I've come to the conclusion that this isn't going to get fixed at this dealer. Their tech shouldve kept it overnight maybe did some freeway driving. Coming back into shop with repeat problem like this that I can recreate with wot in a few minutes tells all. Wasting my time with them. In the mean time their sales team is calling me wanting to get me a new explorer lol. Um not happening. Do any dealers have dynos or something to recreate while monitoring real time? This one does not have anything like that
I am experiencing the exact same symptoms under the same conditions on my 2016 explorer with less then 28K miles. I have ruled out plugs and coils. The photo of the invoice you uploaded is no longer there, do you mind reposting it?
Hello there! I’d like to thank you very much for your help with a similar problem that I’d been having with an Explorer. I recently did a complete R&R of a transmission on a 2014 Explorer. While I had the old transmission out of the vehicle, my co-worker suggested removing the ring gear, so that we could see if it would be possible to reposition it. He wanted to see if we’d be able to minimize wear on the gear by rotating it to another spot. We removed the ring gear, and tried moving it just a bit. But, it turned out that the gear was indexed, so we ended up putting it right back where it had been. I installed the new transmission, and test drove the vehicle. Almost immediately, I got the check engine light, and codes for cylinders 2 and 6 misfires. We swapped coils, spark plugs, and fuel injectors with some of the other cylinders, but the codes kept returning. We even hooked up a noid light to the fuel injector for cylinder 2. When the engine idled, there was no problem. But, when I accelerated to approximately 2000 rpm, the noid light went out. Then, it would come back on again when the engine went down to an idle. I did some digging around on the internet, which led me to this forum. Thanks to the helpful advice from
