    Engine Break In and Initial Oil Change

    This link doesn't work for me. Doesn't appear to be a properly-constructed URL. Who was it? There's a guy on you YouTube who goes by The Motor Oil Geek. Used to be an oil expert in a NASCAR shop. His videos dive into additive packages and testing.

    4th Gen - Sync 4 doesn't play Apple Car Play Volume if you switch to Reverse to quickly

    I've moved your thread to the 4th Gen forums. Maybe someone else has seen this and will chime in. Are you connecting via Bluetooth? Have you tried connecting using a cable to see if that makes any difference? When I start my Expedition, I usually wait for Android Auto to connect before I move...

    Welcome to the forum! I went from a 2015 Expedition XLT to a 2023 Durango R/T TnG (same suspension and brakes as the SRT without the big engine) then to a 2024 Expedition Limited Stealth Performance. The Durango was much more fun around corners than either of the Expeditions that bracketed it...

    I've been the FNG before and survived the experience with only minor emotional scars. ;)

    2021 Platinum. 39k Miles. Leaky Shock. ESP Denied

    In your one example, yes. It sucks for you. My experience with Ford vehicles and my local Ford dealer has been good. No major complaints.

    2021 Platinum. 39k Miles. Leaky Shock. ESP Denied

    True MacPherson struts locate the spindle and wheel in relation to the frame or body. The dampers ("shock absorbers") on an Expedition don't do that as there are upper and lower control arms. The fact that the spring and damper are concentric doesn't make them a MacPherson strut. Crappy...

    New here, need advice on 2014 Expy EL possible purchase...and rust

    I had a 2015 Expedition XLT non-EL. Traded it in right at 100,000 miles. Nothing wrong with it...just wanted something new. "Decarbon service" is intended to address the carbon build-up in the intake ports and back of the intake valves. This is common with direct injected engines. On a port...

    R1234YF Refrigerant

    Here's a link to the Wikipedia article for 2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoropropene which is the chemical name for R-1234yf. Yes, the change to R-1234yf seems to be driven by global warming concerns, particularly in Europe. GM started using it in 2010. As of 2022, its estimated that 90% of new vehicles in the...

    2024 forscan

    I think I'd go with one of the recommended adapters, the two OBDLink devices, to avoid potential problems.

    We’d Love Your Input — Help Us Improve the Site!

    I hadn't thought to look for the style setting until you mentioned it. Found a way to set the default in the account preferences. @MADDOG Some of the color choices in the default style result in a blue on dark gray background. Difficult for my eyes to discern. Here's an example:

    Lower radiator hose

    The alternator on my 2002 SSV failed several years ago. When I changed it, I changed the serpentine belt and the upper and lower radiator hoses. I was in the area, so it made sense. Getting the old lower hose off was the worst part of the whole job.

    2024 forscan

    Forscan isn't a piece of hardware. It's software that runs on a Windows x86/x64 computer. To communicate with your vehicle, Forscan needs a link device such as the ones listed on the forscan.org website. The scanner you have is probably just an OBD II scanner. Most OBD II scanners can scan for...

    Need COP bolts 4.6l

    If you have the thread size, McMaster-Carr is a good source of hardware. It won't be cheap, but you can probably get exactly what you want. Alternatively, if there's an Ace Hardware near you, see if they have a selection of hardware. The Ace near me has an aisle of little hardware bins with all...

    '24 ~1500mi review vs my '19

    I went from a 2015 Expedition XLT to a 2023 Dodge Durango R/T to a 2024 Expedition Limited. I'm doing OK with the HVAC controls. I leave it on Auto and pretty much all I do is occasionally change the temperature which I do using voice commands. Mine came with General Grabber tires on the 22"...

    Cam Phaser- Class action- How can we get one started?

    Hire an attorney. Expect that most of any award you get from the suit will go to the attorneys.

    Thinking to get an expedition ssv

    My first Expedition was a retired SSV. It was a 2002 with about 35k on it when I bought it. I sold it at around 125k. No major issues. At that time, SSVs had cloth front seats, vinyl 2nd row seats, and no 3rd row seats. It also had a rubber floor mat and no console. Other than that, it was an...

    2026 Order Guide

    That's not the way I read it. Included in the Standard Package (600A): Then, the Driver's Package (59J) says this: I don't see where it says that power running boards are deleted with the Driver's Package. Maybe I'm reading it wrong.

    Ford videos about Ford Digital Experience as used on the 2025 Expedition

    Deliver your kids to soccer practice, sit in the parking lot in your new Expedition, and take a Teams meeting. Makes sense to me.
