    Seat foam?

    Not too bad. I swapped out the heating pad recently. I used this link: https://www.foexplorer.com/ford_explorer_removal_and_installation_front_seat_cushion_cover-1265.html

    2025 Explorer Teaser Ahead of Tomorrow's Reveal

    The problem with that theory is the Canadian build site has the option for bench or captains chairs for the ST. I can see that it would definitely save money for Ford by offering fewer options and mainly set packages.

    Wiring

    The rubber boot easy easy to remove from the white plastic oval piece. You first should remove the oval piece! IIRC, tabs on both ends. Then fish the cable through the boot with some help from silicone lube.

    Blown Transmission

    Yeah, Ford wasn't able to prove it but that Crackpot Team at the dealership knew you did. Uh huh! F those guys for pulling that shit on you!

    Thinking about an explorer ST

    Yeah, someone posted. But the main problem is it looks MacGyver'd.

    2025 Explorer Teaser Ahead of Tomorrow's Reveal

    Maybe they were talking about wireless Carplay. BMW used to charge an upfront fee for that, and later a yearly subscription. Even later, they made it free as other makes started offering it for free. The point is, why can't something like BlueCruise be free?...at least for a few years just...

    Transmission Fluid Level in 2023 ST

    I have 4.5 level also. Perfectly fine for me. A quart below that, i was getting noticeable gear whine when cold. Not at 4.5 though.

    Thinking about an explorer ST

    If you don't want to risk the previous owners not getting known problems fixed under warranty, get a MY2022. Even then, you may have to get the differential bushing/bolt recall and backup camera recall done. Also, the 10 to 8" downsize to me isn't worth it. Save your money on other mods.

    Need 2020 Explorer ST Alternator-Battery diagram

    Sheesh. I had no idea those were high amperage fuses--thought it was just a distribution block. I guess by sheer luck I put them all back where I found them. Just as an aside, I never do car work on anyone else's car except our own--I never want to be responsible for a mishap like yours!

    Rear camera recall

    I was getting the blue screen every now and then. Did the latest IPMB module update and have not seen the blue screen in a couple of weeks now. Don't plan on getting the camera and wiring replaced if I don't see the blue screen. If it ain't broke, don't fix it... because chances are good they...

    rear diff bolt upgrade

    According to this, Class 12.9 bolt has 20-25% greater tensile strength than a 10.9 (OE) one. What-is-the-difference-between-a-10-9-and-12-9-Bolt

    Transmission build date

    Was the trans new, rebuilt, or salvage yard? I would only worry if it were salvage yard and even then, not all the transmissions built during that time period were affected.

    H&R Lowering Spring Step-by-Srep Install Video

    Even easier is not to even mess with the subframe? You will need to pry out the stock springs but lowering springs go back in with just a nudge down on the knuckle.

    Removal of Diff brace for rear axel bolt recall?

    Seems like dealer's are using different procedures to replace the bushing. Did Ford not come out with instructions for replacing the bushing for dealer's to follow?

    rear diff bolt upgrade

    It would be something if this upgraded bolt could replace the need for an aftermarket rear diff brace.

    Ford's Plan for Fixing Quality - CEO Reponds

    Ford has already taken a severe blow with their investments in electrification. The demand isn't there. The infrastructure isn't there. https://www.wardsauto.com/industry-news/ford-2023-profits-tempered-electric-vehicle-losses# EV losses ~$5B!!!

    Rusty Half Shafts on 5 Day Old New 2024 ST

    Here is a N1M7-3A428-AA on a newer Explorer connected to the new version intermediate shaft. Note that the inboard end of the halfshalf is female and the intermediate shaft has the splined male end. That is completely opposite of a 2020 halfshaft. Also note that this is likely a MY2023 or...

    Stereo issue after blue screen update by dealership

    I'd run a diagnostic using Forscan if you have it.

    Stereo issue after blue screen update by dealership

    Did you try rebooting Sync (PWR + FFWD... hold down both until reboot)?
