    steering wheel vibration over 120km speed

    Steering wheel shake is 99% chance front wheel balance. Feeling it in the seat would be rear wheel balance issues. Not just any shop can balance these rims so shop wisely...I know from experience. If you will note there aren't any weights visible on the outside. My '16 is smooth up to where I...

    10W30?

    No. Run what is recommended, the cam phasers and solenoids will thank you. Improper grade and infrequent oil changes kill these engines.

    Transmission will NOT stop leaking.

    Following this as I have a 1989 F350 with a C6 doing the exact same thing. I like the idea of TC drain back.....I'm thinking maybe out the vent or the O ring on the speedometer cable to case has a leak. But yes mine is dry for a few days as well.

    3.5L EcoBoost Engine Lube

    Every 3,000 miles with MotorCraft Synth blend and filter. Turbos are hard on oil, you should see how dark and smells of fuel the oil is at 3K....

    What and how do you keep it in your Expy?

    Worst place for a fire extinguisher is outside, like locking a firearm in the trunk when you may need it. Best would be where a trapped driver could reach it. Our state police have a installed system in each vehicle where they just pull an over head chain for fire suppression in the event of a...

    Any '15 - 17 owners had problems with LSPI?

    Well close to 40K on my '16 and it only received Shell Premium it's whole life so far. I am very pleased with the performance and it is very fun to drive, almost as fun as my '85 Must GT. It blows away other vehicles that dare to try me.

    Any '15 - 17 owners had problems with LSPI?

    No, because I run the recommended 93 octane, never ever ran anything lower in my'16.

    JLT 3.0 install 2019 MAX

    I have silicone on the O ring and don't screw it tight. I only tighten it just to make a seal where the can just gets snug on the O ring and I stop.

    OEM glass or "dealer glass"?

    I always ask for and get OEM glass (dealer glass?) yes the glass for my 2001 just came through a Ford dealer nothing wrong with it. I'm sure if it was a second class part it would be listed as such. Safelite provides and installs the glass with zero deductible on the insurance.

    Can a fuel pump go bad after Expedition sitting for 6 months?

    Also check for bad fuel and change the fuel filter. Basics first. Ethanol gasoline goes bad quick it hot humid climates.

    Spark plugs and ignition coil problem - 2004 EB 5.4L

    Someone sure gave you a royal screwing, hope you at least got a kiss with that. I had one break off in a 3V 2006 and it was an extra $200 to remove the plug. My 2V 2004 puked a plug and stripped the head and it was $300 for the labor including changing all the plugs and installing a new head...

    Spark plugs and ignition coil problem - 2004 EB 5.4L

    183,000 on original plugs??? Holy crap only 83,000 way past due. I sure would have liked to see those old plugs. As others have said only replace with OEM and only if and when one goes bad. I had #7 loosen up and it took the threads on the head with it... at about 80,000 on the second set of...

    Following these posts....clearly most don't understand how a PCV system works. If it is bone dry then some thing is not right with the can installation

    Pulls right when braking

    NO! Don't go the cheap hose route as that is part of the problem, only OEM hoses. I had the same issues on my '06.
