At Cody,
I installed my Aero Skin 2 and love the looks but........
Yes the hood dances a little but jumps when hitting a head wind. On a normal day without wind I was getting over 30mpg. Then I added the deflector and of coarse mother nature decided to have a windy week. My eco dropped to 25mpg...
What I did was cut the tip off the Nipple on that gromet. Its at the 5 o'clock position. Then once I ran my wires I put some RTV to seal it. That nipple is a pass through.

"Yes, smartphones typically report location, but a) that can be disabled, b) that is not in the same league as speed; G-forces from braking, accelerating, and steering, terrain, etc, etc., and c) 2 wrongs don't make a right."
As a Engineering Tech this data is not to spy...
Do you know how to change that value? I have Forscan and am looking on how to change that value and the time out value for the fan run time on the headlights.
Its not just a "knob" that is the problem that knob is attached to a module under that facia. That module has computer parts in it. So yes computers/modules fail sometimes and Ford dont make those they buy them. So this computer chip shortage is a problem along with the crisis in Ukraine...
The nine speed was reduced to 8 due to the gear ratio's between each other and were close plus the economy was not that much of an improvement that part is true. Which gear they eliminated not sure. There were also durability issues with 9 speeds.
My source told me, and I should of corrected...
Actually we removed some components that created that extra gear. The problem was that the original trans was not durable and kept breaking. Removing the components to make it a 8sp made the unit more durable.
Yes to the Octane level. The temps of the day were with in 6 degrees of each other. Due to my driving i can do 1000 per week. Now that im back on regular gas and well after my testing yesterday’s temp was really high it was at 47 degrees and on the way home i got over 31.3 miles to a gallon...
In regards to the fuel economy heres my results using Mobile fuel at the same gas station.
I went 3 tanks on 86 Octane and fuel economy calculated at the pump not lieometer was 30.2. Then switched to 92 Octane for three expensive tanks of fuel and got 29.7. Unknown of level of Ethanol. I drive...
They are here they just don't speak up to keep their jobs.
It would take a book to write on the processes and how things get done at the plant. I can say it was started, built, and they built it far as they can then push/drive it to an area to get finished due to lack of parts.
Lets say for...
Dont get Ford mixed up with STEALERSHIPS.
Ford dont hire them the dealers do. Dealers buy their cars from Ford and Ford pays on warranty. Ford dont check the quality. As an old dog tech that retired from the dealer I can tell you that the quality of mechanics out there have dropped...
What is stupid is these same rims were that price in January 2021 and now are well over that. The latest dealer i looked at was 338.00. The Tire Rack sell them for 108.00 I want them for winter driving cause Michigan drops straight salt on the roads...
Coming from a dealer they make money BIG MONEY. They get a kick back on financing. Lets say they get you approved for 2% then what they will do is add on 1+% look at the monthly payment and say is this in your budget. One reason they ask what you can monthly afford is their goal to jack up the...
From what I read the other day your Fordpass app will still work in starting your Bronco. Ford pays for that service when the WIFI trial runs out. You wont be able to surf with your Bronco and load videos and such but at least your app will start unlock and lock the Bronco.
