    DEF Pump

    Too bad. If it happens again, I will likely go with the delete kit. I have already changed our 2 NOX sensors as well.

    DEF Pump

    Just hitting 125,000 km on my 2011 F350 and had to change the DEF pump. Total cost $1400. They claim it doesn't fall under the drive train warranty. Has anyone had an experience with this.

    Death Wobble

    Just so you know, this truck now has 120,000 km on it and last week I experienced the wobble again on 3 different occasions. Pretty frustrating siuation and sad that Ford doesn't have the decency to fess up and address it.

    Check Coolant Additive Message

    Coolant Additive That is good to know. I think I might just ignore it next time and just do a flush when the time comes. I would love to hear more about your performance after the delete kit. Clogging that filter has always been a concern and I understand replacing the filter is a big ticket...

    Check Coolant Additive Message

    You are right about that. The good new is that there is only about 27,000 miles on this coolant.

    Check Coolant Additive Message

    This is the second time my warning came on. The first time, I had my oil changed at a Rapid Lube and they provided an additive that I learned later was likely not Ford approved and the manufacturer wasn't even sure what was required. This time I took it to the dealer and they just checked the...

    Low Speed Towing Growl

    Low Speed Towing Growl

    I pull a 32' Fifth wheel aprox 13000 lbs. If I take off from a stop agressivly, I get a growl from below and mainly behind. Does any one else have this issue? The truck has the guts to get up and go pretty quick.

    Engine Light

    Thanks, you are right on the Heavy Duties weighing over 8500 lb. This truck weighs 8575 with the fifth wheel hitch, 2 bodies and fuel. I'm guessing it is the NOx sensor which was a TSB and was already addressed 22,000 km ago. I should know tomorrow. It appears what ever the problem, its...

    Engine Light

    I have a 2011 F350 Super Duty 6.7 L that is now 10,000 km past warranty. The Engine Light came on this weekend and I assume it is emissions related. Has anyone had this happen and any idea on what to expect before I take it to the shop to be diagnosed?

    Check Coolant Additive Message

    Check Coolant Additive So far it seems to only be something that is primarily done at a Ford dealer. I find that frustrating as it is not only another item that cost you more then it should, but also what if I am somewhere where a dealer isn't convenient?

    Check Coolant Additive Message

    There is only 24,000 k on the coolant in the system and I have no interest in making a trip to the dealer each time this happens. Does anyone have a proven method of dealing with this and what product to add? Will the message center reset on its own?

    6.7 diesel fumes in cab!!

    I had the same problem, ended up being a loose clamp where at the exhaust filter and each time the filter cleaned and i was stopped - red light etc., the fumes entered the cab quite bad.

    Death Wobble

    Death Woble Thanks for your response. After a little arm twisting with Ford, they finally did what I believe you are referring to. They called it the track bar. So far it seems to be ok.

    Death Wobble

    Got the truck back and they installed a "Shimmy Shock" The steering does feel a bit tighter, but I haven't had it on a rough road yet to test for the wobble. Anyone heard of this shock?

    Death Wobble

    Thanks for your comments. They have installed a dampner and I am to receive the truck back today. I am very concerned and hope they will have some solid answers when I see them at pick up time.

    Death Wobble

    The truck is in the shop right now, but I looked at it yesterday and I don't remember seeing a stabalizer. If it is needed, I don't understand why it wasn't installed @ the factory.

    Death Wobble

    I drive a 2011 F350 4x4. I bought it new and it now has 51,000k on it. On 2 different occasions, I have had a flapping sound (like a flat tire) on the front right wheel at highway speeds and both times it has quit on its own. I had it before and after tire rotation. However yesterday driving at...

    Power Steering

    Update to the Power Steering - The problem with the smell never was related to the power steering but was simply a loos clamp at the exhaust filter which leaked when going thtough the cleaning process. The tech's didnt have a clue. The problem was diagnosed by a retired mechanic which i had the...

    Power Steering

    Power Steering and Odor Power Steering seems to be working fine, but the odor is starting to come back again quite frequently, yet not on a consistent basis. Tough to locate, but almost gases you out of the cab. Has to be something near the vent intake.

    I've got 5000 km on the new power steering pump and gear box. So far so good.

    Power Steering

    So far the steering is working. However my first tip to a problem was extremely strong fumes in the cab when idling at a red light. They claim it was a leaking gear box spilling oil onto the manifold. I question if they are right because I continue to have the same problem periodically. It...

    Power Steering

    An F350 it is and I'm told it has hydro boost. It makes no sense why I didn't notice any change to the braking.
