I saw this video on YouTube that explains driving habits and maintenance for Ford's 10 Speed. The video addresses some of the full size trucks but it seems very applicable to my 2019 Ranger which by the way is heading back to the transmission shop next week. If you hate clicking on link (yes...

I did this before but can't remember how I did it. Anyone have a link on how to look at the misfires using forscan? Thanks, John

Each time my transmission has problems it takes 4-6 weeks to get on the dealers schedule and then another 1-2 weeks for them to fix it. During this time I drive my vehicle as little as possible because these transmissions can be pretty extreme. Has anyone had luck extending the duration of...

My 2019 Ranger is scheduled to head back to the dealer in December (6 weeks) wait for Transmission issues. Shutter when giving it a little acceleration after taking your foot off the gas. I'd like to have the DPFE replaced since many say is causes problems that seem like transmission issues...

2019 Ford Ranger is at the shop having the spark plugs replaced at 70k miles due to misfires caused by water intrusion. The water intrusion would have been avoided if TSB 21-2147 had been completed which added an engine cover. I'm surprised by this because my dealer usually executes all the...

I'm curious if driving in the mountains warrants using Tow / Haul Mode? Additionally, at what load point would you consider using it? I recently had problems with the vehicle bucking going up hills with what I thought was an average load. Any negatives to driving in Tow / Haul mode other...

I love the Ranger! I'm 6'5" and it's tough to find a vehicle I fit in that isn't the size of a school bus. I do not like the Ranger 6g redesign. The hood appears longer and flatter with less visibility. Perhaps they are trying to be more Tacoma like! For maintenance, I've just done oil...

I've never used a code scanner before but would like to hook one up and get familiar with it prior to and issues with my Ranger. I'm not the sort of person that plans on modifying the OEM parameters. Curious, what scan tool allows all (of most) of the diagnostics and resets a dealer can...

It looks like I need new brake pads on the rears. What is the recommended procedure for doing this? 1) Replace the Pads? 2) Resurface rotors and replace pads? 3) Replace the rotors and the pads? Thanks, John

Curious if anyone has found a good dealer or mechanic for working on 2019 Ranger in the Nor Cal/Reno area. In particular, skilled at the transmission troubleshooting and repair.

If I get in my Ranger turn the key and start driving it bucks some in the first mile. Not sure if its the transmission or the engine. However, if I remote start it, by the time I get in it it's ready to go. Smooth going! Is this a problem? All the Ford maintenance center (dealers) around me...

Curious if anyone has tried the Michelin Cross Climate tires on their Ranger? These tires seems to be rated very high across the spectrum. Decent Ice/Snow rating is what got my attention.

I just got the Redarc Tow Pro Elite Controller installed and I am wondering if there is a test device I can use to make sure the controller is working properly. I'd like to make sure everything is good before I go pickup a trailer. Thanks, John

I just had my Ranger in the shop so get the Brake Controller install and noticed my drivers side Auto Up/Auto Down feature isn't working. I know they had to disconnect the battery to perform the installation. Is there a configuration or something I need to do to make Auto Up / Auto Down work...

Anyone know what a Fuel Induction and Throttle Body Cleaning Service is??? Took my vehicle to a stealership for its first oil change and rotation 10K. They handed me a "dealer" recommended service to come back at 15K miles. 15K service Minimum $361.36, Value $361.36, Preferred $441.21 Just...

I'm at 8000 miles and I just got a flat tire. I want to get the flat tire repaired use it as a spare and use my factory spare tire on the vehicle. Can I do that or is 8000 miles already too much wear on a tire to put a new tire on? Also curious, do the tires wear evenly or does one or two...

What are people paying to have the dealer install this unit? I already have my part. Checked with a dealer here in California and they want 3 hours at $175 an hour. $525 USD. First quoted me 2 hours, then when I said I was going to use the dealerships 20% Off coupon he said 3 hours! The...

I'm not crazy about having trail control speed on the steering wheel. I'm curious if any has moved it to a knob somewhere on the dash. I hate to say it but I like the way the Tacoma uses a knob.

Has anyone had the Ford branded branded brake controller (to include high brake light circuit) installed in the California region? If so, I'm. curious who did it and what was the cost? Also like to know if you are satisfied with the installation and the controller. The dealer here quoted me...

Has anyone tried this wireless brake controller. Apparently it takes the brake control from the seven pin connector brake lights. So if the Ranger brake lights are already wired to the connector it might prevent people from having to tear apart their vehicle to get to the high mounted brake...
