  2. Ford Service is telling me I need to sell my Bronco

    So my Bronco has been in the shop the past week. Took a drive from Texas to California and back. No problem whatsoever the whole trip.... no heavy revving or driving crazy or anything like that since I had my family in the car. Had done an oil change not too long ago either. Took it to Ford...
  3. Snorkel for 2023 Bronco Raptor?

    Does anyone have a snorkel for their Bronco Raptor? Weā€™ve had some flooding and we have a river on our property which at times, I have to cross. As of now my ā€˜23 BRAPTOR is sitting dead at the dealership with under 2,000 miles, 900 being off-road. I donā€™t even have plates for it. They think...

  6. Mystery Blue Rubber Cap

    So I was wiping down my engine of dust today and my rag must have knocked loose this little blue rubber cap. I heard it fall and was able to grab it. I have no clue where it came from, despite me searching the area for 10 min. See photos. The area circle in red is the area I was wiping down when...
  7. Sanity Check - Can You Hear This Weird Fluttering?

    Engine makes a super weird metal fluttering sound upon acceleration. Itā€™s always hard to capture on video. Dealers tell me there is no such sound. please watch this video - am I insane? Is there a weird flutter sound? Itā€™s more prevalent toward the end of the video

    Has anyone thought of or done a V8 swap? Definitely something I would consider looking into
  9. 2.3L engine sounds terrible.

    Please listen to this video. It sounds terrible. Checked all the fluids. Is this the way the Bronco 2.3L engines are supposed to sound? Only has about 2500 miles. With the hood closed sounds like the engine is ticking.
  10. Engine stopped dead deep on a trail (Fuel Pump Failure)

    My engine stopped running about 5-6 miles down a trail. I crawled down a hill, turned at the bottom and I felt it sputtering, so I shut my ac off to remove that load and it shut off. Tried restarting and it wonā€™t start. Turns over but never actually starts. I donā€™t really know what to do now. I...
  11. Interesting engine sounds after extended driving (~30 mins)

    Hey all. I'm a relatively new Bronco owner (purchased in early April), and so far it's been a pretty great experience. However, there is one aspect of the 2.3L engine that I wanted to post on here, in hopes that those with more Bronco/car knowledge may be able to provide some valuable insight...
  12. Engine rust? What is this? 2022 Bronco

    Hi all I have a 2022 Bronco Big Bend, only 300 miles in. I spent a lot of time installing various accessories and caught a glimpse of a part of the engine Iā€™m not familiar with. What is it? Why is it already rusted (only 300 miles driving, stored in a garage idle)? Should I be worried about...
  13. 2.3 at Elevation experience

    I live on the east coast, recently took a trip down to New Orleans and continue to love my Bronco. Despite early reservations about going with the 2.3, I absolutely am happy with it, smooth and responsive, and think it will be perfect for me after tune. Issue: Iā€™m going to be moving to...
  14. Ford Truck Fire, Nervous About Bronco...

    Hey all - long time reader first time poster here. So I recently moved from Austin to Providence RI. On our trip, our 2018 F-150 with 44,700 ish miles on it exploded in Pennsylvania. The truck is absolutely gone (added a photo) - no warning lights or odd behavior, but started dripping fire and...
  15. 2.3L 4cyl engine squeak at idle?

    Listed in general; move to where you see fit noticed this a few times thus far when the bronco is warming up in the driveway. A faint engine squeak, the kind of thing that sounds serpentine belt related and youā€™d expect to hear much louder on a much older vehicle. see video below. I put the...
  16. Engine fluttering sound upon acceleration | 2.3L

    Golly I hope I am over-reacting and being paranoid, but in my experience with vehicles, I rarely am... Bronco hit 1800 miles recently and suddenly its making an odd fluttering sound when accelerating - seems to be correlated to the RPM's. It borderline sounds like a leaf is stuck in a fan...
  17. Bronco Engine RPM Calculator (for specific tire sizes & axle ratios)

    So... I starting looking at tires I could put on my Bronco when it eventually (hopefully) gets here next year. I'm still debating between the Black Diamond and Badlands, which have different axle ratios. I was doing some math to figure out what the engine RPM would be at specific tire sizes &...
  18. [Poll] How stupid am I for clinging on to hope of a future 2.7 V6 / 7MT Bronco?

    Well guys, a year after being told "no" to this option combination, I'm still here daydreaming about it. I'd like to know if there is anyone else holding on to hope for this to happen in the future? @Ford Motor Company
  19. Why I switched to the 2.3L over the 2.7L...

    The 2.7 is an extremely powerful engine. The twin turbos really add an incredible amount of torque. Unfortunately, I think the 2.7 has too much torque for the 10R60 transmission the Bronco is getting. In fact, the 10R60 transmission only has a torque rating slightly above what the stock 2.7 puts...
  20. The Twin Red Badlands in Omaha, NE 4/15/21

    The twin Badlands made their way through Omaha last week. These are basically identical except for the color and MGV vs Leather, I believe. Kinda late posting this (and Iā€™m sure weā€™ve all seen their pictures a thousand times by now) but I figured Iā€™d share my photos and thoughts on them after...
