I have a 98 navigator with the same problem. I REPLACED THE VACUME HOSE THAT CONNECTS TO THE REAR OF THE MANIFOLD. THE HOSE STARTS FROM THE PVC AREA WITCH BENDS TO THE BACK OF THE MANIFOLD.SINCE THEN ITS WORKING FINE. I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.

It was the rear A/C expansion valve. The dealer replaced. There is a TSB for that issue. NVBanker nailed that problem on the head before I even went to the dealer or read the TSB.

Tapping Noise Around Drivers Door Frame by lbinh

2005 Navigator Ultimate. 13K Miles. Gas prices hurt but love this family car.
 
I have this tapping noise around the driver's door frame when the body flexes while driving over uneven road surfaces. I think it is the weather stripping. Brought to the dealer twice and all they did was spray silicone on the stripping. Helped very little. Noise still there after that and eventualy gets worse over time.
 
The noise sounds like a piece of felxible rubber being pressed and inched back and forth over a glass surface. Like a sticky rubber sound and not like the clean glass streak sound(if you now what I mean). The door alignment to the car body looks flush. The weather stripping is new.
 
Could the door not be aligned properly and making the door seal too tighly and pressing against the rubber weather stripping to hard? The door from the oustside looks flush. Or, do I have defective rubber weather stripping? Looks normal to me. None of the other doors have this problem. Any insight is appreciated.

Try rubbing armor-all on every rubber part you see and then notice if that makes any change. Also rub some on the painted part the weatherstrip contacts.
It's not a permanent solution but will help you ID the problem

I HAVE A 98 WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. CHECK THE VACUUM HOSE THAT GOES FROM THE PVC VALVE TO THE REAR OF THE MANIFOLD THAT SHOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HOPE THIS HELPS

I will try my McGuires rubber protectant as a temp. fix. Armor All, on the other hand, is actually bad for vinyl and rubber. All about the shine and can deteriorate vinyl and rubber (My old Nissan dash cracked b/c of it).
 
The silicone spray they used was actually better than any rubber protectant like Armor All and others. It is actually a lubricant.
 
I will continue to hound them for a permanent fix when I have some time. Sometimes, as in my case, IDing the problem and getting them to admit/fix it is very difficult.

Well, good luck. My 03 did that the whole three years I had it. I just turned the Stereo up louder. With the A/C blowing in the summer, and the radio rockin', I barely heard it. I never did try to get them to fix it. I know from experience, they can't.

Am I making a mistake? BMW X5 to Navigator? by jwren

I ran out of space in my X5 and my lease is up on my X5 (BMW) I have two little ones with a double stroller and two car seats. So I need lots more space.. I just ordered a new Ultimate Nav 4x4 and now am hoping I didn't make a mistake. I guess I got a little spoiled on quality and now am hoping that Lincoln doesn't let me down. Please tell me I didn't make a mistake and that I will be happy with this car, as so far I love the test drive, but I know that doesn't always mean everything about the car. I am just hoping I didn't buy a lemon . What can I expect? thanks
