    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    I live in the Northeast so I was very nervous about changing the thermostat of the car for similar reasons. I have to say the car gets up to temperature just as quickly. I was also worried about losing HVAC heat output but that proved to be unfounded. I can't really speak to the oil operating...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    So, I just wanted to tell you that I ended up pulling the trigger on a GearHead tune. I've been driving it for a couple of months and it absolutely changed the driving dynamics of the car. He even applied the "normal" tune to "Sport mode" so that now I get the better suspension settings but it...

    How to find TCM Strategy # and others

    Hello, I am taking the plunge and tuning my Expy thanks to BP 09’s info. I am filling out the gearhead form and they are asking for the TCM Stategy #, Vehicle Strategy #, and MAP Sensor. I’m assuming the MAP Sensor will be stock. I assumed if I plugged in the SCT X4, it would pull from my...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    I have, though not necessarily in that instance. It's usually in the 1st to 3rd gear jump. It's always low speed. It's usually when I'm first pulling out of the parking lot at work or from the garage in the morning. It's usually very brief. Thank you so much! This explanation makes a lot...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    This is exactly what I experience. I tried remote starting the car this morning for about 30 seconds and it seemed to be better. The truck behaved better the whole morning if driving around too. Very interesting. Yes, I’ve learned to time that shift delay. In this case it’s once you’re...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    Hi Everyone, I have a 2020 Limited 4x4 sitting right at 62,500 miles. Over the past few months the truck has developed this strange issue. It only happens after the car has sat for a while. The shortest time frame I have noticed it is four hours. I get in the car, start it up, usually idle...

    2025 Expedition details

    Just curious… how do you know this? And when do they close orders for 2024 models? Thanks!

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

    Ok, I’ve been reading the threads where these plugs are mentioned. I have a stock setup with 20k miles on it. I tow a 5,200lb. boat and trailer several times per year. I’m pretty sold on upgrading these plugs. Plus I live in the Northeast so this thing sees the range of temperatures. What is...

    Wipers

    I’ve put silicone wiper blades on my vehicles for decades now. On my last few I’ve been using the PIAA’s. I put them on this car and as always, they are wonderful. The silicone leaves an invisible film on your windshield which promotes water beading. It makes downpours much easier.

    No drill license plate holder for 2020 Limited

    My 20 Ltd came from NC. The dealer in NY that I bought it from (about 3 hours away) did not have a front plate at the time of delivery. After 45 days of waiting for them to mail it to me I took it to the dealer down the road from my work. They had one in stock. I think it cost $50 installed...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    I'll have to give that a try. For me it seems like I notice it more in the 20-35mph range and specifically when the engine is around 2,500-3,250 rpm. I will say this, the power delivery tab on the center screen tells me it's working, even at "steady state" speeds in the range you cited. It...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    Thanks everyone. I suspected it’s normal. There are definitely some differences. Were it not for that coarse feeling, I’d probably prefer this mode. The front wheel engagement really makes the car feel more nimble to me. Ah well, it’s still a nice drive in 2WD. Thanks again for putting my...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    I have a 2020 Limited 4WD with the Heavy Duty Tow Package. It’s been cold and rainy here, so in some conditions traction is not as good. I don’t yet have winter tires on, so I’ve been utilizing 4A mode for extra grip I’m a few situations. Is it normal for the driveline to feel a little more...

    New Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3

    I had the Verde All Season II's on an MDX. They were ok in dry conditions, but I was disappointed. Treadlife was decent, wet traction was ok - not great. Snow traction was mediocre. Road noise was ok. I felt like the tires were a little more squirrels than the OEM's that came with the...

    Anyone with CCD Run a 20” Winter Tire Wheel Set?

    Thanks everyone. With so many weird inventory issues I had to play the game of what could I actually get. The shop I use was able to get the Nokian’s R3’s in 22’s. I was tempted to just swap them on the wheels every season. But I ended up getting a decent deal on Stealth Edition takeoffs - 5...
