    Need Advice / Help - Random Bolt found in Transmission Tray when doing fluid / filter change - 2024 Expy Timberline

    So.....This is a preliminary update. Transmission is still under warranty. Took it to the local dealer and got the runaround. I would go as far as to say that they were somewhat hostile and accusatory. They tried to spin it on me and accuse me of doing unnecessary work and, as a result, the...

    Help! Overheating on a Road Trip :/

    I had a similar problem and I posted a thread on this recently (https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/2020-expy-overheating-at-highway-speeds.55007/). The original thermostat part number for the 2020 Expy is HL3Z-8575-AA and apparently, this part has problems with sticking resulting in...

    Coolant system cleaners

    I ran it with the heaters on in the front and back until it was up to temp so that the thermostat would open. About 5 minutes on the highway would ususally do the trick. This would allow everything to circulate and mix well in all areas where the coolant runs. As far as the vacuum...

    2020 Expy Overheating at Highway speeds.

    The part number for the new thermostat was HL3Z-8575-B. A youtube video that I found in the internet is https://youtu.be/S0Kabry6I3M?si=3lGwi_vKNYOg-Qa6. You have to remove the air intake to get access. Whole thing takes about 15-30 minutes.

    OBD 2 port intermittently working with Scan tool

    The scan tool that I have does not have a battery. It is made by BlueDriver and I am sure it gets its power from the OBD port. After you plug the device in, it is supposed to get power from the vehicle and then you can use bluetooth to connect to a phone or other device, open up an app and...

    OBD 2 port intermittently working with Scan tool

    Let me explain better. Normally, when you plug the scan tool in, a blue light comes on indicating there is power to the tool. Then you connect to bluetooth on your device and you can scan the engine or analyze certatin data parameters that are monitored. When I plug my scan tool in, sometimes...

    Coolant system cleaners

    Good point. Only a moderate amount of cloudiness. No rust. Because I am retired and have a ton of time on my hands, I decided to do it anyway becasue I was servicing everything else on my truck including brakejob, brake flush, differential fluids (front and rear), transfer case, transmission...

    OBD 2 port intermittently working with Scan tool

    Hello. Looking for some direction. I have a BlueDriver Scan tool that works in my OBD2 port only intermittently in my 2020 Expy. I have tried everything. Works about 50 percent of the time. No rhyme or reason as to what makes it work or not work. I tried the same scan tool in several...

    Coolant system cleaners

    Are coolant system cleaners needed when flushing coolant system? Are they bad for the gaskets in and around the system? Is it better to do a flush with distilled water until clean, drain the system and then replace new antifreeze?
