    What did you do to your 5th Gen?

    Did new rear Ac line, flexible one, while doing it, I removed the motor cover... Luckily it was isolation wool they used, but had a nasty nest under there! Photo 1 Photo 2 I'd suggest looking once a year if any critters want to share a ride under there, so they don't!

    A/C Rear Line Leak

    JBweld was not able to block it. Gas always managed to find a way thru. Tried pushing it back every 1/2 hours, as it became thicker. No luck. So ordered the rubber line. Was a little challenging to reach the connector behind the motor. Jacked the car to give me little more room under. Used all...

    A/C Rear Line Leak

    Well, was not the oring... Still leaking, sucks bu only cost 30$. I think it was worth to try. I JBweld it, just applied a second time as I saw it was trying to leak again. Not sure if it is a good option but there is nothing like trying! Not an easy spot to get clean and have to be careful to...

    31.5" tire on Explorer Sport?

    This guy installed 31.5 Also added a leveling kit, not sure if really required, never really saw my nose lower. At the end he seems to mention some rubbing, some trimming needed.

    JackStand Points

    If you only want few inches, 1 or 2 2x6 under the wheel could be great. That would not collapse. Make sure you are align. May want to invest in ramps, or rent?

    Rear bushing... 4 days too late

    They found a rear bushing had to be changed. (Was the title) Sorry, was clear in my head... They did not really refuse warranty service. It is a few days past it, ended September 29th and they are not willing to flex the rules for me.

    Rear bushing... 4 days too late

    Hi all, sorry if this ain't the place or the way, but I need to vent a little... My 2016 sport doesn't seem to be the best of its class... Thank god I took the extended warranty! Been a week or so, got a tiny little humming that started. First I thought it was the brakes or tires, but then I...

    Wheel bearings - very short lifespan.

    Reviving this old thread, since this is about my bearing... I had 2 bearings changed, one RR in 2019 and the other last year. Don't recall if they were the same wheel. Thankfully, they were covered, don't recall if it was the 5year powertrain or the ESP... Now I think the noise is back, another...

    Complete Trunk dimensions, 2016

    46 is the door, but it is 40" between wheel well. Was trying to build some kind of angular rack to put the sheet at angle as it could fit. But anyway, it would not be long enough. Gratefully, there is the roof.

    Complete Trunk dimensions, 2016

    Hi all, been a while I passed by! Been a while I wanted to do this and today's the day! Pulled out my measuring tape and mapped my trunk. Hatch door opening: 40" at the 'top', 26" from bottom 46" where it starts to get narrow, 15" from bottom 46-1/2" at the widest, 2" from the bottom Little...
