    Crazy Rattling Noise Coming from Rear Window

    Yeah, mine was/is a broken mount for the wiper motor. It snapped once and a buddy of mine welded it for me, I think the other part of the mount snapped now.

    Gas Cap= better mileage

    Just a local auto parts store. My impala was a 79. Nothin to brag about.

    Electrical gremlins

    I had/have the same issue with 2000 EB. When I first got it, during any hardcore rain storms, the blower would kick on when the car was off. I had the windshield pressure tested by 2 different companies, neither one found a leak. BUT, I had rust on my fuse box. It still does it every now and...

    Home Depot or Lowe's?

    For all you military guys out there, thank you for all you've done. Here's a little bit of info for you. Depot offers a military discount, best part is, the maximum discount limit is 500. Any other 10% discount has a max of 200. My father is ex coast guard, and my brother is active in the Navy...

    That doesn't sound normal to me. Can't say I've ever heard that before, either.

    Air-Ride Suspension

    I believe there is a way to adjust the rear, but you're not gonna get the results your lookin for, not without a lift kit.

    Service Codes Rough Running/Idling

    Check the o2 sensors, but also, since it gets a little better, I'm thinking a vacuum leak, too. Check the hose for the pcv valve, if that's good, search toward the rear of the block for another leak. It sounds REAL similar to a problem I had. Without the o2 sensors.

    Does it get better at all as the engine gets to normal operating temperature?

    XLT to Eddie Bauer

    I agree. It really depends on what options you are looking for. I'd stay away from any of the electrical options. If you're wantin to go to leather seats and all, check the places the other guys said first. And if all else fails, last I checked it wasn't too expensive to have an auto upholstery...

    manifold back exhaust

    Probably the heat shield. Just get under there with any kind of pry bar, tin snip, tire iron, etc, and rip it off. I had to remove one of mine that was banging around under there. Did the same thing to my Explorer. Wait till it cools off, climb under and do investigate.

    Gas Cap= better mileage

    Hey, ten bucks. Worth a shot. Bad cap will let fumes escape. I drove my old Impala for a week one time without a gas cap, (ohio e-check pressure tested it and forgot to put it back on!), and it was the fastest tank I ever burned.

    Gas Cap= better mileage

    Just wanted to give you all a heads up, was struggling a little bit trying to figure out why my mileage was lower than it was when I bought my expy, and it finally dawned on me. I know my gas cap was the original from when I bought it, may even have been the original cap, period. Anyway, new gas...

    Accident.

    Agreed. I believe damages have to total a percentage of what the value is. Could have been worse. What would have it been like in a sedan? Glad your safe.

    Trailing Arms, Yak'em!

    I was on 3rd shift when it happened, apparently I must have been half asleep because I don't recall telling the shop to fix it. I found a set on ebay for 200 for BOTH arms. The next day the shop called and said it was ready. They put Ford's on it. 179 i think for each one.

    Opinions Welcome

    Alright everyone, sorry it took so long to post a decent picture of my ride. Right now she's 10 years old, and pushin 143K. I get a lot of compliments on her and most of them are that they can't believe it's a 2000. I've had a couple people offer to buy her off me, too. I'd like to know what you...

    2000 expedition runs rough at times, then runs great!

    See if you can get the CEL to come on and have your local auto parts store throw a scan tool on it. See what kind of codes they can pull and post the results for us.

    Trailing Arms, Yak'em!

    The parking lot at wally-world. Feb 14th, 2010. My single a$$ went up to get some butt napkins cause I was runnin low, (what else is a single guy to do on Valentines day?). Got back in the truck, started it, gunned it out of the parking lot and that's when all hell broke loose. I swear I saw a...
