    2024 Ford Explorer Interior Spotted for the First Time

    Dont be concerned about the wheels, those are wheels from previous years. One thing I found out in talking with various Engineers on the vehicle programs they love playing games with the spy photo takers.They actually have a blast doing it so much so it becomes a competition. Like trying to put...

    TSB 22-2485 - 2020-2022 Explorer + Other Models - Wireless Accessory Charger Inoperative/Poor Performance With Magsafe Charging iPhones

    That doesn't surprise me anymore, everytime there is a TSB or SSM the dealer tells me they never heard of it and its not coming up when they run my VIN so they won't do it. Ford is brutal for this kind of communication to its dealer network.

    Wifi w/o Buying Data Plan

    One of the Engineers that works on SYNC told me they don't have it configured yet to pull updates down over cellular only through WiFi but Im guess the SYNC3 system sees your phone as just another WiFi hotspot not a cellular device. If you have unlimited 4/5G data then that's outstanding.

    Wifi w/o Buying Data Plan

    No there is not, we tried at work to do it. Then we tried to see if we could put in our own SIM card but the Ford modem uses ESIM so you cant swap SIM cards. Its locked down so you must use their negotiated carrier deals. Technically the only way is you would have to get very creative and...

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Its such a cluster F%$# system with absolutely no progress status of where the software is at any time during the update process. I'm still pissed that they can't do what everyone else does and power up the APIM, GPS module and SiriusXM module on remote start but leave the screen blank. Then...

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    I had the same issue with getting the Ford servers to acknowledge my vehicle was updated. Then it was explained to me you can get it to acknowledge by connecting to WIFI and requesting any updates. That's the only way it updated for me.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    OTA worked for me, its the very first time its worked. Took about 45 minutes. Absolutely no idea what changed, nothing noticeable.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Since owning my first Explorer back in 2013 I have never seen a smooth software update on any Ford multimedia software application. Even SYNC4 users are having issues. It just never gets better. Driving a Genesis GV70 last few days at work and Hyundai's multimedia system did an update in 20...

    Check your plugs

    Did the vibration at idle go away with the Bosch plugs installed? I always thought that issue was fuel quality?

    Ford Performance Tune

    The CA Inspection Centers are not going to get anything that tells them anything from exhaust so can the Inspectors check the engine calibration and determine if its the stock calibration?.....thats crazy. I bet they would never know.

    Ford Performance Tune

    I used 87 for first tank because I filled up before the tune was installed, no issues. Running 91 all the time now

    After Detail

    14 Speaker B&O front door rattle, vibration , ...not sure what to call it

    I just went back and read your sound deadening thread, that's very impressive. I wish I had the skill and ability to do that kind of work. The amount of deadoning materila and the time spent on all the panels is amazing. I noticed Ford has some silver sound deadening materials on the...

    Tail light difference

    That same tail light housing is a little cheaper at Levittown Ford Superstore. $487.00 https://parts.levittownfordparts.com/search?search_str=Tail%20Light%20Assembly&ptid=15029&make=ford&model=explorer&year=2020&page_id=&page_url=

    Tail light difference

    Police only light housing have special "Knockouts" for installation of emergency lighting modules. Headlights and taillights. The Police only headlight housing has no LED strip because that's where the thin emergency red/blue LED lights go. This makes it very easy for the Ford Mod Center to do...
