I've ordered rotors and pads to replace brakes. I am having a hard time finding bolt torque specs. If anyone has them I would appreciate it. Also, I noticed for some years in F-150's, it appears that the caliper bracket bolts need to be discarded. Is that the case with the current generation Navigators? Thanks!

It has neither air suspension nor air leveling. Those are different things. One of the reasons I was attracted to it was that it did not have air suspension. I tow a travel trailer. I don't want something that if it breaks (and they break), renders the vehicle undrivable. Coil springs are reliable. As far as leveling, leveling does not increase load carrying capacity so I don't see it as a big deal - for me anyway.

We have a 18. Other than very minor issues, it has been a good vehicle and we are quite pleased with it. Infotainment and camera resolution are out of date at this point. Engine is a beast (we use ours for towing a travel trailer). Great highway vehicle. Ours is from the period with engine "phasers" that go bad. That is super disappointing, but it is what it is. No plan to get rid of it. I'd buy another one.

I'm a sports car guy so, no, but I gotta say I have enjoyed this vehicle way more than I expected. I can see why it would be someone's dream.

I have a 2018 with the tow package. The tow package in my year and through 21 did not include any suspension changes. I would have preferred a bit firmer ride than what I have, but I'm a sports car guy so I'm inherently a bit off.

Where it is really bad is towing. We have a 25ft travel trailer and get about 10mpg when towing. 23.8 gal makes for pretty short range.

At lest on my 2018, you can turn off the corrective steering force and just set it to vibrate for lane departure. That is what I do. Also, if you turn on your blinker, the lane departure feature should not be doing anything. That sounds like something is wrong.

When the sales guy described the auto hold feature my thought was "That's dumb, who would use it?" Now after 2.5 years my thought is "Why doesn't every car have this?" I use it every time I drive the SUV.

I have a 2018 as well. Our steering wheel position does adjust when changing memory settings.

That is not what a LSD does and I feel certain an eLSD doesn't either. A LSD send torque to the non-slipping wheel. In the eLSD context, it isn't purely electronic. I don't know whether Ford uses this unit but if you read this page, there is hydraulic actuation involved to send torque to the non-slipping wheel. https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/catalog/differentials/intellitrac-differential.html

We have a later production 2018. It does not remember the last setting.

I was hoping to report back how to change a cabin filter. I figured out how to drop the glovebox door. There is an elastic line toward the passenger door which can be removed by prying out on the lower plastic piece that secures it to the side of the door and moving the part of the plastic piece that is inside the glovebox toward a removal hole. There is a friction stop toward the driver's side on the upper side of the glovebox door that must be depressed and a friction top at the top of the back top of the inner part that has to be maneuvered around a stop to let the door drop. I then removed the six 7mm bolts shown in the YouTube video. Those secure a big panel that includes the glovebox door hinges. I pulled the panel in a few places trying to get something loose. Not wanting to break anything, I didn't get too enthusiastic. Then I decided to put everything back before I broke something. If anyone runs across instructions, I could use some help.

It was the first year; lots of problems. Ford sent it to market without having it ready. I don't remember all the problems; I mostly remember the constant stream of problems. Three clutches in year one despite my wife's fairly easy driving. Periodic electrical failures that I never did sort. Complete transmission failure. Upholstery on drivers seat falling apart. For its time, though, you are absolutely right. Fantastic car and what an engine. I learned one extremely valuable lesson from our ownership: I never talked my wife into buying another vehicle.
