    3V 5.4 performance build - What's a good shop?

    Yeah, and that was the point of this thread, to see who I should look at and who I should stay away from. Though it may stay stock as she's looking at getting an F450 to tow the horse trailer. Whatever, it's "her" money.

    3V 5.4 performance build - What's a good shop?

    Price isn't really the concern. She wants to keep her rig. About $3.50... Joking aside, it looks like the basic kits start at about $6K, and I was figuring another $3 - $6K on build and tune, and maybe $4K on trans rebuild, so maybe $15K give or take? If I have to go over $30K, then it might...

    3V 5.4 performance build - What's a good shop?

    My wife and have been talking about ordering a new Expedition Max. We have been for the last ~3 weeks. Yesterday she changed her mind, and would rather keep her 3rd gen. She also wants to be able to keep up with my modified MKS. Being semi-new to the Ford world (coming from BMW) I'm not sure...

    2007 Expedition EL - OEM alarm goes off when starting vehicle

    We have a 2007 Expedition EL that has the OEM alarm add-on, with the alarm indicator under the dash, next to the OBD port. Apparently this was a dealer installed option, and might be part of the remote keyless entry? In any event, on occasion when turning the key to the on position, the alarm...

    Ford and Corrosion Control?

    2012 Ford Expedition · Weight - 5,549 lbs 2012 BMW X5 · Weight - 4,960 lbs I wouldn't say it's a full size like the Expedition, but it's certainly more capable than an Explorer.

    Ford and Corrosion Control?

    I've owned... a few... BMWs over the years. One of the things that BMW does to minimize rust is plastic sheeting on the underside. My '08 535xit, '03 540iT, and '03 M5 all had this. Before we bought our second Expedition ('07 EL Limited) we looked at a few X5 5.0's, and they had this as well...

    Best case scenario for DTC P0741

    We had an '09 Limited that would didn't throw any trans related codes, but would hard down shift into 4th. I drive a lot between Seattle and Sacramento, so this was especially bad coming through the pass into California. We had the trans re-flashed under the TSB, and the problem lessened. I'm...

    Headlights, and other questions...

    Thanks for pissing in my pool, guys... :happy175: So it looks like I'm going to be following gixer2000's work very closely then. Are there any LCM changes that need to be made, or is the retrofit replacement (once completed) plug and play?

    Headlights, and other questions...

    Yeah, I pulled the VIN, it has the 3.73. The integrated trailer brake appears to become an option about 2015. I looked at retro-fitting, but the dash assembly is different, unless Ford just doesn't want to list the silver trim pieces around the center stack as a separate item. I'm not a huge...

    Headlights, and other questions...

    Hello all, I picked up 2007 Expedition EL Limited to replace a 2009 Expedition Limited that was totaled by a driver that ran a red light, and I have questions regarding headlights. - For those that have done HID projector conversions, what route did you choose? - Is it possible to convert...
