    Tri-chime when opening door?

    LOL not sure this is a problem, or just noticed. I was on vacation (without Raptor) and when I returned I noticed that the tri-chime started sounding as soon as I opened the door. No message on dash display or anything. Just seems weird that it starts chiming just by opening the door. But...

    Banging when putting in reverse?

    Thanks all. Yes, it happens when stationary and putting it in reverse. Like I said, no high idle speed or anything. Just feels like you are putting in gear with a torque converter locked up or something. It is most definitely a different feel than normal! Truck jumps and everything. I...

    Banging when putting in reverse?

    I have an intermittent problem. Occasionally, when putting into reverse, it will violently bang, the whole truck jerks. It is not idling high, no foot on the gas or anything. Sometimes same day or following day, the problem goes away. Get about once a month or so. Ideas? Hate to put it in...

    Forscan won't connect

    Trying to use Forscan for the first time. Laptop is up to date, Forscan version is 2.3.46. Using the ELMconfig OBD2 reader (see attached photo). Plugged everything in, Forscan doesn't recognize that anything is connected. Plugged the reader in several times (firmly), tried rebooting the...

    Applique retainers?

    I have a 2018 Raptor. Looking for replacement for those plastic ribbed "pins" that help attach the Raptor applique to the tailgate. According to my dealership, they only come with a complete new applique! I need to remove and replace mine and I understand they often break or lose their...

    Trailer electric plug loose in rear plastic step cover

    I decided to replace the plastic rear bumper step cover as it was scratched, etc. No problem removing it. When putting things back together, the large trailer electric plug is giving me problems. The metal side clips are not pressing against the new plastic cover. It is very loose and the...

    2018 front diff/CV leak

    Yes, it is. The dealer replaced the seal. And found a defective IEWS check valve. Apparently resulted in IWES teeth grinding off! They replaced both wheel bearings and IEWS. No indication this was happening! Covered under powertrain warranty.

    2018 front diff/CV leak

    Here in Las Vegas, the dealers are taking up to eight days to LOOK at a problem. You have to leave it with them the whole time! I have a fluid leak front diff/CV area, right side. I took a photo before I left it with them. Thought I'd see if this looked familiar to anyone and what it turned...

    Loose/hard shift into 8th

    I have a stock 2018 Raptor. I have noticed recently that it shifts differently when shifting into 8th. Under light throttle it seems to slip (i.e. the RPMs go up) and you can feel the forward acceleration lessen, then it engages. Under moderate throttle, it gives a harsher shift than the...

    Retrofit electric parking brake on 2018

    I have a 2018 Raptor. It has the old-fashioned "stomp" manual parking brake. I understand the 2019's have the EPB. Does anyone have a good Fords parts guy that I could work with to see how involved and $$ it would take to retrofit the electric parking brake on this vehicle? Or if you...

    GEN 2 Electric parking brake 2018?

    Thanks. Do you have a reference or link for that? Every one I read indicates 2018's were the first year. My 2018 owner's manual also only references an electric parking brake, and nothing in the Raptor supplement indicates otherwise.

    GEN 2 Electric parking brake 2018?

    I keep seeing many articles on the web that electric parking brakes were standard on all F150's in 2018. Here are a couple examples: https://www.hardworkingtrucks.com/zf-electric-park-brake-available-for-2018-f-150/ This one is Raptor specific for 2018 and says it has it: Way at the bottom...

    Any non-slick running board protectant?

    Anyone know of a non-slick running board protectant? Tried a few that look good, but are very slick (don't ask me how I know).

    Motive brake bleeder adapter?

    Anyone else use a Motive power brake bleeder? If so, what is the correct adapter? The Motive site application guide says the 1100 will fit as my 2018 Raptor uses a screw-on brake fluid cap. That adapter is titled as a "European adapter". Thought I'd check and see if anyone knows for sure...

    Headlight condensation and sealing

    Thanks. LOL we live in very, very dry Las Vegas. Dewpoint shouldn't be a problem. But whoever slathered the sealant on did an outstanding job. Moisture from Washington state still in there!

    Headlight condensation and sealing

    Thanks everyone. The Raptor was shipped from WA state, to me in Las Vegas. From very wet to very dry! Anyway one of the "RTV sealed headlights" still has condensation after several days. As I said, I live in Vegas, we haven't had rain, and have very low humidity. So whoever sealed them...

    special transport for Raptor?

    I purchased a Raptor located in Washington state, I am located in Nevada. It was at a Jaguar/Land Rover dealer and they recommended a transport service. I am dealing with that company and They originally said it would be picked up in WA on the 28th. They said the Raptor requires a special...
