    Engine Chirp/Squeal

    New engine sound that annoying me. It's a chirping/squeal sound that occurs only during the first spool of the turbo under load. By the time I am at the end of my street it's essentially gone and not reproducible for that engine cycle. The sound is very similar to a slipping belt. It sounds...

    2021 Roush/Alcon Brake Kit Install Experience on 2020 gen 2

    @nikhsub1 Hey man hows the dust with new pads? I installed the Alcons in November and echo all the improved stopping reviews. But the dust is really something. Didn't mind during the winter because the truck is always dirty anyway. Now that it's summer would like to keep the wheels clean...

    Gen 2 - How bad is it to drive with faulty IWE actuator(s)?

    Just want to follow up and report that my "atypical" IWE rubbing sound has revolved since my Feb 2 post. Again, this was in the setting of a normal vacuum test at the solenoid in my driveway. I'm not sure if it was the actuator itself or the fitting/hose, but its gone and I'm happy. I would...

    Gen 2 - How bad is it to drive with faulty IWE actuator(s)?

    I got a mityvac and checked vacuum. The system held at 20 mm Hg forever. But, it has been abnormally warm in the Northeast. The noise was bothering me enough that I decided to take advantage of the warm spell last week and change out the IWE myself. $160 for the IWE, nuts (upper control arm...

    Wet Passenger Floor, All possible issues explored.

    I had to do the Ford TSB twice. I found this information on another post in this forum. You simply can NOT just pop on the rubber elbow and call it done (https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10168762-0001.pdf). It will still leak. This is a channel or groove on the underside of the...

    Gen 2 - How bad is it to drive with faulty IWE actuator(s)?

    They specifically told me they checked vacuum, CVs etc when I picked it up. I guess they didn't document it. If it wasn't documented it didn't happen right? (I have the Alcon big brake kit. I actually installed that in November because I thought the noise could be the calipers sticking)

    Gen 2 - How bad is it to drive with faulty IWE actuator(s)?

    I have the same problem and it's driving me nuts. My write up is almost exactly like yours. It's a grumble (NOT the rattle can or playing-card-in-a-bicycle-wheel sound others have documented here and youtube). There is some feedback in the wheel. It's only at slow speeds, decel, while...

    Driver side heated seat not working Gen 2

    My seat just quit working as well The lights work, fear its the element. When I call my local dealers, everyone asks if its the seat element or the back element. Neither of those elements work on the drivers side. Would a break of the element in the seat (butt) cushion cause the back element...

    2019 front differential seal leaking

    I took the skid plates off and unscrewed the fill plug. My diff was definitely overfilled as a bunch of lube spilled out. I let it drain to the bottom of the fill port and put the plug back. Hopefully that was the cause.

    2019 front differential seal leaking

    Thanks @FordTechOne. You are always so very helpful on this forum. The pinion bearing preload is not something I want to screw up. I was planning on marking the nut with a scratch awl. But I guess you are saying this method is too shade tree mechanic. I have strong impacts and a...

    2019 front differential seal leaking

    Funny because I discovered this leak while undercoating with HDMP. Maybe it's the northeast....because I've had nothing but bad experiences with my dealership. I'm gonna tackle it myself. The seal was $14. I picked up two bottles of gear lube, and the parts guy at the dealership told me it...
