So believe it or not... The fix for me, I found on a forum a year ago. You have to go into the Ford menu for the phone settings and change the ringtone from the Ford one to "use phone ringtone" and that solved the issue. Whenever things get updated, it reverts back and you'll need to change it...
In snow, put it in snow mode, don't use 4A or "Normal" 4A. Snow mode still uses traction control. You can manually turn the traction control off. Snow mode also retards the throttle a bit.
If the snow is deep or it's icy, use mud/ruts. Mud/ruts locks it 50/50 and disables traction control...
I have the AE002 type from that link listed above (harness type) and I've never had a problem with it. It works great and I've had it installed for well over 6 months now.
I have a 2019 xlt 202a with activex fake leather, heated and cooled seats. The seats are the most comfortable of any vehicle I've ever sat in. My wife's qx80 has the worst seats. When we take her car somewhere even my son complains that his legs fall asleep in the infinity.
Yes it's normal to have the dark spots, I have the same setup. You will have even worse dark spots if you turn the high beams on as it disables the fogs. Do you know the lights will also flicker like crazy if your auto start stop turns your engine off while you're stopped?
Yes, it's another feature that auto-defaults to 'on' each time you start the car and there is no setting to permanently disable it. I'm sure that traction control helps them avoid "rollover" or "flip-over" lawsuits. They really don't want you to turn it off and leave it off.
It's obvious that the benefit is for Ford and not for the customer based on the simple fact that you can't turn it off and LEAVE it off. The fact that it turns on by default and can't be disabled by the customer should be enough to throw up the red flag.
Interestingly enough, I had this done and though it was fixed... What it actually does is stop the mirrors from hunting but it doesn't actually solve the problem. Most people won't notice it because they don't have 2 different mirror settings that are very far apart from one another (or it's...
So I found these plastic coated magnets and ordered them a little while back...

I tested which side I need to install it on. They are polarized so you have to flip it to make sure it wants to...
The gas savings your wife will get with the Expedition over the QX80 will be worth it alone. The 5.7L liter QX80 is permanently stuck in sport mode. Even though the QX80 is supposed to be a "luxury" car, I much prefer the Expedition, even in the XLT trim package. I don't really like the seats...
That makes sense. I've never seen my boost gauge go over 80%, they probably have it locked down. I have a sneaking feeling that those who own the Platinum get to see that gauge go to 100%.
Does anyone actually know if the firmware of the vehicle is different for the XLT package VS. the Platinum package in terms of allowing more HP based on octane rating? Maybe someone that works at Ford or has done dyno tests with different grades of fuel on an XLT package.
Wouldn't the...
The problem with the XLT is that it sets the rear controls back to "Auto Vent" if you change either the rear temperature or rear fan settings on the front console (via the LCD panel). If someone in the back seat sets the rear heat/cool system to either "floor", "cieling", or "floor and...

How are rebates and dealer incentives taxed?
Many dealers offer cash incentives or manufacturer rebates on the sticker price of a vehicle in order to encourage sales. For example, a $1,000 cash rebate may be offered on a $10,000...
I've tried trimming that small black plastic tab so that it actually fits inside the hole in the seatbelt buckle. It didn't have much of an effect because like you mentioned, there is no "pressure" on the buckle from it. I tried adding some very small screws to pull the tab closer to the...
Maybe they changed the strength of the magnets or had a bad batch... Mine just slips back down whenever I hit any types of bumps, regardless of being inserted correctly.
I'll try adding an additional magnet where William suggested when I get them in the mail tonight. My car only has one...
I'd really appreciate it if you can find the time. This is what I have on order right now... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XXPJLBF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I think you have to solve the problem on the ceiling side. I don't think you can alter the buckle side. Otherwise you're going to mess with the proper functionality of it.
Mine is "still attached to the ceiling" but I'm taking about the metal part of the tip falling out of the plastic retention hole. I bet the people that say theirs is "still there" aren't noticing that it's fallen out of the retention hole (but the magnet is still keeping it on the ceiling). If...
Does anyone else here have a problem with the 3rd row seat belt not being retained properly by the magnet holder in the ceiling of the car?
I never make it more than 2 or 3 days before it falls out again. I've tried trimming down the part that it plugs into (the inside retainer that holds...
EcoBoostJim,
Here is some helpful information about your mirrors. I've gone through this myself with my car, had it reprogrammed, and it has worked 100% for me. No more random clicking of either mirror.
1. The next time it happens, take a video of it on your phone. The dealer (some...
This should work (if your macbook charges off of a USB-C connector) but it's about $95.
