    Any 2022's Autostop Eliminated and/or FORScan'd yet

    I haven’t made that change on mine although I did see where to change it in Forscan when I was making other changes.

    No. You can change it in Forscan though.

    Has anyone changed exhaust tips?

    There an exhaust guy near my office and I told him what I wanted and he just did it. Don’t know who the manufacturer is. Thanks though!

    Burning smell from air vents + occasional puff of smoke from engine

    Rotten egg smell is post cat. My thought is a cracked weld at the exit side of one of the cats like we’re hearing about which causes excessive flex pipe rattling.

    What's everyone's drive mode?

    For sure it is. I had to get used to it but it is easier on the drive line. Don’t get me wrong, I like to go fast but not on city streets.

    What's everyone's drive mode?

    I putt around town in Eco…easier on the equipment.

    Anyone use Apple Watch for remote start?

    My app shows up on my watch and I didn’t have to enable private sharing.

    Mishimoto's Explorer ST Catch Can R&D Thread

    When no negative pressure is available such as with wide open throttle, you’re right, the check valve closes and nothing gets pulled from the crankcase. There are other brands though that use the intake tube vacuum to take over at that point. I also have the UPR can which does have the WOT line...

    LED Turn Signal Bulbs

    You’ll get the hyper flash if you install LED’s that don’t have a built in resistor. If you do install those, then yes, you’ll need to use Forscan to disable hyper flash. Hyper flash is there to tell you that one of your standard turn signal bulbs is out. LED’s don’t have the resistance that...

    Smoking on startup after sitting

    That is NOT normal and do not accept that explanation from Ford. That’s one of the craziest “that is normal” excuses I’ve ever heard. Maybe that would make sense if one or more of the rear cylinders valve seals are leaking but still that’s not normal.

    Best use of Ford Pass points?

    I did the Console Vault and a bunch of oil filters.

    Double Honk Question

    Nope. Horn volume is what it is; on/off.

    Yep, I understand where you’re coming. Nothing wrong in playing it safe, that’s for sure. The only changes I made with FS is the double honk, fogs w/hi beams, LED’s and fake engine noise.

    If that’s all you’re planning on doing with ForScan then yes, just get the AS Eliminator and be done. But if you already use FS and you’re proficient enough with it, do it that way. There’s been a lot of attempts to use FS for this and no one has succeeded until now.

    Nice work! I may try that and then remove my SS eliminator.

    UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

    I too cut the water spots on the glass with 0000 steel wool. My glass was spotted since day one and even doing that, there’s still some spots I can’t get out; most likely etched.

    Drivability problem this morning, need opinions

    How many miles on it? After getting on it, the turbos do get hot and when new, there’s a burn-off smell but it also could be the defective weld on the exit side of the CAT. I believe there is a recall coming on this.

    Any 2022's Autostop Eliminated and/or FORScan'd yet

    Yeah, I think he knows about the button. I too don’t like this feature. The most harm on an engine is done at start up so why multiply that 10-20 times per trip. And like UpinBst said, it’s even worse for turbos. I did the Eliminator and I’d do it again too. Plus it’s gay LOL!
