The handheld is a livernois mycalibrator and tune was made from Livernois. Ford just slapped their name on the handheld and tune, but it was created by Livernois. Regardless, the handheld is vin locked to your specific vehicle

2020 Platinum GH AO Tune, CV FMIC, AEM Drop In Filter, "Great" California 91 Octane Couldn't for the life of me launch above 2200 RPM without wheel hopping. Best run came at 2100 RPM launch. Still trapped pretty decent despite the high DA and humid weather. Definitely need better tires, should...

Im actually surprised they let you rent the toy hauler considering its way over the towing limit especially the tongue weight Glad to know it towed well for any emergency times

Its vin locked so not possible. If anyone can do it, itll be livernois only as it is their tune and handheld tuner. They also charge $300~ to unlock their handhelds

Well, unfortunately, these are no good for the Platinum Explorer's. The road noise was extremely noticeable after installing the inserts on any speed, pretty loud on a flat road. Made sure the inserts were installed correctly and re-checked the bolts were torqued properly after driving with...

Do you have the JXB inserts installed? Just looking at options if they're even worth spending the money on. Increased NVH, seems like more like an annoyance dealing with the clanking sound than the unknown longer bushing life.

I take it, the front sub is in the middle area between the captain chairs? Any pics? It would be nice if they would add midbass speaker's like BMW does in the front seats. For the most part, the bass still sounds great in the HK system.

So seems like its a hit or miss on them for the 2 bolt people, so best to just stick with the Whoosh Stronger bolts instead But even then, wont the 12.4 bolts be more prone to breaking IF it bends as opposed to the stock 10.9? Wouldn't the 10.9 benefit more especially for the rears that move a lot?

Main thing you need to be worrying about is beefing up the rear end if you have a late 2021 - 2024 Explorer ST, single bolt's tend to break. Top off your transmission fluid if its below the line, always add 6.5 qts of oil during oil changes for those hard launches. Add steeda toe links and...

Regarding the original post, i mean there's literally a Ford dealer about a mile away from Valencia and Soledad Cyn lol Would be weird not seeing any ST's nearby

NONE of the Explorer ST's from any year's came with an engine cover nor did the Platinum's....Only side covers which was for 2020 only. The 2.3 Explorer's however do, are you sure you dont have an ST-Line? Did you pay for the oil change or was it one of the freebies? They will never add full...

As others posted, its a hit and miss. Got mine fully done under 10 min. Make sure the Sync 3 is fully updated. RC1 is the way to go, there still some small bugs but its reliable. Make sure when installing RC1, you move the files to the root dir. Else, it wont work. Also, wont play nice with...

On a N/A engine, that would be correct. However, an FI engine such as the one in the ST, air pressure is increased by the power adder. So yes, higher octane would still matter and can still make a difference even in 4k elevation for the ST.

Wired. Going by the Forums and youtube videos, others have had that issue as well Using the latest RC1 build

Have a 2020 that had transmission repaired recently by Ford dealer, under the powertrain warranty. Been having issues since I first purchased it new, but was always told it was normal, go figure. Didnt find out about the low transmission fluid being low in 2020 Explorer's until about 2 years...
