    Gas Mileage Changes After Cam Phaser Recall Performed

    After the cam phaser recall and associated PCM reprogram my 2019 is consistently reporting about 1-1.5mpg less than before the reprogram. Now before everyone screams at once: I know the number reported by the trip odometer isn't accurate, and is optimistic. I understand there is a calibration...

    An Uncommon Forscan Mod I Have Loved

    My heated steering wheel has always been a bit too hot for continual use. After a couple minutes of driving I have to navigate through the Sync menu to turn it off. I decided to use Forscan to knock it down one notch, and it's been great. My default setting was 88 F, and I knocked it down to 84...

    My Cam Phaser Recall Experience

    My Raptor is a 2019 built in 8/19. Only mods are a JLT catch can and auto start-stop delete. I read about the cam phaser issue before I even bought a Raptor. I always hoped it was limited to an unlucky few, and that I would escape, but alas the cam phasers came for me. At different points in...

    Any Tips for Using Water Deionizer?

    Received a Spotless DIW-20 as an early Father’s Day gift. I’m hoping it’s as easy as “mount it according to the instructions, wash the truck, let it dry spot free.” Anything I should know before hooking up and using it the first time?

    Can Stock Head Unit be Rebooted without Cycling Ignition?

    About 1/10 times I start the truck, CarPlay doesn't connect. I've often tried restarting my phone, but I think the problem is on the head unit side. The only way I've found to remedy it is to cycle the whole truck. And that doesn't just mean turn it off/on. I have to turn it off, open the door...

    Ultimate Bed Build and Custom Dual Battery System

    Here's a couple videos of the project in its current state: This is all the fault of @ShadowRaptor. His bed build was the inspiration for my build. I saw his build soon after getting my Raptor in the summer of 2020, and I couldn't believe how a truck bed could at the same time be so functional...

    Components Required for Dual Battery System?

    I have been researching dual battery setups. Some people use the vehicle's native charging system to charge the aux battery (via an isolator). Some people, particularly, in Australia, use a DC/DC charger to charge the aux battery. Apparently their vehicle charging systems are either too smart or...

    Question for Retrax Owners

    What's the distance between the bottom of the cannister and the bed? How much space do I have to work with? I'm trying to design a dual battery system that will fit underneath, and every 0.25" is going to count, which makes me not fully trust the calculations I can do by looking up specs. Can...

    How to Get the Most out of my A/C Seats?

    I confess I don't fully understand the air conditioned seats on my 2019 802A. Sometimes they blow me away and sometimes I wonder if they're working--all while still with 3 blue lights. So here are some dumb questions: 1. Does what's happening with the cabin temperature affect the A/C seat...
