  1. New tire purchase - lessons learned

    I bought new tires at a major national chain recently and want to share my experience and some lessons learned. The intent of this post is to educate and prepare other consumers and auto enthusiasts, not to throw anyone under the bus. The company took care of me after I escalated the issue to...
  2. DTC U0554-00 "Invalid Data Received From APIM"

    Discovered this DTC just now when using the OBDLink app to check my battery SOC. This DTC was not there 2 days ago and everything seems to be working fine on the screen. Anyone have any experience or knowledge about this to share? I was sent PowerUp 3.5.3 on 1/24 but it's been stuck every...
  3. Truck sent but won't download OTA PowerUp 3.5.3

    Got my VIN checked through the "Request VIN Lookup Thread" and was informed my truck was sent PowerUp 3.5.3 on Tues 1/24 and since then has been stuck at "Update Downloading" of file #4, a very small 602KB file, of the package. @rugedraw said he's seeing several other trucks stuck at this point...
  4. Transmission 3rd gear slipping

  5. Ok to connect truck to a 12V power supply for OTA installs?

    Like many others, my truck received Power-Up 3.5.2 almost two months ago and nothing since. In anticipation/preparation for the MASSIVE OTA Power-Up 3.5.3, I've been connecting a Noco Genius 10 up to the battery/terminals on the truck using the 12V POWER SUPPLY mode overnight lately. I'm doing...
  6. New feature suggestion: haptic feedback with fob

    It would be nice if the fob vibrated to let you know you locked the truck vs honk the horn. I know the fob can receive from the truck (the green light indicating remote start worked), so adding a little haptic vibration to the key fob would be nice. Do any other brands/models do this? Could...
  7. Leaf spring creak over 12-18" water bars - is this normal?

    Hi all, did a little light offroading over the weekend and noticed quite a bit of creaking in the rear end especially over off-camber 12-18" high water bars which caused the rear suspension to articulate quite a bit. Tried in 2WD and 4WD high and low and no change, so not related to drivetrain...

    Was just curious so pulled a sample during truck's 2nd oil/filter change at 7,857 miles on the engine and 4,871 miles on the oil. 1st oil/filter change was at 3,000 miles with Motorcraft 5W30 Blend and Motorcraft FL-500S. So far so good. Will stick with 5-6k oil change interval and the same oil...
  9. Android Auto random disconnects and reconnects

    Android Auto randomly disconnects then immediately reconnects multiple times. No rhyme or reason I can figure out why/when/where it drops connection. Sometimes works fine for an hour, other times drops and reconnects twice in a minute. Didn't touch a single thing. Biggest annoyance is I'm...

  12. ML3Z17696BA Trailer Tow Mirrors w/BLIS but w/o Cameras have puddle and spot lights?

    Working with my dealer to order the right Trailer Tow Mirrors and am confused about tow mirror functions. My OEM mirrors have heat, signals, puddle lights, flood lights, BLIS. No cameras or auto fold. I want to ensure my tow mirrors have the same functions, specifically the puddle and flood...
