    Ford Performance Tune

    Yeah Zfg definitely the top of the list. I just never hear much about Zfg auto octane version. It’s a little dialed back and I think maybe somewhat in line with the FP tune. Not entirely sure though. But it doesn’t require full on premium gas at all times.

    Ford Performance Tune

    How do you guys think this FP tune would compare to zfg auto octane? The latter offering claims of 50+ hp and torque. The former obviously noting 30hp gain and up to 35lb torque. But they say peak 467lb torque. Curious why they say 35 lb torque gain but then say 467 peak. Math doesn’t add up or...

    Reverse Views on the Upgraded 10.1 Screen

    I agree you do get use to it but seriously, how does this pass and get approved lol it truly is comical at this point. I’ve adapted at this point seeing mock ups like this just blows my mind how ford managed to screw it up.

    Ford Performance Tune

    Yeah it’s frustrating. Valid point though! I thought I was crazy for considering it myself lol I guess in my head I was thinking if I’m gonna do it myself, why not just then go Zfg if I’m not going to get a warranty.

    Ford Performance Tune

    Thanks guys. Maybe I didn’t search well enough or I don’t know. I’ll be honest I’ve been meaning to reach out to a shop I take my car to when I don’t use the dealer but I’m just tired of discussing it with every shop and then just get the run around. I guess I was hoping for a dealer like...

    Ford Performance Tune

    Sad to say I think I’m about give up on getting this tune. I’ve contacted numerous dealers and the only one that does this sort of thing, wants $300! “the programming cost will be around 300.00. Tech said that you will need to have the device with the tunes when you bring the vehicle in.” I’m...

    Ford Performance Tune

    True but look at the dates. It still includes 2020 st from Oct 2018 to sept 2020. Again, it doesn’t make any sense because all 2020s have 4 bolts. Anyway, i guess it doesn’t matter. I’m still waiting for a damn dealer to confirm the ability to install before buying! Want to get in on this...

    Explorer top selling three row SUV

    Is that still an actual issue with them? It seems like the car shortage is over at this point. Largely at least. To the point no one should be paying over mrsp. yeah I am excited for thr cx9. Mazda needs to step up it’s Powertrain to be more powerful if they want to complete along with the...

    Ford Performance Tune

    I don’t want to derail this thread but this is the document from ford. It reads as ALL explorers, 2020-2022 are affected. Unclear why it ever read like this. But that would mean all explorers would get this updated firmware.

    They may not have 3 rows but it’s not like there are two and three row versions of the explorer. Just one. But either way still great for the explorer! Hope it continues.

    https://fordauthority.com/2022/11/ford-explorer-sales-numbers-figures-results-third-quarter-2022-q3/ Glad to see the platform doing well. Definitely off to a rocky start a couple years ago. I am a bit surprised though. When all the car sites recommend the Hyundai Kia duo, I expected more...

    Ford Performance Tune

    yeah definitely keep us updated! Very well could just be FP team being very conservative and playing it very safe by recommending only premium Yeah someone else mentioned it somewhere. It’s the bolt recall. I will say, you get use to it very quickly. At least I did. You don’t need to hit the...

    Forscan Auto Start/Stop turn off?

    My 22 has 11k miles. For the last thousand miles or so, my ASS hasn’t operated at all. Maybe once or twice in there. I click over to the widget and I believe it usually says something like disabled vehicle charging. I’ve been cautiously waiting to have some electrical issues if the battery goes...

    Lol I know but this is what I was going off of. Ignore my rant about the warranty in the second picture. I understand now. But read what the representative said about the octane.

    Ford Performance Tune

    Good to hear! It’s interesting about the 87 octane part. The FP team swore I should only run premium. Which very well may be true. But I’m guess the tune and computer still has the ability to dial things back. Keep us updated once you run through some premium.

    That’s me nearly every day. Then I find it’s yet another toy rattling around somewhere that my kids left lol

    Ford Performance Tune

    Yeah for sure. What happens after that is debatable and who knows. I would think though, my fight to get something covered would be less of an issue with a FP tune vs a true aftermarket tune. I can’t say for sure though and it’s still a gamble.
