    PIUs - Ford Develops Software To Bake Away Coronavirus In Police Vehicles

    I follow the city of Santa Barbra Fleet Management on youtube and they posted a video about this update. Then did the same thing with a malibu and a crown vic just by turning the heat on. Not sure why they needed any special software for this. Just turn the heat on and leave it running for 90...

    2020 Extended Service Plans Pricing @ Dealer Cost

    I think the confusion is people, including myself, aren't familiar with the term ESP or who Joel is. First I thought it was Employee Special Pricing.. but now I assume it means extended service plan, but no need to get salty.

    Possible to Supercharge the 3.7L Engine?

    No problem... Seems like the "front" of the motor is different than on the mustang...for one there is a motor mount there. But it's also not as flat as the mustang. But I totally think it's doable. Hold my beer while I start a gofundme. lol.

    Mods, could you move this to the interceptor forum please? I thought it would be a general question, now I'm not so sure.

    High charge voltage

    So charge voltage is back down to normal. A word of warning: I don't know the specifics, but I'm going to make the hypothesis that the Interceptor's charging system is designed to rapidly recharge flooded cell batteries in the event the battery is low. More rapidly than a car normally would...

    Possible to Supercharge the 3.7L Engine?

I've previously built a turbo kit for my GSXR 750 from scratch... and for many years I owned a company developing 2nd gen RX7 and 1st gen DSM tuning products...

    High charge voltage

    I could tell over the past several months the OEM battery in my 2016 (FPIU) was dying because every morning the resting voltage was lower and lower as the days and months went on.. But it started fine. It has always maintained right around 14V when running. This morning it was a VERY slow...

    Leaking Motor Mount

    My the passenger side mount on my 2016 FPIU with 38k just failed. I was surprised to see drops of oil in the garage. I had hit an animal prior and thought it might be blood. Looking under the hood, I can see it's all over that side of the engine bay. Took me a bit to figure out where it was...

    Pursuit mode

    I never brought it in... It's such a pain dealing with a dealer. Taking off form work, etc. Now I'm over 36k. I have to see what is covered under Ford's extended warranty I have.

    That mustang sound..

    I've never heard a V6 with exhaust that sounded good. There's just something about a V6 that never sounds good IMO.
