08-09 F: highly recommend doing zero point calibration
Since we don't have a mechanical diff, the system thinks you are over steering if you had a major alignment done. My TCS would always kick in on the slightest slowest turn onto a street out of my neighborhood. And would also kick in at launch while just leafing the throttle, even slapping on 285s in the back. Well I just did the ZPC and now it doesn't kick in on the same turn out of my neighborhood like it would always do and I did a couple of launches and TCS didn't kick in until shifting from 1st to 2nd. I have been dealing with this fir the longest time

how do you go about doing a zero point calibration?

Techstream is the way to go... but if u can't get to one of those, google "zero point calibration"... supposedly there is a manual way by shorting out the TS and CG pins... I didn't research any further about it and not sure how year specific it is so use at your own risk...

But dealership services are expensive... and having the resources of this great forum can draw back that cost greatly... but i do agree peace of mind but i only went to the dealership when i was under warranty just to keep record everything was done at the dealership in case any warranty issues did arrive... and even still i brought in all my own parts/oil and just paid for labor to save money on the marked up parts prices...

You have a 2010 so really doesn't apply to your F...
