    2019 Exp; Rear Window washer nozzle and hoses.

    I believe one line goes to a little water spritzer located on the rear camera housing. I have one on my 2019 FX4 but don't know if it is a package or standard on the gen 4 Expys. I think it activates when you hit the rear wiper spritzer but not sure as I havent had the truck in reverse when...

    Best aftermarket floor mats?

    Sorry.....for years I was a Weathertech customer....but than tried Husky and found they are just as good, same quality, actually cover the area under the pedals better....and are around 30% cheaper.

    Liqui Molly?

    Just use a good quality, proper viscosity oil along with a good (Motorcraft) filter. No additional stuff needed....nothing "Magical" required. For info, I recently purchased a 2019 with 112,000 miles on it and have towed our 7000 lb travel trailer over 2500 miles already....using just...

    2015 turbo whistle noise, and revs hesitation/drops - looses power. no codes

    Not on my Expedition, but on my previous 2021 Ranger I had a similar power loss and sound. Dealer traced it back to the factory blow-off valve that went bad. Stayed open not allowing boost to build up. May be different on your Expy but something to look at. Also could be something as simple...

    Feeling defeated

    My post indicated that they could deny a claim if there was a modification in relation to the problem.....like oversize tires, or a lift, or spacers and the problem was with the suspension or the running gear. Example being oversize tires having a effect on the rear end, the axle bearings, the...

    Feeling defeated

    To any that are even thinking about an aftermarket warranty, remember....your vehicle must remain totally stock, right down to the tire size, no add on electronics that tap into other circuits, no intake/exhaust. blow off valves, ect. Every modification you make gives the company an automatic...

    Feeling defeated

    There are so many loopholes and procedures that owners must follow and when you sign a contract you are agreeing to their policies. You must maintain the vehicle to manufacturers requirements, keep records and receipts for work done for maintaince. \Any modification will usually void the...

    Running hotter than id like

    I have a Scan Gauge lll. Reads trans and coolant temps and many others.....mpg, fuel used, head temps, boost, rpm, speed, lot's of others. To me the most important are the trans and coolant temps.

    Running hotter than id like

    Sounds like the thermostat is bad, and possibly coolant is old (it does degrade). Are you the original owner or did you buy it used ? If original than you should have a record of the maintaince you've done. If used than as a matter of maintaince you should have a new thermostat and flush done...

    Interior window fog

    You never want to use Windex or any glass cleaner with ammonia in it....over time it will degrade the tinting on the windows. The Sprayway is good commercial stuff, and you can use Invisible Glass Cleaner which you can find at any auto parts store, or WalMart.....no ammonia and won't hurt any...

    Best Abrasive way to remove bug guts from front bumper

    This may sound weird, but try Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom Cleaner....the regular stuff in the spray can. Trick used by many rv'ers to remove bugs/guts. In shade just spray directly onto front of your Expy and let it sit for several minutes, 5 or so. It will loosen the dried guts after which...

Not just E Bay, but private companies that bought up all these and more years ago.....lots out there. Even used book stores that sell/specialize...

    Rain shield for computer

    I would think it would be easy to find a plastic storage container of the approx size and make something more permanent.....like the storage containers you find in the Dollar store or in a grocery store. Would be easy to cut one to make a proper cover.....

    WeatherTech for Tremor

    Look at Lasfit Floor liners. They list 2025-2026 Ford Expedition fitment....for both the Expy and Expy Max. Also, 3W Auto Life has listings for the 2025-2026 Expy.

    Fords anti sway from the menu

    Its basically a computer controlled system....when the system detects the trailer beginning to sway, the computer directs individual brakeing to selected wheels to slow/stop the sway. I had it on my previous 2021 Ranger and my 2019 current Expy has it. When towing our travel trailer I have not...

    Just replace the drain bolt with a Fumoto Drain Valve and you will never have to experience a stripped bolt/threaded hole again !!!

    Replacement Bolts

    Check East Coast Bolts or Dorman.....but, you need to know the size/thread of what you need. They carry the hardware, but no cross ref. as to size of a particular fitment.

    Heated and cooled seats

    If you want better then drop your speed to around 45 mph, run with your Expy empty, on flat ground, using premium fuel. Thats pretty much how manufacturers.....Ford, comes up with their proposed mpg on the window sticker. Its an average over a closed 10 mile roadway with speeds from around 80...

    No, it won't die while driving.....but it may start at your home when you run to the store.....and not start at the store. They can go that quick.

    Batt warning

    These AGM batteries tend to go pretty quick. You may start to see certain functions not working properly in an attempt to save battery power. But when it does go it will go all at once....it may last a week and then again, it may leave you stranded the next time your out shopping..... 4 years...
