  1. Slop / backlash in driveshaft - 2018 EBPP A10

    I hate to call this backlash, but it seems to be moving like backlash in the joint at the differential. This can’t be in the ring & pinion gears, I can’t imagine it would even drive with that much slop. I’m guessing something in the u-joint or whatever format it is. Makes a clunk sometimes...
  2. 2018 Ecoboost Engine Failure @ 58k Miles

    2018, EBPP, 58k miles, bought new by me. Oil changed every 5-6k miles, always synthetic, always 93 octane. FP tune installed by a dealership. Was about 2 hours into a road trip last Friday when the engine failed running down I-45. Car was in adaptive cruise control at 75mph, 10th gear, and...
  3. 2018 Sync3.0 CarPlay Skipping / Buffering With Waze

    Search wasn’t finding any relevant results, so here goes. For about a month now, CarPlay has had occasional problems connecting to my iPhone 13, and is now regularly seeming to skip or buffer while listening to audio and using Waze. Audio from Patreon or Apple Podcasts seem ok if I never use...
  4. Yet Another Wheel Bearing Question

    I'm getting some noise from the rear axle area of my 2018 EBPP that sounds like wheel bearings. There is also a bunch of slop in the driveshaft at the pinion bearing area, but it seems like that is mostly a clang/clunk sound when going from R to D or when downshifting. At first I thought the...
  5. How to find option packages (PP2) with VIN only?

    When I was researching new cars to buy, I was able to view the window sticker / Monroney Sticker with all the option packages shown. Now that I’m looking at some salvage vehicles, the online window sticker options appear to be gone for “older” vehicles - like the 2018 GT Premium I’m looking at...
  6. Air-Fuel Ratios for Stock & FP Tune Cars

    I haven't done any datalogging with my car - I don't think I have any way to do that with the tools I have, and have purposely kept the mechanicals as close to stock as I can to keep reliability close to factory levels. I do have the FP tune though, and have recently been keeping an eye on A:F...
  7. Paint Bubbles or Runs on Doors?

    Just noticed this today when checking the air in the tires... frankly I can’t tell if it’s a run in the paint or something bubbling underneath. If it was a run, I feel like I would have seen it already though... I’ve been all over this car for a couple years now. Searching only found paint...
  8. SLiPLO Bumper Scrape Guard - Anyone using this?

    Link not included because it looks spammy... but you can find it by googling “sliplo”. Title says it all - this is the self-adhesive strip of plastic wedges that you put on the bottom of your splitter to help it slide over driveways, curbs, etc. Obviously doesn’t prevent the splitter from...
  9. Any Ford Engineers or Parts Pros Here with Magneride Experience?

    Hoping to get some insight into how the damper tuning was managed between the models where it was available. I'm guessing that my '18 EBPP tuning is pretty similar to '18+ GTPP, but the PP2 may be it's own animal, and the '16+ GT350/R's are different still. Ideally I'd like to learn what the...
  10. Magneride VDM Swap - PP1 to PP2, GT350, or GT350R

    I'm upgrading my EBPP+MR with GT350R springs and although I think the stock MR dampers will be OK, I'm wondering how far I can go with the GT350/R upgrades. The VDM unit in the trunk seems like an obvious choice - easy bolt in and cheap. I assume that chassis-specific damper tuning is...
  11. Magneride Clunks or Rattles?

    2018 Ecoboost PP Premium with Magneride - Have 25K miles on the car now and it has been a treat to drive. I really only noticed this when I started taking #2 Son to his new school. The drop off area has a transition from the driveway to the street where I notice a clunk that sounds like some...
  12. LMR Drilled / Slotted Rotors for Base GT / EBPP

    curious to see if anyone is running these rotors, and if they are in fact rear cooling. I suspect a stock photo, but would love to find out that they really had the cooling vents on the back side of the rotor.
  13. “Your vehicles software is being updated

    I get this message every time I open FordPass, and their chat help has not been able to resolve anything. I found something short of a recall notice on the NHTSA site: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10167210-0001.pdf has anyone tried this or managed to solve this on their own? Mine...
  14. Ford Pass Updates - or Lack Thereof?

    My FordPass appears to be stuck in software update mode... is there a way to force the update rather than wait on it to never get the job done? Pic of the app screen...
  15. Magneride Front Hub Bearing Interchange

    I want to install long studs on my 2018 EBPP MR car for a 19x11 square setup. Since this is my daily, I can't have the car off the road for more than a weekend, so I'm thinking about buying a pair of hub bearing assemblies to install the studs ahead of the swap. However, I'm finding several...
  16. 2018 EBPP Upgrades - A Slow Read

    I’ve got a short list of mods - at least at this time. Intercooler and tune are about it because this is my daily with an extra warranty on it, so I’m going to stay pretty mild. However, I do want the car to be the best it can be within those parameters. I’ve already got the parts that will...
  17. Indicated Speed Error on Waze

    So a few weeks ago, I noticed that the speed shown on the Waze app was way high compared to my speedometer - it had been spot on until I noticed the error, but has been a little over 14% high ever since. Running Waze in any other vehicle shows the speed to be spot on again, so it seems to be...
  18. Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power

    2018 EBPP A10 Premium, MR. 12,052 miles. So this just happened - it was time to run some errands and fill up the tank, 33 miles to empty, so not bone dry. Since the car was light, I was going to go run a couple 0-60's before tanking up. Running in park in the garage, I set the drive mode to...
  19. Noob Question - A10 on the Chassis Dyno...

    So someday, I'll get my EBPP on a local chassis dyno. I assume that the operators are going to know what to do, but I'd like to know myself before I go. It looks like the A10 has a 1:1 ratio in 7th gear, and my limited experience with dynos is to run in direct drive when you can. Is this just...
  20. Saw My First S550 Pursuit Car Today...

    Definitely not the Steeda version, it appeared to be a base GT with the 18-Inch Machined-Face Ebony wheels. All black with the typical inside-the-car light package. Didn’t get a picture, but will keep my eyes out on the rest of the road trip. Haven’t seen a Mustang police car on the highways...
