    Rear audio controls

    You can't play different audio through the front and rear speakers at the same time. You can play different audio front and rear only if the rear passengers use the headphones. I believe Ford call this "Dual Play Mode" Matt

    2009 Navigation in 2007?

    I dont think it's as easy as swapping out the head unit. The 07-08 NAV units made by Pioneer had an amplifier built into the head unit, then in 09 Ford changed to Clarion units and the amplifier was external. You would need to purchase the amplifier w/ mounting bracket and wiring harness to make...

    Adding heated and cooled seats to my Eddie Bauer

    The heated / cooled seats were an option on the EB's but standard on Limiteds. Do your seats have the smooth leather or the perforated ( little holes ) ? The way the heated / cooled function works is there is a small blower fan under the seat and behind the seat back that blows thru an...

    New to me 2008 EXPY EL Limited

    The seats are the same so you could just remove the middle seat. You will need to get a floor mat that covers the holes in floor. Rumor has it that the holes are in the seat to mount the armrests but I'm not sure about the pin that acts as stopper when the armrest is all the way down. Matt

    Help with Navigation issue for 2007 Ford Expy

    Was the disc new in an unopened package ? If not then you can try cleaning it like a regular CD/DVD disc.... gently wipe from the center straight out to the edge. The discs can and do get dirty over time. Matt

    Help with Navigation issue for 2007 Ford Expy

    So even with the disc out you still get the error on the screen ? My guess would be the burned copy is bad. I would look into buying a real disc even if its a 4P or 6P version. Matt

    Can someone please measure for me?

    FWIW, I just went out and measured mine ( 08 Expy Limited 4x4 Regular Length- Non Air suspension) Front ground to wheel arch 35 3/8" +/- Rear ground to wheel arch 34 3/4" +/- Seems yours might be nose diving quite a bit. Attached pic of rake of mine. Matt

    Thinking about a 2012 limited (not EL)

    According to Ford, the axle ratio makes no difference in the max towing capacity. So a regular length Expy with 3:31's will tow the same as one with 3:73's. Also, the "max" tow capacity is slightly higher with a regular versus an EL. ( 9200 to 8900 ) due to the additional weight of the EL...

    Help with Navigation issue for 2007 Ford Expy

    Where did you get the disc ? Was it a burned copy ? What map version was it ? While the map disc was trying to load did you shut the vehicle off ? Can you get the disc out ? When you pull the fuse for the radio and then plug it back in, can you hear the CD changer part moving the cd's...

    Weathertech Floor mats

    The Weathertech mat for the 3rd row that used for vehicles with 2nd row buckets goes all the way up on the sides. You could always order that one and just notch it for the middle seat. I can post some pics when I get home if interested. Matt

    Thinking about a 2012 limited (not EL)

    Both ones you posted have the HD Tow Package but I would go for the 2010 Expy if it were me, the 07's 5.4 had spark plug issues. Unless you get a 2WD fleet version you can't get limited slip diff. My Expy handles the snow without any issues. With all the Advance Trac technology stuff I dont...

    Cool Start Crimestopper

    My first thought is range. The factory remote doesn't have the best range, maybe 100' or so. Most remote starts have a range of 1000' plus. Matt

    got the transmission replaced, still got the stutter

    Dude, you spent $4800 on a tranny before spending as little as a hundred bucks on a coil ??? No offense but if you bring it to a tranny shop he's not gonna tell you it's not the tranny. Sorry but I think you got screwed. My money would be on the coils and then the plugs. Matt

    Please help me to get this black grille

    Are you looking for just the "black" grille ? Its just a factory grille made by Ford painted to match. Part # 7L1Z-8200-CPTM All over the place on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/6000/i.html?_nkw=7L1Z-8200-CPTM&_dmpt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&_rdc=2 Matt

    2014 North American International Auto Show - Detroit Michigan

    I'm surprised they didn't have a 2015 F150 there. There are pics of it on Ford's website and I would have thought they would have been promoting it at the show. p.s. At first glance I thought that Mustang was a camaro.......:yucky: Matt

    Frankie, the original post was edited after I posted my response. Originally he said the pics were of the 2015 Expy. Matt

    2014 North American International Auto Show - Detroit Michigan

    You do know the power deploying running boards have been around since 2008 on Expys. Nothing new. Where's the pics of the 2015 Expy ? The King Ranch Expy in the photos looks like a 2014. Matt

    Winter tire tpms question.

    They do not automatically get picked up, you would need to program the new sensors. You can buy the Ford programming tool and do it yourself though. For example I just did a quick search on ebay...... New Ford TPMS Sensor Training Tool Tire Pressure Programming Activation | eBay Also, a...

    "No GPS" showing up on Navigation screen

    It has nothing to do with the disc or hard drive, it has to do with the GPS antenna. Check to make sure it is fully plugged in to the radio and there are no metal objects blocking it. p.s. some brands of window tint can cause problems. Matt

    2011 xlt sub harness

    I think finding the harness would be only half your battle. Your radio doesn't have the plug in the back to connect to the sub anyway. So you would need to buy a new radio along with the subwoofer/amp enclosure. Not saying it can't be done, as I did it in my 06 F150, but the harness was the...

    Security issues??

    The Securilock PATS unit is the FORD security feature that recognizes the tiny chip inside the key head and will only allow the vehicle to start if the proper key is recognized. If you had a spare key made, it wont work until its properly programmed to the PATS unit. Matt

    Security issues??

    Sounds like the SecuriLock ( PATS ) unit is faulty. Is that what they replaced ? Matt

    Getting ready to purchase 2010 xlt el, any known issues?

    Hmmm, I've never heard that before, where did you read that ? The rear brakes have been known to wear faster than the fronts. Paint issue seems to be sporatic. Some have had issues others haven't. The year doesn't seem to matter either. Matt
