    Looking to identify the correct part for rubber driver door seal trim

    I am looking to replace the rubber trim around the body side of the driver's door on my 2018 Limited. Somehow, I have damaged it and metal from inside the rubber is now peeking through. I checked the usual parts sites, but I am not confident in what I am looking at since none of the diagrams...

    2018 Transmission Troubles

    My 2018 Limited (94k miles) is experiencing some transmission troubles. It started a few thousand miles ago with the well-known 5th/6th gear shudders. Now my transmission is running hot and does not shift smoothly, even with minimal driving. I don't seem to be getting full power when...

    My foot activated liftgate is possessed - can I turn it off?

    The power liftgate in my truck is possessed. It opens when I walk by the back of the truck, it opens when someone enters of exits either rear seat door, it occasionally opens after I close the drivers door and start to walk away from the truck. Today I was standing behind the vehicle and the...

    2018 Expedition Limited - P04F0 Code

    My Expedition CEL is on with a P04F0 code. My basic code reader wouldn't even read that code, but my bluetooth one with an app did. It translates the code as "Manufacturer Defined." I did some Google searching and found its something to do with EVAP fuel pressures. I also found a TSB with a...

    Moonroof cover not closing all the way; adjustment possible?

    My moonroof cover used to close all the way. Now it leaves a slight gap at the front which, depending on time of day and cloud cover, makes a noticeable light area still visible. I typically only open the cover in the early morning, evening, or nighttime and keep it closed when parked or...

    Help identify mysterious driveway puddles... clear, odorless, slightly viscous

    Yesterday, there was a fairly sizable puddle coming out from under my Expedition while it was parked all day. Its backed into the driveway, which means it's inclined forward a few degrees. The leak ran from under the truck, out a couple of feet. I attached a photo of that puddle, but I had...

    Can you buy a replacement defrost vent on top of driver door?

    Somehow I lost one of the slats on the vent at the top of my driver door. Is this vent piece available as a stand alone part?

    CarPlay connectivity issue, replace the USB ports?

    I have significant trouble keeping CarPlay connected and/or getting the CarPlay to recognize my phone is connected. Once it connects, if I bump the cord it will often loose connection. I’ve used multiple known good Lightning cables with the same result. Does this indicate a need to replace...

    Making a Sync screen theme change permanent with Lincoln theme?

    I finally got around to updating my Sync 3.0 to 3.4 using CynLabs. Totally painless. One thing I tinkered with after the update was the APIM Test Settings and looking at the different themes. While I wish it showed the Ford logo, I really like the the look of the Lincoln Black Label sync theme...

    How can I get the 2/20 map update?

    I updated the maps in my 2018 Limited and got the 1/19 version which supposedly is the latest. While visiting my parents recently, I noticed both their cars had a new road visible that mine didn’t. They are both running 2/20 maps and both said the update downloaded over WiFi from the home...

    2018 Limited showing P0012 code at 51k miles

    Been seeing an intermittent check engine light while on vacation this week. Finally home this evening and was able to read the code as “P0012 Camshaft Position “A” - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 1)” I did some searching and see a wide variety of posts about this code in older expeditions, but not...

    Issues with Sync software update not loading over wifi

    Ford's web site shows me there is a software update for my Sync3 system (currently running 3.0.19205 and it is telling me 3.0.20204 is available). It offers me the USB option or the over the air option via wifi. My Expedition has my home wifi configured and there is a wifi access point in my...

    Replace AC Outlet on Rear Side of Console

    I need to replace the outlet on the rear side of the console. It works, but the outlet itself seems to be worn out as its loose and nothing will stay plugged in unless I hold it. I bought the truck used and just noticed the issue. I identified and ordered the new plug for just over $20, so at...

    Creaking in door panel plastic

    I found a thread in this from long ago, tried all the fixes suggested and none worked. The driver and passenger door panels on my 2018 Limited creak when I or a passenger lean a leg against them. It’s terribly annoying. Previous threads suggested it’s the faux wood area rubbing against the...

    Is there a way to fix this without replacing the whole part?

    Is there a way to fix this without replacing the whole bumper cover? Something snagged the wheel well and a small section of the clip area seems to have broken off. I have seen some plastic welding stuff, but never had much luck in actually using it.

    Drivers door hinge area crack in plastic

    Aside from aesthetics, is there any reason to fix this? It appears to be a crack in the plastic covering on the metal bar that actually does the work. (I have no idea the formal name or function of this part.)

    Name that noise... Whirring from front end

    I am having a bizarre noise from the front end of my Expedition (2018 Limited, 41k miles, purchased a certified used). I would describe it as a whirring type noise. It is not loud and, if the radio is up above 6, I can only hear it because I know its there. It does not seem to be there at low...

    Looking for Accessory Power for Dashcam

    I am looking to hardwire a dash cam in my 4th gen. Ideally, I would love to find accessory or delayed accessory power in the overhead console that I could tap. But anywhere behind the glovebox would work too. I'd prefer not to deal with one of those add-a-circuit things if I can avoid it so I...

    Moonroof cover open and close question

    Is there a way to open/close the moonroof cover all the way without it stopping in the middle and having to press the button a second time? I tried a double tap, a hold, etc. But no matter what, it stops at the midway point until I push the button again.

    Anyone tried the Bolt brand receiver locks?

    I am looking at getting a Bolt 7023585 receiver lock. They seem to have ok reviews and I like the concept of not adding another key into my life. I am wondering if anyone has used one and, if so, will the Ford side cut model work correctly with the pop out emergency key on the 4th gen Expedition...

    LED License Plate Lights

    I ordered some Sylvania W5W LED Lights for the license plate and I’m not pleased with the light pattern. They work well, and certainly look better than stock in terms of color temp, but I was hoping for more even lighting across the plate. Has anyone tried these, or anything like them? They...

    Gasket behind door handle deterioration

    On my 2018 Limited, I’ve noticed that the gasket behind the drivers door handle seems to have deteriorated pretty significantly as compared to the other doors. I’m concerned this would lead to undue wear on the handle as well as water intrusion. Has anyone experienced this? I assume they would...

    Temp Disable Automatic Engine Shutdown?

    The manual says I can use the Info screens to temporarily disable the automatic engine shutdown feature on a per start basis. I’m referring to the one that stops the idling engine unless you interact with the vehicle, not the auto start/stop feature. When I loaded a Sync map update the...
