    Automatic Transmission fluid drain and fill - vacuum extraction method

    Hose inserts about 3" if I recall. Seems like shifting is smoother but could be wishful thinking.

    Automatic Transmission fluid drain and fill - vacuum extraction method

    Nothing wrong with that! I used the opportunity to spray some undercarriage rust with Fluid Film and also keep an eye on my fix for the axle hub actuator leak.

    New SYNC Update 23188

    I know one member who called the Ford customer support line and did get their diagnosis fee credited.

    Automatic Transmission fluid drain and fill - vacuum extraction method

    Race Ramps (2 piece). Make sure to use wheel chocks with them (learned this the hard way).

    Automatic Transmission fluid drain and fill - vacuum extraction method

    This method is for the DIYer who wants to drain and fill their 10R60 with the least amount of hassle. The conventional method is dropping the transmission oil pan, with oil pouring out, maybe replacing the filter while you are there, sealing it back up with or without a new gasket, filling it...

    New SYNC Update 23188

    Actually, you can now safely install voice and gracenotes now that memory will be cleared before install. Leave auto detect on. Auto install.

    New SYNC Update 23188

    Not sure if the USB was done properly. I'd try setting up the USB again. Make sure the Sync3Updater updates to the latest version. They discovered when looking at Ford's 23188 USB that they cleared rwdata before install. That script has been incorporated into the new Sync3Updater. Also, do...

    Steeda Subframe bushings

    I think if you have a 2 bolt subframe, that method is A-OK. The problem is when you have one and that parts lookup is maybe listing the 2 bolt that you should have gotten instead of what's on your build sheet. If you look up a 2.3L 1 bolt subframe from MY2020, MB5Z-5035-F is listed--this kit...

    New SYNC Update 23188

    According to Cyanlabs, Ford included a script to clear the RWData, so this update should really be hitch free no matter how bad your memory issues were.

    Steeda Subframe bushings

    If the one bolt subframe was intended for the 2.3L, Im inclined to believe that this kit will not fit those STs. The 2.3L Explorers had subframe ending in "F" which Steeda says won't work. Its a little tricky for one bolters because as we all know, the model was spec'd for the two bolt but the...

    Cannot see the Vehicle Location in FordPass app

    Also, there is a Location setting in Sync under Connectivity. Default is off. Just make sure it's enabled.

    New SYNC Update 23188

    Cyanlabs gets it from Ford servers. If it's 23188, then that's what it is. No need to try to reinstall.

    New SYNC Update 23188

    Just because of the timing, it is likely 23188. Still think people with bad memory problems that can't currently even do a master reset are also going to have a hard time installing this new version. Edit: Ford Owner site saying Sync Update 3.4.23188 now available. Edit2: New install USB has...

    Cannot see the Vehicle Location in FordPass app

    23188 also. It displays my car's location but its not exact. iOS.

    Steeda Subframe bushings

    Just a heads up: Labor day sale at Steeda is live. Subframe bushing support kit is now $257 (was $280 2 weeks ago).

    Between the Two!

    Definitely the streetpack and Tech. The 10.1" display is underutilized but it's not much different than what's displayed on the 8". The 21" rims look a LOT better than the 20" rims IMHO. The street pack brakes are really great. I also like the massaging seats for long trips but don't use...

    Make sure you master reset after changing versions.
