    Yes you will lose those settings. You will have to setup once again. Did you update your maps to NA 2 22 yet?
  2. Sync 3.4 Build 23188 Now Available 9/2/23

    If you check for updates using Wi-Fi from the vehicle itself, Ford will receive your current version status. I did this after updating using a USB flash drive.
  3. Ugly mpg with 1.5..Help

    Check the condition of your engine air filter. I assume it has never been changed. Do you have the OEM air filter still installed? Just remove the filter and tap it on a hard ground surface until the dust no longer shakes out and reinstall. Also check for any blockage around the air filter box...
  4. Timing Belt 1.5L Replacement

    After doing some research, I have a surprising answer. The 1.5L EcoBoost Dragon 3-cylinder engine uses a single timing chain. The item that needs replacement is the oil pump drive belt. The top photo is the drive belt. The bottom photo is the chain.

  6. Timing Belt 1.5L Replacement

    Is the wet timing belt just driving the oil pump? Are the camshafts operated by a timing chain?
  7. Brakes-96,000 miles and never replaced

    I have 96,000 miles on a 21 OB and I have never changed the brake pads. I have the moan in reverse, but I have never had the dealer address this. Are others seeing brake pads lasting this long?
  8. Timing Belt 1.5L Replacement

    According to the 21 owners manual the timing belt should be replaced on the 1.5L 3-cylinder engine at 150,000 miles. Does this engine have a timing belt or is a timing chain used to operate the 2 camshafts? I have only seen this service requirement in the owners manual.
  9. 1.5L power loss due to heatsoak?

    Heat soak? I have a 21 OB with 96,000 miles. I always use 87 octane. Why would I waste money. I have been in all kinds of weather and altitudes. In August, I was in 110 plus weather all week. No issues. What mode are you driving in? Normal, Eco, Sport? Go to a dealer and purchase the proper...
  10. How does the Bronco Sport compare to the new CR-Vs?

    You did not quote any sources. The Honda CVT transmission is a problem child. Look that one up.
  11. White, Black, Silver, Gray

    The most common vehicle colors on the road are white, black, silver and gray. These four colors are what most dealers feel save ordering. Just my opinion, but I feel these four colors are the worst look for the Bronco Sport. Green, Blue, Red, Brown, Orange/Yellow. All these colors are much...
  12. Goodbye to Area 51?

    Azure Gray Tinted Clearcoat sure looks good. But the Eruption Green Metallic is the color I would order today.
  13. Sync Navigation Map Update NA 2 22 Now Available - Installation Tips

    Review of NA 2 22. Compared to NA 2 21, this is night and day. I normally use CarPlay navigation, but I have been trying out NA 2 22. I find NA 2 22 to be the best in-car navigation I have ever used. Voice instructions are great. Visuals are great. If you have not tried it yet, give it a go.
  14. Sync 3.4 Build 22251 Default Issue

    Time for a call to Ford for release information on the update to correct the Build 22251 issues. I was told today, we are still looking at late September or earlier for the update to be released.
  15. Furious!!

    You purchased a used vehicle and assume that you purchased a new vehicle. You have no idea how the vehicle was maintained. The tires may have not been balanced and rotated on a regular basis. I have a 21 OB with 95,000 miles. My tires lasted 65,000 miles because of care and maintenance. I...
