    2012 Expedition A/C Question

    I got back our Expy today from dealership. Shop replaced compressor, evaporator, orifice, accumulator and expansion valve. All covered under warranty (Ford) Anyone hazard a guess as to how much this would have cost me without a warranty? Also replaced under warranty, both driver and...

    Where is the best deal on Ford OEM extended warranty?

    I bought one from Lombard Ford 2 years ago for my 2012 Expedition after the original one ran out. No problems and a payment plan as well

    Advice on this radio....

    You will get what you pay for. 200$ for a head unit, you'll get a bare bones unit that might or might not suit your needs. Is it compatible with Android Auto? How do you update the gps and is it updatable? You'll need to get a small module to keep the steering wheel controls. These are not...

    Bluetooth scan tools

    I don't know if its offered for Apple, but TORQUE on my Android devices works perfectly for what you want. Fully configurable gauges, digital or analog, place them where you want them on the screen. The ELM bluetooth device works perfectly with the software

    Illuminated stainless steel Sill Plates.

    Mine are still going after almost 7 years. They get scuffed some, but judicious use of a nylon pot scrubber will dress them back up

    Surprise! SYNC Navigation actually turned out to be useful!

    2012 KR here. I bit the bullet and installed a Lockpick 6 months after buying the vehicle new. I've updated the software once in 2015. I seldom use my phone or Garmin since the SYNC does so well. I don't use POI's very much as I know they are out of date, but entering an address is easy enough...

    use my fog lights in the parking light position

    When we had our 2001 Expy I did the same thing. Remove the switch, carefully pop it open and file down the lockout tab on the switch. Exact details escape me, but you might check out youtube

    Question about a aftermarket head unit

    You could rig up rca plugs for input into the new head, but doubt you'll ever wind up being able to control the player through the new radio head. Rip the cd's into mp3 files, then use a memory stick to play them on your new head unit

    Illuminated stainless steel Sill Plates.

    I installed these sill plates shortly after getting our new 2012 KR. There's no plug and play connectors. You have to find the proper wires in the wire bundle coming out of the fuse box on the passenger side kick panel. I posted pictures but the image hosting web site went out of business. I may...

    Cost to tint all around (except windshield)?

    I've had 3 Expeditons, one Enclave, and I never needed to tint the windows other than the driver and front passenger windows. So all of them were in the 75-90$ range

    Original Lockpick

    For harddrive based Expeditions 2009 to 2013 Expeditions. Brand new, never installed. I bought this one as a backup to the one I have in my King Ranch. First time out of the box to take picture. Plug n play. GPS input while vehicle is in motion, 2 video inputs if you don't have factory backup...

    Anyone using E85 in their flex fuel vehicle

    2012 Expy KR. I used E-85 several times shortly after purchase. Mileage went down 2-3 mpg. Price was competitive but the mileage drop convinced me to stop using it

    A powered cooler to fit between the second row captains chairs

    Most of the ones you are going to find are based on Peltier effect cooling. It depends on how cool the interior of the vehicle as to how cool the cooler gets. More than likely if you keep the inside temp to around 70 or so, you'll get a cooler that will be around 35 or so. Warmer interior means...

    Swirles in Paint Finish

    Swirls are induced by drive through car washes, detailing the car without washing, using rough towels. A buffer and swirl remover is about the only thing that will completely take them out. I buffed out my XLR 2 years ago, and I'm just starting to get swirls back.

    Tail light grommets..

    I used that SUGRU stuff to fill in the holes, then drilled them out to size them to the alignment pins on the tail light assembly. It was a make do thing at the time that's worked very well

    Front screen dvd

    First thing I did with our '12 KR was to install a Lockpick in the vehicle. Enter information into GPS while in motion, turn on rear camera while driving to check on the trailer I'm pulling, and co pilot can watch a movie or a tv episode while I'm driving. Great unit, not a bit of problem with...

    Rear entertainment worth it or buy aftermarket?

    The RSE that is installed at the factory has a little more control over the headrest units. There you can actually control the rear units. The dealer installed factory RSE units don't have that control. But in my case, the headrest units can play 2 different dvd's at a time, or can watch the...
