Hi All, Does the sound system in the ST default to the Sirius radio or is there a setting for this? I mainly listen to music on a flash drive but when I turn the vehicle on, it seems to always revert to Sirius at a higher volume. Thanks for your thoughts!

Thanks for the update Unbroken! Yesterday, I put it all back together until I could get more info. Everything seemed to be in working order. I used the old pads until I could learn how to correctly retract the pistons. I did learn how to put it in brake service mode last night. Heading into it...

It's all good! I tried an Auto Zone and they didn't have anything that intricate. Just your mainstream pusher styles, not screwers. Now that I have the info you gave me, I believe I can make do.

My last vehicle was a 2012 Escape Limited and it had drums in the rear. That seemed counterproductive considering the 2005 Escape I had before that had disc. Neither were integrated systems.

I put silicone paste all around the rubber boot. I was unaware of the screwing process. I'm going to retry tomorrow with the ST in service mode and screw the pistons in. I looked at the vid in your link. Apparently, it was for a 2019 and I couldn't get it back out of service mode. Found a vid...

Man, that's the first I've heard of that! Been changing brakes on all of my vehicles as far back as I can remember and they all had compressible pistons or shoes in the back. How far off was I? lol Thanks for the insight and I'll carry on with that technique tomorrow!

Hi All, Was replacing brakes on both axles. Did the front axle yesterday with no problem. Today, thinking the back would be easier, (and it should've been) I ran into a problem. I can't compress the caliper piston so it would fit over the new pads. I made sure the brake fluid reservoir cap...

Yup! :)

Same here.

I think Ford's version of a cam toy/transformers is in order. lol It doesn't bother me at all, just wondered if it was normal for this vehicle. BTW, don't let your mom see what you do with a vehicle you just turned on with your presence! :D

Yes, I thought about the fuel pump but didn't think I'd hear it more than once for the startup process. I'm used to hearing it in the fuel tank but maybe it's located further up front on the ST? That's where I'm hearing the sound. It sounds more mechanical though like an apparatus is moving...

Hi All, When the door is opened on the ST, I hear a motorized sound from underneath. (not the mirror) I also may hear it again after the door is shut before the engine is started. Any idea what that may be? Probably a routine initializing but just curious. Thanks!

Awesome, thanks! Looking forward.

Hey hbalek, I guess we're neighbors. I'm currently living in Kensington. :)

Wow, I guess there's different variations of parking assist. With the 2012 Escape, you just had to turn the directional on what side of the road you needed to park and then push the button just once. It would then hunt for a space at least one and a half times the length of the vehicle and then...

The turbos only spin high rate when high boost demand is present. They run off of the exhaust so when the engine stops, so do they. At that point, there is no spin. They need rpm to engage but it is engine 'load' that activates them. In my case, the turbo timer was used to let the oil and...

I guess that will be a challenge keeping "blue cruise' from shooting warnings when monitoring your dash or display entails taking your eyes off the road. :) Was familiar with adaptive cruise but the stop and go feature was new to me. So is perpendicular parking as my 2012 Escape only performed...

Thanks Ryno12!

Thanks Blue Beast and thank you for your service!

Hi All, I've had the ST just for 2 weeks now and it seems every day, I find another feature/option that's not obvious and hard to know unless someone tells you about it. They certainly are not listed in the sale options. 1. The little pocket in front of the center console is a wireless charger...
