I have an ACTUAL solution using forscan.

I just had my front end rebuilt including LCAs. Shocker, my early build 2011 GT did not like that. Wicked shuddering. The solution after hours of playing around with forscan ended up being simple.

Go into the PSCM programming as built section using the forscan extended license and appropriate elm canbus to USB adapter.

You'll be presented with only 1 editable 4 digit box. Set the first 2 digits to 06. Then hit write. Forscan will automatically calculate the correct final digits during the writing phase.

That's it. It appears to disable the epas system altogether with zero warnings on the dash or unwanted behavior. I tried all the known values and none of them made a real difference. But 06 stopped all shudder under all circumstances.

No need to buy a new steering rack. No need to beg Ford to reflash when they won't. Just a free program, a $60 adapter, and 3 minutes of your time.

Hope this helps someone in the future!
