    SSM 47515 - Whine noise Fix?- 2018 Expedition FX4 ? - Ecoboost turbo

    Well so far as 2018 model year is concerned, other than the one recall affecting f-150 and Expedition that was widely reported in the news regarding roll away while in park, this is the only actual recall I could find, and it's a good one!!! Recall Number 18V392000 Recall Date 06/12/2018...

    SSM 47515 - Whine noise Fix?- 2018 Expedition FX4 ? - Ecoboost turbo

    I may be wrong, but I don't recall there being ANY recalls on the 2018 Expedition/Navigator. A handful or so of Technical Service Bulletins, yes. TSB is not a recall. ALL manufacturers have them at some point year in and out, maybe not on every model, and maybe not every single year, (but every...

    SSV

    2018 looks great, hopefully serves the purpose as intended. Same push bumper (brand) as mine, except with emergency lighting. I wonder the age of the unit it replaced, or had that community ever had a vehicle like it, and it's possible capabilities? Considering Jackson County is DEEP in the...

    Garrett CAC Swap from OEM

    Here is a link to 6 somewhat short clips, as promised. I'll add more to this eventually, but at present, I need a break from the computer screen. Overall very happy, with the outcome, I do wish I had recorded a bit more of what I did to make life easier on myself, as I was working from ground...

    Remanufactured Engine

    That "shop rate" is NOT to be confused with the ACTUAL pay rate the employee/mechanic is being paid. Not even close, whether the mechanic is paid hourly or more likely percentage or commission. That rate includes the use of the shop, and all the items the shop has in order to assist the...

    File this under, "how not..."

    Yes, third one down from top, came from Right rear (passenger side) I think I hastily insert it down with extension, and in doing so changed the gap, the electrode has been cooked. I've replaced with SP542 gapped to .026 today, followed by the not so plug and play Garrett intercooler. Running...

    File this under, "how not..."

    Well I had mentioned, I had a gremlin, that reared its head recently. All I can say is, after almost half a century breathing air, I thought I had the whole, "patience and triple check your own work" thing mastered. Sadly I present you with proof positive, I failed myself. Hopefully with new...

    Why is it so hard to find one with bench???

    Have you considered an FX4 Package? Technically it's an XLT, but usually are fairly well optioned out 10 way leather d/p, almost always have the bench 2nd row, in fact I don't think you can get 2nd row captains chairs, unless u start with Limited. If will have 3:73 limited slip and the hi low...

    Tow Package or No?

    What do you mean, the dash portion? I'm trying to understand, because I would NOT think a different dash fascia would be necessary, as whether your vehicle comes with tbc from factory or not, it would seem the dash provision would be the same. Others who've I've read, that retrofitted the tbc...

    Yes, that's what they told me yesterday. Matt is pleased with the difference it's made to his(wife's) Expedition, BUT they've not had time to toss it on the Dyno to document the increases, which kind of worry's me, a weeee bit. My guess is, until they do that, and have actual data, they won't...

    Garrett CAC Swap from OEM

    BTW, they sent it out, "signature required," which I wasn't counting on. I only found that out, when I tracked it, Sunday. Tried to reroute to FedEx office, but it said that it required the shipper to change. Thankfully, sent a message to them through eBay, to which they took care of the...

    I just got off the phone with them, finally, they have a tune for 2018 Expedition written! Yes, I know I just got the JMS stuff, but GH supposedly has superior transmission tuning, at least on the F-150. Once I rectify the mysterious gremlin that occasionally comes around, I'm going to jump on...

    Metal or plastic oil pan?

    I've seen lots of folks, baggin on the OEM skid plates as being flimsy. Better to go aftermarket. My trepidation is using aftermarket plates, might retain more heat, and lead to tranny, or transfer case failures.

    Metal or plastic oil pan?

    I bet it might not be as prone to cracking as the comp pan, if you unfortunately bottom out the pan... I would take a dent in metal, opposed to tow truck cuz my pan cracked or shattered in such an instance.

    Grill compatibility

    Dang...I had kicked around the idea of a 28x40 with scissor joists, and thought it was maybe a bit much, though we live on a postage stamp lot, compared to your place. Good luck, will work for good bourbon, food, both, lol.
