    Wireless Carplay

    IMHO, you need a highly resolving system to hear the difference compared to high quality compressed audio. But if you think you can hear a difference, that's all that matters.

    SOLVED: Electrical Issues - Lost Communications and Invalid Data Received

    The AWD module grounding issues seems to have a different set of codes than you though? Did you look at the AWD grounding module TSB? Also, what is the deal with the brake code? Very strange. Loss of communication with various modules sporadically are no big deal. I see those logged all the...

    Wireless Carplay

    I use the wireless for long trips even. Rarely encounter the overheating charging issue. Don't notice lower sound quality either. Those that play lossless over the stock B&O system need to reconsider--waste of bandwidth! I have a separate (different brand) dongle when my wife is driving...

    Rear axle bolt recall # 23S55 issues

    It is NOT a stronger bolt. It is the same spec bolt, just a new one with the latest part #. If you had the recall already performed and it snapped, definitely report it to the NHTSA. Maybe if enough cases build up, Ford will be forced to do the right thing and install the double rear mount...

    Not remembering bluetooth devices suddenly

    If you personally verified the Sync version as being the latest (23188), maybe do a master reset and start from scratch.

    Extended warranty!!!

    I disagree. Doing anything through the dealer is time-consuming and a hassle. I DIY maintenance so I am not at the dealer getting maintenance already, so any warranty work is an extra 2 trips for me and usually involves leaving my car for the day. I ended up replacing parts myself even when i...

    Wireless Carplay

    For some reason, we all get different experiences. On the Yeysua, I get no lag (I have the Fullscreen mod). Wired Carplay (and most other dongles) is laggy with the mod.

    Doors Woofers Upgrade

    Stock power is low. Get the best high sensitivity drivers you can find.

    Leak from driver side rear?

    With the liftgate open, make sure the rubber boots are all intact or that could be a source for water intrusion. The roof drains go down the c-pillar so that wouldn't make sense.

    Coil Spring Inserts

    Isn't the rear Eibach drop about 1.6" and the Steeda about 1.2"? ...that's your 1/2" right there.

    Parking sensors yelling at me...

    2020's are needing all the TPMS sensors replaced. They only last 5 years... Do them all at once, preferrably when you need your tires replaced.

    Any good write ups on replacing spark plugs?

    Wouldn't be a bad idea to do it every 30k miles due to increase in gap.

    Parking sensors yelling at me...

    Is it the same sensor alarming every time or is the whole system too sensitive? In any case, if I get a system out of wack, sometimes a good reboot will cure it. Sometimes even a Forscan module reboot doesn't work so I would recommend disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes.
