You mentioned AT tires; are they the same diameter as stock? The speedometer is programmed for a specific tire size and a larger-diameter tire will travel the same distance with fewer revolutions, giving the software the impression that you've gone a shorter distance on the same amount of fuel...

Outstanding, Chief! BTW, I think you've shorted yourself by four inches in your sig/profile. That could be the difference between life and death!

I just have the cat shield from Talon's. It mounts via four bolts and no squeaks or groans. The one thing that I did have to modify was on the driver's side, I had to move the "wing" to the outside of the main skid plate in order to prevent rubbing on the port side cat.

Yep. Did mine at 30k and paid $720 out the door after tax (and tip lol). I might have added to the labor cost unnecessarily because I neglected to remove the Talons skid plate first. Tech mentioned that the fluid was still "red" so 30k was probably too early for first change. Next change will...

30K. Master tech said "too early." That's fine. We both agreed no need to return until 90k now. No way was I going to follow the recommended 150K fluid replace.

I had my local dealer do the drain, replace filter, and refill. The total cost was <koff koff> $730. I might have saved myself a few bucks had I remembered to remove the cat protector skid plate beforehand, which got factored into labor costs. I do pretty much everything else that I can on my...

I originally ordered the truck with the default 2.4Kw PPO option. About a month later we experienced an ice storm & lost power, and I realized that the 2.4Kw option was next-to-useless for backing up a home, and for the small additional upcharge the 7.2Kw was a much better option. I called the...

Does it still whine in park? Does the whine change pitch with RPM? I had what I thought was a bad transmission in an Accord and it turned out to be the alternator.

This video might help.

I have the same. I have no interior leaks and have to assume that it's condensate in the interior passages of the vents. I run the A/C all the time regardless of temps and that likely contributes to it. I think I'll try the Febreze route.

I'm quoting Google AI on this topic; I don't claim to be a petrochemical expert. I do see lower fuel economy in colder temps and "winter blend" appears to be one of the variables negatively impacting the performance. Other than quoting this, I don't know what I'm talking about. :-) Fuel...

To be fair, I really haven't seen much difference to my mileage after "break-in." Perhaps I haven't broken it in yet at 30k. First trip that I took was on the highway and got roughly 25mpg there and back over 200 mile trip. I do notice some degraded numbers in the winter when the battery is low...

Configure your gauge cluster to view transmission temps, and see if anything lines up with high temps. I just had my transmission fluid replaced at 30k and the tech had the same issue. (stop safely now) Right off the rack after everything completed. Only way to reset it was to pull battery cable...

The ratchet extensions/swivel works with a cap, as does this solution.

Just hit 30K and ashamed to say my 22 XLT PB is at the dealer getting tranny fluid and filter changed. (just too hard to do without a lift!) But 100% trouble free as well. Congrats on the 40K!

Ryan, did you make a backup of your original files? This is the first thing recommended in the livinitup tutorial. If you did this as instructed, then I would consider loading the backup file and going back to initial state. Hopefully your issue will go away at that point. Once you verify...

What I can't tell from that ebay listing is whether it can accept the old BLIS module. No way that it includes a proper BLIS module for $170. You might also have to make some FORScan changes depending on which trim level that you currently have. Your profile says "Avalanche" which is an F150...

I'm pretty sure on my 22 XLT that the BLIS module just pulls out and can be re-installed on the replacement.
