    Rear window sprayer hose routing

    My old 08 rear washer hose came apart just inside the firewall, close to the RH fuse panel. The washer pump had been replaced and they must have pulled the hose. I opened the access to the fuse panel and found both ends of front and rear hoses. Reconnect and good to go. I found diagrams...

    Ford Expedition has water leaking in second row after a rainy day help

    Do you run rear A/C on high/coldest setting? Mine would sweat on outside and at vents during high humid days. I turned A/C back, warmer, for rear and colder from front vents, balancing air flow. Now no humidity problems.

    Tire time...

    Is the 27 months on the tires or the ford? Not that it is important, just curious. Low mileage tires, dry rotted, I'd take them to dealer for adjusting. Maybe at least new tire discount. That will tell you a lot about dealer for future service.

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    All I know is the tank took 28 gallons and started dumping gas on the ground. Before the fuel nozzle would shut off and not allow more gas to pump when tank is full. Now it will let me dump all I want onto the ground. I only saw the one hose that was loose but couldn't see on top of the tank...

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    The body mounts were changed along with the right rear shock mount. Car drives like it only has 60,000 miles on it. Oh! Wait! It does only have 60,000 miles on it. Now, after trying to fill the fuel tank the gas pump would not shut off but I saw gas running on the ground. ****! Something...

    2017 Ford Expedition Electrical Problem

    At least you didn't catch fire. I had a Chevy and the handbrake light wire was run under the driver's seat. It was held in place by a sheet metal clip spotwelded to the floor. The sharpe edge cut wire insulation. I parked, set the handbrake and went inside. Someone yelled the car was...

    Rough running / misfiring?

    My rough running was due to loose hose clamps on intake from filter to motor. Tightened the two clamps and now sensors sense and motor is smooth.

    My 5.4L saga ...

    It could be something simple. Maybe! My motor was cutting out on acceleration. So many things to cause the problem but a few turns of a screwdriver to tighten the intake clamps from air cleaner to manifold and now the sensors sense and the motor runs smooth. The oil change with a new air...

    Short oil life?

    Inflation is here and growing. Two Arby's roast beef, med fries, two milkshakes $27 and some change. Eating out is got to pay those high wages somehow. Might be better to eat at home or cut down to one meal a day.

    If ******** got the thermostat wrong why trust that he got the gasket right? Could a wrong gasket give your same problems?

    2017 Ford Expedition Electrical Problem

    My 08 would kill battery over night. I recharged battery and battery died again. I listened and heard the radio trying to load a music CD. It would not stop, even with key off. I finally got all CDs out, the searches stopped. No more problems and I do not use the CD player. Seems a crazy...

    Maybe Ford is refusing to do anything until they go bankrupt and sell out to Fiat. ;)

    Best 3rd Gen to tow with?

    My O8 has been great towing 6500. I did have equalizer hitch and anti-sway bars. Never knew it was back there unless I had to panic stop.

    Ford field service action number 21B10

    My dealer did finally install the new body mounts and a shock absorber mount. The chock mount was the knocking My wife kept telling me it was from a loose/bad shock. She was right.

    Tires question

    Sounds like cheap quality tires. Increase tire pressures to see if sidewall flex is reduced. Cheapo tires give cheapo ride.

    Dealership matters - my cam phaser saga

    At least they haven't stolen parts from your vehicles. Yet. My headlights developed haze in a matter of hours. I have marked parts for future identification. I do inspections before leaving after even a oil change.

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    No call telling me costs, appointment time or anything. I drove to dealership to see what is happening and was told no total costs were added, yet. While I stood there the numbers came together, like magic. Total is to be $1,050.00. No idea when parts will be in to do the work because bolts...

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    At dealership at 8:30 to have car "inspected". Sure enough "all eight bushings need replaced". No surprise there. Now waiting for a phone call of costs and time. Dealership seemed like a ghost town. New cars limited. No one car on the showroom floor. The usual line checking in was just...

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    I just checked mileage on this Expedition. It is less than 60,000. One of two things. Ford made this a crappy car or the speedometer has been changed.

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    I went to local Ford Dealership. They seem to be extra busy or extra shorthanded. They gave me an appointment to have someone look at my car, next Tuesday at 8:30. Seems all dealers are shorthanded. She did check Amazon for parts, which surprised me. Said cost was about $190. She mentioned...

    costs to install new body mounts, 2008 XLT ??

    I heard knocking. Thought it was inside but could not find it. Looked under body and body mounts have no rubber. What was left crumbled in my hand. What should costs be to replace these? I think there are six? Part numbers? Better to go rubber or poly? Thanks!

    Pretty funny slash awesome security feature...

    If everyone can drive with a bomb in steering wheels, why can't a gun be mounted in driver's seats to kill unwanted divers? Slaughter by remote control.
