Trim tool, preferably plastic, to get under the edges and lift enough to get your finger tips in. Then pull, pretty hard. It'll probably come off entirely in one shot, instead of one clip at a time.

Did you pull the trim piece off covering all the electronics on the windshield?

You might be successful with Forscan. As for the why, I have no idea. I do remember back in I think '08, both the wheel cylinders on my old K1500 blew out after an ice storm. But then again, they were the original wheel cylinders on a junkyard axle with over 200K miles on it that I'd...

That's still pretty low considering the operational temp on these transmissions is above 200F.

This is roughly what the boots look like, they fit the sheet metal like a grommet. Probably help a lot to get some plastic trim tools, and as mentioned above spray silicone is your friend.

You just made a list of potential problems with every newer vehicle on the market.

Damn they got people convinced displays just be cracking in the sunlight

Went to move the Explorer out of the rain today and after I parked I got one of those "Remote Features Disabled" notifications on the Ford app. Checked with Forscan Lite and the battery SOC was 32%? Since when? It'd had been hovering around 70%+. Anyway, drove to the gym later on in the...

I've gone through three of those, and posted on here about my success with it in the past. The 2nd one I warrantied with Motorola and was told the replacement would not be covered under warranty. The replacement they sent me worked for a few months and then suddenly stopped connecting. It...

How's it feel driving? Do you feel more planted in the seat? I had a Pontiac G8 GT with what everyone joked was kangaroo leather seats, and I always felt like I was sliding around in the seat through turns. Then I had a 392 Charger with Alcantara seats and I felt like I was glued to the seat...

True. I don't think weighing 600# or so less is even enough to compensate for that.

Depends on your tune. If you want to go partially or full ethanol (if you haven't already). Next comes upgraded fuel system/injectors, and then upgraded turbos. There may be some details in between, but that's the gist of it.
