Touareg :: Front Headlamp Keeps Blinking On And Off Over Hard Road Bumps
My front headlamp keeps blinking on and off over hard road bumps. It doesn't always do it, but enough that it has become a problem. It throws a head lamp fault most times and goes right back to normal.
I used the tool to remove the assembly and slide it back in. It didn't seem to fix it. Any tips get it in there tighter? Or to make sure the electrical connections are tight? I am afraid it is adding a lot of wear and tear on the bulb and will burn it out soon. Plus it is annoying when the chime goes off.
Touareg :: Front Bumper Is Uneven / Paint Is Bubbled Up Under Headlamp
I was washing my car yesterday and I was on the driver side washing by the headlamp. I noticed that their was no gap between the headlamp and the bumper where they meet. I further noticed that the bumper didn't match up right in the wheel well. Also the paint is bubbled up under the headlamp. I proceeded to the other side of the car and everything is normal.
I am slightly ticked off about this. I don't know what to think about this. The strange thing is that there are no scratches or dents or anything of that nature on the messed up side. Could this be something messed up from the factory since there are no scratches or dents? I don't really want to take this to the dealer.

I got a new headlamp switch for my 2016 SD. I have the XL work truck with no fog lights. I recently added fog lights and an OEM fog light wire harness. I also got an OEM switch that pulls out to activate the fig lights because the stock switch in my truck operates the headlamps only. What I can't figure out is how to remove the switch.
Here's a photo of the new switch .....

View 6 RepliesFord Excursion :: Front End Vibration At 55 Mph
My new to me 04 X has a fairly bad vibration that starts around 55 mph. At about 60-65 it sort of goes away, but not completely. The wheels are 20" F-250 wheels ( 2006 ) with spacers/adapters. These were on it when I bought it. I had the wheels re-balanced and checked the ball joints. This made no difference.
This is not what I would call the death wobble, just a bad vibration in the front end. The steering wheel does shake/vibrate a little, but so does most of the truck while it is doing it.
Ford Excursion :: Front End Conversion?
I am thinking of switching my front end of my plain ole 01 to an 05 and up. I'm torn on getting rid of the chrome and going all painted up grille and bumper or getting a chrome set up. I found a paintable 05 take off with the oval for 60 bucks. Who out here has a all painted front end on your ex with pics. I know there are plenty with the chrome set up. I have 2 people emailing me about buying their grille now.
View 7 RepliesFord Excursion :: Clunking From Front End?
I recently ran into the "clunking from the front end" problem with my Excursion. It is 2WD but this might apply to all. I had the clunk under my left foot while driving over a series of small bumps. It was a rapid clunking. One big bump, or things like speed bumps did not produce the noise or feel in my feet. Only rapid irregularities in the road at 35 mph or greater made it happen.
It made me crazy trying to figure it out. I tried everything. Both sets of swaybar links, shock mounts, track bar mounts, made sure brake calipers were tight, you name it. It showed its ugly head every time I hit small bumps in succession at speed. Even tried to re-seat the coil springs but that didn't work! My front bearings made NO noise. There was NO play in them by hand while up on jacks. I had taken them out and repacked them while replacing front brakes. At my wits' end, I went for a "hail mary" shot. I purchased new bearings. Took it all apart, packed the new bearings and replaced.
Low and behold! The damn "clunking" is now gone! So, in short, IF you have a clunking that nothing else seems to fix, just try replacing the bearings even IF you feel NO play in them. I couldn't believe that bearings that felt so tight by hand would be causing such clunking.
Ford Excursion :: Noise From Front End?
My Ex developed a speed sensitive squeal from the drivers front last night and I am not sure whats up so I'm looking for some input..... First off it has warn manual lock outs on it, the squeal kinda sounds like what rubber against rubber or wet rubber sounds like. there is no heat anywhere I can feel its not pulling side to side..... it usually comes on after I hit a small bump and goes away under 10mph. But, if I lock the drivers side hub it goes away no matter what the speed, also with both the hubs in free wheel it will go away if I engage the transfer case while its squealing......last summer it got a complete brake job, all ball joints were replaced and axle joints were done.

I had my car in storage for the winter, pulled it out today.
The one headlamp was dimmer than the other. The other was operating fine.
The dim one went out after a few min. I restarted the car and it came back on dim.
Is this a sign that the bulb is burning out? or something else? What is the usually lifespan on these bulbs?

View 2 RepliesFord Excursion :: 2001 - Front End Vibration?
Just picked up an 01 4x4 v10 a few weeks ago. I have a severe vibration that occurs when I hit a bump at highway speeds. The vibration cannot be felt in the steering, and I must come to a complete stop to cure it. There is a rattle, consistent with rotation coming from the passenger front tire. It seems to get louder the longer the I drive it, Going away and starting over after the truck has sat for a few minutes. I have had the truck on a lift and there is no play in ball joints or tie rods. I have recently replaced the sway bar end links. When this started I had the front tires balanced to make sure that's not the issue.
