Ford Excursion :: Noisy When Going Over Bumps - Replace Whole Set?

Alright so my Ex is pretty noisey when going over bumps and I'm going to do the V/Mod-B spring swap. My mechanic showed me how shot my front sway bar (aka control arm) bushings are so those definitely need to be replaced.

What would you guys recommend for getting for bushings? Should I get the whole set or just ones for the front swing arm?

Ford Excursion :: Replace Cover Over The Second Row Flap?

Replacing the cover over the second row flap things?

My 2nd row bench seats spend most of their life in the down position since the dog views everything behind the front seats as his domain. The flaps (and back of row 2) are looking a little ruff and I would like to replace, but haven't seen anything online.

Where to look?

Ford Excursion :: How To Replace Driver Door Actuator

Beside the normal tools you will need a mirror, flashlight, very long needlenose pliers, and tin snips. There are 2 screws holding the driver door panel on, one is in the courtesy light at the bottom and the other is inside the switch compartment. You must also twist the light socket out, pop the cover off above the switches, pry the switch pod up at the FRONT and slide forward, and unplug the switches.

Now pull straight up on the panel and remove it after taking the light out at the bottom;

Tape the membrane up out of your way

You will need mirrors like these and very long needlenose.

Remove all the yellow plastic screws holding this aqua connector and it's wires and tuck it into the corner of the door.

Now you have a clear view of the actuator;

Try to pop this yellow plastic clip loose with your fingers and if not drill a hole above the oval hole and use a screwdriver;

Take the 3 screws out at the latch;

Push the plastic screws in holding the black cable and look through the oval hole to locate the green clip holding the rod to the door latch handle.

Cut the oval hole bigger so you can access the next steps;

Rotate the whole unit around until you can pop the green clip loose with a screwdriver by prying or pulling on the small side of the green clip and then locate the rod next to it (not mentioned in other posts), and disconnect it by using your very long needle nose to squeeze one side and a long screwdriver to pry the rod out;

Rotate the entire unit out around the window track, remove the wire harness, unplug the two other harnesses, and insert screwdriver under actuator before sliding it off.

Now you are ready to do the tin foil fix or just replace the actuator.

Ford Excursion :: 2005 - Goes Out Once A Week - Replace The Battery?

my 2005 V10 Ex is garage kept. I work at home and have a different daily driver so it usually goes out once a week.

At 40,000 miles and 10 years...it still has the original factory installed battery. I keep a tender on it if it's going to sit a while and so far everything has been OK.

At 10 years, should I replace the battery just to avoid a potential problem?

Ford Excursion :: Small Led Light Bar Replace The Fog Lights?

A few weeks back, I noticed my driver side fog light housing broke. Granted the fog lights arent that bright anyways, I was thinking of replacing them with a light bar. Could I have the light bar wired up the same way? Would having a bar there cause the engine/tranny to overheat?

Ford Excursion :: Replace 3rd Brake Light Unit?

Is the Excursion 3rd brake light from the F250/350 pickups like the rest of the truck... Or is it from an E-Series van like the tail lights?

In either case, is there a unit that has both the brake light and a bed/cargo area light? My rear window is tinted and I'd like to put a little light up high while I'm backing up... Just a little.

I really don't want to drill a bunch of holes for auxillary lighting, especially up high.

Ford Excursion :: Can Replace Automatic With A Manual Transmission?

Would it work? I saw this on CL 2000 Ford F250 6 speed manual 2wd transmission. It says it is for 2WD but I don't think that matters because the transfer case is what make it 4WD anyway right?

I don't love automatics. With a manual trans, some new gears and the dully conversion this thing would be like driving a giant sports car. Any computer related problems?

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Front Bumper Damaged - Fix Or Replace?

So a line of panic stops on the highway last night and I lost - stopping an 8000lb rig compared to hondas, nissans, etc. Anyway I just kissed the corner of a nissan xterra and dented the steel part of my front bumper below the driver headlight. Nothing else. It is a 2002 all black limited.

I am wondering about fixing vs. buying a new bumper. A new one from the dealer is 436 and then needs to be painted.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Replace Rear Bumper And Trailer Hitch

My wife backed the truck into a pole and bent the driver's side bumper and one of the ears on the trailer hitch (the part that bolts to the frame). I bought all the parts that need to be replaced (the left bumper end, the hitch itself, and the plastic bumper cover), gut am hesitant to try to change it all myself. How hard is it to change out all these parts? Is there a write-up any where out there for this?

Passat (B7) :: Wet Windscreen Sensors Non Operative

The 2012 PASSAT has the built in facility to operate the winsdcreen wipers and adjust the rear view mirror for bright lights. Why delivery cars having this function enabled? Dealer outright refuses to activate them, even though they appear to be the exact same as in the 2012 EOS.

Phaeton :: Windscreen Reservoir Is Leaking

I have a problem with my 2006 Phaeton. This night I found one of the headlights color is red, almost purple, the right one, the left has no problems. I suspect the windscreen reservoir is leaking, because I have put yesterday 4L of windscreen fluid and now I have this problem. The reservoir is located near the right headlight. I have emptied the reservoir right away and waited for 2 or 3 hours but when I tried the color of the right headlight was the same. How can this problem can be resolved and what exactly may be broken in the xenon system.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 - E-Brake Won't Working - Replace Front / Intermediate / Rear Cables?

2000 F 350 super cab 4wd 7,3 auto srw long bed. Problems with emergency/parking. My cable probably needs replacing. My pedal will go to floor when setting the e brake. I use very infrequently, but when loading hay on the big bale trailer. I could ignore it but when hit the slightest bump the brake pedal goes down just enough to activate the brake light on the dash and activates the bell/chime until I raise the brake pedal up.

When searching this site one post stated that should not happen. I am trying to figure out if I need to replace the front cable, intermediate cable, and rear cables. And do I need to replace the foot pedal assembly as well. What are the part numbers for these. I generally order from who ever took over Edpartguys for original ford parts. I have new cryo rotors and Hawke brake pads.

Golf/GTI VII :: Defroster Only Clears The Center Area Of Windscreen

I love my car but under 25 degrees it freezes up. My windscreen ices on the inside like the old time movie windows. My defroster only clears the center area leaving me an oval to look out. Takes forever to clear frost. Granted the weather is ridiculous in the north east. Second no matter how much snow is cleared as soon as I open the door, whoosh it's all sucked in on my seat. Next my clutch sticks in this cold weather, have to run heat on my feet. The bottom first inch of travel it sticks making shifting a chore until warm enough. The stock Pirellis turn into hockey pucks at 30 degrees. They stiffen up bad in the cold. I know they are all seasons but damn. The wipers also build up a ton of ice by the A pillars and where they sit by the hood. Steadily decreasing the amount I can see out and have to stop a lot. The ice under the wipers freezes into a huge chunk. Makes it a fight to remove the glacier. Just things I've noticed, never had any of these annoyances in any other vehicle.

Touareg :: Lack Of Sufficient Tension On The Windscreen Wipers

One area we have been disappointed with is the lack of sufficient tension on the windscreen wipers. The local dealer broke the plastic replacing the blade which did nothing to correct the problem. The rear wiper is just as bad, leaving a large area never swiped. The driver side blade leaves a large half bubble shaped area un-wiped in front of the driver.

Honda - Accordhybrid :: 1992 - How To Replace Rear Locks

What should be the RPM when cruising at 65 m.p.h. on a flat, well paved freeway? The car is carrying only the driver in this case. My transmission was replaced and my RPM is now 3,100 rather than, as I recall, around 2599. The mechanix says that the transmission is for a Honda Prelude and that they're all the same. Is this true? By the way, my gas milage has proportionately dropped.

Also, how difficult is it to replace the rear shocks? Can this be done in the driveway with the car's rear end securely up on blocks?

One last problem involves the status indicator on the dashboard. This is the one that shows the status of the doors, brake lights, etc. Sometimes this comes on and flickers. Sometimes it never comes on, except for the test flash when starting the car. Sometimes it always stays on. Is this an easy fix?
