    driveline bind

    I have 2016 EL 4x4 with 50K. At 46K, I began noticing a "binding" or "shudder" at slow turns - left or right - particularly when cold. Never felt it driving straight. I at first thought it was dragging brake caliper. After 3K miles of this progressively worse "shudder" and lots of...

    Update: I continued to receive the "Service Advancetrac" and "Hill Descent Control Faults" on the dash and that rumbling/grinding/shuddering during turns at slow speed had gotten progressively worse since last summer. I finally made an appointment with the Dealer for January 23, 2020 to have...

    Turbo coolant leak issue now on wifes 2016

    I wasn't looking for your invoice as I am not questioning the fix you received. I just googled the part number you mentioned out of my own curiosity and found it odd that it was a discontinued part number for a part used on 2016-2018 EXPY and Transit models. Was wondering if I needed such a fix...

    Sorry, this is a long one... I have a '16 XLT EL I purchased "used" in September of 2016 with 22K miles on in. It had a clean carfax and was a rental. It has been a great truck until some recent issues that are now causing me to question the reliability of it. The truck now has 45K on it. The...

    Drawer build...

    What a great job!! I have been wanting to make a drawer platform for my '16 EL for 2 dog crates too! A couple questions if you do not mind: What are the dimensions, and is it attached to the floor in anyway? The lack of cargo tie downs in this truck is still unbelievable to me. At least with...
