Yea it comes from bad experience. When I was about 3, I watched a hunter run over my dog intentionally because he thought it was a wild animal.
My cousin has invited me up there for thanksgiving and if I bring my dog, she will definitely be getting an orange vest to wear outside but if you go...
I have never used forscan before so I’m afraid I’m not much help with that but I’m certain larger tires is such a common mod that someone will be able to help you get started. There is a stickie in the electronics sections pertaining to forscan and that’s where I would make my start.
Your towing/payload may be affected a little bit but is dependent on the weight of the tires. I would expect the larger tires to weigh a little more but chances are that the combined weight is probably a negligible amount. Let's say each tire weigh 10 lbs more for a total of 40 lbs of...
That they are. She is the fourth one in my family. My parents have two that are traditional colored that are brother and sister from the same litter. Their intelligence can be concerning at times. Mine will open bedroom doors (taught to her by my parents female Border Collie) and knows the...
I get that, that is why I want the oem one as well even though they are pricey. I don't have 4wd so there is a nice big spot of plastic next to the shifter before the cancel stop start button where it would go on my truck. It would also be a good time to wire up a dash cam that has a rearward...
From my research, the "factory" TBC was always installed at the dealer not the factory on our Rangers. I plan on adding these items to mine in the event I decide that I need a boat more than money one day or want to camp in a trailer instead of a tent. From what I know, the only real advantage...
Levittown Ford Parts has in it stock for about $100. I am replacing mine next week when it gets here as part of preventive maintenance as I read on here that sensor can cause some significant damage if ignored long enough.
My parents grew up in Flippin near Bull Shoals Lake! While I unfortunately don't know any driving trails, I do want to point out that hunting is a very prominent sport there and the first day of deer season is practically a school holiday. I mention it only so that your beautiful pup might get a...
Couldn’t tell you. I’m planning on calling the shop I use to do a bunch of maintenance stuff anyhow including a coolant flush has my Ranger now has almost 85k on it
So what part is the common failure point? Is this something one can preemptively replace to prevent this failure or is it a luck of the draw? I plan on replacing that egr valve sensor soon to prevent that issue from raising its head as I have 84k miles on the truck now
I’ve heard of Toyota doing this from friends and family of their vehicles. One even had their cvt transmission claim rejected with only 42k on the whole vehicle claiming that it was “abused”. They bought the car to make a 70 mile highway round trip to and from work.
Well it would have been interesting if TFL learned about defective GM 2.7l engines the hard way. Not even sure if they know or if they would even make mention of it like they did with the stop sale of the Colorado/Canyon.
If you want to see more of the famous toyota reliability, the recent Tacoma recall is the second one they've had on the rear end in the last 8 or so years. The last time is because they left the factory without fluid or the proper amount. These are just two that I have heard about as I am just...
For those times, try using tow/haul or Sport mode. Living in the Houston area, you need to pull out in front of people often. Regular drive seems to be more on the lethargic side than the other two modes plus it automatically turns off s/s system which, if you have it on may also be a part of...
Your coolant issue might be that egr valve part. There won't be any codes but if it gets bad enough, it'll take out your head gasket from what I've read. I'll be replacing mine for the sake of it since I now have almost 84k on the odometer.
From what the sticker says in my driver door area, it was manufactured January of 2019. There are no records that the coolant has been changed before I bought it last summer so I'll have the coolant flushed soon since my trusted shop will do it for $100. No idea why it looks pinkish unless its...
How does one check the egr cooler/valve to see if it is bad? My ranger has 83k on it and is a little low on coolant but it isn't leaking externally or into the oil (I check the dipstick every fuel fill up). No leaks in the cab either from what I can smell. The level hasn't been dropping either...
