    2017 Expedition EL Limited constant bluetooth disconnection/reconnection

    I often forget to turn the volume down when an album ends. So naturally when the connection is lost, it starts up with the last station preset.....which may have been loud! The phone stays connected for the most part, but the media player -- not so much.

    2017 Expedition EL Limited constant bluetooth disconnection/reconnection

    Hello everyone! I've been noticing an issue with bluetooth on my 2017 Expedition EL Limited. When not in active use (not streaming anything from my phone), I'll notice the system disconnect and quickly reconnect to the phone portion of my phone, but will not reconnect to the media device. It...

    Real world MPG results

    I have a 2017 Expedition Limited EL with a 32 gallon tank. I get about 16 miles per gallon on the highway...much less around town with constant stopping and going. On a full tank, the computer reports that I have about 523 miles to empty.

    Got the Official Notice

    My blower has gone out countless times and I keep having to jiggle the wiring harness. They did deem it a fire hazard as it can set the interior on fire (says so in the recall letter)...so sooner than later would be my advice.

    2017 Expy, front vent mode motor clicking

    Hello all, I have a 2017 Expedition EL Limited which started clicking the other day on startup. If you cycle through the blower output locations (defrost, front vent, floor, etc) it stops, but when set to front vents it just clicks away and won't stop. I know about what part is broken, but I...

    No CD player.?..Why?

    I can just echo what others have mentioned. Rip it at a lossless format AIFF(mac)/WAV(mac/windows) (general format compatiblity). Figure 10 megabytes per minute, so a 68 minute CD is going to take up 680 megabytes or just about 2/3 of one gig. So on a 128 gig flash drive, you could, store 191...

    Console Gun Safes

    Never leave a firearm locked in a vehicle. This is how criminals obtain them. I carry mine concealed everywhere. In the malls, in the banks, in the theaters, in restaurants, in baggage claim in airports (is not part of a secure checkpoint). I do not carry them in police stations or court...

    So! What’s a 2000 Eddie Bauer 4x4 worth in this market? :)

    I have a 2004 Eddie Bauer that I'm looking to get rid of. I was going to go around $4500-$5000 range despite dealers with the exact year/model/color/trim on their lots for $8,900. It's definitely not worth $8,900. If you put too high of a price on it, you'll know because you won't be getting...

    Regular vs. Max

    Max all the way. I have the EL version of the 2017 in a Limited configuration. While it's 15.5 inches larger than my 2004 Expedition Eddie Bauer, it's TOTALLY worth the extra space. I hate to use mine for my business of hauling materials from hardware stores to my rental properties, but I...

    Just dont know how much more!

    Bad wiring jobs exist everywhere. We own lots of real estate for long term hold residential rentals. The amount of “I’ll wire that up for a case of beer” I find in these houses is unbelievable. There may be a few right ways to do a job, but there are loads of wrong ways…and sadly, we seem to be...

    Well, that explains a lot…. Get a carfax

    I have a 2004 Expedition with 111,000 miles. I might put a few thousand miles a year on it. Not everyone drives a lot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    2017 EL Limited, water in doors (safe to leave the plugs out?)

    I’m not really sure of the decision from their engineering team. I’d rather have dust than a rusted out door. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Was driving today and noticed the wind noise from the poor weather strips. I can’t imagine how a four year old vehicle has such poor quality insulation. My wife’s 2013 Avalon...

    2017 EL Limited, water in doors (safe to leave the plugs out?)

    I found the solution from reading some older posts on the forum and pulled the plugs but never got a general consensus on leaving the eight plugs out (two on each door). I heard the sloshing sound and pretty much ignored it for a while. I didn't get any water out when I pulled them, I think...

    Installed Mirror Sequential Turn Signals

    That's a very nice modification. One thing I've wondered about doing is changing out the blind spot monitor LED with a much brighter one. I can easily see the one in my wife's Toyota Avalon in my periphery, but my 2017 Expedition I have to be looking in that general direction. Looks like from...

    Vibrating noise at low RPM (2017 Expy EL Limited)

    The 2017 has 36,777 miles as shown in the video. My 2004 Expedition Eddie Bauer does have the issue in the rear as you mentioned. It has 111,000 miles. I have yet to address both vehicles...so much going on.
