  1. Rear axle Squeaking noise 2022 PowerBoost

    For those of us plagued by the axle issue - what's the best way to do this? Is there a specific (plastic) tool, or YT video you'd suggest? It seems like keeping the caps off and routinely confirming the bolts are still there is probably the best way to know if the problem has repeated after...
  2. Purchasing Extended Warranty

    on the topic of ESP - does anyone have any experience buying one in California after the ban on out of state ESPs went into effect?
  3. Mechanical Clicking Noises From Drivetrain (PowerBoost)

    Similar experience - outlined it here - it's most likely related to the well documented axle recall issue.
  4. 2022 F150 Rear Axle exploded... Ford tech said "3rd one this week"

    I'm having an issue with the axle making a clicking sound (outlined on yet another axle thread ). Technician mentioned splines might be making the noise. Curious if the original poster had any warning before the incident, specifically with noises? Since we tow with our truck, this thread makes...
  5. Well I was hoping it wasn’t going to be me

    Update on the update: So they tightened the brake calipers but the clicking sound was still happening. Maybe it had even gotten worse? Brought it back in to service. It seemed (to me) related to the braking, but in reality it was the axle. With the brake engaged and shifting from...
  6. Well I was hoping it wasn’t going to be me

    To follow up on this, I brought it in to be checked out and it was loose caliper that was making the clicking sound, related to the axle recall work. So heads up if / when you get the recall done.
  7. Well I was hoping it wasn’t going to be me

    I had the recall work done (only took a week to get the parts), but afterwards I notice at lower speeds when applying and releasing brakes there's a clicking sound, "click-click" slightly metallic. It doesn't seem to affect actual braking ability. Wondering if anyone else whose had the recall...
  8. "Bong" Type Chime When Towing

    Thanks for this thread, I have had the truck for 2 years and could never figure this out. It seems deeply flawed to have a chime and then no indication on either screen why it chimed? If the nav is open will it show what's causing it. When it chimes for "school zone" it pops up a message on the...
  9. Hot Showers using a PowerBoost

    Found this thread after camping, wondering if a product existed. Related, want a small 120v pump / washbasin product for washing camp dishes. The desired product would be this 120v water heater / pump box plugged into the Powerboost, with a tube to the aquatainer. And then it feeds to a fold out...
  10. BlueCruise 1.2 installed in F-150 -- review & hands-free driving video

    I have a 2021 and had BC from when it was first released, and have used it quite a bit - this looks like a big improvement. I don't know if I'd re-subscribe for 3 years, between not knowing if I'm going to keep the car for that long and also seeing if theres a much better version out there that...
  11. Remind me what the extended warranty sweet spot is? 100k/7 years?

    have a Lariat and selecting Premium over Extracare is probably necessary - when I think about what could go wrong, it's many "high tech" category things that could be costly (power mirrors with cameras, power steering wheel position, power tailgate, camera in tailgate, Bluecruise, trailer towing...
  12. Got Power-Up 3.5.4 Update: Advanced Dual Phone, Payload Limit Warning

    yeah, the reliability of it showing up every time is the most important factor, as Maps is heavily used. One factor is I have it using Bluetooth/wireless Carplay, whereas before only USB. But one time this happened Carplay was in use, seemed to crash and then would not start until the car was...
  13. Got Power-Up 3.5.4 Update: Advanced Dual Phone, Payload Limit Warning

    I have a 2021, full size Carplay is nice, though since the upgrades I've had a few times where CP doesn't connect. Tried deleting the phone and starting over, but seemed had to restart the car to get it to work.
  14. Thinking about removing the Powerboost emblems

    Thinking of doing this because of the catalytic converter issue, the reports in my area are constant (though mostly Toyota), feel like it's only a matter of time before PB get's on the radar. @PBXL 's end result photo looks perfect, wondering if anyone else has done it, have Goof Off, anyone...
  15. Spotify vs. Apple Music via USB Connection with B&O

    A few questions about the comparison: -is the engine running ? -both apps have equalizer settings, should they be off or flat or...? I use both and outside of the actual audio quality in engine off/windows up carefully listening mindeset, I have an issue where the audio breaks up when...
  16. '21 Lariat red dash and door panels replacement?

    Chevy Caprice, 1989
  17. '21 Lariat red dash and door panels replacement?

    have the same carbon grey, black interior with … burgundy leather highlights. I didn’t custom build this one and last year it was “be lucky you got any truck” era, but it’s odd if people are looking for the “greyed out” (vs. murdered out) look and to get a bit of 70s station wagon thrown in the mix.
  18. Blue Cruise Not allowing hands free

    I've been using BC for a year, pretty much without issue. This weekend I tried it and I get an error "Driver monitor camera is blocked See manual". Manual says "Make sure your hands, arms or other objects are not obscuring the camera." Nothing has changed in how I'm sitting or position, I wiped...
  19. Poor bluetooth phone quality? With bluetooth Carplay

    I’m trying to diagnose an annoying CarPlay issue, not sure if it’s related to those in this post - audio breaks up / cracks. Audio is either the Apple music apple, podcast app and I think even driving directions VO. Audio quality is good otherwise, it’s not a constant issue so it’s not bad...
  20. Used PowerBoost's Pro Power during Hurricane Ian blackout

    @Snakebitten, not sure if you recall my post from the RV thread, but I experienced the "engine stays on and burns a ton of fuel" with Propower. I suspected it was related to having the vehicle in a 4x4 mode.
