  1. CEL for misfire- stored code?

    Not sure. They cleared the codes and said call if it comes back. The app just said "misfire condition".
  2. CEL for misfire- stored code?

    Pretty much done with this truck. Under 15k miles and its most recent trip to the dealer took two weeks to replace a tailgate actuator. I picked it up and it had a CEL for a misfire???? It didnt have any CEL when I dropped it off. It seems to be running just fine. Any idea why it would misfire...
  3. 10r80 Transmission 100,000 Mile Service Performed (filter & fluid pics)

    I guess all those "totally normal" hard low speed shifts give us exactly the result that would be expected.
  4. Fuel efficiency gains (if any) by going with lighter aftermarket wheels and summer tires...

    Rotating mass is the single largest impact. Running the combination that is lightest and thinnest really is the goal. The stock 18s on the XLTs were pretty light and cheap.
  5. Traded in my 22' F-150 powerboost platinum for a 26' F-250 platinum with the 7.3 V8.

    Im shocked the mpgs are that close for you. Im hearing many with the 6.8 brother are getting like 22 if they try for it. I can get 24 or so out of a regular 3.5.
  6. New GM 5.7 V8, 5.3 being discontinued

    GM doesn't make a single good half ton engine today, so I wont give it too much attention. The 6.6 is great, but not that powerful and Id imagine the half ton application would be detuned, so idk where this is really going.
  7. Service Department Recommendations

    Piggybacking on this to ask the same question in the Phoenix AZ area, closer to Peoria the better. Sanderson Ford was about as bad as an experience as I've had so I'm trying my luck at Peoria Ford, but might try Bell Ford next. I'll be looking for one that puts new transmissions in based on...
  8. Vibration at 76-79 MPH that goes away above and below those speeds, 2025 Lariat Powerboost

    Same thing with mine at between 50-60ish. I think driveshaft balance? Its like an oscillating resonance.
  9. Rough shifting and jerky driving

    I, non pb, also have very jerky shifting intermittently through gears 1-6 with 1-4 being way more often. I have my parents truck as a reference and can say its not normal. Their truck, a normal 3.5, is luxury smooth.
  10. Pretty sure I need a new transmission after new shuddering issue

    Its hard to say. Its better than it was, but still kind of sucks. My parents 2023 is way better feeling. I actually have the truck at the dealer right now and they called to say theyre doing a software update on the trans. It still jerks and clunks generally when downshifting, but also...
  11. Hum/Rumble Noise in high gears - Any Help??

    They told me it was tire balancing and refused to look at the trans. I really think it is the trans. Tire balancing didnt do anything. When the replaced my trans fluid and valve body at like 8k miles, I thought it went away. Its back, but not anywhere as bad as it was for the first 8k miles. Its...
  12. Bed cam rarely works?

    I don't know that the camera is the issue, I think its software because it happens so intermittently. Either way, the dealer has the truck now. Apparently the expensiveass grainger warranty and factory warranty don't cover the paint failure. I also couldnt get the tailgate issue to replicate...
  13. I thought Space White was better than Oxford for peeling

    Idk. The flakes werent there literally yesterday. The adjuster came out like 3 or 4 days ago.
  14. I thought Space White was better than Oxford for peeling

    14000 miles on a 2 year old truck and found these two chips today. Going to march down to the dealer for a warranty repair on the bed camera, tailgate fault, and now this paint flaking off on the tailgate. This is problem #17 so far with this truck. I had 50k on a mazda cx30 and now 20k on a...
  15. Post Your Transmission Experience

    Assuming the new trans fixed the vibration?
