    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Some of us here like to use an oil extractor instead of getting underneath. Works pretty good.

    Try an oil extractor. No getting under the vehicle and works pretty good.

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    Same here. I like the look of the hitch. I just have a rubber plug in mine.

    Request for some info - undercarriage fasteners

    I have gone to several different dealers for warranty work, but for different issues. Kind of weird I even have to say that since I bought my ST brand new. Like wtf. Anyways, I think he should give the dealer who replaced the engine one more chance to get it right, then seek an alternate dealer...

    Catalytic Converter Cracking

    Yes, you will get the exhaust smell in the cabin every time you start the ST. Smelled worse than my 67' Camaro. The smell from flooring the gas pedal is different.

    ST lagging when in reverse

    Yes, they are required to give you a loaner while under warranty. The dealership will be reimbursed by Ford while the vehicle is in for warranty work. I went through this several months ago when both my catalytic converter and throttle body went bad about the the same time. Dealer balked at...

    ST lagging when in reverse

    Yes, if you have the e-brake or auto brake on you may feel a slight hesitation before the vehicle moves.

    Muffler flex seams having a leak...

    If it is a 2020 ST you will need to make sure that they replace the left side catalytic converter. This needs to be replaced on most of them. I had exhaust fumes in mine also. Dealer can expedite getting parts using the right procedure.

    Anyone else have oil leak problems

    If you otherwise like the ST, keep taking it back to the dealer to get it right. And yes, they are required to give you a loaner or they have to pay for a rental. This is covered under the warranty just like repairs are covered. Ford will reimburse the dealer, no worries.

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    Hopefully Hopefully you didn't buy it at Preston Ford with the lifetime warranty. You will never be able to keep up with the requirements in order to keep the warranty active. It will cost you 2-3 times more than a new engine would cost for them to honor the warranty. They will charge you so...

    All weather floor liners

    I would say the Ford all weather mats are the best rubber mats, but I recently just replaced the front ones with 3D Maxpider Kagu floor mats that I got from Autoanything. Not sure if they are the material you are looking for, but they look the best and fit nicely.

    Speeding Ticket Today

    It is hard to get above 50 on the roads I typically drive on. They love to drive right about 49 mph here in a 50 mph zone. Not sure how they can stand me riding their bumper. And I drive with my headlights on all the time. Wife says I am lucky I haven't been shot yet.

    Door keypad issue

    This is how I lock my ST because the keys always stay in it. You may also use your phone to lock it, as my wife does at nighttime.

    Blade antenna color

    My 2020 is white, same as paint. I did think they made them all black after MY20, but I guess not. The 2020 does have nicer looking roof rails, in my opinion.

    Can roof rails be installed after delivery?

    I use mine every week, when I wash my ST and dry the roof. It is a great grab bar.

    SLD 4 brand new stock ST rims and tires for sale. Less than 500 miles. In the process of purchasing new 22 inch rims and tires for the new ride. $1600.00

    So the tires have been dismounted from the wheels? I am in Maryland, but would like to just swap out the wheels without going to a tire installer.

    Forscan Auto Start/Stop turn off?

    Someone in another thread mentioned disconnecting a wire to the battery or a wire that goes somewhere that reads the battery voltage, as the start/stop feature does not come on when the battery voltage is low. Not sure if doing this would cause a host of errors.

    SLD 4 brand new stock ST rims and tires for sale. Less than 500 miles. In the process of purchasing new 22 inch rims and tires for the new ride. $1600.00

    They had to dismount the tires to do that, should have just gotten new sensors on your new wheels.
