    New wheel and tire problem

    I went to methods and 37s recently and had the same issue. I took them to discount tire and did a lifetime balance. They pulled them all, had to rotate the tire on the rim for one and add a ton of weight. The guy at the counter said methods are great off-road but they hate when people bring...

    Gen 2 replace uca ball joints ???

    Anyone replace these? I can't find a Motorcraft/Ford part number...just the Duralast GFA500359. I'll buy heim joint uppers eventually, but wasn't planning on spending $2k so soon. Can it be pressed out without removing the control arm? Was hoping not to have to pull the shock also.

    Thoughts on AMP Power Steps for Gen 2?

    I like the fixed running boards because they also prevent people from bashing your doors

    Which fuse to use with "add a fuse"?

    I just ran through all the fuses on my 2019 and found the following fuses to be accessory (runs only when vehicle is turned on): 19-20: Restraint Control Module (Micro3-7.5A) 21-22: Passenger Occupant Detection (Micro3-5A) 23: Power Rear Glass, Inverter, Driver Window, Moonroof (Micro2-10A)...

    PMCS: Panoramic Sunroof

    Update...The service advisor emailed me back letting me know he was incorrect and the instructions on how to clean the sunroof are only detailed in a service bulletin. He said that regardless, if debris is found, the warranty would not cover it. I brought it in today and they told me that the...

    PMCS: Panoramic Sunroof

    Resurrecting this thread instead of starting a new one…I took my truck in Today due to leaky sunroof. I checked the hoses in front and everything was clear but couldn’t seem to figure out how to check the rear. The hoses are all definitely connected. I scheduled an appointment a week out and...

    Motortrend 2023 Raptor R Review

    I wonder how they setup the truck for the 0-60. The throttle house TRX and Raptor race had the R lose pretty bad on and off road. Not the best measure of the truck, but it's all anyone talks about...I figured it wasn't an apples to apples comparing considering the TRX had 35" tires.

    Brake fluid flush

    When was the last time you changed fluid? I haven't seen super blue in at least a decade. The point was to swap back and forth between gold and blue after every track day so you could tell when to quit bleeding. After a quick google it looks like DOT made it illegal in the US in 2013; all...

    Replacing Brake Pads, No Rotor

    I had been used to the BMW maintenance of changing pads every 25k and then both pads and rotors at 50k miles. I went ahead and swapped pads and did a fluid flush at 25k miles and was surprised by how much pad was left...seemed kinda pointless. It definitely needed a fluid flush though. Unless...

    Adding USB and 12v Cig outlet

    Thanks for the feedback. You think that it's also bad for signal wires running to relays or DC-DC chargers? I usually see people do inline taps off of ignition-on wires so I thought fuse taps wouldn't be an issue. I'd rather not run a wire from the alternator...not even sure how that would...

    Adding USB and 12v Cig outlet

    I'm planning on doing this today or tomorrow also. You figure it out? I'm using 36 for an ignition signal for my dual battery so that is out. Are 28-30 under ignition only?

    Anyone Do 1 Step Colder Plugs?

    On my Gen 2 I went with the Ford Performance 1-step colder. Just bought NGK for my second change though…will see how it goes. MPT has always had the cheapest prices when I’ve checked and they’re on sale now. https://www.morepowertuning.com/Spark-Plugs_c_1037181.html

    GEN 2 Transmission in gear - won't move

    I’ve had this happen 4 times over the past three years. Usually on warm days. Turning it off, opening the door, and waiting will the computer shuts off before turning it on again fixes it. Very weird.

    Titanium Turbo shields

    The blankets kind of seem like a waste to me unless you’re all out of the other mods like upgraded turbos, adapter plates, Downpipes, and exhaust. I had blankets on my X5M which reduced the heat in the engine bay and provided the benefit of keeping the heat in the turbo for early performance...

    Cruise control

    I'm pretty sure you can go in the settings menu on the dash (not the navi screen) and turn ACC off which will allow you to use normal cruise control. When I go to the beach the salt covers the sensor and prevents use, but I was able to turn it off through the dash menu and use normal cruise...

    Help! Water leak problem

    I had a crack in my passenger cab vent which was leaking. They did the air conditioner TSB at the same time.

    GEN 2 Tire Question - Replacing 2 tires not 4

    I think most newer AWD systems have more than just a viscous center differential. BMWs have had wet clutch, electronically controlled transfer cases since 2003. The difference in tire diameter causes the computer to actuate the clutch repeatedly and cause them to wear/fail prematurely. In the...

    GEN 2 Tire Question - Replacing 2 tires not 4

    This should depend on the tolerance of the transfer case and any "eLSD" or advanced stability control. I had a friend with a BMW X3 who bought only 2 new tires and his transfer case blew. BMWs specify a diameter difference of 1% between all four tires to meet their Xdrive requirements. I...

    Foutz Gen2 Coilover conversion

    I was looking for Gen3 rear sprint g upgrades for added weight and came across a Gen2 coilover conversion from Foutz. Haven’t seen anything about this elsewhere. Seems to be cheaper and easier than the other 5 link kit available. Anyone seen this in person...
