Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. :rolleyes:

BCM replacement/reflash would have been next guess.

You'll have to provide more info if you want some help. If you're still under warranty, I would suggest having your dealer replace the battery as a first step. My guess would be it's something affecting the anti-theft system. I did a bit of googling and found one report that said replacing...

Does it only happen when using remote start? You can repeat it again and again under same circumstances, or does it not happen sometimes? Dealership cannot repeat it?

'Sport' mode disables auto stop-start in all cases.

@FORZDA3 I think I found for you the ultimate Ford-Mazda Miata build. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1992-mazda-mx-5-miata-87/

There is an entire thread on this subject: https://www.explorerst.org/threads/hard-launch-transmission-disengages.4379/post-57241 The torque converter does have a clutch mechanism, so it can slip. So far no one has been able to ascertain whether this is happening due to the TCU attempting to...

I recently contracted RSV from my baby granddaughter. I was visiting, she had a cough and a couple of days later, my daughter had her tested and it came back as RSV. By then, I was sick. Constant sinus drain and high temps, especially at night. I didn't get a good night's rest for 10 days...

Braking noise is tied to vibration. Rather than just answer this, here is a good link: https://www.ferodo.us/technical/tech-tips/brake-noise-tips.html

Put that in a For Sale thread with pics. It will greatly increase your chances of selling as it's a good price!

Why spend a bunch of money on "performance" mods and then use the Ford tune? It's not going to be able to take full advantage of the money spent.

If someone is bringing up the Korean models, I recently saw a GV70 on the road, and (to my eyes at least), it is a looker! It's not a 3-row, but it does have the 3.5 twin turbo, 0-60 in 4.6 and the 1/4 in 13.5 (all Car and Driver).

Calibration is the only thing different between the engines. All other parts are shared. Final drive ratio is different. You should check out @PlatinumST build thread- if you're considering a lot of mods, you might want to see some of his conclusions.

I think it's all a bit of a crap shoot based on the variety of gasoline/ethanol content fuels, and their variability. For myself, if I were taking a long trip on an unmodified vehicle, I wouldn't worry about it. An 88/15 model would probably not give the best mileage. On the other hand, if...

Read this thread.... https://www.explorerst.org/threads/hard-launch-transmission-disengages.4379/post-57241 This is what happens under high load conditions without the appropriate tuning. The ECU tuning will compensate for a lot, but with the mods you describe, torque spikes are in your...

As soon as you changed all of those items (not the handling ones), you pretty much gave up on the FP tune. Get a custom tune from ZFG and enjoy.

There are at least three other threads that address this, but for the most part you're arguing apples/oranges. The key thing to understand is that an open throttle high-load application is very different than a part throttle low-load operation. Here are my thoughts on the matter...

You can share whatever you'd like on the forum (within reason), no one is stopping you. If your experience has been bad, you have every right to share that information. I'm just not sure your approach to the situation is going to have the effect you desire. Especially since you're dealing with...

Trying your case in the "court of public opinion" is probably not going to aid your cause. Just an FYI.
