  1. FordPass: Remote Features Disabled to Preserve Battery

    The normal default is 80% If you want to charge the battery above this use an external charger, however it will soon drop back to 80%. Routinely charging to 100% will shorten the life of the battery without the BMS
  2. My take on the initial build quality.

    I prefer sources that can verify stuff with data. The reason Ford stopped using plastic on the Coyote is not noise of course.
  3. My take on the initial build quality.

    Not according to other sources than you. 2db reduction in noise apparently is common. Ford dropped them because of sealing and durability issues but plenty of others use them without those issues. Ford still use plastic on many engines where there have not been such issues.
  4. Air intake suggestions / recommendations?

    Look at the intake temperatures as you drive along, rarely more than 1C above ambient. Don't change it for performance as there will be no gain
  5. My take on the initial build quality.

    $45,000 per $1 saving is pretty good value. Of course car makers look for savings. Or they could just charge you more of course?
  6. My take on the initial build quality.

    Materials have developed considerably since the days 'everything had to to be metal'. Plastic oil pans also reduce noise. Plastic intakes have better thermal management as well as reduced costs.
  7. Dark Horse Brake Abuse and Testing

    Autocar in the UK have recorded 42.3m from 70mph to 0mph for the DH on their test track Not many cars better than that other than true exotica such as Ferrari 488 and Porsche 918 Spyder (37.8m best recorded to date)
  8. FordPass: Remote Features Disabled to Preserve Battery

    Checking after you have just shut down the car is little use. It will always show 12.7 ish volts at that point. It is what it is showing after a few days that matters and what the BMS will use as information to determine whether to shut down the comms to save power. The battery lives between...
  9. FordPass: Remote Features Disabled to Preserve Battery

    He is talking about disconnecting the battery monitoring but really not a great way to solve any problems
  10. Front inner wheel well issues

    It gets there with or without wheel arch 'holes' - My S550 collected gravel there too. After 6 years it had done no harm.
  11. I herd u liek luggage racks

    Can spell 'pedantic' but not 'guys' (used more letters to spell it incorrectly!) Languages have spelling and grammar for a reason, so that you can be understood!

    100% There will be repercussions at some point.
  16. Annoying noise from rear side

    Sounds like they have!
  17. Annoying noise from rear side

    Would have been the first place to look before stripping the car to bits! Any aftermarket parts fitted are always the first port of call
  18. Gas prices [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Reporting of gas prices and actual gas prices are of course not the same thing. Alternative media worry much less about facts and verification. Gas prices are what you see with your eyes when you pay and they are up significantly in the US, more so that the UK for some reason.
