    Is there a procedure for changing tpms id's on a 2023 Expy limite

    I couldn't believe it but had to purchase the below tool to trigger the new sensors for the body module to accept it. My 2018’s tire pressure sensors went bad, the batteries died. I purchased the sensors new from the Ford dealer and not matter what I did, I could not get the body module to...

    2018 Expedition Intermittent Low Oil Pressure Warning

    Can you un screw the sender and install a mechanical gauge to check oil pressure? That would rule out a mechanical versus an electrical problem. The Gen 2 Ecoboost engines do have a variable oil pump. Below 1400 the pump is in low flow / low pressure mode to save drag and fuel. There’s a wiring...

    Transmission cooling-can it be improved?

    All the GM vehicles I’ve driven with the same 10r80 and fluid run at 140 degrees trans temp all day long. I’ve seen maybe 155 heavy towing with friends trucks. They’re using an air to fluid cooler in front of the vehicle. Makes me wonder what GM was seeing and why they went that route.

    Front Differential Oil Baffle

    I’ve set up a lot of rears. If you replaced the bearings, you will have to re shim it with a shim kit.

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    BTW - don't hold the lock button while pressing the circular start button twice. It’s three individual presses of the buttons.

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    This came with my keys. Solid red says that’s the key press sequence to shut the engine. Try pressing to lock button once then the circular remote start twice and it should start.

    Tint

    the window tinter I used put a piece of ceramic tint in front of a heat lamp versus non ceramic and the heat difference was huge. That sold me but would imagine that could also vary by brand of tint.

    Front Differential Oil Baffle

    It’s tough to find a good Parts person. Use Fords website by your vin if it’s the original diff and you’ll see what they see. https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us

    Engine/Tranny Cooling With and Without Skidplates

    I’m the opposite and have a 2018 non FX4 car but added the skid plates and also have the Raptor metal plate under the trans. I didn’t see any rise in temp after adding them but do have the updated 180 Ford T stat.

    "Y" connector blowout

    I recently changed them on my 2018 and “heard” the new hoses were updated. The plastic wyes on the new connectors were exactly the same so good move putting in metal ones. The ends that push into the heater core hoses were different but don’t look any better and just twist to remove looking like...

    Help! No start after heater hose replace

    I just replaced these two heater hoses about a week ago and unplugged the PCM, engine harness ground and associated connectors via the connections above the hoses to make getting to them easier. Is this the way you did it? Is the ground eye lid wire reconnected to the firewall under the 15mm...

    Harsh downshift after rebuild

    The dealer rebuilt my trans when the CDF drum bushing failed. It started to not upshift when accelerating into 5th for the first few miles of driving about 10k after the rebuild. It shifts smooth from 10th down and always did even before the failure. The quality control and parts in these...

    Throttle Body question

    I’ve replaced two or three from NAPA on Ecoboost 3.5 F150’s and never needed to reprogram anything. It will idle a little weird at first and all seemed to relearn their idle after a few miles of driving:

    Brushless Cooling Fan Update for 2020 Expedition MAX Limited?

    Very easy. 3x 8mm screws hold it to the housing. You don’t even have to pull off the hose.

    Brushless Cooling Fan Update for 2020 Expedition MAX Limited?

    I went with the Ford updated 180 degree thermostat. Hers a pic in case you want to try that.

    Ford quietly redesigned the thermostat in 2022...replace it

    My 2018 runs the same temps with the 180 T stat I installed about a year ago. Plenty of heat even when -10 degrees out. The engines coolant on the hot side (T stat engine side) is circulated through a heat exchanger mounted on the trans which cools the trans fluid. Basically, colder the engine...

    Differential Fluids

    Some fluids do have the friction modifier in it like what you used. Not the Ford fluid. It’s still has to be added to help the clutches.

    Here’s the part number for the rear drain plugs that one can be used to fit the front.

    Differential Fluid

    Others also mentioned the front differential only has a fill plug so you have to vacuum out the fluid. It also does not have a magnetic plug while the rear has one at the drain and fill. What I did to add one is to use a little Teflon tape to space it out since the magnetic plug is a bit thicker...

    Differential Fluid

    I changed the diff fluid in mine at 64k and this is what the magnetic drain plugs looked like. For sure, looks to me it was needed to be done much earlier. I went and refilled it with the factory recommended 75w-90 fluid from Ford but next time I’ll be going to the 140 weight oil. I have a max...
