You bet! Most welcome. That's exactly the message I was trying to convey. I actually drug my feet buying a direct injection engine for a long time because of this. The BS is my first and only (so far). Still hoping I don't regret it. :cool: Glad to hear a success story on your Mustang...

My great uncle had one of those Honda Mini-trails. I thought it was the best thing ever. I only got to ride it once. It was the first thing I ever rode with a centrifugal clutch, as I recall. I never had one of my own but always wanted one. I would be willing to give that product a chance...

It might make it quieter, it might reduce friction. I didn't say any of that wasn't possible or true. I am not even saying it will not increase fuel economy, but I am saying it won't increase it by 4-5MPG across several full tanks of the same driving style and conditions. I'm not even saying...

No disrespect to the OP intended here, but if there was a product that could increase fuel economy by more than a fraction of a % without any other unintended consequences (and certainly 4-5MPG!), the manufacturers would be using it. I have driven my BS BL for periods on the highway similar to...

I have been up (and down the "drop in" at) Hell's gate a handful of times, in a TRX, a 392 Wrangler, and MOST surprisingly, a bone stock latest generation Grand Cherokee (WL) and NOT the Trail Hawk model. It didn't even have electronic lockers like the rear of the BS BL, just the "virtual"...

@Whpony96 I was raised the same way and agree with that rule of life. The problem I have is there is no evidence he screwed up. That is pure speculation, as is the reason he has only posted twice.

Thanks!!!! Much appreciated.

@Frenchy906 Can you provide details/link to those mudflaps? They look nice! Letters on the dash in that blue look great! @wireman Flags on side vents look amazing, especially on white!

@Whpony96 You may be correct that he came here looking for an audience (or just help). I actually have no issue with that. I thought that's what this forum is for. IF he was trying to be the squeaky wheel and Ford actually helped him, would that be such a terrible thing? I also agree it...

From the owner's manual.... The OP wasn't required to have the transmission fluid changed. If he was required to and IF that is the cause of the failure, then it is Ford's fault for not recommending it be done at a lower mileage. There is still no evidence that the OP did anything wrong or...

What @sajohnson said!!! 100% on the highway miles not being severe. More steady state driving with less trans fluid temperature variations, fewer shifts, minimal acceleratioms, etc., etc.

The 2021 2.0L says it was designed to operate on 87 octane. I'm wondering if they had to throw some more spark or boost at it to make the HP numbers on the 25. If so, that may have been the reason they upped the fuel recommendation to 91.

Well, I said I would report back if I fixed anything, so here goes. By playing around with the provided spacers and some creative metal forming, I was able to get the HRG bash plate to fit nice against the front fascia. 1 problem down....2 to go.

My noise is definitely not coming from the rear. All strut bolts and sway bar bolts are tight....I don't think this is suspension related. If anything, it might have to do with the cold. This is the first I've driven it since the temps really dropped and at the same time, the lift was...

I have these Motegi MR147's in what I think is a 17x8" with a 38 offset. I believe the factory wheels are 17x7" with a 37.5 offset. My understanding is this will essentially split the extra 1" of width both inward and outward 1/2" in each direction (ignoring the 0.5mm difference in offset...

There is no evidence to indicate the OP's neglect caused the problem, and it's not unreasonable to expect a transmission to last more than 130,000 miles these days. But, Ford doesn't provide any guarantee or warranty that ensures they will be problem free at this mileage. Once we're beyond the...

Thanks @NMhunter. I do believe I read your post before starting my skid plate journey, but I haven't yet decided if I'm going to go further and add evap skids and sliders. It's on my "maybe" list. I agree that from a protection standpoint, the factory BL engine plate is probably sufficient...

I'm sorry. I misread your original post. I thought you said you had the B&O. My bad. Apologies.

To be fair to the OP, I don't think I've heard anything that indicates he didn't follow recommended service interval, BUT I agree with @rugedraw ^^ . 130,000 miles is definitely beyond warranty and Ford makes no promises beyond that - so it doesn't seem (to me) they owe him anything. I have...

Here's how I did mine. This may help. SUPER happy with how it turned out. https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/installing-aftermarket-speakers-and-sub-in-bronco-sport.2550/post-267811
