Ford's electronic sound enhancement system ("ESE") plays specific frequencies through the speakers to make the engine and exhaust sound more "spectacular" - unfortunately at the expense of the music that is played. That system can be disabled with Forscan. Don't make the mistake to read all...

First one remembers the status of the lane keep assistant. Second line sets it to one press activation and changes speed warning chime default to off. Third line turned out to be unnecessary, so I just edited the original post. It was reset with an Softwareupdate while lane keep and speed...

Have a look at Figures 4 and 6:

Custom profiles can be scrolled through with the dedicated buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. Or do you mean something different?

This is called "front staging" and a characteristic most Hifi- connoisseurs absolutely prefer because only that will provide properly the feeling of sitting in front of the band playing. Rears typically only used at lower volume as "rear fill". But in the end, it's just a matter of taste off...

High voltage is shown only while the battery is being charged (-> engine running). Once a specific level is reached, that voltage drops for a while.

I used the PAC Audio AmpPRO AP4-FD31. Seems to be similar to the Mav TV, only half the price. True plug & play (driver side in trunk) with necessary harness included. This provides clean 6 channel cinch preouts + remote out and speaker cables for front woofers, mids, center, rears and main sub...

Those pressue/temp relations I firstly thought about, too. But then I remembered a top top from a friend of mine how to check if you have a puncture without a pressure gauge: Feel by hand if the sidewall of a tire is hotter than the other(s). Rubber deforms more when pressure drops, so the...

A 3 Minute video instead of 7 words: "Press engine start and start/stop at once" :giggle:

Yes, I read some other anti virus/malware software falsely marked it that. You can add an exception and/or delete that software all together - Windows defender has developed so much that it should be all a typical user needs ;)

Laptoo Bluetooth, correct. Never had random disconnects. When did your Bluetooth devices like earphones, mouse or whatever randomly disconnect from your laptop or phone? I used a cable on my Gen6 before and was rather worried about the cable unplugging because of a wrong movement. For some...

1) With the phone version of Forscan, you cannot change parameters, only check and delete error codes for example 2) I personally use a Vgate OBDII Bluetooth, vLinker FD+ and couldn't be happier: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZDNJ1BJ It can stay in the OBD2 socket permanently and phone apps be...

PCM 7E0-162-04: "x2xx" "xxxx" "xx--" This worked on my German GT, where it's turned off by default.

Don't actually understand the question - do you mean how they do it withOUT subwoofer? As ESE is not using only the frequencies served by the separate sub, it works on non sub systems as well, probably just not going as deep.

Can confirm, my car is a European one. First code changes Lane Keep System Ignition On strategy. In this case, strategy is "keep last setting".

Fortunately, TÜV (for mandatory biennial technical inspections in Germany for those wondering) don't test drive the cars on the streets. Although I guess some inspectors whish they had to :)

For the phone to be recognized as a file storage device, on Android you can specifically chose that you want the phone to appear as such. Pull down from top and there should be a button to tap. iPhone I don't know.

Here's one of THE most useful changes I've made so far. In some countries it's mandatory to have above mentioned settings to switch back to "On" after each new start of the engine. So with the following changes that annoyance is history! IPMA 706-02-01: "xxxx" "xxxx" "x1--" 706-05-01: "x4x0"...

What happens if autofold is turned of? Will the lights also go on? That's what I wish happened, same as on Gen6.

You can just push engine start and auto start-stop buttons at once as long as you have two fingers available. Ford was so nice to not having to wait until the engine actually started or the whole digital systems have booted and to putting both buttons next to each other.
