Why doesn't my 17 Ecoboost premium have the active grille shutters?

must be the block warmer then, what exactly is the block warmer, I removed the little dongle as well. so if people want to have a block warmer, they just buy the little cord we removed? or is it something special on our engines.

good deal though, im not really mad anymore though. I read stories of peoples breaking and having to remove bumper to fix and saves me the hassle of future crap.

No block heater on my car, and I've been through 3 Canadian winters, keeping the car in an unheated garage with temps getting down to -30, and it starts up on the first try every time. I don't think the block heater is necessary for anyone south of the Arctic Circle.

It helps keep the engine block and oil warm/thinner, so when you cold start it at -30 Celsius, the oil won't be as thick and potentially cause harm to your engine over time.

Blue Moon, a block heater has nothing to do with the battery charge on your car. It's only used to heat the block.

Hope my answer helped

Since the 2018 EB excludes the AGS, it should be possible to disable AGS in Forscan on the 15-17 for AGS delete. Does anyone know the Asbuilts in the PCM for this?
