    Just Bought This Gen 2

    The 594’s are the updated 542’s. The M-12405-35T’s are good plugs also. Those are the colder plugs that Ford sells. You should be good no matter which ones you use.

    You are good. I believe the ones you ordered are the updated version of the ones I put in.

    Good deal. Was the oil pan leaking, or are you just changing it for preventative maintenance? I changed my plugs to the SP-542. It was a noticeable difference.

    2019 Transmission assistance

    Was the component they mentioned a solenoid? Since this is intermittent and given the fact that it seems to be weather/temperature related, it sounds more like a hardware related issue to me. I have heard of the software relearn fixing some general rough shifting especially when going from...

    $7.50 gallon gas

    Accounting for inflation, that is equivalent to $2.27 today. I feel like that would be a fair price for gas.

    FSA 21B10 - Cam phaser update?

    That video is 3 months old. Here is the latest. YouTube It looks like the procedure was updated yesterday (July 15) to take into account for the transmission shudder. It still sounds messy in my opinion. I’m going to reschedule and wait a few more weeks to see how this all plays out.

    I scheduled mine for Monday, before it disappears again.

    How To: Clean Upfitter/Aux Wiring Fuse Block Install

    I printed a bottom plate to mount the fuse box and ground terminal to. It’s not something you have to do, but it made it easier for me to attach everything to the top of the fuse panel.

    How To: Clean Upfitter/Aux Wiring Fuse Block Install

    That is a great write up. I finished installing all of my lights and cleaned up the wiring a little. I also redesigned the 3D printed mount to fit all of the gen 2 Raptors, not just the 17-18 years.

    Aloha

    Congrats! I used to live in Mililani. Several years ago I tried to buy a Vette on the island. I saved money by flying to Orlando, buying it there, and then shipping it all the way back. Even took my family to Disney World. Hawaii’s dealerships are the worst.

    GEN 2 Raptor Lean?

    I would definitely take it in now while it is brand new. If the dealer tells you to wait and let it settle, so be it, but at least it is documented. If you wait then you run the risk of the dealer blaming you for something. I really don’t think this is something that will “settle” over time.

    GEN 2 Raptor Lean?

    Definitely not normal. I would take it in. They might do something since it is brand new. Otherwise they would just tell you it’s within specs and brush you off.

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    Does anyone know if the Pioneer TS-A6990F would be similar sounding to the TS-A6986R? I have the 2017 Sony system. Thanks.
