    This forum got real slow and is acting very wonky

    Sometimes the home page pops up instead of what I clicked on and wait 35 second messages also. My other forums are fine. I barely was able to write this.

    Stuck in park !

    I saw the videos on this problem and most were for earlier earlier models than my '07, also they mostly said it was just a brake light switch. My brake lights work fine so it looks like it's not the switch. I was parked 3 miles away and it was 25*f out and it stuck but after a few turns of the...

    Added LED puddle lights at under $10 for both, total.

    I kinda' liked the soft yellow look of the stock ones but they really didn't do anything. These are actually functional............very.

    I can't find leveling spacers for my 2007 4wd Navigator front.......anybody?

    I wanted to add some 1 1/2" spacers to the front and thought the front end was the same as an Expedition but everyone that sells them says they won't fit the Navi. I had 6 or 7 sellers say they won't fit but none of them know why.

    Changed spark plugs in the 2007 5.4 today (140k miles).

    The original plugs in 2004 to 2008 were prone to breaking but I ran 2 cans of Seafoam in 1/4 tank hard for a week and then cracked them open a bit and added some Liquid Wrench to the holes where the plugs were, let it sit for and hour and took them out without breaking any. I had to use the...

    How to install a real oil pressure gauge in a 5.4 (with pictures)

    I tried to hook it up directly to the engine but couldn't find the right adapter. The only sandwich adapter that you will want is the one with all 1/8" NPT ports. Most of them come with oil cooler ports that you will have to block off and 1 NPT. The sleeve in the stock mount stays in there and...

    Electric running boards won't go all the way up.

    Both sides have a 1" gap full length on both sides when up. They are very clean, well lubed, hinges fold flat, but come to a hard stop an inch from the top and pushing on them does nothing.

    Tried to install real oil pressure gauge

    I was going to put the sender in the stock "sender" location but the threads on the stock sender are a 14mm metric pipe thread which needs to adapt to a 1/8" NPT. I couldn't find that adapter and tried to cut the straight 14mm down for an about an hour to get it to work but was afraid to mess up...

    Changed my oil today..............

    My new to me '07 Navigator finally approached the 5k mile change time since the seller had just changed it but when I went to remove the pan plug it had sealer around it and I had to get out the breaker bar, and luckily it wasn't stripped. Then the off brand oil filter was on so tight I had to...

    Transmission failure scare.

    I started the '07 Navi today and it showed the wicked wrench icon so I backed it out but then it would only drive in third gear even if I manually shifted it. I got my OBDII code reader out and it showed 2 MAF sensor codes. I popped the hood and I had forgotten to replace the MAF wires when I...

    Has anyone installed a real oil pressure aftermarket gauge for the 5.4 ?

    As many know the oil gauge is just an idiot light in disguise. I plan to install one on my 5.4 when the parts come in and do a write up with pictures but I was wondering what others have done in if anything.

    Locking the VCT compromises entire HP rpm range, reduces MPG's, and adds to smog.

    From what I read the thread title is true and the price of VCT's (variable cam timers) have come down and it's just a matter of removing a valve cover and securing the timing chain (easy) to replace one with no after tuning. Some say a special tuner will "make up" for any disabling of the VCT'S...

    Car Fax - Does it really give you much info about the vehicle ?

    I never saw one but from what I gather it doesn't show trips to the local garage etc.

    Is it worth it to install a remote starter in the 3rd gen models?

    I really would like to have one but I really hate the idea of hacking into the wiring even if a "pro" does it.

    Does Forescan work with the 2007 Expeditions ?

    Lokiwolf said yes but it is limited, I just want some other opinions also. I bought a Dell latitude laptop just so I could use Forescan but now I am thinking about selling it. Some sellers of the scanner say it works and some don't.

    Running boards won't close all the way (1" gap on both sides). With pictures

    They are saturated with penetrating oil but that didn't help. When I bought it a month ago they were fine.

    Melling oil pumps are a waste of time and money.

    People are always coming up with something and convincing everyone they need it, those cone shaped air filters by K & N are a good example. People buy stuff that actually screws up their vehicle it and lowers the resale value, and those VCT jammers are another example. Those aftermarket oil...

    Fixed my non-closing tailgate door in 2007 Navigator (bounce back).

    I started a thread about this and nobody replied. I put new struts in it and the door bounced back 8" before closing. After some research I took the fuse out for the door and put it back in which "trained" the computer for the rear hatch door so now it works and they even sent another set of...

    DVD won't eject from 2007 Navigator THX radio

    I bought this truck a month ago and got all the crummy cd's out but there is a fonky Christmas DVD in there that won't come out. I assume the eject button is on the top right above where it says load. I looked in the manual but didn't see much about it. Also, is there a DVD that runs the...

    Put new rear hatch door struts in but now get bounce back

    The power liftgate goes down all but 8" from closing and then opens back up. If I push on it a little it will close after 3 or 4 tries. Aftermarket struts from Ebay.

    Passenger window bounce back on 2007 Navigator

    I assume the Expedition is the same but when I put a regulator in my "new to me" Navigator door it worked fine for a couple days but now the window hits the top and then comes back down 3 inches. If I fiddle with it for a while I can get it closed.

    Electric running boards don't go all the way up.

    They both have a 3/4" gap when up (and sometimes 1") but the hinges are clean and well oiled, plus we don't have a rust problem here in California.
