- 2020 explorer XLT AWD
I recently purchased a CPO explorer XLT AWD with just 23k miles. It immediately needed the tsb done for peeling window switches and I also asked them to reset the adaptive learning as the 1-2 and 3-4 shifts were harsh as was the downshifting when slowing down.
Picked the car up and they said if it's still an issue after a few hundred miles, bring it back and we'll take the valve body out and index the shift solenoids to the PCM. Sounded strange to me but, it's Been 1k miles with no improvement. So do I let them start messing with the internals? They claim it's been successful for others but I've not read of that specific operation on the forums. Maybe it was just poorly explained. It's a 2 day process according to them, no cost to me, all covered by warranty.
Also, with my AC on, the car makes a whine type noise that goes away with AC turned off. In my past experience owning many many higher miles vehicles, AC noise usually means the compressor needs to be replaced. Is compressor noise normal for these 2.3L explorers or do I need to push for a replacement? I've never driven any other explorers of this generation so I have nothing to compare to.
Love everything else about the car, great replacent for our ecoboost expedition now that we're downsizing.
