Since all 2.0 Badlands only have direct injection No port, anyone have to decarbon the head yet? At what mileage ?

Do the tunes void your factory warranty ??

I agree 100% HUSBANDOFBS It is amazing how fast they start... It was 12 degrees out here yesterday morning and I swear it popped off in less than 2 seconds. Only starting @ TDC really helps. Oh and for me it's the potholes and ten speedbumps I go over every day at work. Nice and easy... My...

Could it possibly be another premature failure based on that well loved Start/Stop technology that I'm sure in 60000 miles has to have saved any owner a grand total of a tank or two of fuel. Their is no way to prove it, but I wonder if Albegro left his BS in the default on for most of that 60k...

Sojouner... Thank you !! I like the way you think, and for me as well (it's strictly a matter of principle.)

My only concern is... How all the computer systems on my fully loaded Badlands will react to a change in the number of tire rotation when an emergency stop is implemented utilizing the semi autonomous emergency stopping system. Larger tire height would equal less tire rotations per a given...

How much will the 245 offset the speedo ??
