    1999 Expy 5.4L v8 throwing multiple codes, help please!!

    My experience precisely. In the 2002 5.4L it'll consistently be at the crossover in the front of the intake manifold.

    1999 Expy 5.4L v8 throwing multiple codes, help please!!

    Included in the vacuum leak check should be an intake manifold check at the crossover (low, in front of manifold on my 2002). After chasing down potential hose vacuum leaks in my 2002 Eddie Bauer 5.4L Triton at 100K miles less than you have on yours, I isolated a leak at that crossover...

    99 5.4L Trouble in the rain

    Seriously? My 2002 Eddie Bauer 5.4L 4X4 EATC (including ventilation) only operates with the key in the "On" position or when the vehicle is running. If this is not symptomatic of THE problem, it would certainly seem symptomatic of A problem.

    Rear Air Conditioning

    Not sure which model year you have. Looks like your EB has manual climate control. My 2002 Eddie Bauer has the power moonroof with EATC, so the rear climate controls look and work differently than yours, with vents placed throughout the floor and ceiling of the middle and rear passenger cabin...

    Need Opinions!

    Navigate to BOB's link and you can select different vehicle conditions for other valuations. But the high-end "Excellent" condition, which almost no vehicle is, hovers just above $4K.

    Need Opinions!

    If it's pristine (only 3% of cars are in 'Excellent' condition, at best it's probably 'Clean' condition), 3rd-row seat, everything works (100%) with no accidents or visible damage, 4WD, rear AC - i.e., completely loaded - in or around Germantown, IL, Kelly Blue Book values it just under $4,000...

    Ahhh, that popping sound when you turn the wheels all the way

    If you're 1st gen, you probably know that AWD 'bucking' sensation you get from making particularly sharp low-speed turns when accelerating on slick pavement, loose leaves, etc. I'm assuming it's not that.

    Seat Ghost

    Yes, but if the missus has the other fob, you may get an earful. Seriously...To test this, have a fully charged battery, or start the vehicle (assuming your alternator is good). Have both fobs with you (assuming their button batteries are good as well) then try both fobs separately. If the...

    Cost to R&R oils

    Similar here...2002 EB 5.4L, 1-owner from new in 2001, now has 176K. I replaced my own plastic intake manifold once, around 150K, and dropped the tank to replace the fuel pump in my own garage using a cheap floor jack shortly thereafter. Those are the only two significant repair jobs I've had...

    How to reset service engine light

    Trainmaster and ExplorerTom have it right. Disconnect negative battery cable and leave door(s) open, turn headlights on, leave hatch open, leave hood up, turn ignition to accessory or on, etc. - anything to drain residual power after disconnection. Then reconnect battery and restart, and...

    Idle problems

    Likely issue with hose(s). My original 2002 EB 5.4L vacuum hoses were so lightweight they just tended to disintegrate right through over the years, and my expy is garaged 100% when not driving. Also had an issue with the plastic intake manifold at the crossover. Idle valve was so cheap I...

    My first Ford Expedition.

    Most likely a simple fix on the mirrors. There is so little space inside the driver's door that the operation (motion) of the power driver's window tends to push the panel slightly back and forth over time as the window travels up and down. This will contribute to the loosening of the wiring...

    Keep It or Flip It??

    With respect to depreciating assets such as used vehicles, the pre-owned 'market' considers mileage as a downside (debit) not upside (credit) with respect to your valuation 'account'. I.e., the more miles the lower the value. Generally, there is no 'bonus' or value boost for any used vehicle...

    04 Expedition Driver Window Switch Station

    True, those mirror switches might last 18 years, but they don't last forever. Had to replace my Excursion's after that length of time back in March. Went aftermarket for $11.29, inclusive of tax and shipping.

    04 Expedition Driver Window Switch Station

    My 2002 EB 1st Gen wiring harness is so tight from the factory that just working the window for more than a decade will loosen the connection over time. Removing the panel and reseating the connection at that harness every 15 years (LOL) did it for me. But the only symptom is the directional...

    Bought a 2000 Expedition 4x4 within about a minute...now i'm nervous!

    Pull codes - if any - and check for vacuum issues before spending another dime. At that age, and even if daily garaged, there will be vacuum issues unless those lines were already replaced.

    Transmission will NOT stop leaking.

    I don't do transmissions, and your "trusted mechanics" evidently don't do them either.

    Manufacturer Instructions

    Wouldn't know about Cub Cadet, except my father-in-law and son have had made same/similar observations regarding theirs. Myself? I'm still mowing with my original owner, 1999 46" WMT Murray with the 17.5hp Briggs & Stratton engine. It went into service a few years prior to my original owner...

    Can a fuel pump go bad after Expedition sitting for 6 months?

    Mine went out at approximately 160K. Dropped the tank and replaced it with a lifetime-warranted aftermarket from O'Reilly's. The job was time-consuming, but not difficult. Based on your confirmation that the pump has power, I agree with the advice to swap out the filter. It's cheap...

    Running board lights

    Yes, that's the way it's supposed to work. E.g., my '02 Eddie Bauer is the same. Running board lights come on when the vehicle receives the unlock signal from the fob, and they remain on upon next press to unlock all doors.
