    Replace rear glass switch 2018

    How do I replace the switch to rear glass on my 2018 expedition? I can release the glass window with the keyboard. But the button switch does not work. Is it necessary to remove inside trim? Thanks

    We have an explorer with captain chairs in 2nd row no console and expedition with bench 2nd row. We have a large golden. His preference is bench folded flat by far. Can’t get comfortable with gap between the seats.

    Drivetrain growl

    Thanks for responding. Model is xlt 4x4. Unfortunately I’m not able to do what you suggested. Hopefully l will be able to ask more intelligent questions when I take it in.

    Drivetrain growl

    I bought 2018 expedition with hd tow and 3.73 differential 6 months ago 43000 miles. Now noticing a growl or loud hum. Worse at low speeds about 1200 rpm. 10 speed transmission. Otherwise works fine. Plan to have it checked out next week. Any thoughts?

    2nd row captain chairs versus 2nd row split bench with dogs?

    Our 100 pound golden prefers the bench seat in 2018 expedition. He avoids our 2016 explore with middle bucket seats. Won’t even get in that car. You’re a Rottweiler will be met way more comfortable with bench seats.

    Rattle noise when starting

    I have a 2005 expedition Limited with 120 thousand miles. Over the last few months I’ve noticed a rattle sound when I turn the key to start it. The rattling is coming from the engine compartment. It goes away as soon as I let up on the key. I presume it’s related to the starter. It’s been...

    Oil usage 2005 v8

    Thanks for your input. I don’t do my own oil changes anymore. Too damn old. Plus not strong enough to get the oil filter out. My plan is to talk to the mechanic next oil change and possibly replace the PVC valve. My engine only has 115,000 miles but runs good. I don’t want to upset the apple cart.

    Oil usage 2005 v8

    No using recommended 5-30 oil. Synthetic oil seemed to make oil usage worse.

    Oil usage 2005 v8

    Question: is it normal for my 2005 5.7 v8 to use one quart of oil per thousand miles? No visible leaks. Been doing it for a while. 115000 miles. Always used standard recommended oil every 3000-5000 miles.
