Do the 16's have an differential temp sensor?

[valentinoamoro]

Cup holders are different? Does 2015 not have the automatic cup tensioners from the factory?

And based on owners manuals, 2015 says nothing about rear axle temp, but 2016 states it has an over temp warming if it gets too hot, which leads me to believe 2015s don't have it. I just figured they all had it.

It (15's) doesnt. It has rubberized grippers. It doesnt matter if they work well or not, they are not the LATEST - off to the dealer with me next week.

One more reason to sell your 15's and 16's.
Fords going to be rolling out their updated spider screens on the 17's.
They are really screwing with us loyal owners.

Revival.

How can we add the diff sensor to our 15's?

Also, can't tell if serious about the cup holders lol

My 2016 GT/PP, you can see what I assume is the diff temp sensor in the cover.

Automatic cars have different diff housings/pumpkins than the MT82 cars. The Autos have an aluminum diff housing, and the MT82 cars have a cast iron heavy sumbitch.

I'd guess auto cars have a diff sensor that shuts the power down when it gets too hot, and the MT82s don't. I'm 90% sure my MT82 2016 PP car does not have a temp sensor in the diff.

Only 2016+ PP's have diff sensor.

If true, I'd demand a refund because they forgot to put one in yours. Surprised it doesn't throw some code the dealer would have seen if your car was ever in for any service.

Well, I was more interested in looking at the suspension when I had the car on a lift while changing the trans fluid, so I must have missed the sensor.

But my rear diff housing/pumpkin is pretty rusted already due to it being un-treated cast iron. The one in the picture below (stolen from a post above) is very different from mine, looks like it's aluminum.

It is not, it is rusty cast iron just like yours. Just the rear cover is aluminum.

Did you replace your rear cover? Or is that how they come?

I'll poke my head under my car after work.
