This only works if there's a booster of course mines fully electric, yours may be to.

Try this test. Start vehicle and let run for a few minutes. Wait about 5 minutes and then unplug the vacuum line on the booster to see if you still have vacuum in the booster. An ideal situation it should hold a minimum of 15-20 minutes but a bare minimum of 5 is what I give them if booster is...

I've actually seen this on other models when both the accelerator and brakes are applied at the same time, mat pushing gas pedal a bit while braking etc.. Sensors on either can cause it. A friend drives with both feet and he got it on a super duty.

Somehow your going to have to convince a dealership to run diagnostics on the brake system. What your describing is not "normal" good luck!

If you have the Driver assist braking system, if I read the innards of the recall correctly, turn it off and see if it affects your braking because if so, you can inform the dealership that it did and therefore might fall into the recall. If dealership doesn't listen tell Ford, if they don't...

Im not positive about the newest Models but the start button in a flashing or blinking mode normally indicates a Anti-theft triggering and or the FOB itself. Sometimes you can insert the FOB into the dedicated slot in the vehicle (mine is in the small console storage at the bottom)and it will...

The CAN bus system has been around since the 80's and has come a long way in solving each module having to be individually wired into the system back to the main processing unit . Today's systems are generally very fault tolerate and it's like you say special equipment is needed, as well as...

This is disturbing to say the least, so far mines doing fine. Since I have repaired so many of these electronic gremlins in autos over the years I will make one single point! GROUNDS, Grounds, and Grounds. The last vehicle I chased gremlins in I had to completely remake 21 grounds to fix the...

Yep, remember that, my older brothers favorite was just slapping an old speaker magnet on the bottom! Lol We never cut one open either. I don't remember ever seeing anything on the oil plug magnet. Rear ends yes but its a constant meshing of gears. ah the memories!

Just a friendly hint. One, I extended my drive up ramps so there low enough for even small cars to crawl up without hitting anything. Works well for lawnmower work to. Second hint, I put my truck in 4 Low and pull up on 4 inch cement blocks. Provides all the clearance needed for my Danger Ranger.

Smart technology and alternators today are a totally different breed of system than even a few years ago. Without the proper test equipment some can not even be tested without an oscilloscope of sorts and computer equipment. Glad you found the culprit!

Some autos are by design about the only way to perform a oil change is extraction method. Being an old fart I'll stick to the extra time involved for the gravity drain method as suspended particles settle at the bottom and extraction can very seldom remove or reach such debris. One reason oil...

The Ranger has "Smart technology" charging type of system. Much more information is needed. Ford should know this. How are you monitoring the charging and seeing it not charge? The system works in short version. Monitoring with a meter on battery, it will show at times to be over charging, Not...

What you have said only reassures me as to why a dealer never touches my vehicles unless it's warranty work that needs to be done and then triple check it, even question the mechanic that did the work to see of he's even a mechanic in the first place. Check dealer reviews folks. My brand new...

What makes it so strange to me is I've been driving a long time and to many different vehicles to count and this is my first time ever experiencing this phenomenon. Not even my F150 did it that was traded in! Doesn't seem to matter if one windows down, both are down but it's very noticeable and...

Ive been driving since the 70's and never ran into Helmholtz before but this is very earnoying! Lol

Tried that and it relieved it some but the faster I went I still had to roll the windows up so my head didn't explode! Lol

I just bent them about 15 degrees while clamped in a large vise. Well protected and supported though. I've done this in the past but the angle on these are atrocious! Very uncomfortable! I made a 700 mile round trip and it became a real pain the lower neck! These are hollow so you have to be...

Anyone else experiencing a strange pulsating wind noise that hurts your ears if driving down the road over 45mph with the back windows rolled down? It's so bad you have to roll the windows up or it feels like your eardrums are going to exploded! It was present before I installed a bed cover and...

Ok CrustyNoodle your giving me brain overload here. That's an interesting thought as the even exhaust pulses for a twin scroll turbo would be missing unless you plumbed exhaust from one side to to others opposite turbo and before the turbo inlet for ultimate efficiency and an even, steady...
