    Pioneer AVIC-Z1

    Is it a speaker or a radio? Crutchfield.com is a good place to check. If it is a speaker the depth on the front doors is less than the rear doors.

    Need help bad...

    First 737 let me say I'm sorry to hear the Ford dealer in your area is not very good to say the least. The one near me is pretty good. With regard to Ford parts sometimes they are more just because they say Ford on them. However don't think that the aftermarket parts are worse, most times...

    Need help bad...

    I had a similar situation on my 99 f-150. I had just replaced the tires at a local tire shop. I had them check the alignment and adjust it if needed. They re-aligned the vehicle and in the process threw the entire thing out of alignment. Which they would have noticed if they had taken it for...

    06 Expy XLT Noises ..

    I had a similar problem with my 03. Had Ford replace all the door seals and drivers side door latches under a TSB. It did wonders for the ratling that was driving me nuts. If you do a search on this site someone had a print out of the TSB I am referring to.

    Cleaning under the hood

    If your going to clean your engine simple green works really well. One benifit is it does not have the fuel smell that gunk is known to have. There are off brand versions of the simple green that work well also. Try not to get the electrical stuff wet. Spray the simple green on the engine...

    Which tires are on your expy?

    I have a 03 Expedition with about 40k on it now. I'm planning on replacing the tires sometime early next year. If your looking for a good tire at a good price give the Bridgestone Dueller A/T Revo a try. When I've replaced the tires on previous trucks I've owned the Dueller is what I've put...

    Windshield washer fluid will not wash.

    I guess have some one activate the pump for you while you are near the pump in the engine compartment. If you cant hear it or feel it run, it could be shot since you said you already checked the fuses. It could be something as simple as a short in a wire also. Check all the hoses to make sure...

    Windshield washer fluid will not wash.

    Last year I had a similar problem on the center sprayer on my 03 xp. It turned out the sprayer had clogged up. I took a very small needle and cleaned out the jet. I has worked good since. Another problem could be the outside temperature. If it gets cold enough sometimes they'll freeze. You...

    Can the governor been taken off?

    I have an 03 xp with the 4.6 V8. The speedometer says it will go to 120. However I'm not stupid enough to see if it will actually do it. I had the truck up to 95 once, that was plenty fast enough for me. If I want to go over 100 mph I'll do it in a sports car. At least they are designed for...

    Door Rattle

    The new speakers are in and they sound a lot better than the stock ones. I would recomend doing it to anyone. I did the speakers myself. I only took a couple of hours to do all four doors. Next mod is to talk the wife into dual pipes.

    Door Rattle

    Well the work is all done and let me say it is a major improvement on the door rattle. After talking with the mechanic at the ford dealer it seems ford realizes that they have a problem. However it is not big enough to do the whole recall thing. The new seals that were installed are wider and...

    interior/door ajar lights always on???

    I did what lakmflx said to do when it happened to my 03. It works. If it doesn't you probably have a bad sensor. For some reason it seems to occur alot on these trucks. Never had the problem on my F-150. Just spray the piss out of all of the doors and the rear hatch.

    Door Rattle

    My factory warranty has experied also. However according to the dealer I go to Ford is paying the repairs because of the TSB. The work is being done today. Hopefully it is better than it was. In a couple of weeks I'll be replacing all of the factory speakers with some new 4-ways I bought on...

    Door Rattle

    Just thought I would get this out to anyone experienceing the same problem. I have a 2003 expedition that I bought back in January of this year. Its a good truck and excellent for hauling the family around. It currently has about 36k on it. Since I got it I have had it into the dealer a...

    My radio reception sucks

    Before going to a new radio I would pull the existing radio unit out to see if the antena wire became unpluged, it can happen occasionally. If you don't know how to take it out search on line for the removal directions. Cruthcfield.com is a good place to go for the directions. If the wire...

    tire pressure

    I can't imagine it changed from a 98 to a 03. On my 03 it is 35 psi.

    Shift indicator on wrong letter.

    On my 99 F-150 the adjusting nut and bracket were broke. They are made out of plastic. I did the zip tie thing on it and it has worked fine since. So far I have not had the problem occur on my 03 Expy.

    in channel window vents

    I have a 2003 XLT with about 35k on it. I put the in channel window vents in about 2 months ago. I am pretty happy with them. The brand I used was EGR. I went with EGR because the tint on them was a little darker than some of the other brands. The vents even seemed to have taken care of a...

    bubbling paint on liftgate?

    Its covered under the 3yr/36K mile warranty. If you notice it after that it is not covered. The 5yr./100k mile corrosion warranty does not cover it. That warranty only covers rust through. And by that time you have bigger problems. I just noticed it on my 03 that only has 30k on it. In...

    lets hear the good things about our expy

    I have owned my 03 Expedition for about three months now and besides a couple of minor problems I really love this truck. It drives and handles great. My son has already named it the "Green Machine" since its green. On weekends my family and I take it every where. My wife really enjoys how...

    Front end hop

    Ditto on the tire balance as well. Another option would be to check the tire pressure. This can cause a wobble/bounce at certain speeds. Also if your in the market for tires I would not put the Goodyears on again. Try the Bridgestone Dueller A/T. They're a much better tire. Price wise...

    2001 4.6 Plug Change

    I would also recommend changing the plug wires. I have a 99 f150 along with my 03 expedition. On my 99 I had the same problem with it running shitty around 90k. I changed the wires at that time because I noticed some of the boots that slip on the spark plugs looked a little worn. After doing...

    03 Expy Rear A/C Clicking Noise

    Have not heard the noise yet on mine. I'll keep an ear open when things warm up this summer.

    shitty gas milage

    I would be doing cart wheels if my gas hog got 19 mpg. However when I bought the pig I wasn't buying it for the mileage. My 03 gets about 15 on good days.

    Altenator and Rattle

    I bought my 03 Expedition XLT in February 2006 from the original owner. I purchased the vehicle because of my growing family and it was evident the previous owner took very good care of it. The vehicle only had 27,500 on it when I bought it. Not a week after I bought it the passenger side...
