yes. about 45k miles to be exact. It certainly is better to seal it up when it is dry and clean and not actively leaking.

Stock mufflers with 4" black tips, MRT H-Pipe. I liked it a lot. That ST was totalled though and now have a 2026 ST that is stock with 4" tips for now.

You are making a lot of assumptions. I don't think keeping the new TPMS in the cabin is a good way to test them. Please do us a favor and just install them. The Ford system automatically relearns the TPMS sensors and knows which ones are in which wheel after a short drive. Keeping them in...

If you have not had the FADA oil leak fixed, then this oil leak is exactly that until proven otherwise. See: https://www.explorerst.org/threads/leaking-oil.5533/ This leak will affect ALL 2020 and 2021s that have the defective o-ring on the inboard side of the FADA.

BCM failure would be unusual. TPMS end of life is the norm for all 2020's out there. Just get the new TPMS installed

... yes, the muffler hangers (one on each side). The bent metal rod can rub against the round metal part. You have to rule that out.

When I had the Gibson, I had a drone at that RPM. It was especially notable at highway speed giving light throttle to maintain speed. I checked everywhere for any signs of rubbing or leak and could not find any. It was annoying enough to scrap the whole axleback. FENG isn't really noticeable...

Pretty neat they can update modules now... not just the infotainment.

Either you have a leak now or it's still contacting somewhere. The stock exhaust should be pretty quiet, DP or no DP.

Curious if you got an alignment yet. Dropping the subframe runs the risk of the subframe moving potentially causing alignment issues.

I didn't even know there was an automotive goo gone and that adhesive is so stuck on the plastic, I'm not sure it would work! Let me just warn you... don't do it! Not worth it! I'm waiting until it gets warm to fix the damage to that taillight from goo gone and rubbing.... easily damaged!

yes and yes

Finally got around to installing new TPMS sensors into my old winter wheels that I used for my 2020 ST. Got the 433Mhz sensors from TPMSBargains and used a BeadBreaker to get them replaced. No re-balancing because i assumed the sensors are about the same weight; Drove on the highway today and...

As others have said, the Steeda rears almost don't look like they are lower than stock. The Steeda ride is noticeably stiffer. I and others who live up north have had issues with the finish of the springs degrading--especially the rears. It was bad enough that after three years, I purchased...
