    Grille Guard on ‘22 Expy

    Yep, two work associates have had deer run into the side of their cars. One a Tesla and the other a Camry: just body damage, and cars were drivable. If it hits the front, there are a few critical items that can make it non-drivable. While nothing is guaranteed, a big bumper may protect some of...

    Finally received my fender flares from Baja Forged

    They look really great. Looks like it gives a lifted vehicle with wider/larger tires a factory look.

    FordPass app "service history" is flawed

    The app should show something like ‘multiple services’ if several things were done. That’s if you do it from the app. I don’t know how the service department enters the information [software]. It might be that it only reports one thing because software is crap these days? I usually make an...

    Grille Guard on ‘22 Expy

    That looks fricking awesome! Did you do it yourself or have it done? What are the specs on the bumper? Looks like Baja lights or a similar design?

    grinding noise and rough ride only when in 4A

    Indeed. Manufacturers often indicate the actual diameter of their tires along with the spec.

    2018 Ford Expedition Platinum Transmission Oil Level

    That's the older generation, it looks like. What is the relationship with the current gen?

    An honest suggestion for Ford

    I think that ship has sailed. The fact that 'security updates' in software is on a schedule indicates that most companies haven't hired real programmers in years. They will be all running Python by the end of next year.

    ALLA LED headlights issue

    That is a bulb I had thought of going with if the LEDs didn’t work out in the projectors. Just treat it as a consumable, which I think, even high output LEDs are. Even factory LEDs fail for one reason or another (albeit at a potentially lower rate), but you have to open your wallet to fix them.

    ALLA LED headlights issue

    The quality of the eastern ‘brands’ tends to rise and fall with the tides. Just get another set. I had a switchback turn signal fail, just purchased another set, different brand, and went on with life. The headlights, beams and fogs have been fine for the past 3 years or so. I believea mix of...

    Ford to Eliminate Parallel Parking Assist options

    It's a vicious circle. If we stopped continuing work on something because its a 'useless feature' or 'little used' we would have none of the cool features in life. But how do they know people aren't using it? I've not used that feature on the vehicle I have it on, simply because I have not...

    2018 expedition headlight assembly ballast replacement

    LDM: looks like LED Driver Module, and as someone said in this thread, a hold-over on naming it a 'ballast' (car manufacturers are notorious for not naming things what the are). A voltage stabilized 15V. I think it's a smart idea to have that external to the LEDs in the headlight. Hopefully this...

    New TSB for CDF drum, 10R60/10R80/10R80 MHT

    Are they holding 10klbs of weight and capable of 400 plus lbs of torque through the transmission? Different design. Every truck I’ve had (albeit not many) has this ‘Issue’. Cars, generally not so much.

    Ford got rid of radiator upgrade option from HD Trailer Tow Package since model year 2022

    So, if you do not get the HD tow, what radiator do you get? The 26mm is an option, so what’s different? What does 26mm even mean?

    Oil Change Interval in Winter

    Just use common sense. Colder weather is harsher starts; change it ‘more often’. Since people are all over the place on when to change oil in these vehicles, it’s really up to you. I use the oil life monitor as a gauge for oil ‘wear’ (whatever that means), but aim for 4 to 7k. If the oil life...
