving the winch far enough forward to align the mounting...

    Trailer brake

    I found the plug-in under the dash of my 2007 Limited EL with the towing package, but when I look inside the plug there's only five pins, even though it's shaped for six. Is that normal? Thanks!
