    Things you like or were surprised to find on your Bronco Sport

    I already knew it was there, but I used the bottle opener for the first time over the weekend. I used it to open some Topo Chico bottles for my stepson and his wife from the cooler we took to the MotoGP race. They were surprised and happy; and I was surprised how easy/well it worked. I was...

    12 volt battery charge state detection recall coming out.

    If I had experienced an issue, it would already be hooked up. I have been expecting to have one, it just hasn’t happened at all.

    12 volt battery charge state detection recall coming out.

    Not sure what the difference is, but my BS has been sitting for weeks at a time since I was laid off in December. I have gone weeks without leaving the house and I keep expecting to have an issue and need to jump start it. I have purchased a tender but I have not used it yet. If I had needed...

    Go anywhere fun this week?

    It travels fine, just the front is a little bouncy. I think that the second set of springs they sent overpower the dampers a little. It is great over larger bumps but it can just oscillate a little and it does annoy me a bit. I need to swap the other springs in and test that lower rate, but...

    Spent the weekend in Austin. First real road trip in the BS.

    Does the BS fuel door lock or not? Anyone else concerned about this?

    The fuel door is just plastic. Having a lock that is stronger than the door seems to me like putting an interior door on the front of your house and installing a dead bolt.

    What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    I gave it a spring cleaning, just before I drive to TX to see my stepson and his wife. We are going to the MotoGP race in Austin this coming weekend. I also finally got around to “finishing” my grille letter project. See the details here.

    Did anyone else see this

    No way that toy could stand up to actually being played with. It’s more of an ornament.

    Trying to determine the best course of action… replacing speakers

    I used coaxial speakers in all 4 doors and left the stock tweeters in place. I really like the sound stage created by the added tweeters. I have not needed to reduce the high frequency response or anything to balance things out. The only thing that was scary for me was that the speakers...

    Internal coolant leak

    Most of the coolant leaks have been external. Some of those have not had any coolant visible because the leak was so slow that it would evaporate before it dripped down. All this to basically say that a water pump is probably in your future and you should document when you are adding coolant...

    Photo Dump - Atlas Blue vs. Velocity Blue

    I loved the blue of my 2003 MINI Cooper S

    What did you Name your Bronco Sport?

    No issues, the title isn’t all that easy to find. I just happen to have been here for 2 years and remember this sort of thing.

    Loose Steering

    You need to send a PM (private message) to the Ford rep, not post your VIN here. You should edit that post and delete that information to maintain your privacy/security.

    RC Strut and spring install

    Not sure why you needed to make a tool for the rear shock. I don’t remember that being especially difficult to remove/replace when I did the Flatout kit.

    What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    I don’t know about the other two, but I was just being silly (as I figured they were).

    What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    When the turbo fails on my BS, I plan to replace it with a Pedal Max. :crazy:

    What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    If only your BS had a 1.9L engine, it would only be 0.1L short of a BL model instead of 0.5L.
