    2020 Explorer/Aviator Module Updates by Ford

    Anyone know how we could get a copy of this or will the dealer already know about this by name 20U29? My Explorer is a very early build and I am looking forward to updating some of the systems to current versions. It is never good to be an early adopter but this really helps.

    Head/Tail light Tinting

    I wouldn't try anything with a lot of curves/bends if you are using a pre-cut kit and don't have a lot of experience. There is no room for error.

    Sync 3 software update downloading

    I think 20282 is the best yet. No major issues so far and I've noticed quite a few running through the different versions since 7/2019. I think if you have issues and have not done a factory reset when upgrading for several versions, now may be a good time to do so. It is not much of a pain...

    Sync 3 software update downloading

    interesting. Maybe they did pull 20282. I think it was a worldwide release though. You could also get it from cyanlabs but you do have to follow the instructions very carefully if you do.

    Sync 3 software update downloading

    Ford Owner site: owner.ford.com There's a box that says Update Sync 3. Just follow that. That's how I updated to 20282

    MPG in Sport, ECO and Normal Modes

    In city driving, I can get one or two more gears available in normal mode but seem to be limited to 6 in Sport. But at highway speeds, all 10.

    Oil Vacuum Tank For Changing Oil

    https://www.amazon.com/OEMTOOLS-24938-Pneumatic-Manual-Extractor/dp/B07N7X4TP9?ref_=ast_sto_dp This is the one I use on my ST. It works great through the dipstick. Just don't get one that is too small. Our ST has 6 qt of oil. Doing the oil change completely from above takes much less time...

    Lane Centering issues.

    For whatever reason, sounds like the lane centering needs to be recalibrated. I have a steeda drop too and don't notice anything different. I do notice that the 360degree cameras are off a little bit now--just not big enough to get them recalibrated.

    Trying to find a place to do Mods

    I'd say most Ford dealers will do just about anything you want. They are already working on high performance Mustangs.

    2020 ST vs. 2021 BMW X5 4.0

    ST stock is not that fast. X5 40i is almost certainly faster. BMW is notorious for underrating engine power. That said, X5 is a smaller vehicle and you'd expect it would be easier to make it handle better and go faster.

    Wind buffeting sound

    Nope. Pretty quiet. Is it speed related? Any of that effect at a standstill? I recall someone having that issue related to malfunction of the subwoofer.

    *Sold*...question if may?

    There will be a lot more on the market as time goes by. 20% of Explorers sold are STs. That's alot. And knowing that for $1600 the street package upgrades the wheels AND calipers/pads, most would be hesitant to pay over $2000 as a matter of principal--even if you sold the base 20" set for $1000.

    *Sold*...question if may?

    Given that these are pretty much new take-offs, I'd say they are worth $1800-2000.

    Black Friday Steeda sale.

    I'm surprised you didn't get a fed ex tracking notice today. IIRC, got mine in 4 days (not including order day).

    2021 ST finally arrived!!

    congrats! you don't waste any time... I would also add that Steeda rear sway bar is almost mandatory.

    2018 Explorer Sport Wheels on ST

    Center bore just needs to be equal or larger. My 18" KMC winter rims have 72.6mm center bore and very thin hubcentric rings. Any place that sells rims can get you the appropriate hubcentric rings.

    2018 Explorer Sport Wheels on ST

    Plenty of us run 18" wheels with our ST with street pack. Just make sure the specs are OK. You cannot use the previous generation OE wheels for the aforementioned reason but if aftermarket, double check the center bore.

    Navigation update won't listen to me

    Your nav installation is incomplete, most likely leaving off the voice package. It should reboot twice if I recall. If you do a search of the other forum, you can find instructions to upload just the right files or you can try to reinstall the entire thing.
