    Any tips for first time DIY oil change on 2020 Expedition 3.5?

    I believe most people recommend 5k mile oil changes for keeping the turbos clean/happy...I do 5k because it's easy to track on my odometer. I've always done full-synthetic and the price difference isn't much for the peace of mind (to me.)

    SSM 51346 - 2022-2023 Expedition - Liftgate Spoiler Contacting Roof In Freezing Temperatures - Released February 07, 2023

    Just to confirm, you have already taken it to a Dealer and they rejected the repair as warranty?

    OEM Running Boards Detaching

    Another option may have been to use a heavy duty epoxy to secure them back into the running boards. But that may be impossible or extremely difficult now that their hammered in. We've used something like that on certain aircraft fasteners in areas that are lower stress.

    OEM Running Boards Detaching

    Do you see any threads in the holes? It looks, from your photos, the actual thread inserts have been pulled from the attach/secure area and are now located on the bolts. That would take a lot of weight/pressure to pull those bolts out along with the thread inserts.

    22 trailer brake controller

    In the back of the Service Manual it will show the locations of the wire harness and the connectors. Here is an image for the 18-21 I took a screen grab for...maybe someone with the '22 will help you.

    Not too happy with 2024 Expedition

    I think you're going to find some owners have no problems or very minor issues with their newer ('22 & later) Expy's. It sounds like some of the issues you mention should have been seen/known before you purchased (ASS and automatic rear windows). The transmission issue you mention should be...

    Fantastic. Thanks for sharing, I'm sure this will help a lot of '22 owners.

    Are you able to share any pics and info for which pin on the back of the switch and the module you used the jumper wire?

    I'm sure you've probably already checked the obvious, but look for any obstructions in the tracks and lubrication is your friend.

    Wattage max?

    We've used ours a few times while keeping food warm, which works great for the short trips across town. I've also used them for charging several drone batteries at the same time while out on a job. It has come in handy several times.

    5 to 3 harsh downshift only after warmed up is fixed after dealer replacing the valve body

    Wow...nice to hear a Tech took the time to troubleshoot the issue and fix the problem. Glad it's working for ya now. The value in this kind of service is what keeps customers, not a few dollar discount on an already inflated MSRP.

    That's pretty pricey to get the second row bench protection on the back of the seats :D But they do look heavy duty.

    2nd row bench seatback protector

    I received the set a couple of weeks ago and finally installed them. As sjwhiteley stated, they are well made and fit each seat back individually so you can move/fold each seat as you need. The covers are clearly labeled so you will be able to easily identify which cover goes on which seat...

    19 strange running hot issue.

    Did you have any of these problems before you added the aftermarket trans cooler? What kind and brand of trans cooler did you add? Is it blocking any airflow? Is it tied into the engine coolant or air cooled? Maybe remove the aftermarket trans cooler, go back to stock and see if that fixes...

    Temperature gauge behaviour

    Hmmm...I think my 2019 will show Trans temp on the 'My View' also, but I definitely monitor the digital readouts of my transmission and coolant temps with Forscan mod.

    Horn Cover Cracked

    They don't need to replace the entire steering wheel, that's overkill and overpriced. Only the Steering Wheel Air Bag Module (Part #: FL3Z15043B13AF) needs replaced...much cheaper. See here...
