Hi All,
I am brand new to the site and was wondering if someone has experienced the same problems. I bought my Ranger in early February and I am very pleased with performance and capability of this little truck. I have a couple of concerns though and was hoping that someone in 5g land might have some suggestions. The first issue I have is that is that I seem to have a rattle ( the sound resembles a timing rattle) under moderate acceleration. This issue does not occur all the time but is consistently intermittent, if that makes any sense, almost sounds like a rattling of chain is the only other way to describe it. Another concern I have, is that I have had some hesitation in the truck gearing down, when I am merging from the slow lane into the fast lane. It seems that I have an initial power loss, which feels almost like a turbo lag. Again this does not happen all the time. I also have experienced some hard gear changes in the ranges from 5-7. Hearing about these problems, would it be worth it to have the dealer re-flash the pcm?
Cheers, James
