I did an emergency stop (ahole in front of me had no brake lights on a fast stop), the ABS was not nearly as bad as some cars... a small kick back, but I just STOPPED! (brembos w/PS AS 4 tires).
Lol, most people have too much "stuff" in the garage to actually fit cars in there! I had to build additional storage to fit another car in the garage...
The manual that @AZ_Ryan posted says that you can disregard the icon if not accompanied by a message. The deactivated can happen for any number of reasons (no message), malfunction should have a corresponding message.
Awakened this thread today as I had seen this icon this morning... like the...
Thanks... makes more sense.
There is certainly a difference between sport and track mode... I love track mode, sport mode, not so much. It still seems to shift too early (too low RPM), especially in the higher gears/while cruising. The sport mode in my S550 holds all shift points about 1000 RPM...
Sport and track don't seem the same to me... after reading the description, it makes a little more sense (mud and sand), but track and sport seem very different to me.
I would think they would be good for a couple years. Not sure how much they degrade "per year" though. I would imagine someone that tracks alot could tell a difference.
It's not like your phone... there are not updates on a regular basis. Updates are rolled out at some mysterious schedule known only to Ford. I wouldn't worry about it, be happy your car doesn't need any updates!
Poutine? It's a Canadian thing 🤣 (not soup).
If you want actual weight of your car with any mods (or weight reduction) and stuff inside (including you) find a scale and weigh it. Search for "cat truck scales"... there is a small charge. I live in the middle of nowhere and there are 3 within 14...
Purchased my S197 with windows already tinted. Got pulled a couple times in the small town I live in. They said the tint was too dark, but never put a meter on it or issued a citation... I traded it in on a S550 with the same tint on it 12 years later!
There is a place near where I live that sells beauty bark. When the weather is really cold they put anti freeze on it so it doesn't freeze into a giant blob. Makes me freak out every winter as I think all my cars are leaking anti freeze.
