I opened up my K+N airbox today to clean and re-oil my filter. Imagine my surprise when this is what I found! I can only describe it as a complete structural failure of the airbox. Almost every point that had a bolt or connector going through it has failed. For the life of me, I have no...

Is this condensation? This was right at startup. Goes away after a few minutes. I’m in NY, so I’m assuming it’s just cause of the cold. But given all of the issues I hear about, I want to make sure it’s nothing to be concerned about.

I'm away for work right now but I fly home tomorrow. When I get home I will upload a video to the thread but I thought I would get this posted early to capture some user insight. Here is the issue and the conditions to replicate: Symptom: Clattering noise. Similar to a rod bearing knock or...

Hi everyone, New to the site (although I’ve been lurking for a while) and also the new owner to a 2019 XLT. 33k miles, excited to join the community I’m having an issue that I hope someone might be able to identify, I’ve read a few similar posts on the site but this seems slightly different...

Hope @P. A. Schilke chimes in: Was reading that starting the vehicle and letting warm up VS start driving directly is bad, in the long term, for the engine. Several reliable references confirmed this. saying that parts of the engine/trans could be starved of oil, thus accelerating wear. As it...

I realize that this has been discussed in other posts before, but I don't believe we have a post specifically discussing owner's perspectives/beliefs regarding the truck's long-term durability. Granted, much of this will be speculation, as the only real way to test this is to let time take its...

Basically just my title, my oil was changed at 1,209, but my OLM is at 57% with only 667 miles. What’s going on here? I did do a few hard pulls after change. Truck has not been driven much and has been in extended parking (it’s been parked for most of its life, bought in November 2019) thanks!

Hey guys I been studying on buying a engine cover for my ranger . Why it did not come with one I Dont Know. Anyways I found the thread on here where to get one but I haven’t found where or what size bolts I will need to buy can someone point me in the right direction with the right parts.

I've been meaning to start a build thread, as I enjoy building up and documenting what I've worked on and how my truck has changed. 2015: Bought the truck in November. Shortly after started offroading and tried to climb Panama's highest peak, Volcán Barú, but I was denied by the park rangers...

Well, silly me didn’t read through my manual. I have 380 miles on my truck and had decided to test out sport mode. Little did I know the truck would not shift by itself (like my old yota) and ran the truck all the way up through red line and backed off QUICKLY while sobbing. I assumed that sport...

Hi all, So, today, at 317 miles, my truck gave me a low oil pressure and check engine light warning. I checked the oil dip stick, looked normal. I called the toll free number for Ford's towing services, had it towed to a dealership, and they said they will take a look at it tomorrow (Its...
