    Moon Roof- Yes or No?

    Sorry my response is coming in so late. Maybe it can help future buyers. I suggest "Not ordering a moon roof or sunroof". I had one in my 2014. I never used it and think they are pointless. But thats my opinion. One evening I was backing my 2014 into the GayRog to do some painting on the...

    2017 Raptor Rear end squeak - Shocks

    For what its worth, I washed it at 11am. This video was shot at 5pm. 6 hours after a minor wash. Im not sure I could have washed it any easier. Washed it at a car wash, didnt focus on the undercarriage much. The shocks shouldnt squeak that badly from a little direct spray and some overspray...

    2017 Raptor Rear end squeak - Shocks

    While driving slow today with the windows down I hear what sounds like a bird chirping. I got home and investigated by rocking the bed up and down. Then I pushed the rear bumper up and down. Horrible squeak coming from what I thought were the leaf springs, on both sides. I had washed my truck...

    Gen 2 Engine Rattle - Is this normal?

    Found it!!!!!! I will shoot a video tomorrow. The cause is the actuators on the electronic wastegate, or the wastegate itself. I am still learning about turbo setups. I understand Supercharged setups much better and have owned and modded a few. After researching Turbo setups today I heard...

    Gen 2 Engine Rattle - Is this normal?

    Ok, check out this link. It gives me hope. This guy also provides a temp fix in a later video. Different truck, smaller Ecoboost and maybe even a different actuator design. I will verify that later tonight. Im hopeful my issue is something simple like this. His sound is identical to mine, except...

    Gen 2 Engine Rattle - Is this normal?

    The noise comes from the general area where the camera was pointed. Sounds like a fully auto airsoft or BB gun running through 10 Rounds. It can be heard from anywhere standing around the truck. You dont have to get near the wheel. Does anyone else hear this as soon as you start the engine...

    Gen 2 Engine Rattle - Is this normal?

    I heard this the day I got the truck home. Its a late January build. Supercrew, AG. My front passenger door has an alignment issue, the door sticks out several mm past the rear door. I was outside moving the latch inward on the B pilar to try and adjust the door (no luck, still sticks out) and...

    GEN 2 Truck Order Discussion

    Can anyone help me get details on my order? Any help would be appreciated. Im not a Facebook user so I cant ask Ford to look it up via Facebook. I have a salesman at my dealership and I talk to him via email. I am in Dallas, placed my order in late Sept. Two weeks ago I got a VIN number with a...

    2017 Raptor Boost (PSI) and boost gauge

    I just read a post about a 2016 Lariat F150 owner saying he had a digital boost gauge. Maybe the new Ecoboost F150s all have them. Anyone know what the stock boost will be on the 2017 Raptor? I assume it hasnt been released. Really surprised nobody seems to ever ask that question. I know its...

    2017 Raptor Boost (PSI) and boost gauge

    I have a 2017 Screw ordered and I have been wondering about boost and boost gauges. Sorry if this has been answered somewhere else previously. - Does anyone know the factory stock PSI output from these twins? - Does anyone know if Ford will supply a digital boost gauge for the Gen2? I...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    I took the new oem radio parts (new touchscreen, new controller behind touchscreen, new cd player) and installed them last night. Finished at 1am. The controller unit that Ford sold me, the piece behind the touchscreen was the wrong part number. It was missing a aconnector. Therefore I used...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    Truth be told, if I could have found a SCAB, (2014 with 1500 miles or less) at a good price I would have much preferred it. I think they look way better in general. Truck for truck the SCAB wins on looks in my opinion. Also, my truck is 4 inches to long to fit in my garage. If I removed...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    Just to confirm. The first video in the post, all of those steps are required in order to remove the touch screen? All of of those dash pieces and center console must be remove just to get to the touch screen right? There is no short cut to only replace the touch screen? I am not concerned with...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    I have the new parts to replace my touch screen, head unit, control unit etc. The last factory radio I removed was on a 2010 Toyota Tacoma, it was pretty easy and quick. The raptor doesn't look to be quick or easy. When looking for videos for a walk through the only thing I can find is the...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    The first dealership called me back and said the head unit was no longer produced and there are "None". You cant buy this. He said "They must be changing it" Changing it? Its a 2014, the head unit is the head unit, they aint changing it. Maybe changing it for teh 2017 Raptor, but not the 2014...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    Very Helpful, thank you. These part numbers have been hard to come by. Looks like the Tranceiver is the Sync Module inside of the center console. I wont need that. The upper and lower cable should be good also. I am quoting out everything else. I caleld another FOrd dealership. He is...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    I met with the adjuster, he was a great guy. He said a car fax may be generated. I am not taking the truck to a repair shop. He said if it does show, it will be listed as "Water, Leak Sunroof" WHich could mean 100 differnt things to the person reading it. It will not look teh same as FLood...

    Left Sunroof Open Last Night (Texas Storms and Dead Touch Screen)

    Thanks for the info. What a terrible position to be in. File the claim and meet an auditor which should result in a new head unit, screen and seats (Just in case) plus a Car Fax Report. Plus potential lost value on my truck. Or, cancel the claim and buy the needed Touch Screen or head unit...
