I had a chance to test "regular" Cruise Control this morning. I could not turn it on with the buttons available. I have to use "Adaptive Cruise Control. Then the Set+ & Set- buttons work. See attached.
3rd gear tops? Must be very slow going. I am usually in 4th or 5th if it will support 2,000 RPM minimum. My first tank was 14 mpg. I'm closer to 18 mpg now with one 40 mile trip in 6th.
According to the manual (page 208) that button simply switches Cruise Control On & Off (toggle). Setting the speed is done with SET+ & SET-.
CORRECTION:
The manual is incorrect. YOU are correct! There is no "Cruise Control On/Off button I can find on the steering wheel.
I finally got a chance to try Cruise Control today.
I used the switch on the steering wheel to turn it on and the panel indicator was displayed with my current speed of 45. However, when I took my foot off the accelerator, the car continued to slow down. I tapped the "SET+" button a few times...
Update:
I think that may have done the trick.
I did have to re-enable the two options; "Background App Refresh" & "Use Cellular Data" to get Pandora to play AND to get Apple CarPlay to connect to the iPhone.
Traffic was bad so I had to pay attention to driving. I pulled over and played with...
Great information!
I had to re-enable "Background App Refresh" to get Profile to open. Then I turned off that "Launch from car".
I'll bet that is it.
However, I noticed this at the bottom of the article.
"Keep in mind that with the Launch from car feature disabled, you'll have to launch...
3rd Update:
After several short trips, I am seeing the same thing - Pandora at the top of the battery usage list.
I have turned off all the iPhone options on the app itself. Apple CarPlay is not "supposedly" engaged with my iPhone other than establishing a connection. I am using the satellite...
I know the feeling! I just got mine back on 4/3/24. I'm 77 and feel like a kid. It's rough going thru the breakin period. I have only 300 miles on it.
I bought my first Mustang (factory order as well!) the year after High School - 1966. Maroon, 289 V8, 4-speed, FM Radio. Grand total $2,500.00.
Thanks for the response!
I realize the space in the engine compartment is "TIGHT", but how do you recommend removing the can for checking/emptying? I can't get my hand in there to unscrew the can itself. I am thinking I am going to need to disconnect the hoses and the top knob and remove the...
Update:
I used a free Windows utility called "MP3Tag" to add the album artwork. It can do it in batch mode so you don't have to "touch" each song on an album.
You have to have your priorities straight and patience.
This will most likely be my last car and I wanted it "My Way"! It took 121 days, but I got it and I'm very happy with EVERYTHING. 11% off MSRP would have been tempting - about $6K for me.
I have a little over 300 miles 90% around town driving 4th, 5th, & sometimes 6th gear if I can keep it above 2000 RPM.
I was getting 13-14 MPG until I took it on a 20 mile road trip mostly in 6th gear. Mileage shot up to 20 mpg. I'm back to 18 mpg now.
93 Octane Shell is what I'm burning.
I know I have received update 6.3.2 because I have the new gauges. However, there is no notice in FordPass about it. "Account", "Message Center" only has info on my points status and vehicle authorization on 4/4/24.
2nd Update:
To and from church this morning. iPhone battery still getting drained a bit. Pandora is still on the hour-by-hour list (8-9, & 11-12), but low down. Not on the list at all while at church.
"Ease of use". I went with the UPR for several reasons. However, the "Ease of use" issues ain't one of them. To empty it I'll have to take it apart (both hoses & the attachment knob). It cannot be unscrewed in place.
BTW: All the others may have the same issue. There's not a lot of room...
