    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    Good one, MikePA. Next time I pull the center for some reason I'll install one. I see that for 20-21's we have to use the harness type. Thanks!

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    Quick question regarding this damn auto start/stop: If turned off via Forscan, it actually shuts down the BMS (Battery Monitoring System), which in turn disables auto start/stop! Now it certainly keeps your engine from stalling at all the stoplights, but here's the problem: With BMS offline...

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    My 2c after modding my 2020 KR (Expedition) with Forscan. Here's the shortcut/simple way to use Forscan to it's full potential. Hope you like it! *** I use an Apple Mac / MacOS, no you don't have to go buy a PC *** --- Mac stuff for you Unix gurus -- I'm using a MAC (yes an Apple) with...

    2020 Expedition occasionally doesn't start

    It could well be the brake switch. There was a SB about this on certain Mercedes models that ran for years. Setting off the CE light, SRS light etc was also on the list. All for a $10.00 brake pedal switch

    What do the logs say? I'm REALLY curious about this one

    2022 Expy announced

    I'd imagine they made a few ICU mapping changes to get those few extra horses, but if it's not basically the same motor I'd be awfully surprised. Changing valve timing for increased compression may require use of 93 octane, a common practice in European cars to get another 20 horses

    2022 Expy announced

    Great 15" display with lots of good information, but although they tried, they just couldn't find a spot for it. I was hoping it wouldn't turn out like this, perhaps all they did was stick a 15" Android Pad up there the best they could with double stick tape. The smaller display in landscape...

    Unknown leaking in 2021 expedition

    I'd bet on the evaporator drains are clogged. Seats are probably wicking up the [cold] water. *If* I'm right, this should be a real easy/cheap fix. Good luck!

    To Sell or not to Sell...

    Your bet, FC. The two on the table have since faded; they knew a few months ago I would have considered it. Both were referred by the dealer as a favor as we had joked around about it. If it comes up again, I'll ping you for sure. BTW - after fees, taxes, allowances, etc are you really sure...

    To Sell or not to Sell...

    Well I read back in this thread a few hours and it looks like the war dept won out lol. Like I said I'd delist it and keep it, but only if you can stand to deal with Ford. Sounds like if just a few annoying issues were resolved, you'd have one *******' truck that's worth close to it's new...

    2022 Expy Preview

    PB I agree with the truck vs auto thoughts. The 2022 main display screen as shown in the previews is an eyesore. Mercedes did this with several of their C and E classes early on because to do otherwise would have meant serious dash redesign and ergonomics, which take time and $$. They've all...

    To Sell or not to Sell...

    My 2020 KR stickered for better than $81k, and I wouldn't sell it for 2 offers I've had in excess of 6 figures with just 2k miles so far. It left the factory in October of 2019, and a month after that I was one of the first to catch Covid myself (yes, airline pilots can get it too). After...

    Intermittent Random ABS light

    Could well be the brake switch on the brake pedal. Worth a look

    2018 Navigator getting 6th set of Cam Phasers.

    Whoa - excellent stats, Wake. I'm hoping that pans out for future posts. [my 2020 KR mfg date is October of 2019]

    Dash coin holder to wireless charging phone mount.

    [instructions coming] See pics! I'll find either an Etsy or Ebay link for this particular mounting device. There's also some good descriptions/links in previous posts on this thread. I got mine used from Ebay as I didn't know about this Etsy seller. So you can try ...

    Love the Expy, but need a truck

    Paul - I'm especially fond of your passenger!

    Rear Sway bar?

    Whoa - great info DM. Can the CCS repair any of the valve timing's misgivings through magnetics? When Chevy introduced the whole magnetic suspension concept (it was Chevy wasn't it?), I recall a whole lot of bragging and chest pounding about how easy it was for the real-time computers to...

    Rear Sway bar?

    MW - is that table the total allowable weights for towing, or maybe recommended balance? Is the Expy really a 6200lb truck empty?

    2021 Ford Expedition King Ranch

    It adds up pretty quick lol. Sticker of $80k is about normal for a KR, and maybe $85k for a Limited. Add $20k for add-ons like GPS tracker/theft, FordPlus super-warranty, various fees, taxes (prob $8K on this one), and yes (everyone hates this one) a "Market Incentive" anywhere from +$1k to...

    Rear Sway bar?

    This is excellent news, and disputes what a mechanic told me at the shop. But he may have been right about the heavy springs used in the expy/F150, causing it to bounce during light loads (fully extended struts). If he's right, I wonder why the ccs can't keep it stable?

    Rear Sway bar?

    I wonder about this. Only driving my expi for a few short months, I've come to notice it's just sprung WAY to tightly. Assuming it's inherited the F150s suspension, which would explain why inside rear lifts off ground during slow speed tight turns. True, a sway bar may keep both rears on the...
