  1. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    You still getting this sound on yours?
  2. Soot in exhaust condensate?

    Coming back for an update for anyone who might be dealing with the same. I finally got my service manager to escalate this and he looped in a "regional ford technician". The ford tech recommend a PCM re-calibration a few "aggressive" runs up to highway speed to burn off the soot in the system...
  3. Heated Steering Wheels Are Back?

    The heated steering wheel and ventilated seats are the things I miss most about my 2017 Silverado LTZ. Cold/warm weather first world problems but boy, do I miss them.
  4. Lane centering- off center?

    Same boat - it's nice on a 2 way road, but can be a pain on the interstate because it constantly hugs the right stripe.
  5. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    I've done a bit of digging and can't find any forum posts or videos showing a similar noise out of a transmission. I'm hoping someone here can either call BS or tell me to stop worrying because it's a normal sound.
  6. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    After a little over a week, official word is that it’s a solenoid making the noise. The service Forman drove it and said the solenoid is loud but apparently not a cause for concern. a little bummed but all I can do is take their word for it. It’s the 3rd dealer I’ve seen. Grateful they...
  7. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    Definitely coincides with the gear indicator (you can tell if you look/listen closely at the second half of my video). I notice it most when pulling out of my neighborhood, but it also happens around town in parking lots, etc
  8. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    Thank you! I've sent you a message with details.
  9. 2021 5.0 10 speed transmission - what is this sound?

    When shifting between 1-2-3-4th gears at low speeds, I've started to notice a slight "crunch" sound coming from the outside of the truck. This is different from the typical "clunk" the 10 speed has always made. It started sometime around 10,500 miles I'm getting ready to schedule a trip to the...
  10. 5.0 idle sounds?

    sweet. Any videos by chance? I’d love to do something like this on mine.
  11. Anyone drive their 5.0 consistently in Sport mode?

    This is the first vehicle I've had where the different drive modes make a meaningful difference in the drive feel. I notice a BIG difference when I put it in sport and lean into it. I also notice a mpg or 2 difference when I'm on long highway stretches and I put it in eco. Makes me feel good...
  12. 5.0 idle sounds?

    Ouch. Sorry to hear you had to go through all that to troubleshoot without any luck. Some replies in this thread have helped me learn to live with it (accept it). Appreciate the insight from everyone.
  13. Soot in exhaust condensate?

    Fantastic - thanks for the support! I've sent you a DM with my case number. Please let me know if I can answer any questions.
  14. Soot in exhaust condensate?

    This was before the weather turned. Temps were in the 60s and 70s when I noticed. Good call on winter gas. I'll check the coolant today. Could that cause the water to be so dark and dirty looking?
  15. Soot in exhaust condensate?

    probably true :) But then the dealer would have their "out" and be able to totally wash away any random issue by saying "have you ever had an ecoboost before?..."
  16. Soot in exhaust condensate?

    2021 5.0 with 11k miles. Noticed what I thought was an oil stain in my garage and noticed that there appears to be oily water / watery oil liquid dripping from several points between the engine and exhaust tip. Dealer says it is soot in the exhaust condensate. This happens on startup, when the...
  17. Topper availability?

    Do you have any other photos showing different perspectives? I've had a love/hate relationship looking for toppers over the years. Seems to be so much variation in how one topper brand/ model looks on each truck make/model/year/ color. I have a '21 black F150 and hoping to get a better idea of...
  18. Brakes Squeak Loudly When Reversing

    I have the same thing going on. Drives me nuts
  19. What did you NOT expect, but LOVE about your '21 F-150?

    2021 5.0 XLT here. Honestly, the gas mileage. I'm easily getting 20+MPG on the highway (21-23 range). Came from a 2017 Silverado 6.2. That was a bit of a dog on mileage - getting 18MPG was a miracle. Spent a week driving around Yellowstone (45-55 MPH), about 600 miles. Had over 26MPG for that...
  20. Active Air Dam Issue

    Same issue here. Stuck in the open position. I had to send my service tech the ford advertising materials and a youtube video showing the active air dam to prove it moved. He insisted that it was not a movable part and that they snapped it back into place (which I had already tried twice...
