Thanks for the hits. I did eventually disable the BT on my phone. I guess next time in I'll try the reset.

... Is going wonky on me! I believe I have the latest version: 3.4 Build 23188. This is the 2nd time I went to make a phone call using Sync for the hands free. It showed the call as activated but instead of giving me the phone audio, it started playing my flash drive music. It wouldn't respond...

No problem! That's what we're here for.

On my '20, it was a starter replacement. Extended warranty covered it. It's also a lesson in defeating the auto start/stop feature. It's a waste of battery and starter cycles and has been tested as insignificant in saving fuel.

A guy went to his female doctor, concerned that he wasn't lasting long enough while in bed with his wife. She recommended that he should self service himself first and that way he would have better duration with his wife. He agreed to try. On the drive home, he was troubled because he couldn't...

Like your stripes!

If new wheels are what you want, don't give up. There's always a way with fitment, you just have to find what works for you. Be patient and get the right info. It will come.

No, it kind of resolved itself. Funny, it seemed to happen on the same street more often than not. Might have happened maybe one time after I started this thread and hadn't heard it since.

As far as tires, here are 2 of my recommendations. The Falkens are what I now have. The Pirellis I would try solely based on the ratings. Falkens are not great in snow but they rule on wet and dry roads. I'm FBO and they hold me secure. Already have 32K on them and still plenty left. Sources are...

I'd report them to ford corporate!

Mmm hmm. Looks like FoMoCo.

Rebrand?

Not here but Ford would be the last place I would trust with that diagnosis. At least from my experiences. First thing I would do is check transmission fluid to make sure it isn't low. Sounds like your not getting enough fluid pressure to shift until it builds up.

Shifting in normal mode is designed to advance to the next gear that will keep RPMs within a fuel saving range. If there's no requirement for acceleration, it will jump gears to keep the RPMs down. You will notice this even more on a downgrade where there's even less of a load on the engine...

I'll check on that strut bearing. Is that a separately replaceable part? According to Steeda, they computer designed their strut to OEM specs. At least that's from their mouths.
