[QUOTE="Eship, post: 1625669, member: 47641"] FordTechOne, Thank you for the reply and information/illustrations on PCV. I will check everything out soon and report back. I will give oil level a look, but I checked the oil level after each service appointment. I would check when picking the truck up from dealer and then would do my real check after I would get home and let the truck sit for 15-20 mins. I will give it another look to be sure because it has been a couple of weeks since checking. I'm the second owner. The truck had 13k miles when I bought it. I suspect that the original owner was starting to get intermittent cam phaser noise and decided to trade it in rather than do the warranty work. That being said, I don't know the oil service history from original owner. My plan is to change the oil every 5k miles and use Mobil 1 extended performance along with a ford oil filter. Since owning the truck, I've only changed the oil once (a couple weeks after I purchased the truck). As part of the cam phaser replacement, Ford has replaced my oil with Ford semi-synthetic and ford filter. I haven't changed the oil back to my preference because I figure that at any given appointment at the dealer, they may change the oil again as part of whatever repair procedure they do next. My neighbor down the street has a second gen as well. He is Cobb tuned etc. etc. I use his Cobb tuner/controller to read the DTCs. thanks [/QUOTE]
