Mustang Coding

Is it possible to code the mustang with the OBD2 port? I have one that I use to code my BMWs - but I cannot find any info on Mustang coding. I would love to change some settings.

You need Ford-VCM, and right now it only runs on Windows XP.
I got mine on wish.com, the cable and software. I have run it on
Windows 10, it won't see the COM port for the cable, so when I get
the chance, I will install a VM and run WinXP on that, and see if it
works.

It's nothing like BMW, VW, or AUDI's software, with all the modules you can
code, it's not as extravagant.

I did not see anything there for cars beyond 2013.

Not sure to what level of coding/programming you're looking at doing but there's Forscan as well (forscan.org) It's more comparable to VW VCDS (formerly Vagcom) so not sure if it's exactly what you are looking for.

VW still has their VagCom.

Rosstech is VCDS, they were told to STOP using VagCom.

I will try the Forscan for Windows, I have an ELM327 adapter, BT and WIFI.
