  1. Sporadic Warning Beep When Putting in Reverse

    I have a weird situation that is extremely erractic. I back into my garage. I’d say once or twice a week when I stop in front of my house and put the truck in reverse I get a dash warning balllllinnngg. Balllliinnnngg. Sounds almost like I don’t know, a seatbelt warning? A door open warning...
  2. Factory battery ongoing issues

    Used to be in a similar boat. I'm not sure "low bid wins" applied for us necessarily but we had an annual cost-reduction goal just to be able to continue to be a supplier. Here's the stupidity of this strategy, however... We would make efficiency improvements, production changes, supplier...
  3. Factory battery ongoing issues

    I think I've actually been told over the years at this point a weak 12V battery can even cause issues with transmissions not shifting as smoothly. I know some cars have moved to a 48V system. I don't know how much of that has to do with fuel economy savings (start-stop, keeping A/C running...
  4. Strange engine rattle on cold start

    Sometimes it is so hard to tell noises on videos. It could be wastegate rattle. However, I along with others I've seen on various forums with Powerboosts, have a metallic heat-shield-sounding rattle at around 1300-1800 rpms (mine seems to be 1300, then silent, then returns at 1800). I took...
  5. How much is Ford spying on us?

    I've turned off everything in Sync except 2 options that still enable the Ford App to communicate with the truck. If I remember I'll get a pic and share what I've got on/off....
  6. A Coyote can sip fuel!

    I rented a V8 F150 before I bought my truck and was pleasantly surprised by the mileage it averaged in suburban driving. Powerboost V8.... that does sound pretty good to me. I wonder if its even possible? Space requirements? I would have gone Coyote if I didn't need the Pro Power On Board...
  7. Brake Pedal Noise clicking

    OK finally had a chance to listen to the videos. The 2nd one is very clear to me and yes that is the exact clicking on mine. I'd say if under 16mph or so and the clicking stops then you probably will know it is normal.
  8. Another Q…is there fake exhaust sound pumped into PB?

    My feeling is that it is not turned on. Unless they did such a good job I'm fooled into thinking I'm hearing the engine.
  9. External Side Mirror Jiggle?

    I know this is somewhat minor but at night when your truck puddle lights are on (the lights on the external mirrors), do your lights / mirrors jiggle when you open or close the door? I notice some shaking of the light when I close my driver's door but my passenger door does not jiggle. Just...
  10. HVAC Auto Climate Control too Hot

    419F in cabin temp. Dang, your feet are definitely gonna be sweaty... But yeah that seems off... Still would say I don't think mine is "defective".... its just doesn't stay consistent. Cold mornings I set 62-63. Eventually I get OK warm, but then I have to turn it up to 65-67. If I just...
  11. Loose Sun Visors 2023 Lariat

    Pull down the headliner?? Boy, I'm not sure I'd do that. I'll have to investigate further or ask dealer sometime. Little surprised I haven't seen more discussions on this anywhere. Being that it is both sides its not something I'd think was just a 1-2 trucks.
  12. Brake Pedal Noise clicking

    I can’t listen to your videos right now but my truck does a single click with every brake press any time above, I think, 16mph. Below 16mph there is no click. Above, always. If I pump the brake pedal I get a click with every press. Had it at the dealership and they had me take another...
  13. Should I have Rear Leaf Spacer Blocks?

    I’m not familiar with this. Do people add or remove them? Why do that?
  14. Loose Sun Visors 2023 Lariat

    Let’s see if I can upload a video….
  15. Loose Sun Visors 2023 Lariat

    Googled as I just noticed this on my 2023 XLT. Both sides. Hoping I can just tighten something…
  16. Factory battery ongoing issues

    I had the 12V battery issue late January or early Feb 2024. Dealer did a quick test on it and it passed. They then had the truck about 2 hours, ran a "rotunda" test, according to the work order, the 12V battery failed that extended test, replaced with a new battery under warranty. So I'm at...
  17. Vibration/rattling from behind glove box

    Figured I'd share my experience in the event it helps others. I had a very bad rattle the day I drove the truck off the lot. The dealer found that one and put some foam under the window weatherstripping. I added a little more of my own felt in the same area because when pushing on the...
  18. Clanking/rattling when revving or starting engine

    Thanks for the update. I have not tackled this since last posting here. Hoping now that we're in spring I won't have as cold of a garage and can more comfortably go under the truck. To help diagnose, if I go under the truck and do some tapping, can I hear the heat exchanger rattle? Or if I...
  19. Vibration/rattling from behind glove box

    If you have instructions how to disassemble that upper box that would be much appreciated. Is the BCM up under the dash on the passenger footwell?
