    Any failed high cost stuff

    Bill to fix the whine in my 2018 transmission was a little over $6,000. New pump and new pump gears plus the labor. I plan to get an extended warranty also now that I decided to stick with the truck.

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Update/Fix: Transmission Pump gears were changed and the noise has been reduced by I’d say 85-90% I really have to try and hear it with my head under the truck and even still it’s hard to hear. Per the Ford 10r80 transmission engineering the pump gears will have a slight but unnoticeable...

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Update... The engineers told them To change the “transmission pump gears”, kinda lost on this one because the previously replaced the entire pump apparently. I asked why they are beating around the bush instead of just replacing the entire transmission. “We want to but can’t because the...

    Disabling fake engine noise - does it make the cabin quieter or noisier?

    I turned it off and it completely changed the cabin to me, I like the truck so much more with it off. Seems more refined, it was annoying to give it gas with that sound on. Turn it off and see. The highway ride and music all sounds better with that crap off from my perspective I was surprised.

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    I have to quote you again, you called it. Got a update call and they will be replacing the Front pump as well as the front pump module, just waiting on the pump to come in the mail.

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    I understand this first hand I’ll admit, from what I’ve spent on headers, fuel systems, turbos, superchargers, tunes Etc in the German world trying to go fast I could have built an entire race ready motor in most American cars and made more power. Looking at performance parts for American...

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Update: (kinda), They finally schedule me to drop my truck off for actual diagnostic/repair after it being there 3 times for the noise this past Monday. Ford calls me late afternoon to let me know they’ve never delt with this issue on their bran new 10 speed transmission and they have to reach...

    Are there any exhaust that make this truck sound good

    I’ve toyed around with the idea of trying to balance the two banks/sides of the exhaust better with an extra x or h pipe, maybe even resonators added. Quiter exhaust with more raw turbo noise from the motor was my idea. The tone seems to stay the same with this truck no matter what exhaust you...

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    They confirmed just now that it was the transmission making the whine noise but don’t know exactly what it is as they’ve never seen/heard this before. They want to reach out to ford and reschedule another drop off date to dig into it further.

    Transmission Noise

    YES!!! Read my thread I’m at ford now and they just said it was the transmission on my 2018 but they don’t know what’s causing it and I’ll have to reschedule a drop off. They’ve never heard it before apparently.

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Wilmington NC is where I am, it’s hard to pin point the noise exactly, but me and my neighbor are gonna give it a try before I take it in. Yea I’m honestly not looking forward to this if it becomes a big mess over them not wanting to even try and get rid of the sound. If that happens I’ll try...

    GEN 2 GT350 or Raptor

    Traded in my E63 AMG for my 18 raptor, it’s been 3 months and I’ve never looked back. This is also my first truck I came from nothing but tuned German cars. Used to drive my uncles Gt350 quite a bit, fun motor in that car but there was nothing special about it to me. Something about the raptor...

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Thanks for all your replies, I’ll be going to the dealer first thing Monday morning. I left it with the dealer over night last time and they called the next day “thats normal just the alternator”, I looked him in the face and laughed asking him if he was joking. It’s really lazy of them...

    Engine Whine, is it normal?

    Transmission/Engine Whine, is it normal? Ever since I bought my 2018 raptor it’s had a whine noise from the engine, never noticed much until the 5th person asked me if it was super charged. Took it in and the dealer said it’s normal it’s the alternator. The whine doesn’t increase with...

    Forscan changes - tweak your truck

    Just got forscan and it’s great so far, pretty easy stuff. Any way to put the moon roof to one button push fully close and open? Also rear windows auto up? Or am I stupid and missing something and it already does that some how? Thanks

    GEN 2 Engine backfire?

    Why is this considered a problem? Coming from an Biturbo E63 AMG, it popped and backfired on deceleration and between shifts on a daily basis. Just what high-performance turbo vehicles do from what I've seen owning my share over the years. 1800 miles on my 2018 and haven't experienced this...
