    Yup that is a royal pain. Don't let it go to long right now it is just a valve if you run it too long it will need the seat cut if it runs too long I feel your pain!

    Now that the deal is done Any Dealer can do the Warranty work. So if there is one you like better Switch

    When does it shift hard, It likes to get into 6 gear fast, if you coast down and the speed is low it will drop two gears Skipping 5, this will make the revs go high fast, and could be what you are feeling. Mine improved the shift quality as I passed 5500 to 6000 miles. Yours might need to take a few road trips. Another thing I learned is with the Cruise on it will actively brake to maintain, the set speed it felt very weird until I knew what was happening .

    Thats good news the resolution will be worth the wait

    Thanks for the up date , if the Piston hit the valve when the timing was off,then it could be sluggish closing and that would effect the idle the most. It is most likely the exhaust valve. This is turning into a mission for you. will expect the full up date when you get into it

    Thanks for the input your issue is on the way to being solved Good to here that they have a TSB on the issue . See if you can get the Part number of the kit or Seal that they are going to install. At one point I guess I will take mine in to have checked out. this time of the year no time and lots of Driving.

    The duct from the front to the back exits under both seats it is two piece, the outlet Is a push fit into the feed duct from the front. If it is not pushed in correctly then the hot air from the front gets lost under the carpet. As the heat for the back comes from the front and is run through and boosted buy the rear heater.,, It is critical to make sure that the feed ducts are working properly. I agree that the rear fan could have been made quieter.

    Let us know what happens with the grease
  13. G B L
    Hey good news. when did you first notice the grease, Where was the grease? Was it on the Boot or at the CV end or the shaft end? If the joint was really filled it could squeeze out of at the boot clamps. In any event it is good that the the kit has solved the leak

    In the wagon version the rear speakers are in the sliding doors and the wires are in the zipper that hooks to the rear bottom of the door. If the harness is universal then they will be there.

    Thanks for the up date. I think if you make enough polite noise they should come around. The District manager is the one to talk with I will have to check out the arm set up on mine Looking forward to the pictures
  16. G B L
    That's not good. Did Ford cover it? Was the arm damaged? Could you put on a new blade That adds another thing to check and worry about. Thanks for the info Good luck with the dealer

    Good Call. Mine has 12388 on the clock this time of the year its 400 plus a week The leak has slowed to a drip I am wondering it the guys that have had the seal changed are leak free now?
  18. G B L
    Cool Can't wait
  19. G B L
    Sounds like a Half Shaft CV Joint Issue, How many miles on the TC
  20. G B L
    daneli did you get the new seal and CV joint? If you did is the Leak Cured?
  21. G B L
    Your leak sounds big let us know how it turns out Windguy have you checked yours again how many miles on your rig now
  22. G B L
    You need to take a ride with the scanner hooked up to catch a freeze frame when the check engine is set off. Did you pull the code when the light came on? The fuel pressure regulator is more likely to cause a power issue. Does it still have the weird noise under the car?
  23. G B L
    Good info, with the code cleared it will not set the code when you are putting the power to it and the power is good? if that is true then the compression is not the issue
  24. G B L
    If you clear the code and you are on the highway under load when will it send a code? if every thing else is good and the compression is 15% low it should not set a misfire code.
  25. G B L
    The 15% difference is not the skip We are missing somthing. Can you bump the Idle to 1500 then Disconnect the coil aand see what happens?
