If you need to wick it up, run the warranty for a couple of years first,they`ll ping the software and see the tune as soon as you grab a coffee in the waiting room.When theres a Turbo on a tilt tray with its tailshaft in the back seat, the laptop is ready to go.
You nare 100% correct Jixel. Had the zf serviced by a ford dealer , no oil leak before, now i have 6 different spots where the car sat while away on holidays (10 days ). iS IT A STUPID ISSUE YES , AM I LUAGHING NO. Please reccomend a fdealer that will do the job right the FIRST time I'm sure a lot of people here would like to know!
Why did I take it to a ford dealer you ask? The ETC light kept engaging and limp home mode was the end result. At this point I like many others of the holley and extractor era thought oh well this is way out of the home/loccal mech league YOU NEED FORD KNOWLEDGE AND EQUIPMENT !! $1300 dollars later it's de juvu + oil leak.
Before you go off about mods and being flogged the vehihcle is as it left the factory and the diagnosis for the etc was a new accellarator incorporating throttle sensor
