Reverse tilt mirror
My neighbor just bought an 04 EB Expy and it doesn't have the reverse tilt mirror option. Did they really have so many problems with it that they did away with it that fast? He did get the EB but it doesn't have quite a few things mine has, just wondering.

Kleen wheels has taken care of that problem 100%.

Homer, my mother just bought a 2004 Navigator and it has the reverse-tilt mirrors. Were they just deleted from the '04 Expedition and not Navigator? Also, do the KleenWheels affect the brakes in any way, ie: cause them to overheat easier?

The DVD and seat cooling/warming are options.
Yours should have the Tire Pressure sensor. Do you have it turned off in the menu on the message center. On the 03 you could disable it. Do you have the original wheels? You should have metal valve stems.
The Kleen wheels are OK. There use to be something similar years ago that created problems but not this product. My dealer recommended them and installed them.
I purchased them from a parts dealer for $35 pair. Did all four for tire rotation. Even the new pads aren't completely dustless. I will keep them on even after I need brakes and have the new type installed.

Just purchased a new EB 2004 Expy...looked all over for the auto tilt because it is still in the published materials. In fact, the dealer looked in the service manual and admitted that it was a function listed there...however, noone could find out how to activate it.
My guess is that it is either an advanced option for just the Navigator or that it was just too buggy.

That should clear up any questions.
