    What is everyone using for a Factory Service Manual?

    I didn't even know that online one existed. Thanks!

    What is everyone using for a Factory Service Manual?

    My last new vehicle was a 2007 Explorer Sport Trac and I had the paper book 2 volume version of the FSM for it. Since that time I know Ford has gone electronic. I see several populated on eBay for my 2022, but hesitant to pull the trigger on one as they seem quite inexpensive. Not really...

    For Sale Steeda 555-8141 Rear Differential Brace, $450 shipped USPS Priority in the US

    Steeda shows this as working on 2020-2023 models. It may fit 2024/25, but I'm not sure. The brace was on for about 100 miles. It does cause a little bit of driveline noise which is why I'm selling it. My wife could hear it she said. I just turn the radio up myself, but happy wife, happy...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    After selecting "enable", writing it and a restart of my Timberline, I am now enjoying the high fidelity sound of HD Radio along with the extra channels that are available in my 2022 with the B&O system. Thanks!

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    Where in Forscan did you find it? I haven't played much in it yet on my Explorer, but we're been using it on the Ranger. Is it in the BCM section?

    Does your 2023 Explorer Timberline have Ambient Lighting?

    My 2022 Timberline also does not have it. I read the manual several times and it tells you how to use it and enable it, but it's not there. It's just not included any longer I guess, but not documented anywhere. I also have the Technology Package. Here's another thing that makes you wonder...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    I miss having it is all. My last Explorer (2007 Sport Trac) had it on the head unit I installed in it. It's not the audio quality I miss, but the extra channels. The station around here had extra channels for news/talk and sports. One had a 80s only channel and the country station had a...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    Just wanted to quote your reply again as I went to the Ford site to build/Price. It seems that the HD radio doesn't show as included with the B&O system until the ST-Line, Limited, ST, Platinum and King Ranch. It seems to skip over the TImberline even though it is higher in the lineup (between...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    Interesting. Thought it was standard equipment these days. Even the owners manual where it talks about HD radio doesn't specify the usual "if equipped". In my Google searches I see that the Maverick only includes it if you get the B&O system. Also the F150 groups say that it doesn't show...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    No it doesn't mention HD Radio removal. The only removal credits are Auto Start/Stop and Wifi Hotspot. This one was built before they were offering credits. I'm second owner. First owner ordered this vehicle optioned up how he wanted for his wife as a surprise. She didn't like it so it was...

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    I can't even find the option. In the manual it says to go to the settings menu for the radio, but the only options I can find are the Sirius settings. No settings menu is present for the radio only.

    Is there a place I missed to turn on HD radio?

    I have a 2022 Timberline with the Technology Package (12 speaker B&O system). My brother was looking at my vehicle comparing it to his 2021 Ranger with the B&O system and asked me why I didn't have the HD Radio on. I wasn't sure. I did some searching and found some reports that it is just a...

    FORD EXPLORER OWNERS CAN NOW BUY THE TIMBERLINE’S SKID PLATE

    If you need to change the filter, the drain is easy to get to. They are only a few inches apart.

    FORD EXPLORER OWNERS CAN NOW BUY THE TIMBERLINE’S SKID PLATE

    On my last change I added a Fumoto valve to drain it and bought the hose that attaches to it. That'll help with the oil drain part (it would initially drain ok, but as the flow slows it would curl back and go onto the plate..) For the oil filter I tried something new this time and didn't get a...

    FORD EXPLORER OWNERS CAN NOW BUY THE TIMBERLINE’S SKID PLATE

    There's no access panel to remove or replace. Only the small square hole for filter and oil drain. The oil tends to go onto the top of the plate too. Maybe I've just not yet mastered it in my Timberline yet as I've only done 2 changes on it.

    FORD EXPLORER OWNERS CAN NOW BUY THE TIMBERLINE’S SKID PLATE

    Great news! Now everyone has the opportunity to spill oil onto the top side of the skid plate for it to drip out in about 4 different places when doing an oil/filter change! 🤣🤣 I have a Fumoto valve sitting on the workbench for my next upcoming oil change I'll be installing with the optional...

    Timberline or Hybrid

    I have the cruise control set to 4 over the posted speed limit. This means I run at 74/69 depending on the Interstate/Highway speed limit. My usual route to my brother's house is fairly traffic free and is about 90 miles each way. Most weekends I'm pulling a small trailer (Jetski trailer) set...

    2023 Explorer Button Purpose

    It turns the lane keeping system on and off. https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/vdirsnet/OwnerManual/Home/Content?variantid=9013&languageCode=en&countryCode=USA&Uid=G1977326&ProcUid=G2043451&userMarket=USA&div=f&vCode=1FMSK8JH7NGC40792&vFilteringEnabled=True&buildtype=web

    2023 Explorer Timberline Tangerine Accents

    You say inlay, but are they just vinyl stickers, or are they plastic and rigid? I'd like to find some plastic letters to go in the side skirts in the orange color (I put red ones in there for now) and also I think an orange inlay on the timberline logo in the front bumper would be nice to find.

    2022 Timberline driver seat issue

    No, it's not the lumbar. The "gap" I feel in the bolster runs up the entire side from the lumbar area to the shoulder area.

    2022 Timberline driver seat issue

    Not sure if this is just me being picky or not, but I just can't get comfortable in the driver's seat. The day I bought my Timberline I had a 8 hour drive home with it, and from the moment I sat in the seat something just didn't feel quite right. Something in the back seems to poke into my...

    2023 Explorer Timberline Tangerine Accents

    I ended up just putting red letters in the side skirts. Better than nothing and can't really see the orange accent to compare it to right away. I would love to find some in that color along with an insert for the Timberline logo embossed on the front bumper. From what I've been able to find...

    2022 2.3L Slow to shift from drive to reverse

    Sounds like the 6R60 in my Explorer Sport Trac. Such a pain to deal with if you wanted to check it or even change the fluid. It's like a little 2.5 inch dipstick sticking up next to the exhaust. I thought that this is what I was feeling since this is my first vehicle that is electronic as far...

    2022 2.3L Slow to shift from drive to reverse

    I have nothing useful to add other than I think mine does the same thing. 2022 Timberline, just over 3000 miles on it so far. I noticed a week ago when backing into my driveway it seemed like it took a while to go into reverse but figured it was just the way it was supposed to be. My last two...
