What who did you chose for your tune?

LokiWolf, are you concerned about warranty issues with your tune?

Not Really. I turn back to Stock with 93 in the tank if it goes in for service. The Manager of the Service Department knows all of my vehicles are tuned. I don’t abuse them, I take care of them, and they know that. I drive them fast, but they are clean, and I have all the regular maintenance done at the dealer.

If the tune caused the damage, I would be the first one to admit it. Pay to play, and losing your warranty is always a risk.

Got my tune files from 5-Star. Car is completely a different animal now; very peppy (comparing to my Range Rover SC and X5M). It feels as powerful as those two but a bit squirrely on handling and braking; but I’m sure I’ll get used to it. Not racing it, just daily driving.

Sound and shifting are so much better, but I feel like there’s a heating issue going on. It’s only been 1 day with the tune but the car seems to give off a lot more heat from the engine and underneath; I feel it from the side steps on my ankles when I get out and can smell coolant.

Is that normal until the car adjusts? Seems like the turbos are always spooled and the radiator fan is always running.

You will see a significant improvement in MCT’s with a good aftermarket IC. These stock aren’t as bad as other EB Ford platforms, but still many gains to be had.

Think I will be getting that intercooler sooner than later [emoji2957]

If you are driving it hard, yes, but not under normal driving. You should NOT smell coolant.

How many miles on yours? What tune from 5Star?

[mention]LokiWolf [/mention] I’ve got 23k on the clock, I don’t drive it hard since I usually have the kids with me. I do use the remote start and idle a bit because of the kids, so maybe that’s why?

Noticed it after a 80 mile round trip yesterday; 40 there - off for 3 hours - 40 back. Doing 70-90 mph both ways.

I’m just being a bit over cautious due to the mods and warranty issues.

I’m running the 93 octane street / tow tune from 5Star.
