    2018 Explorer XLT 3.5L. Engine Whine/Whistle Noise

    I have noticed mine doing this, I describe it as a faint windmill squeak and does it only when at temp and most recognizable when in drive thru’s. I did notice the other day that the squeak is louder when in gear rather than in park, at least for me anyway. Dealer told me it was normal but I...

    How to: PTU Oil Change (Tons of Pics) 2016 Explorer Sport

    Tackled the PTU and rear diff fluid changes today on my 2018 XSport. I have 49k on the fluids. I ended up using my mityvac brake bleeder to suck out the rear diff fluid. I have to say, it made that part of the job super easy and clean. Just had to empty the little jar a bunch. For the PTU, I did...

    5th Gen Explorer With LED Light Bar

    So I have an 18 Sport and ordered this exact grille from T-Rex. It DOES NOT fit the 18-19 grilles, they are slightly different. I pulled my front clip off and everything and it did not match up. I called trex up and talked with the engineering team and they said that since they have not sold...

    2018 Sport Rear Differential Cover?

    If I could find one with a drain plug, it would just be as simple as a drain and fill every time.

    5th Gen Explorer With LED Light Bar

    Has anyone come across a way to install a light bar above the front windshield? I have yet to find 5th gen specific light bar brackets for any size light.

    Installed Upgraded Transmission Mounts...what a difference!

    I would like to get a set of these. I email the guy over the weekend but still no response. Is the guy usually pretty good at responding to emails? Just wondering if mine got thrown in his junk folder

    What did you do to your 5th Gen?

    My extreme contact tires finally came in after about a 3 month backorder delay. They are 1.5” wider than the stock tires and are a night and day difference. It finally rain here in south Texas the other day and I took the sport out just to try the tires in the rain, and wow. It was taking...

    Engine squeaky noise

    I have an 18 Sport and have same noise you speak of. I like to describe it as a real faint windmill squeak. You can only hear it at idle on mine and I have taken it to the deal and the manager and tech could both hear it but said not to worry about it. I’ve never heard a motor make an...

    2018 Sport Windshield replacement

    So the wife smoked a large raptor with the windshield a couple weeks ago and cracked it up pretty good. I took it to a safelite in South Texas to get it replaced shortly after and have been having issues with the A pillar moldings fitting probably. A little backstory to the problems: When...

    What did you do to your 5th Gen?

    Just a heads up for anyone looking for continental extreme contact dws06 tires, but I ordered a set of 295/45/20’s today through discount tire and they told me they are on national backorder with no hard delivery date. Not sure if it’s just that size or multiple sizes.
