Magnaride Question

[bee bop]

Ok I need some guidance here. How do you set the Magnaride settings. When I go into My Mustang to setup a custom drive mode, I can change the exhaust and Steering mode, but I do not see where to change the suspension settings.

The Issue is when I go to magnaride in the custom mode I do not see any other options except for the default for what ever base mode I choose. For example if I set the base mode to normal the only option I see is normal or Sport if the base mode is sport.

Have asked before! Sport type active dampers can be set only in sport mode. Sucks ay.
In other words - set to sport mode to get the active dampers. Change the steering to normal or comfort as necessary:

Well, that blows and is not what they show in the how-to videos.

Hope they fix it with a software update!

To answer your question, magneride is solely locked to whatever mode you put it in. So, really, the modes should just say (at least for the magneride equipped ones), how do you want the suspension. After that, you can tune the steering, exhaust, and traction control. The only thing I’ve honestly noticed is that track and slippery mode adjust the throttle response. All others seem to be 1:1. Someone feel free to jump in and correct me (not saying I’m 100% accurate).

That's not what the owner's manual would appear to indicate:

If the base drive mode is normal - active dampers can’t be chosen.
if base mode is sport only then it can be chosen. HIMS

Looks like they forgot to document that in the owner's manual.

Have you considered looking at the Ford Support How To videos?

It literally took 5 seconds to find, but be aware of proper spelling.

And watch the video on this page:

Hows the view from way up on your high horse? If you're going to be patronizing, you shouldn't be looking at questions on a forum....

The world is full of DBs ... gotta learn to ignore them.

HA!

Marketing neutered the 'mymode' in GT/Mach1 lest the GT350 get their panties in a bunch. They may have broken 'mymode' in the 2020 G350 as well, I don't remember.
Ford is not interested in letting you actually choose.

Marketing!!! Twisted ay.. oh well! I don’t mind getting the sport mode on and changing the other settings as needed.

true on the throttle response in track and slippery. Power delivery is very linear in track mode for sure. Not good for the backroads.
I’m playing around with sport mode mostly to get the right feel on the canyons. I still need better tires. P0’s suck as
