    Loss of power during acceleration

    Yes, a few times I have had the rock tumbler noise but not always. I took it in for service, and the transmission tech said that there is a known defect that causes metal-on-metal wear. The metal shavings loose in the transmission are occasionally blocking valves and causing the symptoms I...

    How many Miles on your 4th Gen Expedition

    Cupholder fell through console! Weird!!!

    While taking mine apart, I lost one of the clips that holds the LED to the bottom of the cup holder. It dropped when I popped it off and went under the storage compartment. I am not getting it without pulling a lot of bolts. I have it zip tied for now but I would like to get the right part back...

    Loss of power during acceleration

    I got the work scheduled for the TSB and I have Forscan. Any recommendation on what PIDs to record? It goes by very fast and only happens once a month or so. I would want to set up a log to run when I am towing to hope to catch it.

    Armor/skid plates - 4th Gen Expedition Max

    1/8 aluminum does not seem like a very effective skid plate for a full size SUV. Jeep skid plates often use 3/16 steel, and Jeeps are much lighter.

    Loss of power during acceleration

    I am experiencing occasional loss of power when accelerating. Mostly when towing but occasionally also when not towing. There are two different scenarios I am experiencing. The first one is transmission related. When I start to accelerate, the transmission tries to downshift, misses the...

    How many Miles on your 4th Gen Expedition

    2019, 85K. I've had the cam phasers replaced, the rear diff serviced, the moonroof replaced, and the rear windshield wiper fluid tubing replaced. I have not had to have it in for service in quite a while now. I am hoping that I have gremlins worked out and can put another 85K on it before buying...

    Phaser cam

    I had to wait 8 months for mine. It was for the cam phasers to be shipped, not gaskets. I talked to Ford customer support the best I could get was a signed letter that they would cover the warranty at 100% if I were to go over 65K miles while waiting.

    My turn now for Cam phaser replacement on my 2019, need your feedback?

    I only put 91 in mine, 93 is not available in CO, and it still developed the rattle.

    Towing and 10 speed transmission

    I also live in Colorado and tow a similar trailer. Grand Design Imagine 2400BH 28-foot box and in the low 7000s loaded. When I first started out I manually shifted when going down grades. For the last two years, I have just been putting it in Tow Haul mode and leaving it. I very rarely find...

    Load Leveling Suspension

    If you are hauling a load that is heavy enough to create a concerning amount of sag you should look into a weight-distribution hitch instead. Load leveling will not put weight back onto the steer axle like a WDH will.

    Cam Phaser Warranty Coverage and Backordered Parts

    I am in line for the cam phaser repair for my 2019 Expedition. I am at 59K on the odometer and likely to hit 70K this summer. I have been on the waiting list since October and am still 18th in line at my local dealership. I am worried I am going to hit 70K and start losing warranty coverage...

    Tow Upgrades and Guidance - 2021 Expedition XLT

    Besides the content of the max tow package switching to LT tires with an E load rating really helped my towing experience. The stiffer sidewalls and high PSI helped reduce sway when pulling in heavy wind.

    Stranded again.

    I have been pretty frustrated with the reliability of mine and started looking at the alternatives. I was left pretty underwhelmed with the competition. All of the GM engines in the Tahoe/Suburban have some pretty serious issues right now. The gas engines had a bad set of lifters/rods that...

    2023 Sequoia

    The LX600 has a terrible payload capacity in anything but the base model with two-row seating. Something to keep in mind if you need it to work now and then.

    RWD Only in Snow

    Are you going into the mountains or staying in the metro area? In town the weather is pretty mild most of the time with the occasional snowstorm, you should be fine just avoid driving on the day of a storm or buy chains if snow is forecasted and you need to drive every day. If you are going...

    2020 Ford Expedition FX4 water leak passenger side

    Yes, mine had a drip there, turned out that the rear window washer line runs inside the cab along the passenger side. The tube had become disconnected at the firewall and emptied the contents of the washer fluid tank onto the passenger floor. There is a dip in the floor between the seats and...

    Weight Distribution Hitch Sway Control for V-nose enclosed trailer

    I have a BlueOx Sway Pro on my travel trailer and really like it for but I am not sure it will fit criteria 4 for you. Not sure how you will be able to not drill and use a WDH. The bars are an inescapable aspect of weight distribution and they need a mounting point on the nose of the trailer.
