  1. No oil in dual valve catch can...

    My EB Premium has a UPR dual valve catch can installed since 50 miles. I usually drain any oil every 500 miles. During the first 1,000 miles, the CC caught a little less than an ounce of oil. Since then, the CC has caught less and less oil. No oil drained out after the last 500 miles. I do...
  2. Door Latch Recall...

    Just got a recall letter from Ford concerning door latch recall. It appears that the doors could open while driving. The worst case scenario I could think of is a fast stop in tight traffic. The doors are so large that they could do mighty damage to somebody's car in the adjacent lane if the...
  3. At least the Mustang will stay in the US (at least for a little while longer)

    Ford just announced that all of its small car assembling will be done in Mexico. Ford doesn't make enough profit on their small cars to justify making them in the US.
  4. Recall Error...

    Just checked Ford Recall site: "System Error...please try again later". Recall for the Recall? Makes for great confidence.
  5. Map Lights on convertible...be careful.

    Last week, I drove my convertible with the top down. When I got home, I put the top back up up and locked the top. When doing so, you have to grip the lock handle and twist it. When I tried to start the car this morning...the battery was totally dead. I put a battery charger on. This evening...
  6. POIs and XM-Sirius radio options?

    If a POI is set...is it set 'permanently' until it is removed by the owner? I thought I had set the 'rest stop POI' but the next time I started up I found that I had to again go in and set the POI. I have both Traffic and Weather (radar) options available. If I go into settings and...
  7. Planning for next winter...

    How well does an EB with auto trans, limited slip dif, and OEM AT tires handle snow? Does traction control, 'snow/wet' drive mode enhance handling? I am going to have to drive from Minnesota to Florida and back in mid winter. So, I won't have the chance to switch from ATs to snows and back...
  8. Unable to generate a Vehicle Health Report and FordIVTeam response.

    NEW UPDATE... VHR instructions: Activate VHR on screen; check. SYNC cellphone; check. Nothing in OBD port; check. Run engine for at least one minute; check. Make sure that auto trans is in Park; check. Doing all that and I kept getting "cannot run VHR because odometer is less than 200 miles...
  9. Warning Chime?

    Several times over the last few months...when I accelerate from about 30 mph up to highway speeds, a warning chime beeps about 5-6 times. I checked the tach and I did not come close to redlining. No warning light or message flashes anywhere on the dash. The warning comes equally from all of the...
  10. SYNC Troubles...

    I need some advice about SYNC updating. I downloaded and unzipped the newest SYNC update unto a new USB thumb drive. I drove the vert for the requested 30 minutes. SYNC screen stated that the download/update was successful. The Ford site stated that the update would add a new file to the...
  11. SYNC Update Report repeatedly unsuccessful!

    This last week, I downloaded the newest SYNC update unto a blank USB thumb drive. The update appeared to be successful. However, the update site asked for an upload from the thumb drive back to Ford Support. The sendback file is an XML file. Ford support repeatedly stated that the report upload...
  12. What is the reason for the Sync update reply?

    Why does Ford require a final connection with the Sync update USB memory stick? I downloaded the latest Sync Update onto a blank USB memory stick. The update correctly loaded into my Mustang. The update website states that after downloading that the memory stick must communicate again with the...
  13. Setting sensitivity on ACC?

    My user's manual states that the owner can adjust the 'sensitivity' of the Adaptive Cruise Control and/or Collision Warning System. It says that the sensitivity can be adjusted using the steering wheel controls. I know how to adjust the gap between my vehicle and the vehicle ahead. What exactly...
  14. Diode Dynamics Side Marker Installation...addenda

    The video(s) and printed instructions for installing the DD side markers leave out an important factor: The male wiring connector tab in the new side markers is not fixed in position! The instructions show the installer simply inserting the new side marker into the female OEM wiring harness...
  15. Grill shutters?

    Does anyone know why the Ecoboost Premium Convertible does not have the auto-adjusting grill shutters? I know that the shutters are supposed to help with aerodynamics, etc. But why would having the soft top up or down have any influence on air flow on the front of the car?
  16. Neo-Luddite Warning...

    Flash...ALL 2018 cars will have to be equipped with automatic anti-collision braking systems! NTSB says that having the system will cut rear end collisions by at least 40%. Now, please listen to all the whiners who will be begin to scream about having another safety system crammed down their...
  17. Any seating cooling updates...

    There was a flurry of complaints in 2015 about the cooling seat units, either not working at all or very little cooling. Some Forum members were trying to redesign/repair the units. Others complained to Ford. Now...no discussion for months. Did everyone simply give up...deciding that Ford...
  18. UPR CC Updating?

    I installed a UPR dual Valve catch can system soon after it became available. Recently it came to my attention that the dual valve system was not complete in preventing oil vapor to enter the turbo. UPR now has a Billet Dual Breather Tank system available. 1) Does the dual breather system...
  19. Roush front end package?

    I like the looks of the complete Roush front end (hood, bumper, grill, etc.). Does the Roush grill delete the front radar sensors?
  20. Clean side catch after dual valve installation?

    I have been unable to get a concise answer to my question about whether or not I should install the UPR clean side catch can after I have already installed the UPR dual valve CC. Under what driving conditions do you need the extra clean side CC? My dual valve has barely collected any oil...
