Peter: Yes that is the exact issue....I have had two rounds of that remediation with limited results so I'm now escalated to a complete replacement of the pipes.....I should note that I had a recall performed for.....wait for it.........EXHAUST into the cabin....due to a cracked Catalytic...
My experience almost exactly. I’m glad you were able to find it. I am still chasing rattles that I am also certain are in the A or B pillars but they almost all have been that crazy underbody felt shield. Horrible design. I also now have the insane exhaust rattle on acceleration (worse in a...
I am a fleet customer and have a FIN. This is the only way to buy a PIU direct from Ford. No Ford dealer can circumvent this fact. There is a process, though, where during production or upfit the vehicle is damaged beyond a certain $ amount, they send the vehicle to be auctioned to a...

Then.....
Here's a screen grab from an ST underbody walk around walk around video on svtperformance.com

Make a good bootlegging car......could hide about 40...
So I've been reading a lot about various rattles but this one I chased and thought I'd post the journey....
Had an annoying rattle coming from the B Piller/Door jamb area of the passengers side.
Symptoms:
Constant at any speed above 50
more pronounced in high wind
unaffected by temperature...
As an Update to the Option 52P Door Lock Delete un delete it's really an interesting and simple operation.....
There are T27 Torx screws holding on some plastic plates like thiis:
Unlike previous similar deletes, interestingly all the hardware, door and window functions are still connected...
Nice color!
It's certainly a change from the front wheel biased 2014 I've been driving. It drives more like a car and is much more forgiving and easier to drive. Exceptionally responsive and very fast. Braking is incredible. The platform is much improved... I believe our new recruits...
Thanks Peter....Looks like I'm gonna wait to see what's up with these stock wheels in the USA....
Seems weird they are $380 each all of the sudden....
-Dave
Found some for $380 but they all want $125-$200 shipping. My dealer might match the $380 price here.... Maybe I can drive up north and meet someone on a bridge with cash in hand....
So can anyone riddle me what changed to cause the stock OEM steelie wheel to be $489 my price ($530 retail) as compared to $90 previous gen?
We've gone through 3 already and my agency routinely destroys wheels at a fever pace....

SO it wasn't easy but I got my PIU with Sync WITHOUT getting the Interior Upgrade Package by ordering the 12.1" integrated touch screen. So It has the AppLink and the FordPass features and I can even lock it/unlock it and start it from anywhere via the InterTubes......
Adding Sirius to my...
For the benefit of anyone who cares or has a similar issue: NO the rear liftgate latch is NOT deleted as part of the Door Lock inop option from ford. It turns out that between the factory and Troy Design and Manufacturing (the contractor that up-fits the police equipment) somehow a connector...
Thanks Peter,
I have a very rare Arizona Beige (E3) Interceptor! Thanks for the info - I'm not even looking to have the power lift gate, but that would be great, I was just hoping to open the lift gate without a key using the button!
-Dave
Got my 2020 PIU which has the "ready for the road" package.....by Ford wisdom, this option includes the rear door hardware delete which I can live with but.......what's new to me is that it also has appeared to disable the rear hatch power switch so you can only open the hatch with the...
Well Ford finally has some info on this item including a photo!
Available 12.1-inch Integrated Computer Screen
The new available 12.1-inch Integrated Computer Screen on the 2020 Ford Police Interceptor® Utility reduces clutter and frees up valuable space in the front passenger cabin by...
So I cannot get ANY literature or information from Ford on this 12.1" touchscreen option. I assume because it's not going to be offered until Job 2 which looks like the beginning of February. I do recall once seeing a 12.1" android based touchscreen being offered in a Raptor once but it was...
I did order 68B to see how it works.....In the previous model it was a separate module which was a pain. I spoke with my Havis rep and this 12.1" touchscreen option is NOT a Havis....they have a flip up 11.5" touch screen option now available. It looks like a decent option too as it bolts to...
I concur about the 65U Sync offering being odd without the large display. I was in a conundrum about it because my agency and my basic recommendations have been the get the 67H ready for the road Whelen package for marked units and keep Sync for hands free, etc. With the 2020 offering hands...
I noticed this in the latest Order Guide for the PIU (6/24):
54E 12.1” Integrated Computer Screen • Includes 12.1” touchscreen display in center stack and allows for operation of laptop in remote location to free up cabin space in front passenger area • Includes Audio Video Extender (AVX)...
