2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

SCT told me that my strategy code was for a '90's Town Car or something like that and they didn't have my strategy code listed for my car.  Guess Ford re-uses the codes.

Brad had me trying a program written for a different strategy code since mine was an oddball and my car doesn't run so great.

Guess the factory program is luck of the draw.

Seriously doubt that you'd see this kind of variance in a Honda.

Weird. I got the same strategy. Just updated to it. I believe our cars were made around the same time. I will have to double check when I get home.

Brad always compares our cars. He has brought you up more than a couple times with similar problems and such. Do you by chance know what your old strategy was before you updated?

When I took it to the dealer to get updated, they had never seen that strategy code. It took SEVERAL updates to get the car to take the latest one for my ECU... the service writer was curious if I knew the history of my car...

So we made the same jump. That was what I was running until in got updated a few days ago. Dealership didn't mention anything weird about it. I just mentioned to them that I figured it was the same one from the factory considering my SYNC was still on the update from the factory.

Very interesting! Then unless there is something else I am missing we should be dealing with the same weird crap.

We will know when I get my new revision loaded tonight and tested tomorrow. Praying for no rain tomorrow morning. When I get home, got to put back the 3 bar back on and reinstall the MDesign. Got me looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

According to my VIN, I believe it is DEC 2010 but I will have to check that sticker when I get home. From seeing the SYNC and strategy code that were still on it when I found the car, I believe it was early.
