Sync update for my 2023 Badlands with Nav – doesn’t work for my 2022 Bigbend no Nav
I just did the USB Update for the 2023 Badlands w/Nav
I think I’ve seen this before here but
I can not use the update for my 2023 Badlands w/Nav for my 2022 Bigbend no NAV
So looks like I need to do an update specifically for the Bigbend no NAV
It does appear I need to update the 2022 Bigbend from what I see on the screen
Currently I see this on my 2022 Bigbend

HRG 1.5 inch Lift Installed – 2023 Bronco Sport Badlands
Lift installed today and so far, so good. Still have the stock Falken Wildpeaks, but someday I’ll probably go bigger.
OB/BL black roof: Who hates ‘em?
Anyone opt for a lower trim because of that? Have your OB/BL roof wrapped in body color? Just wish Ford made it an option for all trims?
The only thing that bugs me about the Outer Banks and Badlands trims is that we’re forced into the black roof. I think it’s a misstep on Ford’s part, particularly in the desert Southwest. More than just making it harder to keep things cool in our (ever longer) summers, it’s a dirt magnet.

Ford Bronco 1.5 liter engine and transmission leak.
Hello. I have a 2023 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks with the 1.5 liter. It only has 17,000 miles. I asked my husband to change my oil. He advised he found that the oil pain bolts were wet with oil. He inspected more and found that the oil leak was coming from the timing chain cover gasket. Or from the rtv gasket maker they used. He also found that the transfer case was leaking from where the cv axle inner joint connects to the transmission. Also, the transmission oil cooler may have a leak as…

2023 Badlands air recycle
While driving down the road with the air set to recycle, I have found that the recycle button light goes off and the outside air is filling car again. Has anyone experienced this issue.
Engine Mounts Replacement
I ordered all three engine mounts and found the lower torque arm was bad. I ended up replacing all three anyway.
I have 140,000 miles on the OB. I have been experiencing torque converter shudder. This could have contributed to the torque arm failure.

I have been experiencing a “clunk” when going over bumps and a “rattle” when the vehicle restarts using auto start-stop.

Whats your BS’s name and why
So I always thought it was kind of lame to name your vehicle. My motorcycles and cars were always black and plain, but it changed when I saw my outer banks. I went to the ford dealership in victorville to get one and as soon as I saw it I knew it was mine. Named her saphira after the dragon lol.

Back up camera glare
Maybe a dumb question but what’s a good way to combat backup camera glare? Works perfect during daylight hours. But at night, if it’s rainy, or humid or whatever. The license plate light gives off a glare and makes the camera unusable. Would a little rain X help?
Another Perimeter Plus Alarm Installation
With the increase in catalytic converter theft and the ease with which it can be accomplished on a Badlands (higher ground clearance; no need to jack), I thought it prudent to install the Perimeter Plus system offered by Ford. It includes a shock sensor that fires off with a significant impact such as might be imparted to the vehicle while forcibly removing a component. The instructions supplied by others on this site were helpful, mainly because Ford does not supply them with the kit. Below…
