[QUOTE="Ruger, post: 727593, member: 1594"] I think I have a problem. Up until fairly recently, my 2011 SCAB would routinely get 15.5 MPG in town and 16.5 to 17.0 on long distance trips. Now I'm very lucky to break 15.0 in town, and 15.5 on the highway. Same driver, same driving habits. I am feeling a little "growl" type vibration through the pedal and the floorboards now, and I think something is dragging. Wheel bearings? U-Joints? I jacked up the front yesterday and spun the wheels with the tires on, and didn't feel or hear anything unusual. Anybody with a Repair Manual: How do you check the wheel bearings and the U-Joints for excessive friction? Any other ideas? This is a 2011 Raptor, 6.2L, with factory wheels and tires, 47,000 miles. I have replaced the fluids in the whole driveline, have installed the Mag-Hytec rear differential cover, and have installed the aFe transmission pan. New Amsoil fluids used throughout. I think the problem has to be mechanical. [/QUOTE]
