Hereās the thing about dynamometer measurements.
Theyāre hotly contested on internet forums. If youāve done a mod, and produce dyno graphs, there will be
- several users wanting to know what parts you used
- several users wanting to know what model of dyno you used because whatever dyno YOU...
Distance to Empty is calculated based on recent driving. If youāre driving on āisland timeā with very little stop and go, conservative speeds, youāll get awesome DTE numbers. If youāre caning the car, itās gonna be less than impressive.
Itās really difficult to identify where a rattle / interior detected noise is coming from. I had a rattle in my ā17 Raptor for a while that really started to get my goat. At one point I got so fed up with it, I took EVERYTHING out of the truck that wasnāt there when I bought it, except for the...
The warranty on the Ford Performance vehicles is the same as the others in the Ford line up. I still have some time on my 2017 Raptorās ESP(warranty), and it will run on 87 octane and up. It will run better on 93, but it will run safely on 87.
Tire techs are like diapers. Often full if shĆt
Years ago, not at D/T, Iād gotten wheels & tires recently on my Mustang GT. I needed to get some kind of work done and told the shop: NO impact wrenches! I didnāt want the lugs stripped. Minutes later when they pull the car in I catch them...
Iām given to understand that the New-ish Raptors - maybe ā21 onward behave like the Mustang now, not the gear de-select/select buttons. I have a ā17 Rap and it behaves as you describe.
I think in ... ā19? Ford removed the console lights for the gear selector. The faux outrage this generated...
I fellow FRF got his Raptor fixed at Hill Country Customs out of New Braunfels and has spoken highly of their work. Be very selective on your body shop. A good body shop will return the vehicle to as before the collision condition.
Take the car to a stealership in Austin. They can use TX 130 to diagnose - speed limit is 85mph and itās not uncommon at all to see 90-95mph.
Thatās how you duplicate it.
Yeah, the Dark Horse is an odd duck. Itās a regular production Mustang, but can only be bought by the made infamous by Ford Performance āallocationā process. Basically, the Dark Horse is the red headed step child of Fordās performance lineup.
Iāve found it to be a little persnickety on the location of the phone, as others have described. got an iPhone 14 in a slim case, and itās gotta be just so... and then <chime> itās charging.
The 2 other users report using FORSCAN 2.3.60 successfully are 6 months and ~ 1 year older builds.
Is it possible my May ā24 build has a different IPC configuration that is causing the write to fail? sure, absolutely possible.
itās also possible that FORScan v2.3.61 is a contributor. Iāve...
Have you tried sport mode? :like:
Gen 2 Raptors had a ārebadgedā normal mode, that behaves eerily similar to the peasant F150 āecoā mode. it is lazy AF. sport and others except for āweatherā mode are much more like old school ā1 to 1ā throttle.
Itās not surprising for normal to be set to...
I started out with the obdlink MX - worked on my ā17 Raptor and when that failed I tried the ex.
Iāve sent a message to FORSCAN, maybe the .bin has some data thatās more insightful than the log files.
It absolutely makes sense, if you have any exposure to s/w development. Things get regressed all the time and release notes will make a vague entry like ācorrected issues adjusting ipc valuesā ( Iām using this current observation as an example. I have spent considerable time on regressed s/w...
