    Replaced Tag Light Bulbs

    Today I replaced my tag light bulbs on my Platinum. It was not fun as the old incandescent bulbs will not come out easily. I tried wrapping them with tape and pulled with everything I had. I ended up having to break the bulbs and pick out the remailing glass with a tiny flathead screwdriver...

    Has anyone had any luck with finding any factory underbody shields yet, since certain model Expeditions only comes with the front one? Mine is a Platinum and only came with the front radiator cover. I ordered the one that was supposed to fit, (JL1Z 7222 C). The front mounts perfectly fine, and...

    LED strip added on front under hood

    I decided to experiment by adding a new light strip on the front, since some new vehicles have it. It was a simple install, as the strip was self-adhesive. I used a fuse tap, to tap into the fuse panel on the passenger side, so when the lights come on and go off, it follows them. The strip was...

    Increased performance after disabling TCM learn.

    I read about disabling the TCM learn feature, using Forscan. I was having some weird shifting issues, so I decided to try it. Now, my vehicle has much more low-end torque, shifts faster and tighter and downshifts instantly when rapid acceleration is needed. It feels like I had custom tuning...

    Huge difference in performance

    I was having issues with my Expedition where it was shifting weird and even sometimes slipping when accelerating from 45mph and above. I was constantly using Forscan and resetting the TCM learning process. The vehicle would run fine with no issues for a month or 2, then go back to the sluggish...

    12 to 16 explosive devices in our vehicles?

    I wanted to share my experience about my new garage floor. I was going to get my garage floor done with the epoxy layered coating. Then I read about HOT tire, where you pull in with hot tires, from a trip, and the tires stick to the floor and pull up the paint. Of course, this doesn't happen a...

    Tint made all the difference

    I'm in Florida, so it gets really hot in the summer and other seasons as well. I was not able to open the moon roof in the daytime because the heat coming in would defeat the A/C. Also the heat coming in from my windshield was also doing the same thing. My black dashboard was untouchable. I...

    VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER

    I'm a long time Ford vehicle owner. I purchased my first Ford in 1969 and have owned more than a dozen since. With that said, I purchased a new Ford Explorer in 2021.
