  1. Manual Transmission gringing / making clunking noise going from 1-2.

    Depends where in the powertrain as the clutch and master/slave cylinder are wear items and not part of powertrain.
  2. Manual Transmission gringing / making clunking noise going from 1-2.

    it is a 3/36 warranty. Our Bronco hit 29k miles on its 1 year anniversary November 5th and my wife's commute is 80 miles roundtrip.
  3. Manual Transmission gringing / making clunking noise going from 1-2.

    My wife's '24 is out of warranty in 6k miles which will be January/February. Hopefully you aren't that close. I'd look at lemon laws in your state as it appears you got a bad Bronco as my shifting/clutch has been a pleasant surprise.
  4. Manual Transmission gringing / making clunking noise going from 1-2.

    Thanks for the update. Ours is shifting perfectly, but when we change the fluid I will make sure to specify this one as the cost difference relative is probably marginal. Best of luck. In January our Bronco goes into for its last LOF at the dealer before our 3/36 expires via mileage. I am...
  5. Manual Transmission gringing / making clunking noise going from 1-2.

    i live alone and its my only car so I need a loaner and they seem to be unwilling to give me one for diagnosing. Bite the bullet and rent a car. If you shop around you can get some reasonable deals and only be out of pocket for $100 while diagnostics happen. We have a 2024 Big Bend 7MT non-Sas...
  6. Should I do my first oil change at 655 miles?

    I would bring it to your Ford dealer at least once for an oil change before the warranty expires. We are the exact opposite where my wife's Bronco will be out of mileage warranty at 14 months. We brought it in for an oil change and they found something minor to fix under warranty. We plan...
  7. OK... Who was this stuck on a rock??

    The driver clearly didn't do the Bronco Offrodeo as we learned to drive over objects like rocks with your tire and not the center of your chassis as the differential hangs low. My other big takeaway was don't avoid driving in the rut as your tire in the rut will keep you from sliding sideways...
  8. Why charge such painful fees to change plans?

    It is a super big and nice venue so there are a lot of costs should they not be able to fill your spot. I do recommend against the RT Lodge UNLESS you plan to use the benefits of the resort as the rooms aren't comfortable and breakfast isn't anything special
  9. What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

    You are right https://fordauthority.com/fmc/ford-motor-company-platforms/ford-t6-platform/ it is the Ranger not the Maverick. There is a lot of sloppiness by in searches and articles dropping the Sport designation. Ford does long-term damage to the Bronco brand by having the Sport.
  10. What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

    I can be that person as I will ask people about their Bronco or even how someone like their Maverick as I was curious since it is the same platform. The weirdest thing with the car the Bronco replaced 2012 Nissan XTerra Pro 4X. I saw person this week at the dog park who had the exact same...
  11. Did you Lease, Finance, or Pay Cash for Your Bronco?

    Obviously a low mileage driver as my wife's will be out of the factory warranty before 14 months old. If we could've made more money than the interest rate we would've considered it, but usually those low rates are in lieu of a rebate.
  12. Did you Lease, Finance, or Pay Cash for Your Bronco?

    Her previous vehicle was a 2012 XTerra bought new we'd be dumba**es not to have saved up money in 12 years to buy our '24. We had to plan for it and wait for CD expirations as we normally only keep $25k easily accessible aka money markets.
  13. 23 Bronco Manual Transmission Concerns

    Find a friend who has ton of manual experience and have them test drive it. I wouldn't trust the mechanic has any manual experience. With our '24 and my wife and me having never driven American manual the adjustment was seamless. Obviously it would be better if the friend has been driving...
  14. How many miles are on your gen6 Bronco?

    My wife did the dealer pickup and dropoff and it worked really well. The porter even could drive manual and followed the instructions about backing it into her spot at work. Note: Backing in is a corporate safety initiative SMH. If you work anywhere near a dealer this is super nice. We...
  15. Automatic E Brake on a manual Bronco

    I've heard mixed things about this. The instructors at the Offrodeo specifically talked about NOT putting the onus on your transmission to hold your vehicle. These were all automatics. My wife and I drive our manuals totally differently but it has worked for each of us: She leaves the...
  16. Automatic E Brake on a manual Bronco

    I like the idea, but question the execution. The off with separate rollback protection is more foolproof. How would you tow/winch it OR intentionally roll your vehicle like adjust it a few feet in the garage with that feature? I adjust vehicles in my garage front to back at least every couple...
  17. Are ticks something to worry about? (Tennessee)

    Cool, our dog parks are in Lake County in Chicagoland which is included in the high risk section. That being said our dogs have Seresto collars and this year we've only had a couple of ticks with EVERYDAY 66-acre wooded dog park visits.
  18. Are ticks something to worry about? (Tennessee)

    We went at the end of May which was fairly tick heavy time of year in Chicagoland and we experienced ZERO ticks in Marysville. This was between the RT Lodge which was pretty wooded and the Offrodeo. We didn't do any hiking otherwise, although I did go for a morning run from the resort to the...
  19. Why does my dealer refuse to accept my bad review?

    I hate star reviews. It should be: 1 star - avoid at all costs 2 stars - below average look for some better options 3 stars - acceptable/average 4 stars - chose if convenient vs. other options 5 stars - go out of your way for this option Instead: 1-3 stars - avoid at all costs 4 stars -...
  20. Off Roadeo With or Without My Wife

    I've told my wife driving in highway traffic if you flinch from the passenger seat it will attract my eye and distract me so don't flinch. I have to take my own medicine when she drives as I look over and she is 30+ mph above the speed limit and I need to be super gentle in my complaints.
