  1. I have a 2017 SEL AWD 3.5L and want to change the fuel filter, where is it? I know Ford likes the lifetime in tank filters but I could have sworn I read the Gen 2's have inline filters but had it on the lift and can't find it.  Even 3 different part stores have a listing for my make and model. 

     

       Anybody have and idea if they even have one and if so where? Pics or diagrams would help

     

    thanks

    The fuse box does look like a spine twister until you realize....ta daaaaa...you can remove the change (or whatever you put in there) drawer.  Pull that out and you're looking right at the fuse panel.  At that point it's pretty simple just to reach up under the dash while you're looking through that opening to insert/remove fuses/fuse taps. 

     

    I figured the hard part for your installer was getting the delay box installed in your glove box and routing cable to it from power/camera.

     

    Cheers!

    how do you get that change drawer out LOL

    That and torque management but just heads up there is still advantages to running the higher octane. Besides power it does get better fuel efficiency. Also these DI engines get build up on back of intake valves and the higher the octane the cleaner it will burn. So on a motor that is port injected it would spray fuel through the valve keeping them cleaner. Now it is direct injection and only air passes through valve which leads to carbon build up. So we still suggest running higher octane fuel. And yes some people drive harder with a tune so gas mileage goes out the window.

    You still haven't replied on how much boost your tune is making. I believe this was the 3rd time asked

  4. I tapped in from the fuse box under the steering wheel with a save-a-fuse. Hardest part was getting the fuse out and back in, it is a bugger to get to. I think it was F22 or F26. Accessory fuse anyway. I poked around in the mirror area and could not find anything useful to tap into. Mine was for a dashcam BTW.

    these work good

  5. how much of a hit do you take for opting out of a ESP plan? Just bought a used 2017 SEL edge Friday and got talked into a plan (my bad I know better) 5/60k for $2500. The car has 21.500 on it. After looking at these numbers on this thread I feel I got hosed and want to cancel, I know I can cancel anytime (that's what the sales rep said at least) but how will I take a beating and is there a grace period to back out? Would it change my monthly payment or just the final numbers thanks

     

    Edit: forgot to mention it was the Premium ESP bumper to bumper
