    Does Adjustable headrest exist?

    I would surf eBay for headrests from 2018 or 2019 with matching colors.

    Remanufactured 10R80 Recomendation

    I would not get a reman except from Ford to make sure it has the new updated CDF drum and anodized garbage can (forgot the technical name haha). These parts introduced in 2023-2024. Another option is to rebuild with the new parts. There is a shop in Alabama called Flying Wrenches which is...

    2018 Phaser rattle Dealer suggestions

    Does it also rattle when idling? Or only at a start up? if I were you, I would drive the 3 hrs and take it to Brian, BSG Automotive. People ship their cars from Florida for him to do the work. He has a popular YouTube channel that specializes in Ford.

    2018 Expy Mainenance and Repair

    Hmm, to be honest… if you plan to keep the vehicle for many years, I would do rear differential, transfer case, and transmission fluids. The first two are super easy to DIY and the fluid cost should not exceed $100 if you buy MOTORCRAFT fluid. I would stick with OEM fluids. For transmission...

    Hmm, I thought it was fixed in 21 model. Are you sure it’s the cam phasers??

    Used engine swap-what to look for before install

    You may want to do the cam phasers while the engine is on the stand, but I expect this will add $2k to the cost. They still have to spend a day at least to change them.

    2019 Limited - Cam Phasers

    I have not seen cases showing ford helping after warranty. Ridiculous! Long crank times can help at the beginning, after some time it will rattle while cranking. The deterioration is pretty fast.

    Rear End Failure

    Hey, since you can see things better, is it possible to change the hydraulic pump oil with the diff in the car??

    Transmission downshifting while accelerating onto expressway

    Up to this point I think that there is no hard part failure (since the transmission works normally afterwards). My understanding is that this is due to hydraulic leak(s) within the valve body. Not enough pressure to engage a certain clutch. You may be able to get away with valve body...

    Transfer Case Empty!!!

    What was replaced in the driveline service?? Just ask the dealer to put a used one from LKQ. Will cost $200-400 and there is plenty of them all over eBay and other used parts websites.

    Ultimate Transmission frustration update - ISO opinion, on my 3rd transmission...

    Good that you found the problem! Regarding the misfire, coil failure is not very common on these. But generally spark plugs would need replacement well before 100k miles. Start by replacing the plugs or at least make sure to put new plugs with the new coils.

    Ultimate Transmission frustration update - ISO opinion, on my 3rd transmission...

    Question: - what is the brand of the rebuilt transmission? - how is the engine temperature? If the cooling fans are running high, then I guess the engine is at high temperature too.

    Took my 2020 into dealer last week for….

    Yes valve body can cure some shifting issues. If it keeps showing the symptoms, they will go ahead and rebuild.

    I was thinking to take it to our local machine shop and let them swap the setup
