2017 3.5 Ecoboost Canister vent valve location
Did you ever figure this one out? According to the service manual, the canister vent valve is attached to the canister itself, located just in front of the gas tank. Since P0442 is only set under vacuum, it may be a little harder to find with a smoke tester, but any pinhole leak of ~1mm/0.04in...- Steve Tanner

2017 Front AC Evaporator Replacement - Full Dash Removal?
Update on my AC evaporator issue. I was hoping to limp through summer topping it off since a 12oz can of refrigerant lasted about 2 months. Now it's down to less than a week, so I've been getting quotes from local shops. Lowest so far is $1990+tax. One interesting thing that my usual shop guy...- Steve Tanner

2017 Front AC Evaporator Replacement - Full Dash Removal?
On my 2017 XLT EL about a month ago, I noticed that I could hear refrigerant moving through the rear AC expansion valve pretty loudly, like it was wide-open. This seemed unusual since it was pretty cool outside (Phoenix AZ, it's never really "cold") and you don't typically hear refrigerant like...- Steve Tanner

2017 Expedition w/ 3.5 Ecoboost -- engine sounds? (video included)
I think the phone audio is amplifying things strangely, but honestly that sounds exactly like my 2017 with 73k on it. It's just as Timo2824 said - high pressure fuel pump + injectors. I was concerned when we first got it because I thought it sounded a bit "diesel-y", but every '15-'17 I have...- Steve Tanner

Gen 3.5 owners.... any regrets
Had an 07' XLT 2WD for ~10 years. Had to replace the entire AC system, fan clutch twice, leaked coolant into the plug wells and ruined 2 COPs (passenger side). It cracked a plug (driver's side) driving from AZ to CO at ~65k miles so I had to pay the dealership in Boulder $900 to replace 8 spark...- Steve Tanner

Reverse camera distortion
Had the exact same issue with my 2017 EL about 6 months ago. It would come and go if the back was shut hard.The dealer said it was caused by "moisture in one of the connections" (in Phoenix...riiiight), but I'm not sure which as they opened and cleaned all of them between the front and back...- Steve Tanner

Front AC blower not working
My '17 EL just started doing the same thing so I came here to look. Blower won't come on, kick under the glove box and it starts up, etc. I thought it might be the motor since it is really loud on the higher speeds (separate problem - anyone else have this?). I got under there to look at it...- Steve Tanner

Wrong Throttle Body in 2017 XLT EL?
Long-time lurker here, finally had something curious enough (to me, at least) to post about. I bought a 2017 XLT EL back in November with 49k on it after our 2007 XLT got totaled. It was a rental, but looked and even still smells new. Not even two years old, as it was initially manufactured in...- Steve Tanner
