    Transmission temperature

    There's dip stick for the trans on mine. It's right by the oil dipstick. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    Help Needed Please help!

    You might get away with driving it with the DPF. That sounds more like a sensor issue than the filter itself to me. I wouldn't drive it on the street at all if it's stuck in 4WD though. That'll tear things up in a hurry Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    2018 New Best SUVs

    I do believe that. But this guy knows a little more than the average person. And checked out my truck when I first bought it.

    2018 New Best SUVs

    I had a guy at work ask me about my SUV. I told him I didn't know what he was talking about. He tells me it's parked outside. I told him it's a truck with a shell on it. :nutkick:

    2018 New Best SUVs

    I'm going to imagine not many here keep up on SUV's. I know I haven't looked at them since I bought my truck. I had an Expedition after looking at some other models. But it was a 2008. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    I wonder if one of the solenoids was sticking and it worked itself loose again? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    Help Needed 2001 Excursion Transmission issues

    Is that trans controlled by solenoids or does it have a valve body? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    Dodge 1/2 ton with diesel?

    IMO the price isn't worth it. From what I've seen the hauling specs are the same as a gas engine. When the Nissan Titan diesel came out I was looking it up. The towing specs were the same as my grandparents 2016 F150 with the 5.0. I couldn't see paying for the Titan unless you really want to...

    used FORD for $5000

    Are you just looking for a daily beater to get to and from work? Does it have to be a truck or is a car ok?

    Help Needed After driving my F250 460 smell just same as gas fumes

    The cut exhaust could be letting the fumes into the cab. It could also be a bad gasket somewhere. The only way to figure that out is to inspect the exhaust. As for smelling the fumes 200 yards back, that's pretty bad. I'd pull the plugs and make sure they're good. But my guess is going to be...

    Help Needed I really want some quick help! Planning to buy 1975 F150

    I think you misunderstood my post. The coolant is going to spit out no matter what you do. That's why you need an expansion tank. To keep from losing the coolant. The coolant heats up, expands, and the extra moves to the expansion tank. When the engine cools it sucks the coolant back into the...

    Help Needed I really want some quick help! Planning to buy 1975 F150

    The coolant is normal. That's why there's expansion tanks. Coolant expands as it gets hot and needs somewhere to go. Put an expansion tank on to keep from losing coolant. Yes, you can buy a basic round filter from AutoZone, O'Reillys, etc. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    Bluetooth auto connect

    I usually have to go in and select radio or Sirius. Depending on what I actually want to listen too. I've wondered that too. I had an S4 before this and don't remember having this issue. But I didn't have that truck/phone combo as long as I've had this.

    Coolant Test Strips

    Yeah. I ordered them and did the test this past weekend. Everything seemed good so I reset the warning.

    Bluetooth auto connect

    I liked the Bluetooth so much I installed a Kenwood head unit in my Cobra with it. No more wires running across the center console. And so far the hands free is working nicely. We'll see how well it works when I reinstall my aftermarket exhaust.

    Battery Question

    Do you want to take the chance of getting stuck somewhere? It seems you have all the clues showing they're on the way out.

    F250 prerunner - is it a good idea?

    I think they're cool. My buddy used to have a Ranger that was prerunner style. But to me that's something you do if you actually take it out you the desert. Not just to cruise around with. The other thing is in my experience the prerunner suspension is fairly soft. So it would severely limit...

    Bluetooth auto connect

    Does anyone else have the issue where the radio will start playing the music from your bluetooth device automatically? Sometimes when I get in my truck it'll start playing whatever I was listening to on my phone. I've made sure to shut down the apps on my phone and turned off the auto start...

    Keyless remote

    I know this is an old thread, but something else to check is the batteries in the remote. I know it being a 2016 they shouldn't be an issue. But you don't know how long they were on the shelf before being used. I've had weird issues in the past with various remotes not wanting to work like they...

    No compression 6.4

    A leak down test basically pressurizes the cylinder with air. If there's a leak you can figure out where it is by where the air is coming from. If it's the valves you'll hear either from the intake or exhaust. Or both if it's bad. If you hear it coming from the oil dipstick tube it's something...

    No compression 6.4

    There's really only a couple of things that can cause this. One of them being you forgot to put all the piston rings in. Which I'm going to guess you didn't forget those. Next would be head gaskets instslled incorrectly. But unless you didn't torque them down you'd have compression somewhere...
