    'Shift delayed - Pull forward' and P0446 & P1633 codes

    Of my Fords I've ever had; this one has been a nightmare (my 3rd Expedition). Background: over the past 3 years this has moved maybe a total of 500 miles. Prior to that my father borrowed it and t-boned someone who ran a red light, having no insurance, license or registration. Because it was my...

    Transmission Issue: P0770 w/ Extreme Gear Selector Jerking

    Hey guys, i have on 08 Expy that is experiencing hard shifting. I have just under 320k and did a fluid change every 100k (I bought new). I like to diagnose- so this and understand and although I work at a dealership (not Ford) I like to understand the mechanical aspect (the civil engineer in...

    2010 ---> 2015 Front end conversion

    Hey guys- Long time 08 Expedition owner... Im just shy of 305K on it- all on orig drivetrain btw- and gonna try to go as high as it will take me. Was looking to get a 16/17 but got a sick deal on a fixer to "add to my fleet". Bought a damaged 2010 Limited MAX for $1,500 and it needs a front end...

    08 Front brakes under pressure

    UPDATE: As I don't like to do my own work, brought my truck in with advise from you guys. Although I was very low on pad and rotor life which I had already known (10-20% left) the sticking issue was getting bad enough to where it was effecting traction control functions- it would basically bring...

    air suspension 911 help!

    Just thought I'd give an update- the pump went and was a mere $150 on amazon. I was able to do it myself, but had a hard time with 1 connection otherwise super easy to get to. Should have taken me a mere 30 mins, but given my lack of tools and the area I did it, it took almost 3 hours. But im...

    2009 Rusted Rockers

    Ahhh I kinda figured. Think you guys have a Ford stamping plat there.. but I've learned the hard way to never buy a used car from buffalo... Bought a used 03 Explorer from Mass, in 05 and then an 05 Aviator from buffalo in 07. Explorer never saw body rust when I had it (just suspension which is...

    2009 Rusted Rockers

    Where In WNY are you? I'm in Rochester. Not a lot of Expeditions around here (another reason I like it)- big GM city/town.

    2009 Rusted Rockers

    Agreed, I'm at 285K now and might have someone do some crappy bondo so it doesn't look as bad when I trade it in to the dealer. Told them i'm waiting to hit the 300K mark before I take a 17 or even a used 16- just because I want to be able to legit say that I went 300k on orig drivetrain..

    08 Front brakes under pressure

    My expy does this sometimes after a hard braking. Im going to investigate a bit further because occasionally i'll get some noise, serious vibration and engine drag- almost as if the front left brake is still on. Other times its fine. I was initially thinking wheel bearing, but truck doesn't pull...

    Looking at upgrading my 08 ---> 15+, need help!

    Def gotta hit 300K, my 03 explorer rusted out underneath (not on body at all) and had to get rid of it at 278K. I looked into a front clip swap- about 2-3k, headlights were 4/500 a piece, fogs were 200 each, bumper and grill another $1200.. and Id want the platinum rims too... But Its a little...

    Excessive air pump noise...

    Grew up a GM family... my first Ford was a Contour SVT. Loved it, but traded back to family loyalty and bought 4 more GM's until they all almost made me broke. Bought a Taurus- 200k in 4 years, gave to my brother as his GM kept sh!tting the bed, made it to 278K before he totaled it in a...

    Looking at upgrading my 08 ---> 15+, need help!

    Been stalking the 18's since there was initial rumblings, Im afraid its going to feel too much like the Infinity whale suv that's out there, bulky and bubly. Personally don't like the rear ends (at least from the pictures) and given the way the packaging department has been toying with Lincolns...

    Excessive air pump noise...

    So I MAY have a leak somewhere in the air suspension, but the truck doesn't drop at all. When the pump kicks on, it just sounds terribly weak... Occasionally I hear a hissing sound in the back cabin when driving- and not usually at the same time as the pump kicking on (whether im driving, its...

    Looking at upgrading my 08 ---> 15+, need help!

    My 08 Expy is getting a bit long in the tooth... I love almost everything about it other than some things not working anymore (my brother did something to the power tailgate, rear wiper is shot, front fan is temperamental) and more so its getting a bit sluggish and given how I drive it...

    Driver's side automatic window go up or only down?

    Hm, It worked on a friends 13' and I would assume/hope that Ford didn't get rid of features even as miniscule as that- however, the did get rid of the hvac controls on the steering wheel after 09 I believe.. Maybe your actual switch is faulty. I was would be curious to see if you could buy a...

    Driver's side automatic window go up or only down?

    Hey guys, don't know if anyone is having issues still but learned this from being Jaguar salesmen back when they were very Ford related, and my own Expedition... Haven't seen anyone explain it this way- All limited Expeditions have 1 touch down AND up feature. It occasionally can get "confused"...

    2015 Headlight Assembly Options

    Put aftermarket with the led bar that looks like a GMC acadia in mine to supplement the cost of almost a new front clip... bumpers are 900 used, used and broken headlights are still 350 (each, more if you get projectors), grill is $400 for the cheapest I've seen, and the "fog" daytime running...

    Power Tailgate issues...

    So it started 2 years ago when my brother didn't know what a power tailgate was- jerked and pulled it open and then slammed it shut. Since that weekend, when opening it every time it would get to its max height it would jerk violently. Closing would be fine. Didn't bother investigating because...
