    Driver window stuck motor appears to work

    As stated above the other components of the regulator are probably aging and wearing at the same rate as the cable. I had a 2010 and had to replace both the passenger and driver’s side regulators over the 7 years I had the truck. Drivers side unit was about $135. If I put the rod for the door...

    2017 Expedition EL Limited constant bluetooth disconnection/reconnection

    I had a 2010 for 7 yrs and never had an issue. I picked up my 2016 in January and it worked fine for the first month or so and then the system dropped the connection on the middle of a call and was stuck until I reset it. After that it would randomly (but frequently) drop the connection playing...

    MOVED: New member from Michigan

    I have to ask the simple question first? How much is it raining when you use the intermittent wipers? I did the same thing with my 2010 when I first got it. It was drizzling and I turned them on and it would wipe once, I turned it up a notch and it did the same thing so I just moved them to the...

    Securing large heavy cargo in the back

    I don’t want to come off like a smart a$$, but wouldn’t it be easier to rent a trailer vs putting a lot of work into the truck? The last post gave me a flash back to a job I had in 1999. Another guy and I were installing backup power supplies for telecom systems prepping for the big Y2K panic...

    Instrument Cluster Lamps too dim 2013 XLT

    That same control knob you mentioned was broken on my 2010, It only worked in one position at full brightness, if I touched it at all it would dim all the way

    Apologies in advance but another paint question.

    Hey all, So I’m on my 3rd expedition (2016 limited), up until recently I had a 2010 EB that I drove for 7 yrs, like millions of other Expy’s it had flaking paint on the rear lift gate and about a quarter sized spot on the very front of the hood. The lift gate had bubbling when I bought the...

    Random misfire no code

    Maybe check for any kind of fluid pooling on or around the coils and plug wells. I used to have a 2010 EB with 142k on it and a leaky coolant line is what started my misfire problem. It was sporadic at first then the line blew out and dumped a heavy dose of coolant onto the motor. I only had the...

    2010 FORD EXPEDITION lock Door weird problem

    Just so I understand, you’re saying the driver side internal lock control does not work? You can lock it from outside with the keyboard and you swapped in a known working switch and it does the same thing? And the “broken” one works in the other truck as well. When you say it doesn’t work is...

    Expy #3

    Thanks for that

    Expy #3

    I’m looking into the recalls to see if there’s record of them being completed. From the little I’ve read into it I’m seeing info about the blower motor, what else was recalled on this model year? Maybe my internet search skills are not as good as I thought or I’m just using the wrong key words.

    Another 17 Expy Platinum - bulb question

    I can appreciate that, the only thing I can say is it’s probably a one time buy and there’s 4 bulbs.

    Another 17 Expy Platinum - bulb question

    Im not sure what you consider breaking the bank, but I just picked up my 3rd expedition (2016 Limited) and I’m going to put these is. I had these in my 2010 EB and I also have one in my motorcycle for over 5 yrs now...

    Expy #3

    Went easy on the doughnuts but still had a little fun, they don’t plow the entire grounds of the old Philadelphia Naval base.

    Expy #3

    Thanks, and happy to say I got another $2K knocked off that sticker price AND still got a 3yr warranty. The dealership I found this at is just under 40 miles from home, my appreciatiaton already started just on the ride home! My wife has an eco boost in her 2013 Taurus so it’s not my first...

    Expy #3

    What’s up everyone, just wanted to share with a group of likeminded individuals. This past weekend I picked up my 3rd Expedition, this time it’s a 2016 Limited. I’m excited of course but it’s a tad bittersweet as I had to part with my 2010 EB, but unfortunately (although it served me well) it...

    Front AC blower not working

    I guess this is a common issue, it was really intermittent until recently. Bought the combo pack (resistor and harness) but only changed the harness and it’s been working for a couple weeks and it’s been in the 90’s for the most part so it’s been working on full blast. Looks to me like it’s an...

    Lug nut removal

    I was looking at these extractors, the new lugs are 21mm, a 20mm socket fits on the two old lugs that are stuck but so far I broke the ratchet handle trying with that. Will the 19mm extractor cut into these? I ask because I’ve seen multiple sets and the all seem to skip “20mm”,

    Lug nut removal

    The stuck lugs are on the rear passenger side wheel. I had the front brakes done. He was willing to do it but I wanted to see what options I had out there to and give him a little less money. He said “I’d most likely drill them out”. To me that means “I get to charge you to take the tire off and...

    Lug nut removal

    The outer caps for the two nuts are gone, what you’re seeing in the pic are the severely gnarled inner bolts of the OEM nut. It appears they tried to “hammer on” undersized sockets with no luck leaving not much to work with. That’s why I’m questioning if there are any specific stripped nut...

    Lug nut removal

    What’s up all, I have a 2010 EB and ran into the dreaded lug nut issue. I recently went to get my tires rotated and balanced and the quick shop guy couldn’t get the rear passenger side tire off. So I did some research here on the forum and went ahead and ordered a set of the gorilla lugs. I...

    OBD codes

    I had them run diagnostics again, they also mentioned fuel quality for the P2098 code. For the P0011 he suspected the solenoid and showed me what he’d need to do replace it. He also said he’s seen these “act up” and then be fine for miles after. I told him to get me a price and I’ll get back to...

    OBD codes

    What’s up all, Last week coming back from a surf-fishing trip my engine light came on. Every once in a while the light will come on and I’ll throw on my scanner and I’ll see the code P2098 with no noticeable change in the vehicles behavior. The light always seems to clear on its own relatively...

    Stripped chrome lug nuts

    This is good info, I did not realize this was a common issue I just thought the guys who did a plug on a rear tire didn’t know what he was doing because he knarled up one nut pretty bad. When I ended up getting new tires they didn’t seem to have any problems getting the wheels off. Maybe I’ll...

    Gave the Expedition a new look

    it certainly is, that’s where the big fish live!! It’s also the reason the truck gets a full undercarriage wash after every trip. I wasn’t as wise when I had my 01 expedition and it rusted out pretty bad. So far this truck is holding up much better. Believe it or not the road salt and brine mix...

    Gave the Expedition a new look

    Exactly. I want the truck to look “clean” but I bought it to A. Move people B. Handle northeast winters C. Drive on the beach to fish, so 20’ rims give me enough tire to handle the non-paved surfaces. It’s gotta be like me, capable of doing the hard work but cleans up good! Lol
