    Air suspension pump running randomly

    I have a 2011 King Ranch 180k miles. I replaced my rear air suspension with the Arnott non-air struts. Worked great and just pulled the air suspension fuse and capped and tied off the air lines in the back.

    Anyone replaced their air suspension with the standard setup?

    I have a 2011 2wd Exp King Ranch with rear air leveling suspension. It started intermittently deflating overnight, but equally on both sides. I decided to replace mine with Arnott conversion kit. The ride is very similar unloaded with coils as with the air suspension and I am happy with it. I...

    2011 Expedition King Ranch 4x2 20" tires 23.2 mpg

    That’s impressive, my Expedition is stock and has the 5.4L V8 I haven’t tuned it or added any extra suspension kits. I do notice that this 2011 vs my former 2012 has lower rpms at highway speeds. Could be the 20” vs 18” wheels.

    Auto running boards

    It is fairly easy to change the motors if cleaning and lubing doesn't work. I bought a cheap knock off from Amazon and replaced my passenger motor. That was over a year ago and no problems. I lube the pins and hinges with silicon spray every time I wash the truck. I also live in Florida and...

    2011 Expedition King Ranch 4x2 20" tires 23.2 mpg

    I am amazed that I was able to get 23.2 mpg on my 2011 Expedition King Ranch 4x2 with 20" tires and 149k miles. I drove 400 miles averaging 60 mph from Tampa to Destin along the Suncoast Parkway using non-ethanol fuel from Wawa. I had a 2012 Limited that I was lucky to get 18mpg.

    Air suspension question

    Yes, replace with new air suspension or replace with non air suspension springs. My 2011 Expedition with rear load leveling suspension sags sometimes when parked, but level's out when running. When it goes out, I am replacing with non air suspension as I don't do any towing.

    Blown turbo. How much metal shavings is too much?

    It is amazing how these engines survive oil contaminates. Short oil and filter change interval and run it. Send an oil sample into a oil analysis company and they will give you an idea how much metal is still encapsulated in the oil.

    Where’s the security code located?

    Remove the passenger foot well fuse box cover. There is a module with a sticker on it back there with the code. I had to use the zoom function on my phone camera and snap a photo of it to read it.

    Sunroof repair

    My sunroof stopped working. I forced it close to the sound of crunching plastic, then pulled the fuse. I like to open the shade occasionally, but rarely open the sunroof. I use the rear wing windows and roll down the side windows. I have the replacement part, but I may never install it.

    Misfire and spark plug recommendations.

    Yep, look at the gap on the used plug. That would definitely cause a misfire.

    How to install clips in 2015 Expedition

    The trim holds them very firmly as the screws are long and thick. Have one in my 2012 for over a year and the anchors are still firmly in place.

    Rocker Panels

    Smoking causes 480k deaths a year in the US which includes 41k due to secondhand smoke. Smoking is not illegal and society allows adults to make the decision to ingest Tobacco. Tobacco lines the pockets of big tobacco and state and local government due to taxes. How is that bonkers? It is fact.

    Rocker Panels

    Here in NW Florida you will frequently see cars/trucks rolling down the road with windshields that have been damaged from occupants head contacting the inside, complete front and rear bumpers off missing headlights/tail lights, no mufflers. I lived in Virginia/Hawaii also and they have vehicle...

    Another Round of Guess the Damage $$$

    Surprised with over 8k+ damage on it. Once it is fixed, drive it until it rusts to the frame or the wheels fall off. Post your VIN on this thread so 5 years from now a google search will pop up with photos to the damage if you decide to sell it or trade it in on a 2026 all electric Ford Expedition.

    2007 expedition key

    Yes, you need to have the passive antitheft system programmed. Because you only have one key, you will have to program both keys. I was in the same situation as you, one key. I purchased one off amazon and used forscan to program the key. Ace hardware cut the key which would open the door, but...

    what else should i do?

    If your wife was only going to travel there 6-12 a year, a rental car probably would have been cheaper and more practical. You only pay for the days you have it and don't have to do any maintenance.

    Need professional advice...

    I have a 2012 Limited with 200k+ miles. I drained mine and changed the filter. Nothing was wrong with it and it shifts just as well now as it did before. Preventative maintenance frequently doesn't make a noticeable different in operation or performance. I didn't even need to jack up my expo to...

    Another Round of Guess the Damage $$$

    I don't think you will get a detailed line item quote to fix that. The insurance adjuster is going to come out, take a look and then tell you it is economically unrepairable. I would start cleaning out your items and prepare it for the insurance company to tow it. Start looking for a new 3rd Gen...

    Installing TPMS in a 2016

    I disabled mine permanently with forscan. The batteries are dead in one of the wheel sensors and I got tired of the warning indicator and DIC message.
