    What is my Raptor worth?

    Definitely list it a bit higher than what you want to get out of it. I've had bad luck with the no ******** approach of just list it for what it's worth. Most people have to feel like they are getting it for less than you want to sell it for. Get ready for the tire kickers! Sent from my Pixel 2...

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    UPDATE 3/20/21 - FIXED AT LAST Second dealer called me and told me cam phaser parts came in and they would go ahead and replace without waiting for the projected May PCM update. Took it in on Weds morning and got it back Friday afternoon. It runs like new now. No more engine noises. Also it...

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    UPDATE 3/4/21 Took it to another dealer. Regarding both of the engine noises, they think it is related to the cam phasers. Apparently there is a new PCM update for the F150 to address cam phasers. The Raptor update won't be available until May. Ford engineering told them to do the PCM update in...

    Undercover Swing Case

    I know it's not for everyone but i use a du-ha under-rear-seat plastic storage tub for all my tool bags/stuff i don't want to leak onto floor. I debated bed storage options for a while before settling on that. It is attached with 2 hand screws. You have to take it out to remove the rear floor...

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    100% meaning every time I've listened, which is now quite a lot at all different times. I first noticed when I started working under the hood looking for a vacuum leak in the IWE system a few weeks ago. I was also hearing another abnormal noise while driving that I posted earlier in the...

    Is it normal to sound like that 100% of the time? Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    Lol, that's what I'm afraid of. Last night I remembered that a coworker of mine also has a 2018 Raptor. I went to his place and recorded his engine sound followed by my own. After hearing his engine, skip forward to :35 to hear mine. I wanted to have this video before going to the new...

    I was able to get a good recording of the noise I'm getting when I let off the throttle. Ideas? Also this is the front left wheel noise. This is a very short burst. Usually it will go on for a few seconds.

    For sure. Being negative doesn't make anyone want to work for you.

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    unfortunately that is after the dealer. i definitely am taking it somewhere else, and i'm not paying more diagnostic fees to look at something under warranty. i have a bad feeling these are going to be nagging issues. i hope i'm proven wrong.

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    UPDATE: Got the truck back from the dealer last night. They were unable to replicate the noise from the front end, so they charged me 125.00 for the time they spent driving it around, lol. I would have been more aggravated but I had the service manager ride with me and of course the damn thing...

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    I appreciate the replies. I probably use the word rat loosely. It certainly could be mice. I drive almost every day so hopefully they aren't setting up shop. Yep I cleaned the oil up and will certainly keep a close eye on it. It goes in and out of 4wd just fine. Due to the normal noise...

    Where to begin... IWE noise? rat damage? oil leak?

    2018 SCREW Last week I noticed an intermittent subtle grinding noise from my front wheels. It almost sounded like the brakes squealing a little when they are barely engaged. The noise seemed to occur when accelerating or decelerating at low speeds. I took it to a local recommended mechanic to...

    Anyone have a front left fender flare take-off to sell?

    2nd time I've gouged and had to replace one. Dumb. Anyone have a take-off they would be willing to sell? It's front left (driver side). Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Thank you all for the replies. I think I'll start shopping around. The noise annoys me more and more every day. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
