Thank you for proving my point. It has EVERYTHING to do with the body shop.
"Or OEM Surplus parts as described on the estimate"
If the bodyshop writes up the estimate with OEM parts...surplus or not, that is what get put on the car. Your body shop just has to have the stones and experience...
THAT os on your body shop. My body shop won't use non OEM parts. A good body shop can back up why OEM is better. Many crappy shops or worse dealers are just in it for the labor and move. A good body shop takes pride in their work and won't let a customer drive a car not prepared properly.
as others have said...do a back up of your as built settings
commit 1 change at a time...test it....then move on to the other changes.
if you screw something up, you can easily back out that change when doing 1 at a time. vs trying to figure out Wich change messed things up if you do multiple...
I am an aug 18 build so it is weird.
Had low fuel pressure code 1x, not had it since they did the service. very weird. just hoping it is 100% good for a while.
I will say this.... my 2018 at 44,000 miles was CF problem free. In December 2021, I had the mandatory software update performed, and by march of 2022, I got my first CF rattle. then week by week it started to get worse. by aug 2021, every cold start of 8+ hours was full blown CF Rattle.
I...
can you afford a $4k repair out of pocket...just a matter of time
I will add.... my 2018 had no CF sounds at 44k miles. then I did the mandatory software update. shortly after that, I started to get the CF rattle. I am convinced I would have been fine if I did not do the update.
my CF were...
the problem is.....all those names are just marketing. they contribute very little to actual design and improvements. regardless of the name on the system, it is ford designers and been counters keeping the quality down.
if speaker design is done correctly...you should never be able to "localize" where sound is coming from. The ceiling speakers are just "fill".
the B&O systems actually sounds pretty good at low to medium volume levels. Just trust it for what it is. Where B&O falls on it's face is when you...
because the search function is your friend. The B&O system is 4+ years old now, and there are at least 20 threads where all of this has been explained. Make a little effort to educate yourself, then as questions. Apologies if I am old and salty.
I did 5 wheel rotations every 5,000-8,000 miles, my tires were loud as hell at 46,000 miles and had some tread left, but the noise was why I replaced them
The estimated range is a rolling average of your last 40 miles or so. Come off the highway after 100+ miles and your DTE will be 525+ at fill up. In town 0-60 runs or off road in your last 40 miles, and your DTE will be 475 at fill up.
Depending on your driving, you will see the DTE drop...
the zen eliminates the B&O tuning that removes bass from every channel including the sub.
The LC2i just "boosts" base trying to replace what was removed by the B&O. You lose all music fidelity, and to anyone who knows the difference, it sounds like complete garbage.
Add to that, now you BASS...
the consensus is drive them until you notice your ride start to suffer, then act.
My 2018 with 48,000 miles is the same...95% street queen with 3-4 light to moderate off-road trips totally less then 15 miles.
Do it all, or don't waste your money. You can't upgrade the B&O systems, only replace it.

Took me 6 weeks to get an appointment for Cam Phazer fix. Called in August for October appointment. Then, my truck sat un touched for 7 days before they did the fix.
