you tube's fordbossme suggest letting engine idle until it settles (drops RPM's) before driving. I have been doinfg that for years anyway.

I notice a slight whine when driving my 23 with 2.7 but my 2004 has always had a similar whine as does the 20 model XLT I drive at work.

That's for semi synthetic. For 2 to 3 dollars more I can get full synthetic Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. I've always used Motorcraft in my 2004 F150 4.6. 179K and no issues but for the difference in cost I'll go full synthetic for my turbo engines. If it was 5 or 6 bucks more I'd probably go with...

the ones on my truck are still doing good. I recently replaced the ones on my wife's 2017 and my 2018 Explorer's and went with Bosch. Paid a little more but after having them they are worth the few dollars more in price.

I went with stick on for my 23 . I had them on my 04 F150 and on wife's 2017 and my 2018 Explorers. No complaints. Easy install and have held up well. Wife goes through car wash and they've held well. I'd read of issues with window going up and down which I know can be adjusted. I just didn't...

latex for me. hold down my hunting and camping gear

take back and have them fix. if it's under 3 years old and 36K the bumper to bumper warranty should cove it.
