Your understanding is incorrect. The 15-17 cars use what is called a bi-xenon HID projector. 1 bulb only, a shield inside the projector will flip down when high beams are activated, exposing the entire bulb to the lens. When low beams are on, the shield flips up which gives that signature sharp...
Look into either the Philips xtreme visions or the Osram night breakers. These are the two brightest options for the D3S bulbs our cars take.

Well, as suggested, disabled O2's may be a problem. I've also seen cases where, with aftermarket cats, a tune requires an adjustment on what the O2's expect to see, and aftermarket cats may not trigger the "catalyst function" portion of the monitors without adjustment.
So does the car have functioning cats on it? My morning coffee hasn't kicked in yet but I'm seeing where the car had gutted cats, I'm not seeing where it currently has functioning cats.
45 miles may not be enough to set the monitors, as @drive_55_not said above a lot of parameters have to be...
You don't NEED or REQUIRE an app. That being said, if you want to nerd out and tweak scanning ranges or customize the detector, that is where an app comes into play. On my old Gen 1 Valentine one I used an app called VaV1 to do this. My current V1G2 I have Valentine's V1Connect which also works...
This might be one of the most boomer-tastic threads I have ever read on this forum, and that is saying something since I've been on here over 8 years.
I think what you really want is a crown victoria with a coyote swap + manual swap. My 04 Marauder has like 3 whole computers in it, all the...
VA is one of those states I won't speed in (OH is the other), yet anytime I'm going down 95 I'll see plenty of people doing 20 + over and zig-zagging through traffic. I wonder how many people live in that state and don't realize how draconian and strict the driving laws are?
I bet your bushings have been bad for much longer than you expect. My car has about 37k on it and I know the driver side rear diff bushing was ripping in the 20's.
I did the diff bushing inserts + the lethal performance through bolt upgrade. I had read multiple posts on this forum of people...
This is the correct answer, putting a LED bulb in a HID projector housing is incorrect and flat out janky. If you're looking to stay with the factory color temp and want a bulb that puts out "the most light", the Osram night breaker lasers are one of the best bulbs on the market.

that sounds like he had the Borla ATAK. The ATAK and Corsa Xtreme exhausts are the two most common picks for 5.Bro's who think a good sounding exhaust is exhaust by volume, not tone.
My S-type is a very reasonable middle ground.
Pull the bolt out and see if the threads look boogered up. If you're lucky, it was just pushing thru some crap. Important to make sure the threads are clean on these bolts and bolt holes since this is such a finicky install.
Hey Benny, has Levittown been impacted by the CDK outage? I just placed an order for a couple small things, just hoping that won't impact my order.
Thanks,

"Ventilated seats" already exist and don't have a Peltier device for cooling. I know BMW did this for years and other mfgs did as well, it was just a fan that circulated ambient cabin air through the seat.
I will agree the seat cooling is flawed, this was a topic back when I bought my 16 new...
I wasn't happy when I found that. But on the plus side, as it could always be worse, I've had no paint flake from aluminum corrosion on the hood like plenty of other people.
Sounds like the factory workers weren't drunk or high when your car got put together. My trunk is very misaligned from the factory and I have couple funny gaps on the bumpers. I test drove a brand new 2015 Roush RS2 before buying my car which had some really wonky panel gaps including a very...
