New to me 2005 4.4i
Picked up an average condition Sterling Grey 4.4i with 122k and all of the options that I wanted and more:
![]() What I noticed when purchasing: - Both front outer CV axle boots torn and slinging grease - Smelling coolant/antifreeze vapor - Missing sub-woofer - Performance seemed lagging - Tailpipe smoke excessive when in stop and go traffic - Prior owner indicated numerous dead battery conditions What was done to it recently before I purchased: - New tires - Transmission serviced - Valve cover gaskets - Front and rear brake rotors with pads - Brake booster - Coolant expansion tank What I parts I have ordered prior to first servicing: - Inspection 2 maintenance with Mobil 1 High Mileage 10W-40 - New front CV axles - New radiator - CCV/OSV membrane replacement kits - Final stage resistor as I notice the interior fan would make noise with no key in ignition. - New H8 battery - Used style 130 wheels with brand new Hankook Dynapro ATM for winter and off-roading. - idrive transfer case fluid - Flush brake fluid - Replace differential fluids - Update navigation firmware to V32 and install 2015 map DVD What parts I am planning on having to replace at some point later: - N62 water transfer pipe - N62 valve stem seals - Belts, tensioners and pulleys. - Vacuum hose to brake booster (Oil flows past check valve in hose and eventually takes out the booster) Looking forward to getting this truck road worthy with a little TLC and then enjoying the winter in it.
