just stumbled on this- had my 22 lariat 3.5 for 2 weeks, hate that the fake engine noise is so muted compared to my 19... wifes been driving the 19 lariat 3.5, I drove it tonight for first time in a couple weeks, love the sound of that 19...this 22 sounds like my 2nd oldest sons 19 XLT, and I hate it...stupid as it seems, the v8 sound of the 19 makes that truck a absolute ball to drive...my oldest son also had a 19 XLT - he turned in his lease and bought a 19 lariat like mine, mostly because it 'felt stronger' due to the sound... anyone know what module does the active noise cancellation and the fake engine noise? wondering if I can get a 19 module and put in the 22- its a great truck, but man do I hate the sound of it...the 3.5 is a noisy motor in real life, but runs so great...when it sounds the part, its the best driving experience ive ever known... for some reason, the 22 lariat sound profile is zero unless about 1/4 throttle, in normal driving, its the bare piston slapping v6 racket, where the 19, it sounds like a V8 all the time- plus the noise supression is more effective at filtering out the real sounds...the 22 has noticably less wind noise on the highway, but aside from that, the 22 is noisier than the 19 by far... hitting a puddle the 22 sounds like a pressure washer under the floor-the 19 you dont hear that at all- but the 19 also has retractable boards that might keep splash from hitting floor directly- the 22 in space white or race red and sport pkg, couldnt be ordered with retractables for some reason...Apparently from reading up after making my comment, seems @ROBB1 has commented a while back saying the following needs to be changed, to another member for engine audio enhancement (fake engine noise):
ACM: 727-04-01 xxxx **xx xx
01 is the 3.5l ecoboost
00 is the V8 (no enhancement)
07 is the 2.7l ecoboost
Wanted to see if someone actually did this yet and if the above are the correct values?
anyways, are any available sound profiles same as a 19, or anyone know what module would need swapped to get it?
