Ummm, Right here.?

Parts ordered, lets hope this fixes it?

 

[_N8_]

P139C code
Is the parts mentioned here, the main culprit?

That is the code mine eventually threw. By then it was pretty annoyingly bad. I'll be replacing mine again soon because I have started to feel the early symptoms again after another 23k miles. Seems like it's going to be an every 20k maintenance part for me.

Hopefully I don’t have this truck that long ?

I'm about to order all of them; then start an ebay war for them.

OK maybe not but one is on its way and I have yet to have the bucking issue.... ..... .... .... .... yet.

If I can buy them for under $20 each to my door, replace every 20k, and have little to no bucking, I'm not sweating it too much.

Went in for an oil change and told the service manager I had a light on and gave him a description of what was going on. Now I don't know if it was my past issues or what. But, the mechanic plugged it in and pulled that P139 code.
He pulled the sensor, cleaned the hoses an put back on. He says they come loose, get clogged faster than they should, and it’s a “known” issue. Meaning ford knows and don’t give a shit?
Anyway, I felt a difference driving home. The acceleration is right now! I guess with the issues going on for so long I didn’t notice it.
All the (insert signs and symptoms) are gone.
I do feel and notice the transmission “hunting” for a gear at low speed.
Honestly, I’m torn what to do?
Tune it and see what happens with the transmission ?
Go back to ford and start a claim with it?
I just feel bad juju with this truck going on. So many ford know about the problems and doesn’t give a shit is where I’m at.

I’m going to drive it about a week and see how it does. I’m going to up my gas to 89 and see what happens
And my parts showed up today as well ?

Well at least we now know that cleaning the sensor helps - but for me - if a part is a PITA to get off- I would much rather replace it and be done with it- BUT it appears that this specific thread is driving the supply/demand up and the price of the part has gone up - just like the engine cover.
We the people of this Forum are to blame.

I thought we were done with hoarding . This part failing wouldn't bother me much except Ford touted their new improved EGR system some yrs back - forgetting to mention that it's failure prone.

My money on gear hunting not related to the EGR sensor...looks like it's your transmission...

I'll have one soon that has 25k miles and isn't causing bucking, yet.

Should get the new one on this weekend; preventative maintenance along with an oil change.

Maybe if someone can send me one confirmed to be causing problems..... I could compare the two and learn the secrets. Then sell that to Ford and make millions.. mmmiilllliioonnnnss.
