My vote would be the tensioner, I had a rattling noise right at idle that would go away at faster speed. The tensioner fixed it,

Nothing exotic, just went with Monroe OEM eqivalents.

Did it all myself at home in my workshop, the small space beteewn frame and front of the engine was the biggest issue. Sourced my parts from Rockauto, about $700 invested including new struts.

Just as kind of an FYI to everyone here about the notorious water pump, I wanted to share my experience. I've known about the internal design and potential for catastrophic failure for some time, so I've kept a close eye on my coolant levels. My now high mileage Explorer has rolled past 181,000...

Wow, you bought the same vehicle we did. Could not find in stock the specific items we wanted, so we ordered also. Picked ours up on the 15 of this month. The adaptive cruise is hands-down a winner. It works better than I had expected. Slows you down as you approach a slow vehicle, maintains...

The two side screens? I assume you are talking about the side screens around the speedo? Our new 2014 EX has done that three times in two days. It only has done it while we are actively navigating a route. The first two times the nav was recalculating the route. I thought possibly it has to do...

:D Got the call yesterday that our Ex had arrived early in the morning. Ordered on Aug 30, picked up Oct 15. Salesman called early AM saying it had arrived, called after lunch with the good news it was ready and congratulations I had scored $750 Ford cash on the deal. Sooo..., I guess all the...

The brochure deal is really hit or miss, I requested a brochure and did receive the brochure but no coupon. Have tried additional brochures on different vehicles with no success. I found one reference to the FB coupon online that someone had gotten it but no details about how. The dealer...

Talked to my dealer the other day about my soon to arrive X. Asked about $750 private cash coupon, and any other available incentives. He looked on the computer and said there is a $500 facebook coupon out there. Anybody heard of this, and or know how to retrieve it?

The 2014 is on it's way to me, soon I hope, just asking for confirmation it's been done and still works on a 2014?

Work for 2014? Just a quick question, can you turn on DRL's as in this thread on a 2014 Limited with HID's?

Thanks for the information I really appreciate the response, gives me a little more information when dealing with my dealer. I'm not sure there is a screenshot anywhere of the order, but I have a copy of it in hand. BTW, when does the dealer know about the new incentives available? As in the...

Thanks for the post zrj20! Couple of questions. Does it cost the dealer to do this ? Do they have to submit some form of paperwork? And finally, my order is three weeks old, can it still be protected? Appreciate the help, Dave

Seems like a crap shoot I tried the brochure deal, didn't get any coupons or discounts. Some people are getting incentive protection, some (me) don't get it. Some people are getting $750 coupons, some are not. Been a Ford customer forever! Why such randomness in this procedure?

That's what I don't understand My dealer stated explicitly that the incentives are not locked in, will be whatever is available at delivery date. Your dealer says it's locked. What's the diff, why is what I'm asking, seems inconsistent varying from dealer to dealer. I'm seeking some definitive...

Just ordered a new 2014 X Limited, PM'd Crystal, she will update my order progress. Thanks!!! My question is on the incentives, cash, financing, etc. The dealer says the price is guaranteed (locked in) on the vehicle but the incentives will be whatever is available at delivery time. Currently...
