    Speaker upgrade 21 ST

    Thanks for all of the advice. I'll sit on my $$ and continue researching an upgrade. I'd consider doing a new amp, replacing the factory sub and adding the converter and DSP if I could find something that could utilize wiring already there and be semi plug and play.

    Speaker upgrade 21 ST

    Good afternoon all, I'm thinking about doing a speaker upgrade, not going all out just replace factory B&O drivers with either Hertz, Focal, or Morel's. I'm curious, has anyone used any of these and has anyone replaced the factory sub driver with another brand? I've completed the sound...

    Inner door panel

    Hey Unbroken, Back doors piece of cake, only 1 attach point for the windows to the inner door liner. Do the front doors have two separate attaching locations if just the one like the back? thanks

    Thanks Unbroken, when i was reading your post about sound deadening i saw the glass taped up in the pics but didn’t think anything about it. Do release ang fall back into place relatively easy?

    Inner door panel

    Hi guys, Anyone know how to remove the inner door panel on my ST? I've removed the outer, turned all of the 1/4 turn fasteners on the inner liner and have felt them release, but the top center of the panel will not come off. I don't want to put too much force on it and break it. Any ideas...

I plan on installing it myself once I get it back from my dealer after chasing this dang howling noise for the last 3 months (see other thread).

    Rear End Failure

    I am on my 3rd rear diff at 11700 miles. It all started with the howling noise at 65-73 mph. After my dealer replaced my rear diff the second time, along with all the other parts replaced, they contacted Ford Enginners. The second rear diff was for the 2.0 liter explorer, it was mislabeled and...

    21 ST Vibration and noise

    Greetings all, Just heard back from my service advisor, they are now looking at replacing the front differential! They used “chassis ears” to narrow it down to the noise coming from the diff. Allegedly no contaminants in the diff but who knows. interestingly enough, both front axles have been...

    21 ST Vibration and noise

    Thanks for all the replies, Wow! that is alot of issues. Anyone else getting the "howling" noise I'm experiencing at highway speeds? 63-65 and 71-77 or so? I had the tires checked and rotated, not it. It almost sounds like a wheel bearing but..... Dealer says they have a device that the can use...
