Clunking noise in rear end

So, for the past two weeks, I’ve had this mild, but incredibly annoying clunking sound coming from the rear.

I thought maybe it was my tire inflator rattling, I’ve got a Milwaukee inflator that I keep tucked up close to the rear seat back, so I removed that. Noise persisted. So I ended up taking the few things in the vehicle out that I thought could be possible culprits. Noise was still there.

Last night, I took my vehicle down to get a quick wash, and when I came home, I grabbed a…

puttling climate conroles onto the screen

I thought I saw a post on being able to add the climate controls to the screen, but I can’t remeber for sure if it was on here I saw it or not.

Sasquatch Tire – fit in trunk?

Anyone tried to put a full size Sasquatch tire in the spare tire compartment yet? I know it doesn’t fit with the carpet in there. But folks are able to put in a KO2 in a 245 by removing the carpet, so hoping the Sasquatch tire will fit in there as well. It’s a 235/65/17, but apparently a large 235.

Thanks!

Buzzing from rear of car after new RDU installed – dealer doesn’t know why

A month ago I had a brand new RDU installed after I was having a grinding when turning sharp. After that repair, I started hearing a loud buzzing noise from the rear of my car anytime I’m above 35mph. It’s a constant noise regardless of acceleration, turning, etc. I took it back and they claimed it was a bent heat shield, but it still made the noise. Took it back a second time and they continue to claim it’s not an RDU issue even though that’s when I started hearing the noise. I found on…

TCU Software Updates and GWM Udates

Well, I was having issues with my Ford App remote start, wouldn’t start due to “conserve battery life” and getting messages that this function was not available due to “battery saver mode”. The vehicle SOC was 77% so no idea WT heck was going on. Took it to the dealer and they ran it through their magic back room and stated that the these issues needed to be updated as per their scans info from the SSM, TSB and other jargon that was over my head, BTW, death by acronyms!
Anyway, I don’t…

Ford Repair and Maintenance Costs Lower?

This surprises me given the repair costs I’ve seen on the forums since I joined in August.
