Sorry to see this. Any theories? Heat, moisture?

That could make some sense. Something of a system watchdog. Sub-modules report status back to the watchdog ...wherever it may reside. There may be a delay in the modules that have been updated at subsequent power-on (for housekeeping stuff). The delayed ready status (not-ready) activates the...

Looks like they went to town detailing the paint. The pricing bait and switch scheme is deserving of a throat punch. Good work on whittling them down.

And more. The historical underpinnings and how the working class had made a living, how the workforce was treated during those times, the change of culture, migration patterns, and how such places contributed to this country's industrial powerbase, how technology evolved, the impacts of...

In the vehicle that I have, there is a pair of Audiofrog co-axials in the front corners. They also exhibited harshness which varied between the driver and passenger. Tuning was able to tame that. Coaxials on the dash works fine but perhaps they make for more difficult tuning. I feel that many...

For sure. Now with 5 times the number of speakers, multiple amplifiers, and built in adjustable-crossovers, equalizers, delays, etc.

Yes, @Brian_B captured it well. Not too sure how much room you'll have available for both the B&O amp and the kicker amp but there is probably someone on the forum that's done that. If you're planning on doing upgrades over time, consider running heavier gauge power back there to support a...

For the B&O amp + dsp, it does drive multiple channels.

Agree'd. Replacing the oil drain plug with a valved plug makes for a simple and mess free oil change. For the 2.7, don't even need an oil catch pan. just slide a 2.5 gallon carboy under the vehicle and drop the drain hose into that. Once full, bring carboy with the waste oil in for disposal...

Thanks. Please keep us up-to-date (Injen really should be doing this proactively). I've had their CAI for nearly a year now and have been waiting for their resolution to this issue as well (because MA emissions will fail with logged codes).

Yup, they are the same. *seems unusual for Ford. Kudos.

I'll try a non-stainless plated drain plug that was pulled off the diff on the TC whereas stainless plugs on the diffs. Paste on all plugs. Will keep an eye on them regardless.

At 4K, the transfer case fluid does appear to have some very fine metal contamination. Adding a magnetic drain plug. Anyone have concerns with corrosion being that the TC housing is aluminum. The original TC plugs have what appears to be a heavier zinc dip relative to the diff plugs.

Another rear differential specimen (4K miles): Front differential. Waste oil in similar condition as to the rear with metal paste on the drain plug:

Sounds a bit like the cam phaser rattle.

I had installed sorbothane tophat washers to help isolate the sub enclosure from the chassis. This, along with stuffing the rear panel, eliminated the rattles even when driving higher power. Here are the deets on that...

I have a small spot that looks that way as well. Not nearly as large of an area. As though someone tried scrubbing something ... wasn't me though.

Seconded. Deutsch connectors are awesome ... albeit can be a bit pricey.
