[OrangeStreak]

Factory or aftermarket?

Joe,
Did you modify your engine cover? Mine came in black without the blue oval.

I picked up a new one on ebay a couple of weeks ago. I wanted it simply for noise suppression.

Only the super double secret 'Bertrand Russell Edition' Lariats came with the custom engine covers. Why Bertrand Russell? Russell was voted 'Best Henry Ford Impersonator' by some unknown group of automotive journalists a century ago....

All kidding aside, the chrome badges are commonly available. I attached mine with Gorilla Glue.

Did you notice a difference?

Yes, it does cut down on some noise... Knocks the edge off a bit. I figured it'd work well as my CRD Jeep is pretty significant with and without the engine cover. That even uses molded foam, similar to the Ranger cover, right on the valve covers.

Looks like yours is gray so evidently, they come in two colors?

Maybe it lightened up from use/heat. Dunno.....

The cover makes a very noticeable difference from my experience. Thinking they should have been OEM across the board as the Ranger motor is noisy as heck otherwise - loudly clattering away......

I've been daily driving the CRD for 6+ years, the Ranger is pretty quiet to me. My CRD isn't a noisy diesel, but it's not a quiet gas engine either.

I agree, every Ranger should have one. It doesn't do anything about the random buzzing you hear through the dash though. I was a little worried until I did a quick search and it seemed pretty common.

If anyone is wanting an engine cover I found another listing on ebay, says last one. Figured I'd pass along to this community to help anyone else out looking for one. ?

Do I have this correct? There is a TSB that if you don’t have a cover you can water runoff into the spark plugs that will cause corrosion. Ford isn’t honoring warranty because there is a TSB. At the same time, instead of installing a cover on all trucks, they discontinued the part all together?
