Replying to: steve_ (Apr 02, 2009 8:24 pm) this looked like an oversized taurus x... i was hoping the new explorer isn't going to be like this. i saw a photo in car and driver mag of the 2011 explorer and i liked that much better. Replies to this message: steve_ (Apr 30, 2009 4:47 pm)

#838 of 841 Tires by sacmtnr Aug 29, 2009 (12:56 pm)
I have a 2007 Mountaineer and it's about ready for new tires. It came with Michelin Cross Terrains and they have been a great tire. I have been told by Michelin that they are being phased out and replaced by the Michelin Latitude Tour. However, you cannot get the Tour in the 235-65-18 size. It is available in the 245-60-18 size which is extremely close in overall dimensions to the 235's and is in fact almost exactly the same overall dimensions as the standard size (18's are optional) 245-65-17's that come on Mountaineer's and Explorer's. Was just wondering if anyone else has opted for the 245-60-18's and if so how do they like them. I have heard very good things about the Latitude Tour but was just wondering if there was a specific reason it didn't come in the optional Explorer and Mountaineer sizes.

Replying to: fsmmcsi (Mar 14, 2008 7:56 pm) I am hoping you can help me as I also have a ford explorer 2006 that has the same problem (you described it well). I bought it used and it has 72k miles. Do you know what they did to fix yours? Steve Replies to this message: gldnbr2 (Nov 23, 2009 6:28 pm) dave1309 (Nov 24, 2009 10:05 am)

Replying to: skthome (Nov 23, 2009 4:32 pm) The Ford or Mercury dealerships have a "flash" fix for the transmission. It's some type of computer download that they install onto the computer on your vehicle. I think they have finally figured the correct download to help reduced the transmission issue. I know longer own the 06 Mountaineer, but the last "flash" that was done on it, seemed to make it work better. Good luck! Replies to this message: dave1309 (Nov 24, 2009 10:05 am)

Replying to: gldnbr2 (Nov 23, 2009 6:28 pm) Same for mine when I had a 2006. Dealer reflashed the codes twice and replaced the valve body on the transmission. Was still under warranty so no cost to me. Shop mechanic said he cleared the adaptive learning module and told me to drive it for 20 miles or so at different speeds etc. Had no further problems after that.
