General comments here and elsewhere suggest it's really more about dealer discretion in a warranty situation. Some dealers will balk at things as small as non-oem tire sizes, and would definitely have an issue with things like a lift kit, as that causes stress on suspension components. Others...

Does it work to change settings, or only the scanning features?

Has a similar experience on a trip to Italy with my GF. We booked a rental car to drive from Florence to Tuscany, and once we arrived, the rental place was closed. Hilarity ensued as we had to figure out their tram system while hauling around luggage, and get to a different rental place. We'd...

I've had my Mav for about 4 months, still haven't gotten fully used to how busy it is, well put. The 1-2 shift is especially bothersome, like pulling out of my driveway, or mid-turn from a stoplight. I recently added sport mode, I haven't tested much, but I expect that will be better, since it...

For your generational theorizing, I'm an older Millennial, and I taught my Boomer mom how to drive manual vehicles. She started driving around 1974, I hit the roads in 1998-ish. I'd place the divide on interest in manual transmissions more on the hobby/interest/mechanically inclined differences...

I'm with you on this, I had a 91 ranger that was very similarly sized to the maverick. It was a V6 with a stick, and that thing was a blast to drive. The Maverick has over 100 more horsepower, and it's lighter. Would be a lot of fun. You might check out some of the threads on here about adding...

Not in Forscan. There are other threads on this, it requires the truck to read button presses after starting it. There are users making and/or selling a small device that mimics button presses to automate this.

Oops, didn't catch that

The checksum correction feature in Forscan is doing some heavy lifting with this approach, I'm wondering about the forscan version numbers, for those that haven't had this work. Any updates available that might help that feature work better? Disregard, I misunderstood.

I contacted a friend that has been performing some of those brake light recall updates to ask about this. Sounds like the after recall values might only really show up on the devices they used for the updates, if the session was saved on that device, which may not have occurred. I'll report back...

There's a service history page on the ford website, if you login, then look in the vehicle dashboard. Just checked mine, it has the date for my recall service, but nothing related to the new hex codes.

The brake light recall did flash the modules where those hex codes are stored. I hadn't considered this, but the as-built data on the motorcraft site might not be updated to match. Has anyone confirmed that the website does update to match after a recall, or would it just remain there as it was...

< Crosses fingers aggressively

Good callout. I just had to replace a few lug nuts on a mercury with capped nuts after the cap was loose and twisting, got a bit mangled. Had a similar feel to cross threaded nuts, could be easy to misinterpret that.

Any chance to see photos from the side?

That rack is so much more attractive and solid looking than any of the others so far. Nice combo with the bull bar.

It's an optional feature for XL models, configured when you order, and standard on XLT/Lariat. There's some other threads on this forum from users that have installed one after delivery, and what was involved with that.

I had new tires installed on mine under 100 miles, by the dealership. Definitely over-torqued them. If they tightened them at all during their inspection/detailing/setup when it showed up on the lot, could explain it. That's the only cause I'm familiar with for rings of no contact on the rotors...

haven't seen this discussed on a maverick before, but I had a similar issue on an 08 Milan that got isolated down to warped rotors from over-tightened lug nuts. Might want to check that those are correctly torqued, especially if anyone's been on them with an impact wrench at some point.

No concerns that lowering that plate holder is blocking airflow to the intercooler?
