    2025 Explorer ST - Keypad question

    It is, the key gets saved as a CC on your apple wallet/ Google wallet and use it like a CC. You tap the door handle with the phone to unlock/lock the car and leave the phone on the center console which also charges the phone wirelessly lol No physical key needed at all. You can also send it as...

    Warranty-Safe Performance Mods

    Slight disagree there with a bigger IC outside of numbers. Car wont feel sluggish on those 90+ days even stock nor heat soaked after a lil run.

    Anyone have a 25 ST yet?

    Have you checked the oil? Curious if the flex pipe issues from the previous cycle were finally fixed as well. That makes an annoying rattling sound as well during cold start up's.

    2025 Explorer ST - Keypad question

    Dont rely on the app to lock/unlock things. If you get spotty service or the vehicle has spotty service, it will not work. It also takes a bit for it engage. Keypad works much better and faster in these scenarios I wished it had the NFC like the Aviators, use it all the time on my BMW...

    360 Camera disabled. Why? What’s the fix?

    Because its not broken since you dont have one on your SUV to begin with...... Its not a firmware fix, the hardware just isnt there physically...

    I think you're confusing what adaptive lights are. For those unaware what it actually does, see vid. I mean if Ford put them on the ST, thats great since they're also brighter. But going by everything stated, main headlamps are LED reflected and NOT LED Projected Adaptive lights, only a...

    OBDII Data on the touch screen

    Just about any OBD Dongle works for any car including the Explorer. Only reason to get this Dongle is to use it with FORScan or other more intensive apps on different cars.

    Usually my go to app is Torque followed by OBD Link, never checked if they're on AA though. Thanks for the info tho OP, will check it out

    2025 ST Deliveries?

    Agreed, this is the biggest issue with the full screens. When the screens get too hot, the screens will be glitchy and can fail. Buttons will always win. At least this time around the UI is Google's and not Ford's. Ford has probably the worst UI in automaker including the Sync 4.

    K&N Oil Filter

    I mean Kia and Hyundai are still in business lol They werent exactly great, hell, not even good cars in the 90's. You also have cheap electronic brands like Lenovo still around. Going back to topic, if it works for you, then good enough. Was just stating my opinion, nothing more.

    K&N Oil Filter

    If you ask me, i would never cheap on items that are inexpensive to begin with. Saving $10 on an item that can be critical if it fails isnt it worth it. But those are my 2 cents Just get the UPR plug, soo much easier and faster for oil changes

    K&N Oil Filter

    As @21BlackST stated. But on the Explorer, they're "drop in" oil filters, probably the reason why you're confused but were great on any other car, made things easier removing the filter.

    K&N Oil Filter

    A bit confused, the thread was about oil filters not air oil/dry filters OP, never had any issues with K&N oil filters in the past. Usually stick to Wix filters myself but thats personal preference with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Thanks Project Farm!

    Drivers side front window

    Get the car back ASAP. Hold the window button to go up for 20 secs or so, do the same going down, it'll program itself to stop properly. The techs are going to do the same exact thing but you'll be out of $200

    Ford Performance Tune released for Ranger and Bronco Raptor variants just dropped and its WAY better than the one for our Exploders...

    Oh i dont care for the name, I just want the 5.2 Predator engine on an Explorer

    Ford Performance Tune released for Ranger and Bronco Raptor variants just dropped and its WAY better than the one for our Exploders...

    The BRaptor and Ranger R have slight different engine components including different turbos vs the ST. So it was a given that they would make more power stock and tune vs ST. Even more so, because of the infamous single bolt fiasco, IMO, they played it safe. Else, im sure the power on the Ford...

    Sun Roof Fabric Issue

    New car warranty will fix it, happened to me about a bit over a year after purchasing new.

    Anyone have a 25 ST yet?

    Looks like you're correct, they're for the side mirrors. Ford once again undercutting the ST. Dont understand why they dont just add the same lights to both trims. Its a nice plus to have

    Anyone have a 25 ST yet?

    Auto high beam is different from auto headlights. The high beams turn on automatically when its dark and there's no lights/reflectors in front of you and go back to regular beams once lights are detected. Pretty positive that's what you experienced. Previous Explorers had that as well, they...

    Honest opinion of 2025 ST. Buying a 24.

    A couple of things, the new Explorer does not have Sync 4, it uses a Google infotainment. Not sure if they would still require a sub base system but might for Ford services. The Sync 4 nav will work for life BUT RTT and CB routing will not work which is almost standard for different automakers...
