  1. I love the way the 2025 2.3Ecoboost sounds in this Bronco!!

    No there's no rumble in the exhaust. It's 100% piped in noise. Aftermarket tuners for years have been trying to improve the sound of turbo 4-cylinder engines as they inherently don't sound good and certainly don't have rumble unless it's say a Subaru flat 4 with unequal length headers.
  2. UPDATE: Hardtops need to be redesigned! Cracking and bubbling on my second hardtop replacement

    Ford has known for years that the MIC tops are no good, so clearly the profit margins for the Bronco are high enough that Ford has deemed that there's enough profit per vehicle to continually replace tops under warranty and wait out the warranty period. I imagine they will just keep selling the...
  3. 2025 2.3L Ford Performance Tune

    Does the software still require a laptop using older versions of Windows? I don't think dealers in Canada actually install the tunes like they do in the US.
  4. 700 miles - CEL twice

    2025 2.3L have an issue with cold start misfire CEL. I got the code in December but it cleared itself and according to the dealer it’s a known software issue that they expect to have a fix in Q2 2026. Not clear if it’s a similar issue with 2.7L or a completely different issue.
  5. I love the way the 2025 2.3Ecoboost sounds in this Bronco!!

    It’s just piped in noise through the speakers. It sounds a little artificial to me but not terrible compared to Honda or VW’s I’ve owned recently. I can comment if it’s an improvement over 2024 and older years with the older 2.3L engine.
  6. Gear selector not illuminated

    IMO it's a habitual thing for people that have been driving for decades. On column mounted shifters your mind is trained to look above the steering column to see the selection so screen indication works well. That's why it never bothered me much on my Tesla. When the shifter is console...
  7. Trail sight / fender guides removed today

    My passenger seat serves no purpose for me these days living on my own. I'm thinking of getting rid of it.
  8. First Look at 2026 Bronco Base Sasquatch & Badlands at Detroit Auto Show

    Definitely jealous of the grab handles. I've figured out how to get in and out of my Bronco relatively easy but passengers struggle at times.
  9. Best Cold Air Intake for 2.3

    I choose not to believe. Intake on a turbo engine is largely a cosmetic and noise modification.
  10. Gear selector not illuminated

    The illuminated shift knob used to be standard on BMW M cars but around the time the 2016 M2 came out it became an accessory. Not the end of the world that the Bronco doesn’t have it but considering how much Ford is charging for these vehicles it’s kind of a petty omission. The printed...
  11. Third MIC hardtop in 3 years FAILS

    I don't think body flex is the issue as the cracks can be seen on new Broncos. I saw last week in the FB community a post showing hard top cracks on a new Bronco with 250 miles. I believe it's a manufacturing issue.
  12. Farewell, Miss my Bronco

    With 93 octane I get between 17.5 - 18.5 with my 2 Door badlands depending on how much time I spend on freeways vs short driving.
  13. Farewell, Miss my Bronco

    When people here discuss 22 - 23 mpg they are talking about strictly highway driving right? I drive mostly city and don't get anywhere near that with the 2.3L.
  14. Does anyone have an auto stop eliminator on their Bronco?

    This has been by far the best mod I have made to my Bronco. Ten minute install and one of the all-time worst features ever added to automobiles is able to be permanently disabled.
  15. New Bronco variant or special edition to debut at 2026 Detroit Auto Show (Jan 14-25) .... any guesses what Ford has up their sleeve?

    People here are already frustrated with the price increases year over year and the V8 would come with a high sticker price and likely cannibalize Raptor sales. I'm sure if they even contemplated it, once they ran the numbers it simply didn't justify the money and resources required to add the...
  16. Notable Humming/Vibration at Specific Speeds in 4A

    My 2025 does this and I'm pretty sure it's normal.
  17. New Bronco variant or special edition to debut at 2026 Detroit Auto Show (Jan 14-25) .... any guesses what Ford has up their sleeve?

    A hybrid version would be the best. One of the largest downsides of this vehicle is the horrendous fuel mileage with either engine option.
  18. 2025 2.3L Random Misfire CEL (Ford working on Software fix)

    The new 2.3L engine was in the Mustang and Explorer a year before the Bronco so it sounds like it's a programming issue with Broncos and Rangers and not hardware related.
  19. Ford Quality Control Problem

    It takes a leap of faith to shell out $$$ for a Ford. Not even 6 months in I have had a recall performed and now waiting for a software fix for the 2.3L misfire issue. I went over 5 years of recent BMW ownership and never had a single visit to the dealership outside of the BMW free services. My...
  20. 2025 2.3L Random Misfire CEL (Ford working on Software fix)

    Below is the actual bulletin from Ford. Looks like Q2 before an update is available.
