    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    I took my ST in a few weeks ago to have the rear axle bolt recall done. I had installed the AWR diff mount prior to the recall and removed it prior to taking it in. I drove it for about a week and everything felt good. But I decided to reinstall the AWR, why not I have it and what could it hurt...

    Gear Head Auto Octane Tune

    Thought I would chime in on this thread. After installing inter cooler and cat-back exhaust, I used GH AO tune. It was good but I kept reading about ZFG and tried his AO tune. ZFG is a bit more aggressive and shifting at times a bit harsh. I read that GH revised their AO tune and decided to...

    RTD+ Does not recognize ECU?

    For anyone else that experiences this in the future I used a laptop with the RTD+ and got my OEM file and sent it to ZFG. Since doing so the RTD+ now can read, write and data log via bluetooth and I don't need the laptop anymore.

    RTD+ Does not recognize ECU?

    I'm not using a PC I'm using my Galaxy S20. The phone connects to the RTD and I was able to download the latest firmware, it just won't recognize the "vehicle" it's connected to.

    Air Conditioning.

    The fan speed is not "Auto" controlled. Dropping he temp setpoint does not increase fan speed, you have to choose between H-M-L fan speeds.

    Engine flush at 13k miles

    it's just up selling, they're just trying to make money. No need to ever flush an engine in my opinion if you have been changing the oil on a regular basis with quality oil.

    Own and operate a small HVAC Test & Balance/Commissioning firm. Still a ways off from retirement, looking forward to it daily because the industry is getting worse by the day. No craftsmen in the trades these days that really enjoy and hone their craft. It's all about get it done, get paid and...

    What Companies tunes can be flashed in with a SCT BDX Performance Programmer?

    Just got my revised tune from Gearhead ghtuning.com for the added Whipple IC and initial impressions are really good. Only able to put a few miles on it last night but it definitely took it up a notch.

    What Companies tunes can be flashed in with a SCT BDX Performance Programmer?

    Which is what I did, I purchased it originally for a Ranger than traded in for an F150, got it unlocked and now use for the F150. Had to purchase a separate one for the explorer.

    All Weather Floor Mats

    https://www.tuxmat.com/products/8554-ford-explorer-6-seater-custom-mat?year=2021 I had these in my Acura RDX and loved them. They look very upscale and coverage was great. when I traded in the RDX they were two years old and still looked great. A bit pricey but worth it in my opinion.
