    New turbo manifolds

    So my Full-Race turbo manifolds just arrived and I thought I would share some pics. I'm supposed to get them installed sometime during the next week. Unfortunately, because I have a leak on one side I won't be able to provide any quantifiable comparison with the original parts. But I'll let...

    Hybrid Expedition & Navigator

    https://fordauthority.com/2023/10/ford-expedition-and-lincoln-navigator-hybrids-are-on-the-way/ According to Ford Authority, Ford will begin producing hybrid versions of the Expedition and Navigator. I figured this would happen when they did a full refresh, but glad to see some confirmation...

    Full Race Turbo + Manifold Upgrade Kit

    There was recently some discussion about leaking turbo manifolds and options for repair. CRP, BD Diesel, and Full-Race all came up as vendors with potential fixes. After doing some additional reading on other forums, it seems some people have experienced repeated failures with the CRP, seemingly...

    Dead battery and locked out with no key?

    My wife tried to leave this afternoon, but the Expedition battery had died. You would think, no problem use the physical key to unlock the door and give it a jumpstart. Unfortunately, we discovered that the one physical key we had would not unlock the door, so we had no way to pop the hood and...

    2017 EL OBD Codes P0019 and P0299

    2017 Expedition EL Limited w/ 139,000 miles. I just returned from a ~1,400 trip from the Houston region to Panama City, FL, during which we towed my 7,000 lb camper. On the outbound trip, the engine threw a code for P0299 - Turbocharger A underboost. I didn't notice any change to engine...

    Sync 3.4 and FordPass Compatibility

    Is anyone running Sync 3.4.xxxxx and Fordpass? I have 21194 and none of the FordPass features are available, such as remote lock/unlock, etc. They were available for awhile, but I don't recall specifically when it stopped working. I had a new modem installed on a different Focus vehicle, and I'm...

    Service AdvanceTrac Troubleshooting

    Hi all, I'm getting various AdvanceTrac errors. The closest thing I've had to service is tire rotation. The warning is coming on intermittently. For awhile it became infrequent, then today it came back with a vengeance and ABS + stability control were disabled. I pulled the codes in Forscan. I'm...

    2022 Navigator

    Looks like info on the 2022 Navigator is beginning to be released. Interestingly, it lost 10 horsepower. I think Ford is just creating some headroom for a hybrid trim. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a37272952/2022-lincoln-navigator-updates/

    2017 EL Limited Rear Strut Replacement

    Thought I would briefly share my experience swapping out the OE rear struts on my 2017 EL. For context, this vehicle has seen 10 - 20,000 miles towing over the past 3 years. I think the towing wore out the rear struts, because the fronts seem fine. The rear was bobbing and bouncing over bad...

    F150 Lightning Reveal

    Looks like Ford will have another home run on its hands. They're really on a roll with this F150 Hybrid, Mach E, Bronco, and now the F-150 lightning. 300 miles of range (not really enough for towing long distance, but great for fleets and short tripping) 10K towing 52K for the XLT trim Yuuuuuge...

    Ecoboost engine burning fluids

    So, it appears that my 2017 Ecoboost engine is burning oil or coolant. There is substantial smoke from the exhaust on startup. Initially a light puff, then a heavy cloud of smoke after 5 - 10 seconds, then a continuous light cloud of white smoke. I suspect the turbo may be leaking fluids into...

    Probably a Missed Opportunity from Ford

    So, SVT prototyped an Expedition bodied version of the F150 Lightning. Sorry it never came to fruition.

    Ford swapping Sync for Android

    Didn't see this posted anywhere. Personally, I think it's great. Google drives software development advances much more quickly than Ford. And with the advent of improved autonomous driving features, perhaps we'll see some Waymo tech on future Ford vehicles. I'm surprised the new Mach-E does not...

    Reverse camera distortion

    Good evening everyone. A strange problem cropped up with the reverse camera in my 2017 EL. When I shift into reverse, the picture is now badly distorted. I am unsure what may have caused the problem. Has anyone ever seen this issue?
