    Transmission got hot - fluid everywhere

    Driving on the highway for a 3-hour trip, and about 30 minutes remaining, my trans temp got very hot (I saw 232*). The cruise was set for most of the trip, relatively flat terrain (Missouri), and I was not towing. Ambient temperature was a little over 80*. I’ve got about 80k miles on my...

    Water in the reflector assembly - not covered by warranty???

    Three days after running my 2019 Navigator through the car wash, water remained inside the reflector assembly on the rear hatch. See pics. The dealership told me it’s not covered under my Lincoln Premium Care extended warranty (with lighting option) and quoted over $4k to fix it. After talking...

    4th Gen brakes

    The 3.5 eco boost available in the Navigator / Expedition comes with varying power outputs, topping out in the Navigator at 450 hp, 510 tq. I’ve been modding trucks for 30+ years, and the premise always adhered to is make sure you increase the stopping power if you’re going to upgrade the HP...

    Sold the 2003 EB…for an upgrade

    I’ve had a lot of fun for the last 2 years working on / rehabilitating my 2003 EB. Dropped a new engine in it, new brakes, bearings, shocks, U-joints, E-fans, tires, head-unit w/back-up cam, vac hoses, rack-and-pinion, CAI, end-links, upholstery, cats (x2) and cat-back, paintless dent repair...

    Proud of my ‘03 EB

    STL has been hit by a snow and ice storm, but I still gotta go to work. Took the EB to work on Sunday, and she performed flawlessly. The AWD was key to the 60 mile commute…traffic was light cause no one else dared brave the conditions. I simply stayed at a hotel near work the first night...

    Looking for Sun Load Temp Sensor

    Team: Been troubleshooting the DATC system in my '03 EB, and I think I've got it narrowed down to one last item that could possibly make my system finally operate correctly. First: THE PROBLEM: It seems in the summer, my AC doesn't blow as cold as it should, and in the winter the heat...

    Not bad, considering she’s old enough to drink

    After my PDR guy did his magic, I spent about 6 hours with clay bar, compound, polish and wax. She’s cleans up pretty good

    Intermittent vibration at 70-75 MPH? - SOLVED!

    I’ve been chasing a vibration that has developed in the past month, at speeds of 70-75 MPH. I briefly mentioned it in @whtbronco thread, but didn’t want to derail his quest. I first suspected drivetrain, as it seemed centrally located in the vehicle, not one of the corners. The tires are new...

    E-fans and CAI 5.4 2v

    Looking to free up dead weight, and increase the airflow, I’m installing a Volant cold air intake and Flex-o-Lite electric fans on my 5.4 2v. I’ve installed e-fans on several of my trucks over the past 20 years, and the improvement is apparent. I’m also looking forward to getting rid of the OEM...

    Thinking of supercharging the 5.4 2v

    After installing a new re-man’d 5.4 2v in my ‘03 EB, I’ve put about 5k miles on her working out any more write-ups. I went with JBA headers, eventually replaced both cats, and while I was there just threw on a Magnaflow muffler and rolled stainless tip. I’ve kind of fallen in love all over...

    '03 EB with factory NAV - back-up camera options?

    I've got the factory navigation unit installed in my 2003 Eddie Bauer. I'd like to install a back-up camera, that displays on the nav unit. Has anyone done this successfully? I stopped by a local stereo shop, and they simply wanted to sell me a new head unit that would make back-up camera...

    Refinishing 2nd row captain's seats

    Restoring my months-old 2003 EB, I can finally get to some of the more detailed write-ups. The seats were in pretty bad shape, and both front seats were easy enough to reupholster with matching upholstery from the eBay. The second row captain's chairs were not as easily sourced, so I went with...

    Blend door actuators - how many up front?

    Still sorting through write-ups on my 2003 EB, how many blend doors actuators are in the dash? I replaced one up front, and both in the back. The EATC now shows 2267 code, which according to the maintenance manual, reads “(RH) upper blend door failure or short.” The clicking still remains in...

    Reman’d 5.4L 2v installation

    I’m installing a reman’d 5.4 2v in my 2003 EB. I’ll capture the process in this thread for those that may be interested. I went with an AER engine retailed through Power Source. AER remanufactures engines for Ford dealers, so I figured it was a solid choice. Quick question: I’ll be going back...

    2003 5.4 oil leak passenger side?

    2003 EB 5.4 2v. Trying to hunt down an oil leak. Recently installed new intake manifold addressing other issues, and that was a success. Just spent 3 days meticulously installing new valve cover gaskets - both sides. Sad to say, that did not fix the oil leak. The starter has oil...

    ABS module codes and I’m stumped!

    I recently purchased a 2003 Expedition Eddie Bauer, 5.4. Quite the project truck, but I’ve been meticulously working through the write-ups to get her safe and reliable for an airport car. The remaining DTCs have me stumped, figured I would ask the collective group, to maybe point me in the...
