    So, what's the deal with these cam phasers and does anyone have pictures of what they should look like? How about pictures of different versions? Anybody have engineering schematics of these parts? I need more comparison pictures especially. Are the cam phasers in the Lightning a big problem...

    Anything special on G2 to know about to do brake fluid flush?

    I'm going to do the first brake flush on my '20 and was wondering if it's just a normal system, or if there is anything unusual I need to know with this setup, or with the electric parking brake? I've never seen anything posted about anything out of the ordinary with the hydraulics. I already...

    Question on Master Reset of the Sync and Subsequent issues After?

    I'm curious if anyone else has run into this odd issue with Sync. I have not had any issues before now that a soft reset didn't fix. Last week I had a pop up that asked if I wanted to enable auto updates, and enable sync diagnostics. I clicked no and closed that window, since I was good all this...

    Anyone replace the cabin air filter on a '20 with the CF interior?

    If I follow the couple of YT videos on how to replace the cabin filter, they show how you remove the rubber trim piece above the box lid, that lets you then you expose and remove the two bolts and pull the glove box out, then replace the filter. Problem is that with the Recaro package with the...

    Rattle From Center Console Fix?

    When I go over large bumps, like RR tracks and holes, I'm now getting an annoying rattle from right around the cupholders in the center console. If I put a little side pressure on the console plastic on the right side, it doesn't rattle. I was wondering if anybody else has run into this and how...

    Installed My Ford Performance Catch Can

    I did the Ford Performance catch can install today. The mechanical part was very straight forward. You replace one of the valve cover bolts with a special longer one that attaches the bracket for the can, and you reuse the other bolt for a second attachment point on the bracket. All the under...

    Random soft ticking sound??

    I've started getting a random, soft ticking sound from my engine. It sounds very similar to a very light single valve tap. it sounds like it's coming from lower in the engine bay. It does it randomly for short duration. Today on a full cold start, it was quiet until about 45 seconds, then a...

    Has Anyone had to have their front seat cover replaced?

    I had the plastic clip that held down the front cover of the lower (the bottom piece you sit on) part of the passenger seat. The dealer ordered a replacement seat cover and foam. From what I was told there is no adjustment to the install. The seat now looks like you put a slipcover on it instead...

    Any of You Trouble makers Familiar with New TRX Pricing?

    I know some of you have gotten TRX's, some in addition to your Raptor. I was wondering what current pricing looks like on new stock? I thought I saw some comments that some dealers were discounting pretty heavily now. I'm asking because a friend of a friend needs to get out of his '20 TRX. I'm...

    I Have an Unusual Issue (Big Shock, I know!)

    I went to drop my spare for the first time and was planning on lubing the cable. I only thought about it because when I went to lower the spare on my beater '05 Silverado it was rusted like it had been sitting in the surf at the beach for years. That one I'm going to have to cut it loose and...

    Question about odd electrical noises after truck is sitting 36 hours?

    I'm wondering if anybody else ever noticed this. I'm in the garage changing oil on one of my cars. My Raptor is in the garage and hasn't been touched in over 36 hours. I hear this noise as if something electrical has just been energized, some clicks, then quiet for about 5 seconds, then the same...

    Question For Guys with Tinted Windshields?

    Sup *******? For the first 6 months or so of having my windshield tinted (only 70%), everything was fine. After the truck went in for the camera issues the auto headlight switch has never worked right since. If the sun isn't pretty direct on the sensor, it thinks it's night and darkens the dash...

    Question on power release tailgate warranty fix?

    Is there any reason to have this tailgate repair "21M06" done if I've never had an issue with it? The only trouble I've had was when it was new and I unintentionaly hit the remote release button on the fob and it flopped open into my garage door.

    Sunoco Ultra 94?

    Has this Ultra 94 that's now listed as a Top Tier fuel been out for a while? This is the first I've seen it in my area. I have only been able to get 93 in Top Tier gas in my area. Now a local Sunoco has the Ultra 94 which it says is also a Top Tier gas.

    Question on stereo/sync system??

    Just recently my stereo started getting goofy. 99% of the time I listen to my USB drive. The last few days every time I start it, it has switched to Syrius. I've done the reset 3 or 4 times now and it hasn't changed anything. Since I owned it, 2020, this has happened a few times, but it would...

    Am I the Only ***** One?

    I didn't know until a few weeks ago that the visor slides out on the shaft to block the sun in the side window. From when I bought it I was surprised it didn't have a slide out extension on the visor like my Silverado has. A couple of weeks ago as I was flipping it over to the side window, and...

    Question about maintenance of ventilated/cooled seats??

    Is there any type of filter to clean, or any maintenance needed, to keep the seat vents flowing like they did when new? There is definitely a drop in performance of the cooling since the truck was new. Thanks.

    Question about Nav system and using Bluetooth?

    I don't have a need for my nav system too often, but it's obviously great when you need it. I never noticed this until lately, and I want to find out if it's normal operation. The nav works great if I'm not on the phone. If I use the bluetooth for my phone, the nav goes quiet, no voice prompts...

    I'm so glad Ford is cracking down on crazy ADM's!

    Question on Ford Maintenance Plans?

    I got a letter from Ford today saying that I have received 12 "Service Visits" good until 2026. I understand it could be an oil change, tire rotation, anything else? I normally do all my own oil changes with Mobil 1 at 5,000 miles. I also rotate myself, :gayfight::supergay:(Hey there sailor!)...

    Do replacement Gen 2 fender flares come painted?

    Something got dripped on mine while it was at the dealer and screwed it up a bit. There's a pencil diameter slightly dished out black spot where something ate into the finish. Very strange, can't find anything else, just one spot. I'm trying to decide between repaint or replacement. If they come...

    Solution for rattle over sharp edged bumps from center console area

    I've been driving myself nuts the last few weeks trying to find a rattle I was sure was coming from my center console. I took everything out of the center console, that wasn't it. Emptied the glove box, nope, not from there either. Worked my way around the console trying to pull and move things...

    Having trouble with a weak Homelink signal for your garage opener?

    My signal from my Homelink gradually had gotten weaker and weaker over the last 2 years. It was never as good as the stand alone remote. The signal had gotten to the point where I had to almost nose up to the door to get it to work. I was assuming the visor remote was going bad. I had ordered...
