    P0171 & P0174 4.0L SOHC's Sport/Sport Trac

    This thread saved me such aggravation! My truck threw the codes and after reading this, I immediately went to check that elbow. Sure enough it was cracked on the top in the corner. Now my question... What is the part number I need to order to replace the elbow?

    Locating the remote keypad code on a SPORT

    Awesome to have this stickied. My '01 Sport in fact had it behind the passenger side airbag.

    Upgraded to Navigation

    Welcome to the site! :wavey: A couple things to keep in mind for your situation... If you do not have the radio setup with the subwoofer, you will need to have the navigation radio reprogrammed as such. You will need to find an 09+ GPS unit which has Sync (I know that 2007 and previous did...

    Radio/NAV Control Illumination Question

    FWIW; I had the navigation radio in my '07 and all the buttons did light up.

    08 Explorer Factory Tint

    Any reputable tint shop should be able to tell you that information and match it correctly.

    Front Diff Seal

    It's funny you post about this. I just had our '07 in for inspection and they noticed the right front axle seal was leaking so they fixed it under warranty. Considering the time they did it in, I would have to assume they did it without taking apart the whole diff.

    Navigation System

    I swapped the factory navigation radio in to our '07 and it works great. (I still need to get it re-programmed to show the Ford logo (versus Mercury) as well add the functionality for the AUX input on the console.)

    Upgraded to Navigation

    You would need an 08+ factory navigation radio and yes, it should be plug & play.

    Busted '06 4.6L Motor Mounts

    Sheesh! No need to hate! :D I'd have to imagine you are in the .5% of owners of 2006+ Explorers that had to replace that part already.

    Ball joints cost

    I did the job on my '01 Sport without many problems. My main reason for not wanting to replace the entire low control arm was that I'd have to release the torsion bar, which is dangerous in itself. I'm not sure if that is the same for 02+ 4-doors.

    Grinding noise when turning

    2002+ Explorers (4-door) do not have the 2WD option, only AWD. I may also venture to guess it's a wheel bearing. Jack up the front of the truck and see if you can shimmy the wheels by grabbing a hold of them and pushing back and fourth. If they move, it's a bad wheel bearing.

    Finally some pics from my expedition in Mexico!

    Extremely clean truck! I like the tasteful mods!
