I have 2007 Exp EL Limited. Fresh oil every 3000 miles and moter flush every 10k. Runs like a champ. Ford tech told me keep oil fresh and clean and he guaranteed 300k
I just bought a 2014 with 118,000 miles. The dealership has all of the maintenance records...it was very well maintained. Brought it to my mechanic, and he said that the engine was so clean that you could eat off it, and it has zero rust anywhere on it! The inside is meticulously clean too! I love it!!
listen, just drove my '08 expedition eddie bauer edition from fl to ga and sc, then through al, ms, la out to tx and there wasn't an one ounce of give up or give out in it ✊😅
My Dad had one of these he bought it brand new and it was excellent. It took our family of 6 on many holidays and never failed in anyway. Never broke down. and it always had enough space.
That's awesome! It's always nice to think back to the family vehicle that you have memories with going places. It's like it is part of the family as well.
I pulled my travel trailer across country in this. It was def over the 9000lb capacity and it did awesome. It never let me down. I still own it and it has 200k miles and the A/C finally gave out. First real issue I've had with it since I bought it used 5 years ago.
Yeah, it is over 9,000 lbs. I miss spoke and said the estimated torque figures after the changes they made to it to fix some of the errors of the early 5.4L, but when it was done, it made more power and torque. Once they made some fixes on it It was pretty reliable and was around for a while until it was replaced by the coyote 5.0L V8. Good catch! 👍 Thanks for watching!
@fsb_-bf3th The Ford F-150 got the coyote 5.0L, and the expedition got the 3.5L V6. So you could say that technically, the 5 4 V8 got replaced by a 5.0 V8 in some vehicles and the 3.5 V6 in others
I have a 2011. I had a small spot of rust from dirt that built up in the rocker panel that was easy to fix. If you dont keep up on the oil changes the engine can run rough in idle. I changed the spark plugs and the driver door window regulator. The CD has given me issues as well. Other than that I have had no maintenance. Overall the truck is quite rust resistant and its been reliable with no electronic issues.
Very nice, I have 2 of them in Florida so no rust. 2011 limited EL with 145,000 and 2006 Eddie Bauer with 214,000 both running strong. With 5.4 L you need oil changes every 4,000 miles or you will have issues. Great towing SUVs 🚙
I have found that blend door problems can be mostly stopped by not turning the temperature all the way to hot or cold. This way the motor stays off the end of its travel to lessen the load on the motor. Seems to work in my 2014 Expedition. My old 77 Lincoln had vacuum operated blend doors that never failed. But now we have electronic blend doors that fail a lot. 🙄
I'm looking at a 2013 SSV that's a former paramedic vehicle. Rockers are gone and will be replaced and the tailgate has a wrap with corrosion under it. Has 183k KMs on it (Canada). $8500 cdn. Being ssv everything is heavy duty. Not looking at it as a people hauler more like a pick up. My Land Rover LR3 is nice but there's not a lot I could find to replace it.
It is getting harder harder to find a good reliable large SUV at a affordable price. The Land Rover LR3 is a great SUV but As long as a vehicle has been maintained properly. Higher mileage shouldn't be as much as an issue as long as it has oil changes and have been maintained that 2013 SSV could be a nice replacement for you
I am thinking about repainting the portions of the hood and liftgate that is corroding on mine. Sand it out, clean it real good, and use proper aluminun primer and use good paint and clearcoat.
@@MotorMikeMedia Will do. Just waiting for it to be cool and dry out. Houston is so humid. Can't do a good repaint on humid days and trap the moisture underneath the primer. Also still researching on the right tools as well.
320,000 on my 07 same color limited 2nd owner garage kept found mine for 3300 i love mine and the best part is it looks like a newer one since they had the same body 07-16 i would recommend to anyone
Love my Limited drivers side heated seats dont work but the cooling does , running boards sometimes but by the time they deploy im already in , no biggie for me , the true test was Thursday night coming home from work in Elma NY driving through the winter storm This truck Handled Awesome 4wd had no issues no slipping or sliding and it got me home safe it is comfortable and i feel safe in it , im old school
That's good that you feel safe and comfortable in your big SUV these can be great vehicles for family haulers towing or just someone that wants a large SUV.
My family started off with a 2003 Ford Expedition Eddie baur trim model up until early 2021 Rust had eaten the Frame but the motor was still strong and healthy for having 240k miles, soon after we got a 2010 Ford Expedition limited in 2022 with 132k miles for $7,000 on Marketplace, it had its issues mainly the sun-roof not working and ball joints but other then that the motor is strong and healthy along with the comforts and ease it is to fold the seats, I had just replaced the factory radio/Navigation last night to a Pioneer AVH-W4400NEX with a maestro Rr paired to keep steering wheel controls and rear dvd, it also has wireless CarPlay which is what I needed for this upcoming summer I only got the stereo for $70 dollars on Facebook so it was a no brainer to install it loving it so far 👏🏽
98k mile on myy 2014, leaking front dif pinion seal and coolant leak 9(broken crossover pipe gasket) and it will have band noise when start.. (AC stuff)
Had 160k on our 2011 expedition. Had to do tha phasers at 125k. Had a clicking blend door.. hit a deere insurance wanted to scrap so got a 2016 with ecoboost. So far loving the ecoboost. Seems like it downshifts 4x better than the 5.4 did with same trans. Love the expys though for towing capacity on a people mover
Just purchased a ‘08 this past December. She has over 318000 miles. Runs great. Being such high mileage, should I switch to a heavier weight oil? I’m still putting in 20W-50.
I just bought a 2012 Expedition King Ranch with only 39k miles that looks like it just rolled off of the assembly line. I'm planning on changing the oil every 3k miles and just bought a new transmission filter and will replace the fluid that's in the pan. I probably paid too much, but I wanted one with low miles.
I've got a 2008 with some 168000 thousand miles on it. Though I have never experienced any problems with the engine. The rest of the stuff you are talking about. Like the electrical issues with a a.c. vent flaps and the heated and cooling seats. That I have experienced plus the damn electric front drivers and passenger side windows. The wires/cables that are connected to the window frames. Keep breaking and I have tried to mickey mouse them back together again. Only to have them fail a few months later.
Yeah, these vehicles can be pretty expensive to maintain. It's sad that a lot of electrical issues AC vent flaps driver passenger windows and seats. And all that stuff have so many problems from the factbrief as they get older and only it's worse. They just ride so well when things do work. They can be good vehicles if you got some extra money and / or time to put in them.
Actually the 5.4 3v (found in these expeditions) doesn’t have a spark plug detonation issue. That was a 5.4 2v problem. Ford “fixed” the spark plug detonation issue in the 5.4 3v but fixing that problem brought on a new one. The spark plug tends to get stuck in the engine when replacing them. So basically if you don’t ever replace your spark plugs you won’t ever encounter this problem.
BLEND DOOR ISSUES GALORE, IVE CHANGED THREE OF THEM, RUNNING BOARD MOTORS, BRAKES AND ROTORS, LED LIGHTS, BODY WORK ON THE HOOD AND TRUNK DOOR BECUASE OF THE FAMOUS OXIDATION BUT A POWERFUL TRUCK BEATS EVERY SNOW SEASON... GREAT VIDEO...
Good Afternoon! I'm sorry about the passing of your Expedition. I don't know anyone personally but if you are looking I would look online for a Parts, Junk or Scrap yard. They can take it off of your hands or they may know of a place or Person they is looking to buy trucks for part. There is also Facebook Market place there are people on there looking for Parts vehicles just take the proper precautions if you go that route.
I know in 2011 with the 5.4L V8, it does not have a factory-installed cabin air filter. It uses a non-changeable physical mesh barrier. I don't know about the Ecoboost one of the top my head I will have to look it up
Thank you for the review. Reaching 200,000 miles, did you replace the cam phasers, timing chains, and oil pump? If not, how often do you change oil and what brand of oil do you use?
Thank you very much for the comment and for watching!! Yes all that has been replaced My dad usually changes the oil twice a year one in the summer one in the winter he doesn't put very many miles on the vehicle he usually drives about 6 mi a day I would have to ask him what oil he is using and I can get back to you on that!
Go watch a Ford factory-trained mechanic named Brian. He's the absolute BEST when it comes to working on Fords, plus he pretty much does it on a ".....For Dummies" level. His TH-cam channel is: fordtechmakuloco
$1500 for the blend door zone control failure. The driver side/defrost actuator is a high fail rate. Luckily the ford mechanic broke the display. He said they have a high fail rate so it offsets some $1000 of the cost at no cost.
@@MotorMikeMedia better than fitting 3 kids in back of challenger lol. I needed 3 rows and sumthin to handle Cleveland winters lol. Not disappointed so far
@@cleveland9598 Yeah you now have a lot more room then a challenger lol I really like the Expeditions there roomy &nice to drive! I Hope it will be a great car for you and your family!!! 👍
Totally awesome yeah I'm done buying brand new vehicles it just ain't worth it it always ends up being a hassle. So the used vehicles I go to a buy here pay here in Idaho Vista Auto Sales they're freaking awesome The guy's been around for like 40 years selling buy here pay here cars and I've never had a problem with the two vehicles I've bought from him and made payments and they cashed out and they're still running. So I'm working on looking at this expedition as a 2010 limited and he's giving me a sweet deal on it's about 200,000 miles but it has no rust
Very nice! Yes, unfortunately, nowadays with cars being so expensive. It is not really worth buying a brand new car. Onless it is something you absolutely want. And you plan on keeping it until it dies. Finding use vehicles that have Bin maintain properly and still in your shape. It can't be hard to find, but it's so much worth all the savings you can get.
You are right I misspoken in my head I had the information for the 2.7 EcoBoost not the 3.5 for towing Yes a 3.5 will out blow the 5.4 Triton as well as the 5.0 coyote the 3.5 is a beast I misspoken but thank you very much for catching it I'm a big fan of EcoBoost as well as the current coyote engine
If the body is rust free and nice and interior is clean. Everything's working electronically on the as well as the four by four working with a strong running engine. Yes, it is worth it if it's clean and strong running. If it's rough or needs a lot of work, then no.
Yeah l these vehicles do become very costly to maintain the older they get and do have quite a few problems or gremlins that can pop up. Like you said sometimes you need to know when to cut your losses
1 owner 08...main bearing knock appeared out of nowhere idling this week..93k mi so much about this I cant stand...had better reliability , knee room from a 10 yr older Silverado. 13 F150 Lariat even more problem prone. Try to give all mfrs a chance but these are just pos not what they used to be
Nice review. I have a 2010 Limited EL. We love it. There are a few things that are annoying, however. Also, the rear entertainment only plays DVDs, not Blu-rays. The front screen can also play DVDs, but not while driving obviously, and not for the back screen. I have also had to fix the ground wire for the heated/ac seats. I also have the annoying clicking from the blend door (just recently). I don't have the rust issue though, other than the small paint peel on the front hood, and a very tiny spot on the back tailgate. My running board motors just went out on my as well.
Thank you very much. Yeah, you're right, thank you. Good catch 👍 They do have there problems that can be annoying, but usually, the rest of the vehicle makes up for it.
I have 2007 Exp EL Limited. Fresh oil every 3000 miles and moter flush every 10k. Runs like a champ. Ford tech told me keep oil fresh and clean and he guaranteed 300k

300k miles and going strong on my 07 🤣

Asking a year later she still run good?
I bought an EL recently for 8500 with 99500 miles. Plan to keep it forever.
The spark plug issue was corrected in late 2008
actually it is the late 2007.
Great. Just bought a 09 one. Lol
I love my 2015 Expedition Platinum EL. 105k miles only issue was a water pump. I keep getting offers to sell it. I think I will keep it.

If the body is rust free and nice and interior is clean. Everything's working electronically on the as well as the four by four working with a strong running engine. Yes, it is worth it if it's clean and strong running. If it's rough or needs a lot of work, then no.
@@MotorMikeMediaok I’m taking it in for an inspection today so hopefully everything goes good
@@HonchoThaHitmandid you end up getting it? If so how’s it so far?
@@emteebee1872 hell yea I got it I talked him down to $9000. It’s been a really good truck only bad thing is it’s horrible on gas. But I still love it
All you can say is the 2008, 10, 12 are the gigachads
You cant compare it to my 2008 cadillac escalade platinum 😍6.2
I love me a nice Escalade with the 6.2 V8 👍
❤
I've heard the 2nd generation was the best. The one with the smaller engine. Any opinions?
Yes the second generation and the smaller engine are more reliable vehicles 👍
Mines got the same chip on the hood lol
Haha nice lol
My 2014 had issues at 87k miles. Just cut my losses and sold it 9k
Yeah l these vehicles do become very costly to maintain the older they get and do have quite a few problems or gremlins that can pop up. Like you said sometimes you need to know when to cut your losses
1 owner 08...main bearing knock appeared out of nowhere idling this week..93k mi
so much about this I cant stand...had better reliability , knee room from a 10 yr older Silverado.
13 F150 Lariat even more problem prone. Try to give all mfrs a chance but these are just pos not what they used to be
Yeah unfortunately Nowadays, the majority of cars aren't built to last more than a hundred and twenty five thousand miles.
💪🏻🇺🇸✌🏻--->foad
350,00 miles and still rolling
I gotta say the normal edition is better (opinion)
Nice review. I have a 2010 Limited EL. We love it. There are a few things that are annoying, however.
Also, the rear entertainment only plays DVDs, not Blu-rays. The front screen can also play DVDs, but not while driving obviously, and not for the back screen. I have also had to fix the ground wire for the heated/ac seats. I also have the annoying clicking from the blend door (just recently).
I don't have the rust issue though, other than the small paint peel on the front hood, and a very tiny spot on the back tailgate. My running board motors just went out on my as well.
Thank you very much. Yeah, you're right, thank you. Good catch 👍 They do have there problems that can be annoying, but usually, the rest of the vehicle makes up for it.
lot of ads.so no
Who does a car review with a load of mulch?
To be completely honest I don't even know it was in there until I put the camera on it and I was like I should have checked that first lol
