    Coolant leak from turbo line

    I know I’m reviving a very, very old thread, but… I admittedly created a coolant leak at the passenger rear of the engine when I changed the warped exhaust manifold on that side. ‍ My 2017 with the 3.5 EB has been sitting since July since I received wild quotes to remove the body or pull the...

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    After further discussions with Diode Dynamics they approved a return of all four bulbs for a full refund. They have never seen a pattern like mine either. The halogens seem fine, as far as pattern goes.

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    I haven’t tried putting the old halogens back in since the swap but that’s next on my list. The pattern was fine before the swap, just halogen dim. I have looked over the housings to see if I can find anything that looks damaged or abnormal. No debris or anything obvious to me. I’ve adjusted...

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    So I’ve had these several weeks now. I reported this issue to DD and they recommended a few things. 1) Bulbs fully seated? Yes 2) LED chips are parallel? Yes 3) Swapped bulbs from one housing to the next? Yes Result, same issue. So I guess it’s the OE housing causing this somehow? Does...

    Powered tow mirrors for 2017

    I installed these today. Hardest part was removing/installing the door panels. It’s interesting that even on the Trail Ridge site it says there are no products that fit my 2017. Yet, on the limited instructions that come with it, the cutoff year is 2017. [emoji2371] I had to put in 2015 to get...

    What did you do to the expy today

    Trail Ridge tow mirrors... New KYB rear struts. My original rear drivers side strut was leaking at just shy of 51000 miles. [emoji15] ...and rotated the tires. 2017 XLT 4x4

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    I did chat with DD this week about that weird pattern on the passenger side. They said to try checking the bulbs are locked in all the way on that side. Of course they mentioned the LED chips should be equally horizontal, which mine seem to be. I should have time this weekend to check that out...

    Powered tow mirrors for 2017

    I’m going to order these even though they aren’t power fold. The universal strap on mirrors just aren’t secure enough for me. https://www.1aauto.com/ford-expedition-lincoln-navigator-mirror-set-trail-ridge-tr00137/i/1amrp01649 2017 XLT 4x4

    Gorilla Glass for F-150, Fingers Crossed for Expy Too

    Dang! My wife’s 17 just got cracked tonight due to construction near us. Guess it’s OE for now since it’s right in the line of sight. My 13 Jeep windshield just got destroyed last week from the same construction mentioned above. I have $0 deductible glass coverage through State Farm and they...

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    My low beams were snug, but not impossible. The high beams seemed tighter but I was fighting with the edge hitting the housing, not to mention the access hole is more misaligned than the low beams. Hopefully you’ll hear back quickly. They were very responsive via email for me. Good luck...

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    I just installed all four Diode Dynamics headlight bulbs. The low beam fit perfectly but I had to “clearance” around where the dust cover attaches to the back of the housing to get the high beam bulbs to lock in. Not a big deal to me. A few minutes with a dremel and it’s all good. The driver...

    Powered tow mirrors for 2017

    I need to call this place I guess. Nothing, anywhere states proper fit for a 2017.

    Not yet. I just ordered them yesterday. I am definitely looking forward to receiving and installing them though!

    2017 Expy Can you upgrade from halogen to HID headlights

    Oh, and I ordered a set of highs and lows for my reflector style housings. After pulling our travel trailer home in the dark and rain last night, I knew it was time to do something better.

    Here are my reflector style if that helps. I sent an email to Diode Dynamics last night and had this reply already... Bryan, Thanks for reaching out! Do you have a Projector or a Reflector? Projector: https://www.diodedynamics.com/low-beam-led-headlight-for-2015-2017-ford-expedition.html...

    2017 rear wiper, a bit of a unicorn...

    Thank you! I had wondered about doing a swap like this to make life easier for something that should be simple. I saved it to my Expedition list on Amazon. When I wear the OE blades I just bought, I will get this done! [emoji1303]

    2017 rear wiper, a bit of a unicorn...

    ...at least within my area. According to my local dealer, Autozone, Oreilly’s and Napa, the rear arm changed from ‘16 to ‘17 and then again in ‘18. Every place local to me, including the dealer, said they had two in stock when I called. None of them did! [emoji849] It took me two hours and...

    Sounds like something I did when I was a teenager wrenching on my first vehicle. Thanks?

    Brake hardware torque specs

    The 2017 we bought recently clearly had new brakes installed by the dealer on the front. The rears are probably original, the truck was a rental, sitting at 42000 miles and they are definitely in need of attention. I would like to disassemble the front brakes to make sure they were installed...

    Help adding 7 pin to ‘17 XLT 4x4

    Gotcha. Makes sense. I was starting to feel a little crazier than normal! Ha ha!

    Help adding 7 pin to ‘17 XLT 4x4

    Anyone have a source for the $40 OE brake controller mentioned above? All I see are $80-$100. If that’s the price, I’m ok with it. But if there is a less expensive source, I’d jump on it. The Tekonsha P3 I have is nice but I still haven’t mounted it. No need to put holes in the dash if I don’t...
