    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    I have, though not necessarily in that instance. It's usually in the 1st to 3rd gear jump. It's always low speed. It's usually when I'm first pulling out of the parking lot at work or from the garage in the morning. It's usually very brief. Thank you so much! This explanation makes a lot...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    This is exactly what I experience. I tried remote starting the car this morning for about 30 seconds and it seemed to be better. The truck behaved better the whole morning if driving around too. Very interesting. Yes, I’ve learned to time that shift delay. In this case it’s once you’re...

    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    Hi Everyone, I have a 2020 Limited 4x4 sitting right at 62,500 miles. Over the past few months the truck has developed this strange issue. It only happens after the car has sat for a while. The shortest time frame I have noticed it is four hours. I get in the car, start it up, usually idle...

    2025 Expedition details

    Just curious… how do you know this? And when do they close orders for 2024 models? Thanks!

    What Have You Done to Your 4th Gen This Week?

    Ok, I’ve been reading the threads where these plugs are mentioned. I have a stock setup with 20k miles on it. I tow a 5,200lb. boat and trailer several times per year. I’m pretty sold on upgrading these plugs. Plus I live in the Northeast so this thing sees the range of temperatures. What is...

    Wipers

    I’ve put silicone wiper blades on my vehicles for decades now. On my last few I’ve been using the PIAA’s. I put them on this car and as always, they are wonderful. The silicone leaves an invisible film on your windshield which promotes water beading. It makes downpours much easier.

    No drill license plate holder for 2020 Limited

    My 20 Ltd came from NC. The dealer in NY that I bought it from (about 3 hours away) did not have a front plate at the time of delivery. After 45 days of waiting for them to mail it to me I took it to the dealer down the road from my work. They had one in stock. I think it cost $50 installed...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    I'll have to give that a try. For me it seems like I notice it more in the 20-35mph range and specifically when the engine is around 2,500-3,250 rpm. I will say this, the power delivery tab on the center screen tells me it's working, even at "steady state" speeds in the range you cited. It...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    Thanks everyone. I suspected it’s normal. There are definitely some differences. Were it not for that coarse feeling, I’d probably prefer this mode. The front wheel engagement really makes the car feel more nimble to me. Ah well, it’s still a nice drive in 2WD. Thanks again for putting my...

    Question about 4WD Auto characteristics

    I have a 2020 Limited 4WD with the Heavy Duty Tow Package. It’s been cold and rainy here, so in some conditions traction is not as good. I don’t yet have winter tires on, so I’ve been utilizing 4A mode for extra grip I’m a few situations. Is it normal for the driveline to feel a little more...

    New Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3

    I had the Verde All Season II's on an MDX. They were ok in dry conditions, but I was disappointed. Treadlife was decent, wet traction was ok - not great. Snow traction was mediocre. Road noise was ok. I felt like the tires were a little more squirrels than the OEM's that came with the...

    Anyone with CCD Run a 20” Winter Tire Wheel Set?

    Thanks everyone. With so many weird inventory issues I had to play the game of what could I actually get. The shop I use was able to get the Nokian’s R3’s in 22’s. I was tempted to just swap them on the wheels every season. But I ended up getting a decent deal on Stealth Edition takeoffs - 5...

    1st to 3rd Gear Ten Speed 10r80 transmission shift slip?

    My '20 Limited does this. Most of the cars I test drove did this. I think it's programed to shift early for fuel economy but they let the torque converter apply some slippage to keep the RPM's in a more optimal range. It's almost CVT like. I don't love it, but i've gotten used to it. If you...

    Anyone with CCD Run a 20” Winter Tire Wheel Set?

    Thanks everyone. Ok, I will consider looking at smaller wheel options. When I do this, I tend to look for wheel takeoffs on eBay. I've had Blizzaks and Michelin Xice before. The DM-V2 is decent. I was hoping to get a set of Nokian's if I can find them. My wife has them on her CRV and they...

    Anyone with CCD Run a 20” Winter Tire Wheel Set?

    Just curious if anyone with the 22” Wheel and CCD configuration has run 20” wheels and winter tires? I’m getting winter tires for this thing (I live in Upstate NY where we tend to get a lot of snow and ice). I’m not sure I want to go smaller, but I know my shop will suggest that. How does it...

    2021 Limited without tow package

    I bought a ‘20 Limited with the tow package a few months ago. It occasionally tows a 23’ boat and trailer weighing ~5,000 lbs. My previous tow vehicle was an Acura MDX. I was technically within the specs Acura laid out (I weighed the whole rig) but it was not an easy tow. I am sitting 300...

    Wireless CarPlay?

    I bought the Carlinkit 2.0 wireless adapter. I was lured by the convenience. I read some reviews that said these are glitchy but Carlinkit appeared to be a bit further along in development. At some point CPlay2Air and Carlinkit have diverged, because they used to be the same. My experience...

    Cam Phaser engine damage

    Did the cam phaser software update do just this? I’ve noticed that in a cold start situation the car cranks at least twice as long as when it’s hot. And it doesn’t appear to do it because it’s struggling to fire. When I first saw that software update I thought it was strange but maybe this is...

    360 camera not full view

    I’m just curious if you had this resolved? My 20 Ltd is not displaying the front or back of the 360 view. I don’t think it really ever has except the other day I restarted the car to back it up more and I noticed the top down view showed a front and back. I was thinking the overall view was...

    Did '20+ Model Year address all the issues?

    I cross-shopped a ‘19 or ‘20 Tahoe vs a ‘19 or 20 Expy. I came to the conclusion that there were issues with the Tahoe’s 6 speed, variable cylinder management causing other issues down the road resulting in engine failure, and some folks had major driveline shudder. The Expy has cam phasers...

    Cam Phaser issue scaring me from buying

    I believe the cutoff date for cam phaser redesign was something like April 6 or April 9th 2019. So any 2019 built after that has the redesigned part. I feel for you as I tried to make a similar decision. I needed to upgrade my MDX to tow a 5,200 lb. boat. My MDX was VERY problematic which was...

    Update all versions of Ford Sync 3 to the latest Sync 3.4

    Thanks! It appears to have completed the updates. You were right, probably 8-10 files. The Sync site also logged my vehicle. Out of curiosity, it’s stopping at 21020. Is everyone who has downloaded 21098 only getting it from CyanLabs? Thanks!

    Update all versions of Ford Sync 3 to the latest Sync 3.4

    Ok, you seem to know a lot about this. I’m still new to this car and learning how the updates work. I successfully updated to 21020 on my ‘20 LTD by USB from the Ford site. I’m unsuccessful at getting it logged by their link on the sync site - they are having problems. But I have found a...

    Adjust 8in Information Display Brightness

    Well at least I know I’m not crazy if others think it’s bright too. It exposes the downside of all these backlit screens though. Thanks for confirming everyone!

    Adjust 8in Information Display Brightness

    I did a search and could not find much of anything related to this topic. I just took delivery of a ‘20 LTD 302A. I drove it back home at night and one thing I noticed was that the information display between the Speedo and Tach is very bright relative to the rest of the console lights. I can...
