Strange change to startup sounds after update fix

[stevenschwartz]

As I posted a few weeks ago, my 23 Mache GT was not getting OTA updates. Took it to dealer today, and they said it is a known problem and they say they fixed it.

Here is my odd change. We all have a percussion "jingle" when we start up. I have noticed in a loaner in the past that the sounds were much slower. Gone from allegro to lento. After the fix my jingle is now slow. Not a huge big deal but I liked the other way. No idea why this changed, but anyone know if there is a way to fix this?

The video clip you posted sounds exactly like mine.

Confused - I didn't post a video.

Exactly, we are all confused without hearing the sound.

Ah, I'll record it later. Unfortunately I do not have the original zippier version recorded. No matter what it sounds like it is quite different.

In 3.5 yrs one of the indications that I am getting an OTA (downloading in the background) or just gotten one is that my start up sounds will sound janky for a bit. It becomes louder and more blunt, basically like a 1980s sound byte vs a modern one.

Just post what you have now.

Ok folks, here is a brief video. Used to be exactly the same buy 2-3 times faster.

This is exactly what my '24 Premium sounds like, and always has......

Buckle your seat belt and you can skip it completely.

Sounds completely normal to me on my 23.5 Premium. The only time the sound might have been different for me was when I was doing updates via FDRS. As mentioned though, that chime is for your seat belt not being clipped together.

Ford increased the cadence of the seatbelt chime in 2023, apparently they rolled back that change to the previous slower cadence.

OK, that makes me feel a whole lot better. I knew I wasn't hallucinating.
