2020 Raptor New Short Block - Oil in Cylinders

[GordoJay]

So the guy who has been here a month with 20 posts of nothing but this crap, is calling GordoJay with 3 years and 4500 posts a troll?? That makes zero sense.

It's not every troll that can make 4500 posts and not get banned. A little respect, please!

OP, it sounds like you're getting a new short block? How about letting Ford throw some money at it before jumping out the window.

You know, @Space Ghost, facts destroy a good narrative.

well, I suppose we finally have proof @FordTechOne has been wrong at least once...

It seems we DO, in fact, have to tell people to check their oil ;-)
(for all the good it did)

Yes we do. This is the first vehicle I've owned since 1985 where I had to check the oil between changes. It still feels wrong.

LOL! Ford is definitely not unique in their oil consumption tolerance. ALL ICE vehicle manufacturers have similar; what would be shocking to average people, oil consumption tolerance. And Ford is also not unique in calling out oil check intervals in their owners manuals.

It’s more an issue of us consumers being lazy than it is of manufacturers somehow trying to screw us.

I don't even know where the hood latch is.

Turbo vehicles seem to use more oil than most. My subie and turbo 911 both needed to be checked and normally needed a 1/2 quart between services.

That said I don’t think that’s what’s going on here in this case at all.
