  1. Thank You Ford

    AND Ford is not the only one . . . They started removing dip sticks and calling the fluid ā€œLifetimeā€ back in the early 2000’s, maybe even earlier. Mt first experience was in 2002-2003.
  2. Post your toolboxes!

  3. MERRY CHRISTMAS

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! šŸŽ‰šŸŽšŸ›ļø ā€God bless us all, everyone . . .ā€
  4. Front fender fabric liner.

    Has anyone tried spray-on bed liner or FlexSeal spray (rubberized coating) on the fabric liners? I know some one mentioned it ages ago on the forum, but never heard of anyone actually doing it. I keep toying with the idea, but haven’t gotten up the guts to try.
  5. What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    Changed cabin and engine air filters at 40,000 mi they were filthy. Cabin filter was a breeze, even though I couldn’t get the glove box completely out of the way — my old, skinny arms got me into it. Engine filter was a b***h as I couldn’t get the stinking plumbing out of the way. Managed to...
  6. “Finally”… a correction for Rear Brake Moan Noise

    Parking brake won’t help. I always use the parking brake, and have had the moan since 03/21. Haven’t bothered with Ford ā€œcuresā€, consider it a back-up warning system <lol>
  7. Ford Repair and Maintenance Costs Lower?

    Don’t know if a warm up would make much difference with these new light weight (0/20, 5/20) oils they’re pushing for these engines 🤪
  8. What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    Found a mag-safe charger while Christmas shopping w/wife. 15a charger with over-charge and heat protection (according to the box) and mounted it to back of console with wire into the console. We’ll see how long it lasts, but at $9.99 (discounted at Marshall’s) and no more than I need to charge...
  9. #lastminuteshopping — 35% OFF Xmas Gifts for Car Guys!

    This year wife’s getting me (I picked it up on sale 😁) a 6 gal tank pancake air compressor.
  10. But............

    From what I’ve seen; 225’s and under can use cable chains, 235’s and up can’t use any chains. I bought cable chains (235/70r17’s), but have a ā€œplanā€ ( you know how those go). If I need to use chains I plan on mounting on rear wheels, locking up front-to -rear and going slowly. I figure I’ll only...
  11. Tire warranty

    Right, most replacement tires come with a road hazard warranty, but, I think OEM tire warranty only covers tread wear and mfg defects
  12. šŸŽ„ Holiday Road Roll Call: Share your Xmas plans, pics, and traditions!

    Have about a five mile round trip to wife’s cousin for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, wife won’t go away for the holidays — yet! In SoCal, so doubt I’ll need goat modes 😜
  13. Tire warranty

    Unfortunately, that looks like a cut in the sidewall, and I don’t think the tire warranties cover ā€œroad hazardā€ damage. Still worth a call to see what can be done for you
  14. Santa’s ride…

    Nice job, great story.
  15. 4wd error

    ā€˜21 Sport — still on original battery? On AGM battery, but a couple years old? May be time for a new battery. Just guessing.
