    Remote started my Expy through the remote. WTH?

    I am not sure what brand it is. I haven't dug into it any further. It starts with the lock, unlock, lock(hold) sequence. It shuts off if I apply the brake.

    That worked! Thanks!!!

    Remote started my Expy through the remote. WTH?

    So, I just messed around with it for a while and finally found the pattern! It is lock, unlock, lock(hold for 3 seconds). You hear a starter solenoid or something click and then it starts. The crazy thing is that to turn it off, one needs to put the key in and actually shift it out of gear and...

    Remote started my Expy through the remote. WTH?

    I am assuming the '09 Expedition EL I purchased used has an aftermarket remote start on it. Problem is, I have no idea how it works. This morning I was messing around with the remote pushing buttons to lock, unlock, lock doors...and it starts! I noticed the drivers door was unlocked when...

    Need more bass.

    Thanks guys! A box or anything in the open will not work. I traded a truck in for the Expy, and thus use the Expy as one. I use it for tailgating, carrying light lumber, and for carrying boxes of goods back and forth. So, I do actually use all the cargo capacity. I will ned to find something...

    Need more bass.

    I have the OE Navi/Sync system and am looking to get more bass out of the sub. Does anyone know if there is a separate amp for the sub and if it may have a gain dial on it? I know my Pontiac had such an adjustment. If not, what would be the easiest way to achieve more bass? Will a better...

    2012 Daylight Running Lights

    My local FORD shop said a DRL system would need to be installed on my '09. ???

    Can DRL's be turned on?

    I called my local FORD dealer and they said that a DRL kit would need to be installed which would be expensive. :(

    2012 Daylight Running Lights

    I too just started a post yesterday in the 3rd GEN section regarding this. It appears the dealer can turn them on. I believe they have the capability. But it will probably cost you half an hours service.

    Can DRL's be turned on?

    My truck does not have them. I guess by turned on, I meant how can I wire my system to have DRL's? I'd really like to have the fog lights always on. But if the dealership can have the headlights come on at 70% with a download, I guess that would do too. I am a GM transplant. So I am used to...

    Can DRL's be turned on?

    I have been told my Ex is very difficult to see coming through the woods with it being blacked out. So, can the DRL's be turned on? Or is there a kit that will turn the driving lights on with ignition?

    Anyone else try to debadge their tailgate?

    Mine had two holes behind the Expedition emblem but not the Flex Fuel on the tailgate. I know one thing...the tailgate looks a LOT better with them removed! ;)

    What chip to buy.

    Well I just received the Hypertech this morning. I had to run an update and then hooked it to the truck. I had 2 codes- U0164 and B1600. Both appear to be transmission codes, one for the HVAC and one for the electronic key. I cleared both codes and continued with the tune. I stuck to the...

    What chip to buy.

    Lastly...what percentage do you use for your shift firmness? And I'm done with the questions!

    What chip to buy.

    I'll have to let you know. I just ordered it today. I did call Hypertech first. He said no 'tuning' is necessary to reach the numbers. Simply plug in and install. The extra effort would be towards changing shift points, tire dimensions, etc. It sounded very 'plug and play' from what he...

    What chip to buy.

    So, will the Hypertech pick up or adjust to the fact that I have a CAI and catback?

    What chip to buy.

    The lifetime warranty on the Hypertech is what sold me. They are all within $50 of each, with the Hypertech being the least expensive. But to me the extra 1-2 hp and 5-8 ft lbs of torque means nothing after the one year warranty runs out on the other two. ;)

    Why don't they place clothes hooks in the cargo area?

    I think he was joking. :) Yeah, I too was thinking of mounting something on both of the trim panels. I can see what guys are saying about dress coats inside the door. But my use would be hanging clothes to wear after going to the gym every morning. I know there are also times when we go...

    What chip to buy.

    Well, I rolled the dice and placed my order. Autoanything has 15% off until the 15th. So, I got the Hypertech Max Energy for $288. For that price, I felt it was worth it!

    What chip to buy.

    So, if these hp claims are pretty true, this seems like a no brainer. I have noticed improvements with my CAI and catback...but a 10% increase in hp for less than $400? And as you said, the extra power will be nice. But it's the EX's stumbling for gears when driving through varying conditions...

    Who uses Sync?

    I have an iphone 3GS and everything works pretty well with Sync except for the audible texting feature. Does anyone's smartphone work with Sync and the audible texting? To me, this seems as if it would be a great feature!

    What chip to buy.

    I just read this on the EDGE site: Ford Expedition 2009 2010 5.4L + 37.0 HP + 50.0 lb-ft No way those are gains from merely a $367 tuner?! If so, I'm buying one tomorrow! :)

    Traded the Expedition

    I had both an '83 Renegade and a '93 Wrangler Renegade. One of the most fun vehicles I have ever owned!

    Why don't they place clothes hooks in the cargo area?

    I have noticed several SUV's we have owned do not place clothes hooks in the cargo area. They are almost always inside the second and third row seats. Every morning I place my gym bag, lunch, and laptop in the cargo area and then walk to the second row door to hang my shirt. It would be so...
