Maybe I should edit my first post, but I have figured out a little more of what is happening. So to backtrack, there are two popup warning that I see when I drop below 5 mph, here they are:
One can be acknowledged by pushing the "OK" button and the other can not. When you hit OK for the...
The perfect AFR for gas is 14.7 to 1, air to gas. All gas ICE designed to run rich, in the 10-12 to 1 range so as to prevent predetonation, keep temps lower, etc. So if a computer is spitting out fuel to keep the AFR at 11:1, then giving it more air just causes more gas to be spit so the ratio...
It came up again yesterday when the phone was plugged in but sleeping, and using radio instead of carplay.
However, this time I was also getting the other common warning repeatedly, "System is using information for content..." or something like that, and this warning has a prompt to click an...
Awesome, thanks for taking those pictures. With my XLT, will probably be relocating the carplay USB port to near where the wireless charger would have been so that i can get rid of the ugly cords.
I ordered the passenger side bed storage box and the Ford roll up tonneau cover from FairwayFordParts.net. They sell parts at a 20% discount from the website, no tax and shipping for both was only $30. I ordered over the last weekend and just received today; super fast.
As others have stated...
The charging pad is only available on the Lariat trim, and the lower dash area is a little different in an XLT. I will have to go out and take a look but I don't think there is a USB in the same location on the XLT.
FYI, now that I have a new iPhone connected, I no longer get warnings. I tested it by being in a phone app while driving, with the 8" screen in various settings screens, and not once did the warning pop up even after stopping and starting or slowing and speeding up. I think the issue was in my...
It appears that it was an issue with my iPhone/IOS. I just happened to receive my new IPhone 13 last night, set it up to mirror my old phone, and this morning no warnings at all. Which is how it should be. Just like other cars I have driven, whatever settings they don't want to you adjust are...
There may not be huge demand for old car batteries now but there will be in the future. Car batteries' capacity drop as they age, but the batteries can still hold ~75% charge and can be reutilized for household battery storage, or applications that don't result in regular discharges.
It is not always on my screen. It pops us if I slow down below 5mph and then speed up above 5mph, whether I am typing anything or not. So in cities with stop and go traffic, it pops up repeatedly as the car slows and speeds up. I have had it in CarPlay the majority of time so maybe it only...
I understand that the car will disable the ability to adjust settings when moving, that is not the problem. The problem is that every time the car slows down below 5 mph (you don't have to come to a stop) and then speed up above 5 mph the warning pops up. It does this every single time you...
On my old Subaru, you get this warning once when you start up the vehicle for the first time. And if you try to adjust settings whiled stopped at say a red light, and then start moving, the screen just resets back to main page. In the Maverick, you get the message every single time the car...
In the 6.5” screen (on the FX4), there is a lighting section in the menu and the default delay time for the auto headlights is 20 seconds. Can be changed to 10 secs or OFF.
I'll be picking up my XLT (2.0, AWD, 4k, FX4, Lux, A51) today, trading in our Subaru Forester Xt (CEL just popped up this morning, Argh). The Forester also has had a "hood flap" for its entire life, dealer said they couldn't adjust it. Even though I work on my vehicles, I neve felt it was not...
Not exactly sure what you mean here. Yeah, the value on the sticker on your car doesn't change, but making changes can detrimentally effect the car's ability to tow up to the rated weight. If an owner makes changes that lowers the effective towing capability and an accident occurs related to...
