Try this put all the fuses and Relays, Then disconnect the battery for 1 minute and see if that does a reset. I use this when the battery gets low and the clock won't reset. It might help.

All the doors have drain holes along the bottom edge over time they plug up with debris. Clear the holes and the water will drain.

Hi windguy!

Well I cannot speak to the 8f35 and 2.0 . The 6f35 and 2.5 in mine has 35000+ miles pulling trailers and the transmission has done fine. I Use Triax universal trans fluid
-
The ones that seem to last and last have the 2.5. Mrtn has a 1.6 running Propane he would know how that power holds up.

2017 transit xlt brakes seizing
G B L replied to EliteInstalls's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
If all that was done, you need a scan of the ABS and the Traction control. Go to the settings and turn off the Traction control and take it for a ride , see what happens Waiting for the reply ! -
2020 TC Engine misfire and stutter - transmission issue?
G B L replied to FTCAdventure's topic in <i>Powertrain Tech</i>
The only thing I would add it might be worth Doing a Transmission relearn to see if the shifting is a function of how the van is used. I am also a big fan of Triax Universal Trans mission fluid ti seems to hold up very well and the transmission seems to like it. TRIAX Global Full Synthetic ATF - PDS-WEB July 2018.pdf -
Check the Tow as that is the easiest to check and if there wasn't enough it would in crease the wandering.
-
Check the main fuse at the battery, and all of the connections in between.

Here are the two bearings . not as much as I thought!

TC XLT 2016 rear caliper and brake questions?
G B L replied to Willygee's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
The most important thing to torque is the lug nuts to prevent warping the rotors. caliper bolts are in the thirty lb range. -
When I was young J.C Whitney a mail order auto parts company use to sell The Econo Meter. It was a dash mounted vacuum gauge that was painted to help you save fuel. Now the computer handles it.

Car company's are cheap if it isn't cosmetic then they put it there for a reason. Not much money they should have sprung for the parts!!

Not sure what they were referring too but if it looked like this stuff it should be in there.

Yes . the only reason to go in would be a very tight valve.

There is no regular interval. The better job you do on keeping the Oil clean the longer the Cam phaser and chain guides will last. Some of the 2.5s have clocked large mileages over 300000mi. It pays to keep the oil clean. As a side note the transmissions will benefit from Drain and fills at 25000 to 30000 mile intervals.
-
To measure the clearance is straight forward to adjust them requires the removal of the camshafts and that will require the cam timing to be involved. A formidable job and with a transverse engine . The 2.5 engine timing is a challenge as the crank sprocket does not have a key and relies on the clamping force of the balancer. If you measure them and they are not too tight I would stop there.

drivers pedal feels rough, suspension sounds clunky
G B L replied to gossipninja's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Assuming you are talking about the brake pedal. Which wheel went in the pot hole ?Has any one looked at the brakes of the affected wheel. Is the pedal the same height? -
Here is my observation on the Visors. The Crappy spring not withstanding , i have found that if you push the visor up and get a click then you let off and push again there will be a second click and the visor will be up. This is my observation over the 9 years I have had my van.

Does your Key fob open the Lift Gate? If so !!
