I did two oil changes before adding a Fumoto value. I generally add the Fumoto valve to to our vehicles anyway, so I was already planning to do so with our F150. The first oil change, I left the filter on, and the oil fill cap on. I removed the oil drain plug and the hole in the Talon skid...
I used ECO mode exclusively for about a year and then I have been using Normal mode for a few months now. As others have said, it changes the shift points a little, makes the accelerator less responsive, and makes the cruise control less aggressive. In my Powerboost, ECO mode makes it easier...
I recently noticed that selecting the auto feature for the HVAC seemed to cause mine not to go into electric mode. I don't normally use auto. I tried it twice this weekend and both times caused it to not go into electric mode. Maybe if I had left it on auto for a period of time, it would...
Before you have tint installed that is 20 or below, you should ask to see it at night and make sure you are happy with the visibility. I brought a black Nissan Frontier with dark tinted windows (I don't know the percent, but it was certainly higher than 5%). Visibility out the side windows was...
My 2022 has done the same thing twice in the time that I have had it. Both times, I shut off the truck, and turned it back on and the AC worked as expected. I do have an HVAC module firmware update pending, so I'm hoping that the update will eliminate this issue going forward. I suspect the...
I would definitely make a request in the Request VIN Lookup Thread to have someone give you an OTA history and module update status report. The guys in that thread are awesome.
I'm sorry to hear you lost your fob. I put a plastic cap on my rear bumper that is about the same size as a fob, forgot it, and lost it within about 3 miles of my house on a quiet two-lane road. I drove that stretch 6 times and never found it. Based on my experience, I can easily see how you...
As someone who has been to all of the places you listed a number of times, I don't think you will be disappointed in any of them. Mt. Rushmore is wonderful and I tend to enjoy it more than I expected. They have added a number of short trails, so you can get away from the crowds to some...
I'm sensitive to any vibration in the steering wheel. On certain vehicles we have owned, Michelin was the only brand of tire we tried that consistently eliminated all detectable vibration. The Michelin's we have owned have all been great.
Not the same truck or engine, but I had a Dodge Dakota (almost new) overheat to the point where it shut off by the time I was able to pull over. The temperature needle was pegged in the red zone. This was due to the radiator cap not being fully seated. I drove it for another 150K miles.
When you take delivery from Granger, they will pull any PCO's or other offers that apply at the time of delivery or any offers that applied when you ordered, and you get the best deal. I received additional discounts that I wasn't aware of plus the discounts I was expecting. Granger and Ford...
There are certainly going to be people that don't agree with FordTechMakuloco nor will they agree with each other. I do think FordTechMakuloco videos are generally very good.
I like looking at cars and doing the research, but I hate the typical car buying experience. I'm the kind of person that really pushes for a good deal and hates every minute of it. My experience with Granger was much different. Granger was like having a nice dinner at a quiet restaurant while...
Thank you for this great information. Could you please describe how you connected and routed the power and ground. Did you use the passenger side grommet through the firewall (hopefully that is the correct term)? If so, how did you route the cable(s) from the grommet through the inside of the...
When driving while it is snowing, I get this a lot. If there is too much rain, snow, built up slush, etc., it will limit the effectiveness of the sensors and you will get the warning. We get a similar warning on two other vehicles we have that are a different brand, so it is not uncommon or...
Another individual on this forum mentioned that the dealership quoted him at about $1,600 to replace the APIM. A good dealer could have and would have fixed your issue under warranty. There are many people on this forum who have had it corrected. Obviously, the initial issue is Ford's fault...
