No but mine has gone off occasionally when I’m in Sport mode and then comes back on without me changing anything.

Looks like you have to edit the Audio Control Module configuration to turn it off. This guy did it on a F-150.

they couldn’t figure it out.. wtf.. they have some new system, ids or something.. they say the vehicle and software is so new that they haven’t learned how to do anything like that yet.. there’s nothing out there specific for this vehicle yet.. it’s getting annoying.. no intake, no downpipe, tuners are few and far between

apparently it’s easy through ford ids tool.. under ENE or something.. my dealer couldn’t figure it out.. i now have straight pipes from the cat back so i no longer hear the artificial noise anyway.

So technically once you disable the engine sound, adding a subwoofer is as simple as tying into that line going to the baby one in back... right?

I disabled it by installing a Borla S-type exhaust system. Haven't heard it since.
