Just rang CAPA and they advised if I put the Ford program in (which I did) then no problems. Just put back the custom tune and go for it.

Ford will then know it has been flashed because they know the last tune was the overboost flash, yet the car does not have that tune now. New tune + old tune = Edit Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21059-warranty/page/3/#findComment-310863 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be a problem with all, but they may have issued a recall so all cars can be checked over time.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>FUnny that, mines a Feb 05, same squeeky passenger seat! they fixed it at the 3K service...

rdomain Member 98 Member For: 20y 28d Posted 02/11/05 07:05 AM Share Posted 02/11/05 07:05 AM mmm, that's a bugger. I was just thinking of finally taking the plunge and getting the edit. I'll have to reconsider at this stage as my ute isn't even a year old yet. I'm only thinking of warranty issues. I thought the edit would've stored whatever 'factory tune' is in the car at that time to the factory tune slot. Unfortunately not. I sooooo want an edit... might have to do some other mods to start with Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21059-warranty/page/3/#findComment-310976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow.....most dealers are pretty good so it should be right I guess.
