  1. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    I did have both of my turbo assemblies replaced. The noise completely stopped for a while, but I now hear it and it is a normal sound to be expected for moving parts as engine RPM comes down. I'm no longer concerned as long as turbo actuator arms are not loose.
  2. Is it just me? or...... is our center console lid VERY uncomfortable??

    I bought a small bath rug and I put that on top. Makes it comfortable and protects it.

    Thank's. This is helpful. Hoping they have the parts when I take mine in end of this month. Good to see this includes rear axle fluid.
  4. Ford Recalls 103K F-150 Over Damaged Axle Bolts

    I don't know, but I would take it back. That's not right.
  5. Ford Recalls 103K F-150 Over Damaged Axle Bolts

    I saw the notification on Ford Pass app, but when I called my dealership, they wanted me to drop truck off, get inspection then get approval to order the parts for the repair on my 2023. In my opinion, it's a recall and they need to have the parts available to do this repair.
  6. Dealer seemed to use truck for personal use

    They do test drives and I've had techs take my vehicles home for diagnosing issues in the past. Not a problem if this gets the issue corrected and repaired.

    I get that noise too when headed into strong winds. Thanks for posting this as I didn't know it was the mirrors.
  8. 2023 F-150 Owner Manuals (paper) now in stock at Helm

    I downloaded the free one & printed the pages relevant to my 2023 & I keep it in the truck. Now I wish I could find a Shop Manual.
  9. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    It's this part in the picture. The noise happens 3 times as the arm moves on startup as idle comes down.
  10. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    The Shop Foreman watched my video. It's the wastegate. They are going to see if turbo assembly should be replaced on this side. But he says even with replacement and problem solved, it will come back. Ford says it's normal operation. You can watch it in your truck and see its operation.
  11. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    I have a video of the passenger side turbo assembly. As idle comes down and the actuator arm moves, the sound is coming from that. They replaced the drivers side turbo assembly and that one is now quiet. At dealership right now and having them document the video/concern.
  12. Rattle on cold start, wastegate rattle?

    I can watch and hear this perfectly as the arm on the turbo assembly for the waste gate moves as my idle comes down. I see it move like 3 times and hear the noise. The dealership replaced my drivers side turbo assembly and that one is quiet now as it moves, but this is coming from my passenger...
  13. Rattle on cold start, wastegate rattle?

    Okay, I have this exact same noise as my RPM's come down under 1000 on cold engine start. Took to dealership and they replaced a turbo assembly, but I still hear this sound as soon as RPM's start dropping. Then it goes away. What did you find out? Is this a concern or normal operation? turbo...
  14. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    Not really cold weather related. Cold engine temperature. See gauges in video.
  15. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    Yes. I saw this TSB and I sent it to the Service Advisor. She told me the problem was the turbo assembly and that's what they replaced. But that didn't solve the problem. Might have to revisit this TSB then. Thanks.
  16. Hearing a scraping noise on cold starts as idle drops under 1000 rpm

    2023 F-150 3.5 Ecoboost. On all cold starts as the high idle comes down I hear a scraping sound. It stops once the idle drops to normal idle. Any ideas? Truck was just in shop for this noise. They replaced a turbo assembly and actuator rod. But I still hear the noise. Any one else have this issue?
