    Transmisión stuck in Park

    Not sure what year you have but my MY2020 had a gear shift module firmware update.

    Transmisión stuck in Park

    The charging system soon may be unrelated. Not sure if you have a code reader but here's something to check from Ford Boss Me:

    Rear Sway Bar End Links

    The stock ones work just fine. Keep them until their worn. Steeda sells an adjustable set if you must.

    Interior Rattles

    Hard to say. If I put a can in the cup holder, anything in the side bins, it'll rattle. Same for glasses in the glasses holder in the upper console. Not too many rattles otherwise on my 2020. I've also sound insulated the front doors and trunk though, and also I've owned a WRX so there's that!

    AWD Module Calibration

    Maybe they forgot to flash the AWD module with FDRS after they did the FADA delete. I would think there'd be codes though as there is no signal going to and from the FADA after the TSB. You have to think, either a major component of the drivetrain is wrong or the control programming is off...

    AWD Module Calibration

    NICE. Really should have been a recall. I wouldn't blame the engineers though. the modules used before and after the date ranges affected are fine.

    AWD Module Calibration

    Pay particular attention the codes. When I had the speed sensor fail, there was only one code specifically identifying a speed sensor fault.

    Burger Tunes

    Some platforms like the CX90, JB4 is all that there is currently. But for Explorers, just about any tune is superior. JB4 doesn't have any trans tuning at all. When I had one for BMW, it would produce a bunch of ghost codes which they no longer auto clear.

    2020+ Explorer front differential fluid guide

    I try to pump out as much remaining oil as possible and remove the fill straw. Basically just store it to allow any oil to drain out on a paper towel. There is only so clean you can get them. Do the same thing for my larger fluid transfer pump and also for my smaller syringe type transfer pump.

    2020+ Explorer front differential fluid guide

    I used the transfer pump that attaches directly to the quart bottle of oil. It only takes 0.6 qts if I recall. Oh, and in that link I referred to, you do not have to remove the front undershield--just the rectangular center one.

    Dangerous?

    You using an impact wrench? For just taking off tires, I jack up one whole side at a time via the pinch weld, do the two wheels in the air to a reasonable torque, then drop the side and do the other two on the other side. At the end, I will torque all the wheels to spec with the car on the...

    Street Pack Brakes Upgrade

    I've only used a powerbleeder and another time, a mityvac. I don't touch the brake pedal nor have the car on. No issues.

    Steeda Lowering Springs Creak

    You should not assume the aftermarket parts are perfectly designed. Steeda has certainly made their share of mistakes. If enough people complain about it, maybe there is some truth to it. There is a reason they stamp a mfg date and now, version on their springs. Still, the springs...

    Accessory (Serpentine) belt removal and replacement

    FYI: I had assumed these belts were good for 100k miles, but the owners manual states you just INSPECT at 100k miles and to REPLACE at 150k miles. The condition of the belt I replaced at 95k was very, very good so I guess that makes sense.

    Rotors

    The street pack is the longest lasting, best performing OE brake system I have ever had. I bought rotors and another set of OE pads at 50k thinking a change was coming soon. It didn't happen until 80k miles and to my surprise, there was probably enough pad for anther 20k miles--this with about...

    Accessory (Serpentine) belt removal and replacement

    There is only one belt on the 3.0L ST. If you just replace the belt, it is a far more easy task but I suggest you replace the other wear parts at the same time: belt tensioner (has it's own pulley attached), 2 idler pulleys. PARTS LIST: (prices at time of writing, Levittown Ford, for my...

    Explorer lunging at high speed while parking

    If the mats are not custom fit for the 2020+ explorers, get rid of them! They are a hazard and can easily be responsible for this. It is one of the issues where you have to spend a little more for custom fit to avoid damages in the thousands and potentially putting your life at risk! I never...

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    95k miles so.... Serpentine belt changed. Replaced the belt tensioner and the two pulleys so I wouldn't have to revisit that again... NOT FUN.

    JXB bushing insert

    The difference must be subtle because in my leisurely driving this morning, I could not appreciate a difference.
