    Wife Wants Explorer ST

    sometimes the 3rd row seats dont recline on the first button push. Sync3 lags like crazy on start up sometimes. and if you change the Satellite radio channel to early, it freezes. the fake engine noise has gone out once before, but came back the next day. the reverse assist (braking) sometimes...

    What’s the fastest you had your ST

    How many people warm up their Explorer ST before driving?

    modern engines dont need a warm up time. 10 seconds is long enough to get the oil pressure up and the fluid moving. the trans doesnt need to be warmed up either, transmissions love running as cold as possible. thats some stupid thing from the days of carburetors, when the auto chock would need...

    Wife Wants Explorer ST

    ours was built Aug 18th 2019, and havn't had any major issues. definitely some gremlins but they are usually fixed by turning off the car and turning it back on. given some time, ford will update the software and figure out the small things.

    What would you have purchased if there were no Explorer ST?

    we were looking at the 2018 Explorer Sport. when we went in June, i told the salesman I really wanted to see what the hype about the ST was, and he said they weren't getting them until September or October. dude called me back the next morning and said they just got one on the lot. went for a...

    Name ONE ST Feature others might not know.....

    one thing i finally found. there is a button on the dash near the emergency lights that activates the front camera so you can pull the nose up to something and not hit it.

    What’s that smell?

    its all part of a new car, the cats makes weird smells from the exhaust when they are brand new. also the seals are offgassing, brakes setting in, manufacturing lubricants burning off. enjoy it while it lasts, it just means your car is new. once the smell is gone, its an old car :(

    ST Drive Mode Enhance Cabin Noise

    just went and washed the car, got back in, put it in Sport mode and now the enhanced engine noise is gone. i personally enjoyed the fake noise, hopefully next time i get in, it comes back.

    Who new the exhaust tips on the Explorer ST were fake?

    i knew, only because i watched every review video on the internet weeks before we bought ours. and yes, they are for exhaust soot. that was a huge complaint from prior generation explorer owners. turbo engines seem to make a lot of soot.

    What’s the fastest you had your ST

    turbosmart ontario, ca

    i definitely like the sound of dual port. much more aggresive. according to that video you posted, it looked like the BOV was near the front of the engine. i thought it was on the drivers side near the turbo. am i mistaken or is there two BOVs on the engine. honestly, i haven't looked under the...
