    Adding remote start to XLT

    If it is anything like the '16, all that is needed is for the dealer to order the remote key fobs with the start button, then program the ECM. Very easy and nothing beats OEM.

    how much oil do you get back when doing oil changes?

    No idea what comes out of any of my vehicles...who cares. Make sure you check the dipstick in between changes and keep in the proper range. 3,000 mile oil changes on all especially the Ecoboost with turbos. Turbos want clean oil for longevity.

    2018 Expedition Noise on acceleration

    Welp,you don't know how it was taken care of the first 30K of its life. A tubo engine you just can't drive hard and shut it off, need to idle for a few to cool it and slow it down before shunting off the engine. Also clean oil is a must. Forget long drain intervals.

    Gorilla Glass for F-150, Fingers Crossed for Expy Too

    Yes it is a luck of the draw I guess. My '16 already has two chips in it on the lower passenger side at 30,000. I'll wait until it is worse and blasted. On my ,01 pickup I went close to 10 years with a chip. On my '06 I bought it with bad glass so changed it the same week. Within a month it had...

    AC outlet on the rear of the console

    For the cost of an OEM you would be better going with the one I listed, a pure sinewave and 300w. I mount it under the passenger seat, wired direct to the battery.

    Gorilla Glass for F-150, Fingers Crossed for Expy Too

    Just had the '04 windshield done last weekend with OEM replacement $0 deductible. Was the factory original and thoroughly sandblasted at about 189,000. After 15 years of zero claims it was due for glass. LOL

    First oil change at 1500 miles for my 2019 Expedition XLT.

    Forced induction either turbo or supercharged always force more fuel into the crankcase. I change engine oil and filter every 3K no matter the platform gas or diesel. The '85 Mustang GT every 2K max. The direct injection engines like the Ecoboost benefit from a catch can as do all emission...

    Oil and Filter time...

    Different years hold either 6 or 7 quarts so check the manual. I use the oil recommended in the owner's manual, also printed on the oil fill cap. My '04 has 180K & the '06 230K on 5-20 Castrol GTX, changed every 3K with a Motorcraft filter. The '16 due to the turbos gets Motorcraft Semi Synth...

    2015 led headlights

    I don't know what is wrong with all your Expys, but my '16, '04 and '06 has wonderful OEM headlights, both low and high beam. If you guys do go aftermarket, please re-aim the headlights correctly so you don't blind the rest of us. Seems like no one does this. And stop running fog lights when...

    Console Lock or Vault for 2017 Expedition

    How much of the internal original console space do you lose if any?
  19. lbv150

    You don't have warped rotors.

    The 500 mile break in or the 5-6 stops etc.....that is so the pads conform to the rotors so at that point on you will have efficient braking. When I change the brakes on our fleet vehicles I always tell the drivers to be extra cautious the first few hundred miles until the new pads seat in.

    Console Lock or Vault for 2017 Expedition

    Perhaps you can modify the console vault by plasma cutting or drilling access for the USB port and for the cable to exit. That would be my choice. I didn't want to loose the console space for storage, my vault is under the rear of the driver's seat on a security cable.

    Off idle hesitation

    I know the '16 is fly by wire and that system sucks (lag) as does any electronic throttle..nothing like good old linkage.

    19 Expy Oil Change & Service

    Walmart, Motorcraft Semi Synth 5-30 and Motorcraft oil filter FL-500. It came from the factory that way.... I change it every 3,000...I don't care what the oil life % is. I paid too much for the truck and don't want to change out a bad turbo....

    Capless Gas Tank logic

    Go and buy a Ford OEM locking gas cap for it. I did the first week I had the '16 truck. A good investment for it. As for additives, I run Marvel Mystery Oil 4oz per 10 gallons of 93 octane.

    Interior door latch handle

    I figured they all made there, the fleybay ones were around $13 so hopefully these are a better build. LOL The pin orientation is noted - thanks again. If you have any other advise on how to change the handle please post it.

    Interior door latch handle

    XLT and satin chrome. Yes I hope the quality is good. The ones I found on fleabay were from China and folks said they fall apart.
