Im on this forum and others, daily. There are a few occurrences, and some are waiting too long for replacements, yes. Every other day? Absolutely not. Sorry.
Sticking with the 2.7, no worries here.
You do know that the 2.7 in the bronco is not the same 2.7 that is in the F150 right? The bronco 2.7 is the Nano and is a complete redesign specifically for the bronco. Apples to Oranges bud.
I did not know that, actually. Thanks for the clarification. I’m going to dig into that further.
Every time I see your avatar I think of Troy Polamalu. Go Steelers. Sorry I know this has nothing to do with the current thread but I had to mention it.
Meh, death wobble can coast to the side of the road too, that’s how you get it to stop. Difference is the Jeep can then get back up and keep driving. It’s usually just a worn out suspension component, which is an easy fix, in my garage. Plus, good maintenance (which we should all be doing) is all it takes to avoid it generally.
It does share a lot of parts but there are some pretty big differences in some places. Im a 2.3L guy so I dont really have a dog in this fight, but i feel so much pain for those that are losing engines. I know a warranty covers it but being down a rig after waiting so long and then possibly waiting even longer just to get a replacement engine would not sit well with me.
Agreed. I’m embarrassed that I didn’t know there was a difference in these engines. Why did Ford mess with a good thing? Weight issues?
Is this actually true? Do you have an article that talks about the differences between the two? I do know it's the gen2 of the 2.7, but a complete redesign for the Bronco? This is the first I've heard of this.
Hmmmm, not sure this is completely accurate. Both this and this, where the second one specifically mentions the Nano tech and the first one talking about the 2.7L in general, mention they've been around since 2015 and in F-150s.
Show me all the in stock form problems you speak of the 392 supposedly has?? I only heard of problems once people boost. The 392 has been around forever!! Please!!
There has been very little actual info released on the full differences between the new 2.7 that is in the bronco vs the f150 version. But there was a video posted recently on the forums discussing some of the changes. Im not tech savy enough to find the links though. I personally see nothing wrong with either engine. I just wish they would have dropped in the 3.5 from the F150. We have that in our 2016 an that engine is no joke.
