Start with the truck off and door closed. Hold down āOKā on the steering wheel for ~10 seconds while you turn key to āRUNā without actually starting the truck. Let off of the OK button when you see āETā in green on the dash. This stands for āEngineering Testā mode. From there you can scroll...
Settings>Menu Button>Information>OK Button>Oil Life
You should be able to scroll through Seatbelt status, MyKey info, Tire Pressure, Oil life and Trailer Light Status.
This is the best looking setup on have seen on the Edge ST wheels. Maybe you have mentioned it elsewhere but - these require a spacer in the rear to clear the shock, correct?
:clap:
Very clean looking truck Justin! The setup is perfect and the pictures are even better.
I always appreciate thoughtful fitment. It is clear that you also have a passion for photography!
I knew the picture would mean something, to someone. Thanks for confirming š
I will post a new thread specifically about what I learn. 2 tenths of a gallon on my commute this morning, so farā¦
If I gather enough data, I may even make a graph! š
As far as the filter is concerned - some years ago I got into the habit of stabbing edit: (with the help of a hammer or dead blow) a screwdriver into the side of the filter to:
1. Use as a wrench to break it loose
2. Drain the oil out of the filter to avoid this mess.
I pull the plug, stab the...
I didnāt like the color that I was seeing on the dipstick (very scientific metric, I know) and the OLM was at 23% so I changed the oil last night. I even had an apprentice (she only spilled half of a quart on the ground).
I did not take a sample this time, so unfortunately no Blackstone...
It seems to me like you may have actually, definitively, figured this out.
My one question really is this and it is completely out of ignorance - could you, in ForScan, change the battery type to flooded?
I actually brought this up with Blackstone. They claim it does not matter.
Sampling by siphon for testing at specific points during the OCI is common in aviation.
This seems like something we could test. Especially since I am about to change my oil.
I find it hilarious and ironic that actual fuel usage and MPG are two things that I donāt use the ScanGauges for. I do this all through Fuelly.
Because of this I could theoretically just not ever āfill upā...
I have about 6000 miles on my oil now and the OLM is at 23%. The truck is planning for 8300 miles but I will change it within the week. I am really having a hard time NOT sending this sample in to be tested because I did with the previous oil change and this would be a great apples-to-apples...
Please understand that in all modes, full throttle is the same. This is verifiable.
You are making assumptions here from your observations and, while some of them are correct, many are not.
Yes - A little bit. Less than 5%, usually more like 2%. Mostly temperature related.
No
No disconnect is available that I am aware of. It would be unnecessay.
That username may have been banned, but it's safe to say that he's still around. You can understand why he might not want to...
I have seen as low as 27.X% and as high as 72.X%. At both of those numbers the powertrain changes it's behavior. I have watched this for almost a year, every day.
At the low end it will revert to what I refer to as locomotive mode. It uses one motor(generator) to generate power and send it...
If we are talking about the same thing, it is simply the two motor generators in the eCVT doing their thing. I find they make SOME noise whether they are using or generating power. I have always noticed this, but it has never bothered me.
On a related note - I was next to a Wrangler 4xe in...
Essentially, yes, this is what is happening. In reality it is a lot more complicated and I sure varies by external temps.
I recorded itā¦
and, in this case at least, it is exactly 30 seconds.
