This is a great opportunity for an aftermarket performance company to make a real metal oil pan with proper drain plug and a real dipstick……please, somebody hear my prayers and save us from this madness!
I was told that the Nano 2.7 is a redesign for the Bronco and is not in the F150, is that correct? Also, I find it weird that when I question the dealer and service techs, they have idea what I am talking about.🤣
I called Ford directly on this issue as I am sure a lot of you did as well. The rep finally gave me a logical explanation(to me at least). They said that the oil capacity on the DOCUMENTED fill AT THE FACTORY is 7qts. However, when you drain the oil, a quart remains in the engine oil lines and...
They have been making these for Jeeps for years and have great reviews on Youtube. I have been waiting for this impatiently since I got my soft top Bronco and ordered one this morning. They are having a winter sale of 15% off.
i was one of the people that doubted that claim but after seeing the ‘litebright’ vid of the separation of the soft top seams while driving head on in high winds, I realized that I was wrong.
‘LowerSlower’Delaware…..If Im right, you and I have some things in common. My philosophy has always been..’It’s not what you CAN do, it’s what you choose not to’.
That’s how to stay alive flying low and slow in this world.
BTW, Do you know anyone desperate enought to trade a Badlands Bronco for...
I hear you. I was coming from a perspective of calculated risk and ‘Get-there-itis’ can get you killed. Thanks for the comment and I have my fingers crossed that you get your Bronco ASAP. Be safe out there my friend.😉
Light -not so- Bright.
I don’t get it…people have no common sense… “We have places to be”….? They are lucky they got away with just a cracked windshield.
If a dealer wants to mark up a vehicle that is on the lot, that’s fair. However, when I put a down payment with Ford to buy a vehicle, I was the one who chose the dealer and they should be grateful that I chose them over their competition to ‘handle’ the vehicle. It’s downright screwing the...
Is this one of those brain teaser mysteries that we are supposed to rack our brains to figure out.?.…..OK..
I say Somebody left the top down and was too lazy to close it during the blizzard, got up early the next day, said ‘O Shit’, closed it and said..”Gee Dad, I don’t know how that could have...
Not sure about how this individual has been driving their vehicle but I have
been seeing a lot of people on Youtube tearing up their brand new vehicle, with out a break-in period. Doing hard accelerations, Towing, driving thousand mile highway runs right out of the dealership, blasting in the...
It means that information about your vehicle can be accessed without using the ford pass app and therefor he is writing his own app to look and show the info that he wants. You need to understand a little about computer programming to do this. The API is the doorway that enables the programmer...
Turbo cooling-Its to cool the bearings so oil does not bake onto the bearing surfaces to get max life out of the turbos, turbos can get really hot. Turbo charged airplanes require this before shutdown and other turbine planes idle for a period before shutdown too for the same reason.
As far as...
I would suggest always pulling the drain plug to remove the oil instead of sucking it out. That way you are more likely to remove dirt, shavings etc since it is all flowing out the lowest part of the pan. Also, with a turbo engine, change the oil more frequently and not pushing the oil life...
