    2018 Expedition Transmission overfilled by Dealer and resulting issues

    What kind of transmission service costs $675.00? For 675 they should have changed transmission fluid, transfer case, front and rear axles.

    48,800km (30,000mi) and $2,200 for Pads and Rotors Replacement Quote from Dealer

    Dealerships are a rip off when it comes to brakes. The markup is unbelievable.

    "Electronic Limited Slip Differential Reduced Torque" - Warning message. Used my Spare, msg now comes on periodically after replacing rear tires.

    If you have 4WD / AWD you should always change tires in complete sets. The differences in tread is enough to cause these issues not to mention it throws your transfer case into convulsions with differently sized tires. I have replaced a customers transfer case on an AWD vehicle due to many...

    Is an aftermarket intercooler really worth it for towing??

    You are way Your over thinking this way to much. It's a very simple solution, unplug the louvers if you want them open the whole time Those louvers open and close to improve aerodynamics on the vehicle and that is the only reason they are there. If you are happy with the performance as you...

    2022 10R80 Transmission Clunky

    2021 expedition 4 x 4 platinum and mine does the same thing. I took it in and surprise surprise no issue found. put the vehicle in neutral and press the gas to rev the engine and it clunks as well. I put the vehicle in neutral one time doing around 35 mph and pushed the gas. Why would a...

    Engine temp spikes on highway

    I would guess there is air trapped in the system possibly. Some vehicles have a very specific bleed procedure to get the air out. If it is not air in the system is it possible the automatic louvers are acting up behind the front grill? I know on our expedition it has computer controlled...

    Shuddering hesitation

    You are welcome, I hope it is something else that is more easily repairable and not the torque converter giving you issues.

    Shuddering hesitation

    The way you describe the issue, light on the pedal on a slight incline around 30-40mph is a classic symptom of the torque converter going in and out of lockup. Push your tow / haul mode button or knob and drive the same spot where the problem originally occurred if it goes away and you can't...

    How to disable outside mirror lights with rear liftgate open

    Anyone been to a drive in with the rear lift gate open and no way to turn the outside mirror lights off? Just thought I would throw this question out there... I've spent the entire time being that guy at the drive in who can't figure out how to shut these damn lights off. I forgot the black...

    Am I pushing payload capacity too much?

    Yes ford posts a maximum tow rating and a maximum payload. When you approach the maximums you are stressing the systems that were engineered. When you use overhead lifting equipment and straps / slings, you don't pick the smallest strap rated at the same weight as the object you are lifting...

    Am I pushing payload capacity too much?

    Reading through all the posts, it seems a lot of you really question whether or not you are overloading your rigs or to close to the maximum. I go by the 80/20 rule. If it's not a super long trip I may push it a little higher. Maxing out on the ratings will not only cause your brakes...

    First Road Trip

    They are good long road trip vehicles and it has the best interior versus the suburban, yukon xl. My only complaint is that I have yet to fix the whistling noise from the drivers side mirror that annoys me. Gas mileage is also not that great unless you run premium, but than again like I tell...

    Best Roof Box for 2022 Expedition Limited Max

    I have the largest box that summit racing carried. The summit racing brand one. I like it because it doesn't restrict the moonroof / sunroof and has more than enough storage capacity. Only drawback is that it acts like an air brake and decreases the MPG slightly, but than again I didn't buy...

    Middle Roof Crossbar

    I moved the crossbars to the rear as others stated. When the holes don't line up in the cargo box i just drilled new holes in that matched the spacing with crossbars towards the rear.

    First major upgrade

    Awesome! Better intercooler = more dense air charge = more fuel, more power and more efficiency. Absolutely yes an upgraded intercooler can increase the MPG, because the engine is running more efficiently.

    Front Brake Pad Replacement - Gen4

    Front brakes do 70% of the braking and rears usually only do about 30%. The rear pads end up getting stuck in their holders since they don't get used as much. This is common with a lot of manufacturers. Honda rear brakes sometimes were gone after 20,000 miles. The best way to prevent the...

    Think wheel bearings are starting to fail

    Overtightening wheel lug nuts will cause wheel bearings to wear out prematurely as well. Techs (part changers)(I used to be one) using impacts on lug nuts is a horrible practice. I always ran the lug nuts down on low torque until they seated. Went back with a torque wrench for final...

    2022 Expedition Brake Controller

    I would buy a 3rd party brake controller (better than Fords factory one) and wire it in. There should be a blue wire somewhere under the dash labeled "brake". It won't be connected to anything, just a blue wire taped up that is clearly labeled. That is the blue wire needed for the brake...

    Has anyone had the ticking turbo/wastegate actuator replaced under warranty?

    I took mine in for the same issue you are stating. I was dealing with Ford and they told me because it is not throwing a code or causing any drivability issues that they would NOT replace the turbos. I was pissed off as well, so pissed off that I traded it in and got a 2022 because my wife...

    2nd expedition, traded 2020 for 2021

    Hello all, Just wanted to update you that the waste gate rattling issue is not present on the 2021 with 7,000 miles like it was on the 2020. I talked to ford directly when we owned the 2020 and they refused to fix it. If my wife wasn't in love with the car I would have got rid of it all...

    Replacing Hankooks- how many miles?

    28,000 and tires slip with a little rain if the pedal is pushed a little to hard. Buying new tires for the 22" rims that aren't as low of a profile. With the pot holes in the northeast, all it takes is one good hit and those rims are bent. I will be buying Michelin tires fir the next set of...

    For Those Who Don't Think a Catch Can is Needed on Gen 4 s...

    I'm not keeping mine long enough to deal with having to put a catch can on an 80,000 dollar vehicle that probably should have had one in the first place. Can't wait until they come out with an electric one of these expeditions with 400 - 500 mile range. Once that happens ford can keep this...

    Is it just me?

    I found the weathertech mud flaps work well at preventing ice from accumulating on them. Only problem I found is when I removed the rear mud flaps on the 2020 my wife had when trading in to the 2021 I noticed the rear flaps rubbed on the rear bumper cover and wore down the paint. The front flaps...

    Missing Engine Cover on 2021 Expedition

    Does anyone have a picture of what the cover is supposed to look like? I have a brand new 21 that doesn't have one either and it kinda looks weird without one. I definitely would be interested in getting one
