In the 2018 model year Ecoboost Mustangs had engine covers. I think it was around '19 or '20 that it was deleted from the model. Also about the same time the console gear shift indicators (P,R,N,D,S/M) were no longer illuminated.
My observation regarding interior noise. A door speaker was giving out and making a terrible racket caused by the ANC mic amplifying sounds other than the engine. After unplugging the mic above the rear headliner the noises ceased. After installing a new speaker and not connecting the rear mic...
2018 Ecoboost, 6 speaker system. I hope someone can help me. Just got into my car and heard distortion through the right channel only. The radio was not on, the engine sound was weird, and the system seemed to amplify little rattles and made the engine note lumpy. While driving and listening the...

Check your tire pressure. I have the same set up as you. My tires were over-inflated when I took delivery, the ride suffered until checking the pressure....what a change it is now. I find it very comfortable and compliant.
From inside the hood the engine is silky smooth. It is a light injector tick you hear from the left in the car, it is faint. The engine has its regular hum, very smooth. I did listen to a new 2019 ecoboost on a dealer's lot, it had it too at cold idle. My concern is also when driving.
Anyone has an ecoboost that hears
the injector ticking at idle, I think the injectors? When cold you can hear a tick emanating from the left side towards the vent/A pillar area from driver's seat. It quiets down after warm but still slight noticeable tick. When accelerating you can hear a...
I had the same issue. Dealer did a software update which completely solved the problem. Now it is buttery smooth shifting P,R,D and also while driving, especially downshifts.
Hi, That JL sub looks substantial and I bet it tightens up the bass. Do you think you could post a picture of the underside of the rear speakers from inside the trunk, would love to see the magnet structures on those?
It is unfortunate hearing your story. In the future, before dealer service, have them do a walk around with you and notate the condition of your vehicle upon arrival. Be really thorough i.e., rims, body panels, spoiler, chin spoiler, etc. I do this whenever I have taken cars in for dealer...
The 2018 Stangs have double note horns. It is unfortunate for 2019 models Ford went to single note. Also, 2018 automatic shift lever indicators(PRNDS) is illuminated whereas 2019 models are not. All cost cutting measures one can suppose.
I did a good listening session with the B&O system today...I was not blown away, it is nice though. The low end had drive to it, good impact to my ears, if you want really thundering hip hop bass this is not it.
Output was more than ample with not much breakup/distortion. I didn't find 12...
I would like to do the same thing. Did you add an amp, if not, how is the low end(better or same), and the actual output/loudness (SPL) better or same?
Which Infinity speakers are you using? Thanks
The base audio system is lacking, but you will find, I think, the same problem with the rear speakers in upgraded factory systems; they are tuned to behave this way. Rear speakers act as a filler or just add ambiance. So, it comes down to preference.
I listened to the B&O system today. It has more substantial bass and greater detail, however it does not come close to what I have heard in cars with premium brands like Lexicon. I rate it 7.5 out of 10...good but not anything to marvel at. Harman bought B&O's automotive division, however I...
Before buying try testing one first. Sophisticated suspension systems when broken can be very costly to fix, e.g. air suspensions; magnaride has a computer module plus fluid filled electro dampers to consider if problems arise unlike a conventional suspension. Magnaride settings(normal, sport...
