    Has anyone ever posted anything on this forum in the for sale section and had any luck selling it or is it better to use ebay or craigslist? I need to get rid of a full set of black weathertechs and a White Platinum sharkfin but I noticed that you must also be an Elite Explorer to post items for...

    Low Idle-stall when using AC

    2001 Explorer Sport 4.0 V6 Main blower motor has not worked for a few months, so the AC has not been used either. Just replaced the blower, resistor and relay. Blower now works. However, now when we turn on the AC, the idle is dropping extremely low and cycles between normal RPM and...

    Simultaneous Tire Pressure Sensor Fault and MFT reboot

    Simultaneously received a tire pressure sensor fault and MFT reboot. Doubt they are related, but odd that they occurred at the same time. Just had the EX in on 2/21 for oil change and tire rotation and also to have MFT reloaded due to other previous problems. MFT restarted and seems ok for the...

    Nav issue or MFT issue

    Is this a problem of the NAV functionality or as a result of MFT? Screen either goes blank or only shows partial information. This occurs quite frequently. Other areas of MFT menus also go blank as seen in the photo showing the radio interface where the AM/FM/Sirius selections are supposed to be.

    Cursed, I'm not meant to enjoy my EX

    I am seriously beginning to think that higher powers are trying to tell me something.....I'm just not meant to enjoy my EX for any reason..... I'm ready to give up..... First I was rear ended 3 months after purchase, then all the crap I went through with the TSB's and oozing foam and all...

    Oozing with frustration

    Literally.... After getting the roof rain noise TSB completed, the dealer managed to get foam on the headliner and various other interior areas. Long story short, they have already replaced the following: 1. Headliner 2. Windshield (had to remove windshield and A-pillar obliques to...

    Fabulous Fords Forever Show - SoCal

    This may not be the right forum for this, and I'm sure an admin will move it, however, I just wanted to remind everyone: The 27th annual Fabulous Fords Forever show is this Sunday from 10:00am - 3:00pm at Knotts Berry Farm in Buena Park California. While I'm sure there will be plenty of classic...

    Baxterdown - Yours is much nicer! IMO

    Saw this at my local dealer, it belongs to one of the service techs. Personally, I don't like it, but I'm sure others will. I think that Baxterdown's is much more elegant looking. First things I noticed: 1. Painted lower trim to match body paint color (same as Baxterdown) 2. 24" rims and...

    Here's my wind noise

    Tried to do a video to show the noise i am experiencing while driving above 40+ mph. Dealer acknowledges the noise but not sure of a fix.....this is AFTER having the a-pillar TSB fix done. http://youtu.be/xb5T9Dhp6RA

    Cabin noise level

    I previously had occasional windnoise as most have. After my A-pillars were replaced per TSB, I now have constant wind noise that the dealer has acknowledged but is not sure how to fix. This wind noise is pretty substantial in my opinion and I have to turn the radio up to try and drown it out...

    Grooved Brake Rotor??

    Should my brake rotors already be grooved? I have never had a vehicle that the rotors grooved like this before unless I let the pads get really worn and low. Vehicle has 15K miles on it. Could this be related to the brake squeal TSB? reason I ask, is that a couple times in the morning when its...

    Any thoughts of trading MY11 for MY13?

    With the many issues those of us with 2011's have endured, curious if any of you have thought about trading in your 2011 for a 2013 in hopes that all the problems have been fixed??? I myself have thought about it but the negative financial impact is what would hold me back even though my 2011...

    A-pillars taken from Range Rover

    So maybe this was brought up before, but after looking at a few Range Rovers on the street it's apparent that they share the same a-pillar design. Funny thing is, if you do a google search, seems they have problems with noises and a-pillars falling off and such too! So we are not alone. Does...
