    All this nonsense, IMHO designed to stop the Saturday afternoon oil change in your driveway.

    Agreed...buy a $65,000 dollar truck and have to replace the drain plug...oh, and don't forget a dongle to eliminate the annoying Stop/Start feature.

    They are annoying as heck. Luckily the M2 stays disabled once you turn it off. The Tiguan has to be turned off every time I start it up. I plan on coding this shit out.

    I have an old Mastercraft lawnmower with a 4hp Tecumseh engine.
    It has a plastic oil drain plug that never leaks a drop so far.
    There is no gasket on it.

    It seems like this was a change in the gen 3 coyote (18 MY+) cars and trucks. Hard to believe that with all the engineers on staff no one thought that this was a bad idea.

    Way to give customers a sour after sale experience Ford...so ridiculous

    What about Ford making clutch quadrants out of plastic.
    Another bad idea.
