    Can't figure out what shocks I have. 2017 el max

    I had a Suburban with the Nivomats and the springs were different from what came with non-Nivomats. I changed them out when I couldn't find any at decent price and used Z71 springs and shocks. Not sure if the Expeditions are set up the same with lighter springs or not. Just thought I'd throw...

    New Sequoia vs 22+ Expy

    They went backwards. The Sequoia in prior models had independent rear suspension. They put the solid axle under the new model.

    No power

    So you don't have any dash lights or anything? Does the dome light come on when you open the door? If you have power at the starter & the fuse block, you're going to have to trace out from there. You really need a wiring diagram. There's a set of only repair manuals here on the site. It...

    No power

    Have you checked to see if there is power at the starter and at the solenoid? I'd check these two places first. That will give you more to go on for troubleshooting.

    2008 Evaporator Core

    I have an '08 EL Limited with rear air. I know the evaporator core under the dash has a hole in it and needs replaced. Is it possible to get a quality replacement core without having to buy the OEM core with the evaporator case and all? I'd like to use a Ford core without having to spend...

    Mileage and switch to 5W30

    I just switched mine yesterday. I'm at 177K. It was doing OK with the 5W20 but from what I've read, I think the 5W30 is going to be a better option.

    2008 model - temperate sensors for electronic HVAC controls??

    The AC in my 2008 Limited stopped blowing cold a couple of weeks ago. I had it in the shop this week and they found that it was low on refrigerant and fixed that. On the way home from the shop last night the external temperature dropped to -25 or so and never got above 45 or so (about 85 or...

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

    Add these to mine a couple of days ago. HUGE difference!

    Gas overflow when filling the tank on a 2008?

    It did it initially with the first cutoff.

    Gas overflow when filling the tank on a 2008?

    Same station but two different pumps. I get gas there all the time and this doesn't happen with my other vehicles. You're correct, the cutoff is on the pump. This is like the flow in the tank & filler neck comes up too fast for the cutoff to engage before it overflows.

    Gas overflow when filling the tank on a 2008?

    I haven't had my truck that long. A little over two weeks now. I've only filled it up twice and this happened both time. I missed what happened the first time but saw it today. When it got to the point that the tank was nearly full and the nozzle should kicked off, it overflowed rather...

    Remote start on 2008 EL not working

    I appreciate the help! I had been messing with this for over a week since I had gotten the truck. And thanks for the info on being able to leave the truck running by using the system. I had not seen that. I do need to check about that hood switch. That could be a problem.

    New to me 2008 EL

    Mine had 164,600 miles. He was asking $7800 but I got it for $7000. I had checked the values before I went to look at it and he was in the low middle range according to KBB. I'm not sure how the KBB values vary from area to area. My seller was just looking to move it as they had a new one...

    Remote start on 2008 EL not working

    I've done some searches but I didn't find anything that really seemed like my issue. I just bought the truck about a week ago. It has the Ford remote start with the small additional fob with the single button. I've tried the remote start several times but it just doesn't work. I watch the...

    New to me 2008 EL

    From the service records and what the previous owner told me, I think that mine has had a steady diet of Motorcraft oil and filters. From looking at the invoices, it doesn't look like he was paying much for for the dealer oil changes than what I can buy the materials for. I might give the...

    My Suburban is an '03 and from what I've read was the last the "trucky" Suburbans. The Expedition rides better, more like a car. The steering in the Expedition also feels better.

    New to me 2008 EL

    I've had my 2008 EL Limited about a week now. I love it. It is a one owner, dealer serviced from day 1. It is in great shape and I got a great deal on it so I'm happy. Coming over from a 2003 Suburban LT which I loved. I'm really happy with the Expedition so far.
