    Random upgrades while being repaired.

    So while my PIU is in the garage for probable engine replacement. I figure no time like the present to make other "adjustments". Like changing from column to console shift. The other major/ish change I want to make is something akin to SYNC. From what I understand it is either impossible or...

    Engine replacement question

    Yes. The oil is fine. Nothing on the dipstick or the underside of the cap.

    Engine replacement question

    So my 2014 PIU recently ran into the following problems in this order: White smoke cloud upon startup. - happened only once and ran fine for about a day and a half. No boost - became slow as molasses and built no boost. Happened simultaneously with: Under heavy acceleration shifts out of gear...

    oil pressure, no boost, leaking coolant, no shifting at WOT

    EDIT: It is a 2014 PIU Ecoboost 3.5 and has 125K. All of the sudden. All of these problems happened at once. one morning when I started the car there was a gout of white smoke which went on for about 2 minutes and then went away. I thought...that's very odd and worried that I had a head...

    Distance to Empty (DTE) problem

    no it was a Michigan state police car. It reads in miles. It says miles per gallon it is just set for uk gallons maybe to bump the mpg? When changed to us gallons it is the same. Still says 6** miles to empty.

    Distance to Empty (DTE) problem

    I think I misread your message. I put it back to imperial because that’s what it was when we got it.

    Distance to Empty (DTE) problem

    I just messed with it for a minute and then changed it back. And it isn’t km it is miles. So the best I can really hope for is 340 or so. I just want to know if it will learn and when or if I have to do something

    Distance to Empty (DTE) problem

    2014 PIU After using Forscan to turn off dark car mode and changing from uk gallons to us gallons and then back to uk gallons my miles to empty says approximately double what it actually should. With a full tank it says 680. I've heard that it takes about 500 miles to learn but the fuel...

    Another step I neglected to mention, I think, I sprayed the whole panel that is covered with spray adhesive first.

    To update. the WB on the door code is the domestic specialorder code. I have no idea what that means. the paint code is adjacent to the Ext Pnt: and it is LM which is royal blue. LM/M6968

    Dash wiring

    My PIU is in the shop. The dealer is replacing the wheel bearings in the rear so I can’t check this on my own right now. Does anyone know if the under dash wiring harness is the same for all the models? For example would the police explorer have the same dash harness as the standard explorer...

    Rear Door Speaker Holes

    So I see. In any case. This is a nice in between. It looks, in my opinion, better than just holes or retail speaker grilles and it is a lot cheaper than new door panels.

    Rear Door Speaker Holes

    Not sure about all of them but this was the case in mine. Maybe yours too. If you care. my kids were complaining that they couldn’t hear the music. So I grabbed some speakers at the pick and pull and was going to install them. I was hoping they had connectors but was ready to run speaker...

    Blue goose color code? Dash wiring diagram?

    Sorry. Blue goose is a nickname. I guess the real color would be called something like Michigan state police blue.

    Blue goose color code? Dash wiring diagram?

    So a couple weeks ago I picked up a 2014 PIU. 3.5 eco boost. It's an MSP Blue Goose. I have 3 questions actually. 1. What is the paint code for this? what I can find seems to say LM but i don't think thate's quite right in looking at the paints available to buy with that code. 2. Where can...
