    Belts? Something we can do or not?

    Hey all, Did a quick search in this forum and couldn't find anything easily. Curious, has anyone done a full belt refresh on this engine? Was just under doing an oil change today and notice both belts looked a bit worn. the AC belt is looking badly discolored, and the primary is looking a...

    List of pro's and con's for gen3 usability, interior especially?

    I would love over time to see what folks actually think of this new design, notably the interior. Earlier this year I extended my extended warranty so I'm really not looking to buy for another 1.5-2 yrs probably. But I personally was really let down with the new design. Maybe in practice its...

    What's this terrible noise?

    Welp, I did it. I was literally thinking to myself recently how it's been a couple years now that my expy was pretty reliable. And BAM! Started it up a couple days ago after it sat for a couple hours and whamo, got the attached sound at start up. Honestly it sounds like starting up a cold...

    Vehicle shuts off connected features, your timeline?

    Hey All, Quick question for you. I'm curious if I have one of those all too common but far too hard to troubleshoot mystery battery drains, so let me ask the folks here. For the second time in a row now, while my car sits in a dealer lot waiting for tranny parts, I got the notice that all...

    2025 Navi seriously starting at $102K?

    I'm a little blown away by this. The new 2025 Navi will start at $102K? The 2025 Escalade Luxury starts at $88K, and 2024 Range Rover is $107K. I gotta be honest, while it may be a lot more plush than ours, and it has a god awful massive door to door screen, and it is bigger than the range...

    3.0 and 3.5l performance upgrade

    In response to: https://fordauthority.com/2024/09/2021-2023-ford-f-150-3-5l-v6-ecoboost-performance-upgrade-revealed/ I realize the Expy isn't listed as a target model, but these are practically identical power plants. Any chance this would work for an Expy? I realize that a well done, custom...

    B&O DSP DTC's and speaker placements

    To set the stage - 2019 Expedition Platinum with the B&O 12 speaker (not unleashed). About a year ago, I upgraded part of the stereo to include a sub (in a stock modified enclosure), L2Ci Pro converter and amp using Sounds Good Stereo amp side sub harnesses. Have had almost zero issues except...

    Thoughts on this oil leak... Valve Cover Gasket?

    So I was literally just getting ready to change out my spark plugs and coils, when I went to pull the engine cover off and found this mess. It only appears to be on the drivers side, the passenger side looks completely fine. Any thoughts? Is this likely a bad intake manifold gasket? It's...

    My mostly unbiased comparison - Expy vs. a week in a Grand Wagoneer

    Hi All - I know we often have folks on here that ask for insight into "what's out there besides the expy", and I just wanted to share some recent experience I had. I recently spent about a week in a 2023 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Series II, and wanted to share. First, I want to declare that I've...

    Quick question on vehicle sounds - interior

    Hey all, Curious if anyone has had this happen if so, did you do anything to fix it or did it mysteriously fix itself like it happened? I recently noticed that sounds I'm used to are no longer happening or are happening randomly instead of regularly. A couple examples: - Parking sensor...

    4th Gen - AFE CAI

    Hi all, not sure if anyone want this but I have a 4th Gen AFE cold air intake, all clamps and pieces included. I also have the plastic diverter that needs to go into the turbo intake hose, as well as an extra bottle of filter oil that's brand new. I just decided to go with a different CAI and...

    Would love some folks thoughts on this, regarding oil changes on this engine.

    First, the video. I know this guy and his shop are highly regarded in the Ford automotive world, but something just feels off here. https://youtu.be/eHPSgqipk-E For the last three vehicles including this one, I've been very, very stringent on maintaining my oil change intervals, based on the...

    2019 Backfire issue?

    Hey all, hoping some folks can come up with some good ideas here. Over the last 2 months or so, this issue has crept up virtually every time I fill up. It ONLY happens when I fill up and it happens within one or two minutes after filling up, and within less than a mile of driving. So for...

    Moonroof popping noise - 2019 Platinum

    Hey all, Quick question, as this is becoming more and more of an annoyance for me. More and more often, when I hit certain types of bumps, or even when I do something as simple as drive over the curb pulling into my driveway, i can hear a popping sound that appears to be coming from the...

    Seat belt cover grenade-ed itself.

    I know there's some folks on here that have access to fancy parts and repair manuals. the cover doesn't appear to have a valid part number on it, and after searching several of the Ford parts sites, it almost looks like you have to replace the entire seat belt receiver, which just blows my mind...

    2019 tranny issue - reverse initially unresponsive

    I'm guessing this has something to do with a "feature" but curious if anyone else experiences this. I have a really annoying thing that has happened for years off and on, but it seems to be almost all the time now. I'll set the stage, just about any time I do something like a 3-point u-turn...

    DTC - P068A - Any thoughts?

    Hey All, So here I am again, with my quarterly or monthly issue. A couple days ago, while driving I experienced the lovely P0430, which I've had a few times over the last couple years. Usually, I just plug in either my tuner or my code reader and read the codes, then clear them and keep going...

    Leaking steering rack

    While under my rig today, troubleshooting some noises, I stumbled across the attached image. Sure looks to me like a heavy weight axle grease is making it's way out of the boot, which usually means moisture and dirt are likely getting in. This is the passenger side, the driver side was pretty...

    Rear wiper issues.

    Anyone experience an issue where the rear wiper arm, when turned on at any setting will often stop about half way, make a popping sound and go back to it's resting spot on it's first movement? Of course it's sporadic so getting it to do it at the dealer is going to be fun. But it doesn't...

    Replacing rear bumper trim panel - anyone had to?

    Hi All, So luckily yesterday while at a customer's site, someone politely hit my rear bumper in a parking lot, and left without a note or anything. While most folks might ignore the remaining damage, i'm quite **** and it really bugs me, so I'm considering repairing what I can. Sadly I didn't...

    4th Gen Maintenance Questions

    So I'm curious, when I check the factory maintenance schedule, I don't see any mention of typical services I've done with every 4WD I've ever owned. even past 100k miles. Things like 4Wheel service, differential flushes, T-Case and tranny flush, etc. Does anyone have a different schedule that...

    Platinum Grill and Bumper - Rattle

    Hey all - so lately I've been notice a bit of a clunking/rattling noise as I go over speed bumps and cracks in the road. Happens at virtually any speed and it's pretty loud. I actually initially thought that maybe somehow it was my skid plates so I crawled under, took them off, and found it...

    Strange Engine/Turbo Behavior - Post 5Star Tune

    Hi All, I Actually started talking about this issue in a different thread, in the 5Star forum, but I figured I'd post it here since it's not directly associated with the previous thread. Here's the original thread, for reference...

    4th Gen windshield replacement? Almost made me lose my mind.

    Looking for some experience from our fellow owners. As is so common in Colorado with both sides of the highway a trash pile, little debris cleanup, and sand everywhere, I had a pebble hit the windshield and splinter from the bottom left up to the top left in an hour. I've always used Safelite...

    Pretty funny slash awesome security feature...

    Curious how far this goes, given the fact that for example so many parts are shared between Fiat Chrysler vehicles and others, I really like this idea. With FordPass, it would be even more awesome if we could initiate something like this remotely, with a delayed effect. Meaning, to prevent...
