    P0128 Thermostat Stuck Open

    Anybody able to comment on what coolant temps I should be seeing? P0128 has not returned yet; still seeing temps ~170 in relatively short around-town trips.

    P0128 Thermostat Stuck Open

    I had P0128 show up last week, and in a tizzy I cleared it (in hindsight I should have left it so the dealer could just take care of it). Wondering if/when it will come back on. My OBDII gauge shows coolant temps around 168-172 during my ~20mi round trips in 70-80 degree ambient air. Curious...

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    Update: my SA just called and let me know that the trans flush and flex pipes made the vibration 95% better. I asked if they tested it after each fix to determine what did it; he wasn't 100% sure, but thinks the tech was leaning towards the exhaust as the main contributor. I pick it up...

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    Talked to my service guy today - trans flush would be about $280 out of my pocket. He ordered the flex pipes and is trying to get that covered under warranty, but hoping the trans flush fixes it. Thanks again for the updates here; I'm salivating at the thought of the car going back to smooth...

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    Quick update. Car has been at the dealer for a few weeks; they can't diagnose what's causing it. Anybody else have any luck?

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    I just laid down next to the car on a cold start. You can definitely visually see (and feel) the drivers' side exhaust vibrating when it settles into the suspect 1200ish RPM range.

    Thanks for the update and good luck with the repair. Keep us posted with whether or not it solves the issue. Fingers crossed you get to the bottom of it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    The rear bolt recall? Not sure that would be related, at least not with mine. I can hold the RPMs at 1150-1250 in park/neutral and feel the vibration. It's noticeable anytime the engine hits that range (cold starts, driving, downshifts, etc.).

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    Any follow-up from your dealer? I'm about ready to take mine in - it's driving me nuts.

    Transmission / Driveline Vibration Issue 2022 Ford Explorer ST

    Keeping the RPM’s up above 2k on downshifts does help to smooth things out when in motion, but I’ve definitely felt the same rough vibration on startup in park too. Even if the engine is in the suspect ~1150-1300ish RPM range, it shouldn’t be transferring vibration like that to the cabin. I hope...

    Vibration at 1k RPMs & Briefly at Idle

    Apologies for bumping an old thread (again). @soloji87, did you have this done?

    Vibration at 1k RPMs & Briefly at Idle

    Has anybody in this thread found a resolution? I can feel vibration/roughness through the pedals at low speeds/low RPMs, almost like the trans has it in too high of a gear. It's smooth over ~2000 rpms and at idle. Curious if there has been an resolution or TSB for this specifically.

    rattling moonroof

    I added foam; likely to where you are describing - I found the factory foam and added a piece on top. Turns out, however, the rattle was coming from the rear panel itself. After lubing the seal on the exterior (rattle didn't resovle), I tightened the six 8mm bolts about 1/4 turn each and the...

    rattling moonroof

    Thanks for the detail! I’m within 3/36k, but avoid dealer trips as much as possible, especially for something so trivial. I’ll poke around up there and add some foam. Edit: for anyone else trying to do this, venting the moonroof gives you much more space to add some foam vs. trying to do this...

    rattling moonroof

    Mine sounds like it's coming from the interior crossbar trim piece rather than the moonroof itself (I doubt performing a panel reinitialization/alignment would solve anything). Might be a tall ask, but can you post a few picture with where the dealer fixed the foam pieces? I suspect that is all...

    Rattling noise coming from underneath new Explorer ST!

    Does anyone know when the flex pipe rattle was remedied from the factory? I have a 2022 (Nov 2021 build), and it rattles on cold starts. Want to check and see if my build should be immune to this before I start poking around under the car. It could always be a loose heat shield from when I...
