The A/C problem is going to be tough to nail down, it's very inconsistent. I've been trying to figure out a pattern but I'm not seeing one.
The best I can describe the A/C is performing like a system that has a low charge. It will blow ice cold for a few seconds...then warmer air for a few seconds...then cold again. It does seem to be more prevalent during stop-and-go type driving vs steady cruise.
It is a noticeable change from the OEM tune, which could maintain a consistent temp coming out of the vents for the most part.

Thanks for answering my question it is great to know about these things, so i know how i use my key. I know when i cammed my LS1 cars, they needed more fuel at idle to achieve the same AFR.
what happens to idle trims when switching from lopey idle to cancelled lopey idle? Are there two different idle trims stored, or will it sway the stored data from what ever was previous?

There will be an updated calibration that will take care of the false codes for cats. The cats are not being damaged.
Please send me an email with full name, VIN and shipping address, when the new cal is released I wil make sure everyone receives it. Not everyone will see these codes but we want everyone to get the new cal to make sure you dont ever have these codes.
These engines are known for oil pullover through the passenger PCV and when that happens the octane is reduced. This is where the PING comes from. An oil seperator on the passenger side will get rid of the oil in the intake manifold.
My direct email is rherron9@ford.com
Thanks, Ray

He did say that he wanted everyone to get the update, cel or not. I'm more wondering how the key will get the new cal. For those with the procal, they only need a new memory card. But do the key folks have to go back to the dealer?

I am not answering for Ray however Ray did say this earlier:
"Please send me an email with full name, VIN and shipping address, when the new cal is released I wil make sure everyone receives it. Not everyone will see these codes but we want everyone to get the new cal to make sure you dont ever have these codes."
With that said; I wonder if we will have to pay our dealer another hour+ shop time to install the upgrade?

Ray, would it be OK if I cut and paste this to a few of the other forums? I don't want to flood your email with BS by any means. Let me know. I can go about it however you want, maybe just a link to this thread or just summarize the fact that FRPP is working on a fix? Lots of discussion about this going on elsewhere at the moment.

Sure that would be no problem.
Nobody will have to go back to the Ford Dealer to update this.
