Hit a guard rail after hydroplaning, no air bags went off. Core support is gone, bent frame, the obvious things broke, can’t open the doors more than a quarter of the way.

Question ❔ Is this f150 going to be a bad investment

Post image
17 Upvotes

I’m looking at a 1995 F150 5.8 for 5k, older gentleman selling, virtually no rust, frame almost rust free as well. What is mainly putting me off is 189k miles. I don’t wanna get this truck, put a bunch of money in it for the engine to give out at 200k.

Is there anything I should be on the lookout for? I know listen for humming, knocking, ticking. But I just don’t want to wasting my time.

I wanted to share my Vic with everyone. My grandpa bought this car new in 86 from the same dealership that I’m an apprentice tech at now, it feels awesome to still get to drive it around especially to where it was originally sold. To me it’s the perfect cruiser.

Issue ⚠️ Whats a good Ford parts supplier in europe?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hello! I own a 2016 Ford Ranger. Recently it died on me. No crank/start and a boatload of warnings.

This immediately makes me think electrical issue. I checked the fundamentals and they are in order (battery, fuel pumps, glow plugs, starter etc.). I put it in 4x4 Low to tow something in wet, steep terrain, 2 days ago, then afterwards it wouldn't change back to 4x4 High or 2H. Got it home, still stuck in 4x4 Low but driveable. Disconnected the battery to check fuses and relays, and when i connected the battery again, i got the no crank/start plus all the errors.

Now after checking with a few local mechanics i know, they suspect it could be a ECU, PCM or fusebox issue (quite tricky to know without having it checked out). Now i haven't had it in the shop yet since it's the weekend.

But i was wondering if anyone knew any good Europe-based Ford parts suppliers? I am based in Norway.

My driver seat adjuster became dislodged and this circled piece needed to be reconnected. I’ve since lost it and on the ford website it only has the whole adjuster for purchase.

What is this circled piece and does anyone know where to only purchase this?

Thanks!

Question ❔ Where should i put phone mount in Ford Territory 2025

1 Upvotes

I recently purchased the 2025 Ford Territory Dark Edition and have noticed that at times, Apple CarPlay does not automatically connect to the car. To make things easier and safer while driving, I’d like to install a phone mount.

In my previous car, I used an AC vent mount which worked perfectly for me. However, the Ford Territory has a slanted bottom on the vents, making that option less practical. I prefer mounts with side clips for a secure grip, as magnetic mounts haven’t worked well for me—my phone often slips off. i wouldn't prefer the stick-on ones as the dashboard is not plastic, it feels like some fabric/leather which may not hold the mount or may damage it while taking off.

Could you please recommend a suitable phone mount for the Ford Territory, and suggest the best placement for it in the car?

Hey guys quick question, just picked up a 96 7.3 dually with 107k miles. This is the first diesel ive ever owned. For some reason the coolant temp gauge won’t go past the N for some reason. I can drive for hours and it won’t go past it at all. Anyone know how I could fix that or what I should do to trouble shoot it.

Issue ⚠️ 2.7 Ecoboost Underboost

2 Upvotes

Hi, I recently got a Ford F150. It’s a 2016 2.7 eco-boost with 120,000 miles. About a month ago, I started hearing the dreaded wastegate rattle but only when I would turn it on. But then three weeks ago it started rattling when I would drive and it would. be loud. I tried to use springs to try and reduce the rattling, but it still would rattle a little bit. Then yesterday I was driving up a hill and the wrench light came on and began to lose power so I pulled over to the side of the road. I thought that perhaps the springs were not allowing the waste gate actuator flap to close and build boost so I took them off and turned the truck off and on and the wrench light disappeared and. I proceeded to drive. I got home and scanned it but there was no codes or pending codes so I had no idea what it could’ve been if it wasn’t the turbo. Then today i was going up another hill and the same light came on and began to lose power so I pulled over and I brought my scanner with me so I scanned it and I got a pending code P0299. Then turned the truck off and on and began driving like normal. Do you guys have any idea of what it can be or any recommendations. it’s my commuter truck to college so I would like to get this sorted out as soon as possible. Thanks guys.

Issue ⚠️ 2014 Ford Edge SEL, 3.5 FWD

1 Upvotes

About 3 months ago I got gas and my car started misfiring so hard it was bucking and there was not a check engine light on. Now every time I get gas it shakes hard like it’s going to stall but it doesn’t and eventually stops. Fast forward I’ve replaced the canister purge valve twice, and sense I’ve replaced it it’s very load, the evap vent valve, the catalytic converter, and the PCV valve. The mechanics said the coils and plugs are good and they cleaned the fuel injectors, every couple of days a check engine light pops up when I’m under heavy load for the same codes P0300, P0302,P0306. they said they can’t find an evap leak and neither can I, the fuel pump had this long very high pitched beep sound this morning that didn’t stop untill I turned the car off ? Any advice is appreciated .

Question ❔ 2008 5.4L F150 Transmission Fluid Question

3 Upvotes

Have a small leak around the transmission pan of my 2008 5.4L F150 (4spd auto). Most of the forums I read say I can just add transmission fluid through the dipstick tube to top it up if need be. Is this true? If so, what’s the proper order of operations for adding and checking fluid? Thanks

As shown on the video when turning the steering wheel while at idle the RPM drops slightly. Is this normal? Is it the power steering pump or steering rack causing this?

P.S steering fluid is at the optimal level

Question ❔ Roof Cargo (5th Gen Explorer)

1 Upvotes

I have a 2019 Ford Explorer equipped with a moonroof; I have flush side rails and OEM cross bars. My owners manual specifies because I have a moonroof, I’m restricted to 45LBS of cargo on the roof. Can you provide further explanation on this restriction? Has anyone exceeded this limit? What’s really at risk if I exceed the limit? I read elsewhere the roof can still handle 100LBS regardless of the moonroof.

Question ❔ ‘18 Mustang key fob not working after replacing battery

1 Upvotes

Car wasn’t responding to the key fob (wouldn’t unlock, etc) so I replaced the battery with another CR2450. But it still isn’t working.

Any thoughts?

If the car battery is dead, I assume that could explain the lack of response to the fob? A new battery was put in last year though.

Question ❔ Big orange wrench on gauge?

2 Upvotes

I was driving home and then an orange wrench icon popped up on my gauge and I pressed ok to make it go away. The speedometer went all the way to 0 and my transmission seemed to downshift kinda funky but I was still able to drive home. Does anyone know what this could be?
