I have several f150's. One is a 2022 platinum. For factory level service I use fdrs and a mongoose cable.
On my 2016 and 2011 what is the factory service equivalent?
I have used forscan but it's limited even on the 2022 compared to fdrs.

I think pre-2018(?), you'd be using IDS instead of FDRS.

Not familiar with using IDS, but you can get license for it on the same website you buy FDRS license. From what I recall it does cost more.

I know it is possible to update older generations with it because I had a few updates installed under warranty on my 2011. The major one for Gen12 was the software fix for transmission lead frame failure that was force shifting some trucks into first gear on interstates.
