    Help! Bitten off more than I can chew.

    Ottowa14Ltd you should be fine. I have a older 28' Fleetwood that I have been pulling behind my 07 Navigator Luxury. The 5.4l is a torque monster in disguise, but I do agree with others on this thread. You're not driving a Formula 1 car with Mario Andretti, thinking ahead, planning the tow route...

    E3.70 spark plugs or Pilot Nitrode SP-NP29

    You're welcome. Just remember to use a little anti-seize on the threads for future ease of removal. Like I said it is just my experience in the past year. The 5.4l is a torque little beast and loves to have some weight hooked to the hitch. I pulled my TT with the original motocrafts and it did...

    Question for everyone

    Tomringler, The carbon buildup problem you speak of in the ecoboost is due to driver error. These engines are like the new diesels as far build. They are purposely built to work. So when you drive them on short trips with a soft foot, carbon will build like said before in any engine. Boosted...

    E3.70 spark plugs or Pilot Nitrode SP-NP29

    To the OP, I have been running the E3.70's in my 07 Navi for the last year. I have better throttle response and acceleration compared to the stock plugs. only a slight improvement in economy. I changed to the E3.70's for one reason and that was to ease changing the plugs next (solid one piece...

    Automatic Liftgate Won't Stay Open

    I think the part numbers I used were from Oreilly's. Part SG304081. Of course I found a pair on eBay for the same price as one. BTW, after replacing the rams, then go through the reset procedure. Hope all goes well.

    Automatic Liftgate Won't Stay Open

    Ckersey, I had this exact same problem with the power liftgate on my 07 Navigator. it would open about 3/4 of the way start beeping and slam closed. I called the local ford techs and got the bring it in and pay us tons of money to tell you we can't figure it out speech. I followed all the...

    Worth it to trade in for new?

    The deals are out there. the best deals though will be with the Ecoboost in the 2015's. This will be what they try and push the most so there will be steeper discounts through the right dealers. My younger brother picked up a 2005 EB last week for a screaming deal. The owner was a company man in...

    Adjusting the HVAC door actuators?

    Funny you should be in the Phoenix area, that is where I found my 07 Navigator earlier this year. I never did take photos which is my bad, but you're correct that they are located under the passenger rear window. If you give a slight tug on the cup holder and the long tray on top of that trim it...

    Adjusting the HVAC door actuators?

    Actually the remedy is to replace both of the blend door actuators modules. When we first bought our 07 Navigator Elite we had the same exact problem with the rear air. The only way I was able to come to the correct conclusion was I heard a slight clicking when I would try to change the air to...

    What you movin?

    Sorry for the delay Static54, work came back from the weekend. I use an Equal-I-zer WDH with sway control, but will be upgrading to an Andersen next year. The Equalizer is my father-in-laws and they're currently living in Italy enjoying retirement for the year. I also use the Tekonsha Prodigy...

    What you movin?

    Jdm 5630, that is the snorkel. Just give that a little tap with some force and it will fall right out. This effectively gives you a 4" opening compared to the 2" snorkel opening. More air in, more air out increased HP and fuel economy.

    What you movin?

    Yeah, I knocked it out of the fenderwell. It has helped with the economy too. When I took possession of this Navi from the dealership it was only registering 8 mpg on the lie-o-meter, currently up to 14 mpg hand calculated. Plus it adds a nice little growl in the engine bay when you get happy...

    What you movin?

    Thanks Cobra.... that is interesting. I'm glad to see that many of those were within the same size as mine. people give me weird looks when I tell them that I use my Navi to pull a travel trailer. Out here in Northern Utah most SUV/CUV's are grocery runners and 4WD for the snow. I also have an...

    What you movin?

    Hey Guys new to this forum and interested to see what every one is using there Expy/Navi's to haul. I have had a 1999 Expedition, but a few months ago traded up to a new/used 2007 Navigator. The travel trailer was a little beyond the towing capacity of the Expy so we upgraded and spoiled...
