    Strange noises when turning left and rapidly stopping

    I've had a noise when coming rapidly to a stop for a while. It kinda sounds creaky, it's a few quick jolts of sound as I'm coming to a complete stop. Just recently I started experiencing a new noise when turning left at certain speeds, usually over 25mph. I have to be turning at a certain...

    Eibachs + PIU struts/shocks

    I am planning to install Eibach Pro-Kit springs and the PIU front struts and rear shocks soon. Can someone look at my parts list and confirm I have everything I need? Is there anything else I should replace while I'm in there? Will I need a spring compressor to get the Eibachs onto the front...

    Carroll Shelby CS10 (20x9.5, 37mm offset)

    I saw a great price on these wheels and liked how they looked. Would they work on our cars? Would a 295/40/20 fit on these? https://www.americanmuscle.com/shelby-mustang-cs10-gloss-black-wheel-20x95-cs10-295530-b.html

    Hesitation in higher gears under light throttle

    Sometimes on the highway, I'll be in 9th or 10th gear, and it seems like the car is a little shuddery. The gear isn't changing, but it almost feels like it's not sure if it should shift or not. I suspect it might actually be the 4WD actuator not being sure where to send the power. I got the o...

    Carplay/Android Auto AI boxes

    Has anyone used one of these? There seem to be so many options, some of the more popular ones being The Magic Box and Ottocast. However, I see some newer ones with more powerful processors, more RAM, etc. I imagine they all run a very similar OS.

    Search function

    Is there any way to allow the search function to accept strings that are 3 characters? There are a lot of abbreviations that could h searched for, but since they're only 3 characters, it doesn't work. For example, TSB, BOV, CDF, etc.

    Fluid temperatures

    Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what are the normal operating temperatures for oil, coolant, and transmission temp? Do the different drive modes have an effect on the temps as well? I'd imagine sport mode with its higher line pressure would cause some increase in the trans fluid temp...

    20" wheels?

    I am looking to go down from my stock 21s to 20s with an aftermarket wheel. Please feel free to show off your wheel setups! Ideally, the wheel I'm after would be gloss black, have a flush fit, and be lighter than the stock wheels.

    Leaking transmission

    I recently found that I have a very small and slow leak in my transmission. I noticed some red fluid on the heat shield every time I drove. It would especially pool towards the rear of the transmission, sometimes even dripping slightly off of the back portion of the pan. I removed the heat...

    Checking for leaks

    I will probably be taking a few short road trips this summer with the Explorer and want to check for the common leak spots before heading out. The one I'm most concerned about is the hub actuator/front axle disconnect. Can I peek under and see it, or do I have to remove the splash tray? I...

    Screen going black

    I have an issue with the screen being black after turning on. I can reset it with power and next track, but it has been happening more and more often. Any idea what would cause it?

    Window close issues

    I'm having some intermittent issues with my passenger front window. When I close it, it hits the top, and then automatically goes back down all the way. My initial thought was that it was not in the track. But that shouldn't cause it to go back down all the way. What could be triggering it...

    Other turbo upgrade options?

    I know that there are upgrades available from CR Performance and Pure, that basically modify the stock turbos. Do these generate significantly more heat than the stock ones, since they are still using the stock frame? Are there any other options in development? I'm no fabricator, but I...

    Drive Mode differences

    I did a search but couldn't really find anything. I just want to get a better understanding of what the changes are in the different drive modes. For example, I can tell that Sport mode stays in gear and seems to do some engine braking when the throttle pedal is not depressed. What is...
