  1. 1.5l Drain Plug

    Hey, is anyone out there proactively replacing their drain plug? I'm coming up on my 45,000km (30,000 mile) service, and thinking about replacing the plug before it leaks. I'm ambivalent about the setup. I've seen the best quality drain plug/gasket combos NEVER seal properly, and I've also had...
  2. Rear Hatch Leak

    2023 BS OBX 33,900km. Rear hatch leaks water like a sieve, seems to be coming through the top of the glass. This will be the 4th attempt at fixing it. Pics attached of corrosion. Has anyone had a similar issue that was actually resolved?
  3. Water Pump replaced

    Had the water pump replaced on our '23 OBX. I can't see where the dealer flushed the cooling system. Nor did they replace the serpentine belt. I know the stretch-fit belt on our 1.6l Fiesta is a single time use item, and would have guessed the belt on the Bronco Sport would be as well. Does...
  4. Glass Cleaning

    Well, we finally got our '23 OBX back Friday. Paint was corrected, the rusty roof panel was replaced and the power windows were reprogrammed. Engineering is looking into a solution for the rear differential noise, and a headliner with new clips is on order to alleviate a bad rattle around the...
  5. Tired of Waitng

    Well, it's been about 6 weeks since we dropped our '23 OBX off at the dealer. Hasn't left the bodyshop, still waiting for the mechanical diag. Worst part is, I'm kinda getting fond of the Chevy Equinox LS that we have for a rental. I even told the FoMoCo customer service rep that when he called...
  6. Rusty Roof

    Has anyone had any issues with rust on their roof panel above the windshield? This started out as a bubble, and is now rusty. 2023 OBX, 10,500km bought in March '23
  7. Best OBD to USB cable for FordScan

    So I'm thinking of getting FordScan for my "fleet" of Ford vehicles. We've got 2, my dad has a truck and my sister just bought an Explorer ST. What's the best cable to mate up with the app?
  8. Rear End Noise

    Our 2023 BS OB, in service for 3 weeks and 2500km, is at the dealership now for a howling noise in the rear diff. Has anyone had any luck getting the noise fixed? I've read several threads and Ford seems to like adding insulation to the rear. There's no way a diff should be making that much...
  9. BS Saturdays

    In today's episode of "How'd You Mod Your Bronco Sport Today?" we have OEM mudflaps.
  10. First Time Soft Roading

    Took (my) first decent drive in the Baby Bronc yesterday. Headed up to the family cottage, which is about 50 miles from home. Got almost 30mpg, which I consider decent. At this time of year, the roads that the cottage is located on are bombed out, and best traversed by a Hummer or Duece and a...
  11. Crossbars

    What are some brands of roof-rack crossbars that should be considered or avoided? Not looking for super heavy duty, but a product that'll stand up to carrying camping gear or kayaks to/from the cottage.
  12. Mall Crawler Tire questions

    Looking at putting a set of upgraded tires on my wife's '23 Outer Banks. Right now BF Trail Terrain's are looking like a good candidate, in P235/60R18. My question is, has anyone noticed their fuel mileage going totally in the shitter by putting a "heavier" tire on?
  13. Rooftop Tents/Tailgate Syle tents

    Hey everyone. Took delivery of our '23 Bronco Sport on March 2. Kinda curious about camping in one. What are some resources to find a rooftop tent or a SUV tent that can use the hatch.
