Is everyone sure that even in N, applying the brake pedal is only using friction braking..? Is it possible that in N, gently applying brake pedal still uses regen braking first? And that this use of regen braking is irrespective of 1-pedal or 2-pedal modes? Forgive my ignorance, I'm not even...

Ha, no -- it's spec'd higher, but I recall seeing it hit 9ish.

Thanks for the tip! But the charge port is pretty squeaky clean (it was already replaced earlier this year) and the only thing wrong with the J1772 (which was also replaced last year) is the hose covering comes off --a cosmetic issue that I tried to remediate, which is why it LOOKS rough. It...

Getting back to the slow charging on L2... This thread discusses the OTA software patch that limits charge based on charge port temperature... https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/ssm-51866-overheated-charge-port-dtc-p0e5f-stored-in-the-sobdm.29967/ ... to diminish the amount of charge port...

Just a quick note to anyone who did downgrade their Google app to allow voice commands on Android Auto. The latest update today to the Google app (14.34.23.29) restored voice command functionality for me in Android Auto. For now.

Possibly AA as well but I was referring to the Google app itself for downgrading. Check out the Reddit thread I referenced, as users there have been successful with the workaround.

Bug's likely due to a software update to the Google app that's integrated into Android Auto. Workaround is to downgrade (uninstall the latest updates... yes, possibly plural) to the Google app in Play and untick enable auto updates. Unfortunately, it appears that only Google can solve their...

I already had my charge port replaced once (due to overheating, probably, as I observed that the hosel of my charger was damn hot right before the port failed). The parallel between the HVBJB "fix" and the charge port "fix" is completely and unambiguously equivalent: a software bandaid that...

Fully concur with the shenanigans comment. This "update" would seem to kill level 2 charging at greater than 32A for whoever has a charge port that can overheat... and that could be anyone from a tiny few owners to, well, everyone. (Sucks if you bought the fancy Ford charger that can do 48A...

Forgive me if this has been posted already, but aside from notifications, is there any way to tell if 4.2.6 (or its FDRS equivalents) has been installed by looking at 'About SYNC' in the vehicle?

Under a full moon, after sprinkling salt over my shoulder...and then doing the hokey-pokey all around the vehicle! I heard clicks when I press the lock button, but it was when I shut the driver door that locks audibly engaged, plus the short honk of lock confirmation.

After failing to install after 10 tries, I took it to the dealership that I purchased it from. Told them the only precondition that possibly could cause 4.2.6 to fail installing was the failure of the 12v battery. They charged up the 12v battery, it passed their tests...and failed to install...

I know I'm asking for spoonfeeding here so it's making me cringe, but there's like a dozen car scanner apps on the Play store... Do you have a recommendation for any specific app (like which one you use)? Thanks!

4.2.6 has tried to install nearly a dozen times. Every everyday scenario imaginable. Plugged in to the home charger, not plugged in, driven for an hour beforehand, scheduled initiation, manual initiation... It always fails. Absolutely maddening. Now I'm wondering if the fact that the charge...

Credit where credit is due. My service advisor didn't bat an eye when I brought in the CSP-22B10 letter, and said reimbursement would take a week or two. What I didn't like is that he took my original receipt (he did offer to copy it, but I imaged it already) for the key fob purchase. At any...

I purchased a 2nd key fob for my FE almost immediately. According to Ford's letter, I can be reimbursed for the $280-ish purchase price (I have the original receipt) at the dealership. My only question is how this is going to play out operationally. Will the dealership refund the amount to my...

This. I would've gone with Wawanesa if they could bundle with home insurance. They couldn't, so I'm with Connect for Costco. (If you're USAA eligible, go there -- they're consistently rated as the best insurance company for service and price)

After being with AAA insurance for years, I flipped out when they gave me a nearly $3500 quote for a yearly premium (my Lexus rx450h F-sport was 1/3 of that) on a Mach-E. State Farm was even higher. Since I don't qualify for USAA, I ended up with the Costco-affiliated provider, Connect, for...

Anyone notice that their trips' efficiency numbers went completely haywire after the update? I've been averaging 3.5m/kwh since I've had the vehicle from Jan '21, according to months' long data on Trip 2. It suddenly went down to 2.8 without me resetting it. Trip 1, which is since the last...

Got the update installed at lunch. My battery % went from 43 to 35. Yay. (I'm trying to be a glass half-full kind of guy, but the glass keeps leaking)
