Cam Phaser debacle

Got my truck back today! She's as good as new (so far). Everything was covered, even though my truck is out of warranty. Here's what they did:

sooooooo more than just the cam phaser huh

That’s the list of parts to replace cam phasers. Cleaning/surface prep chemicals, gaskets, fluids, sealant, and replacement hardware.

Still waiting on parts.

That is the typical list for the cam phaser work.

Took the car in yesterday 2019 802a had the flash a few months ago issue came back two days after. They didn't mention any issues with parts just two weeks till it's done.

I have the ford platinum premium care, rental is covered for 10 days, hopefully they don't come back with extra delays, cause I'll be out of a truck for a little while.

For those of you with premium care, you must rent a ford, I got lucky and found one buts it's a BS rental option.

Well, I really hope I'm wrong but it's seeming like my 20 has phaser rattle (build date of 03/20). Have been able to replicate it 2 mornings in a row now

Going to get ahold of my local dealer on Monday. Pretty bummed as I specifically bought a 2020 to avoid having the engine torn into. FML

That’s is not cam phaser rattle. Phaser rattle is a very distinct clatter that lasts only 2-5 seconds and then immediately goes away. What you’re most likely hearing is the high pressure fuel pump and wastegate rattle, which are normal and most audible on a cold start.

The engine shampoo alone is worth that wait!
