08 Powerstroke-------13,000 miles bought 10/08 no probs---daily driver and I tow a 30ft 5`ver 10,000lbs on vacation. If I didn`t have the big trailer -wouldn`t have the diesel. You are right at the point to make a difficult decision. I`m sure my previous sentence didn`t help the...
Just an idea for you!! I had an 2001 Powerstroke and I found some Hella`s (if I remember right) 55 watt pencill beam lights at the time they were a lot cheaper then Piaa and put them in where the factory fog lights were. They never caused a problem with the factory relay/switch and I had that...
the display should say " exhaust filter cleaning" if you have the latest update --check with the dealer if you aren`t seeing that. Also the truck loses some power, sounds different mostly at lower speed 35-40ish when I notice, the regen with new update doesn`t regen below 30? 35?,the early...
Just found this out because I had to help push a friends 08 to a safe spot---some trucks have a fuel sending unit problem according to the local dealer-it tells the truck it is out of fuel-keep the truck above half (until the dealer gets the part in) and it should run if that is the cause of the...
Are they really manual hubs? OR do they have an auto or lock position on the hub? If it has Shift on the Fly--then the switch which is about a 1 1/2" circlular switch on the dash says 2wd/4wd and 4wd-low. If this is the case then the hubs auto loc when the switch is turned -the lock position...
I have an 08` F350 CC LB SRW 4x4 with the 3L=3.73 limited slip
Real world mileage for me is 18 empty no crazy driving moderate terrain 65-70mph and 12mpg around town. Loaded -which is pulling a 30` fifth wheel full 11-12K plus whatever I have managed to load in the truck bed- The worst was...
yep--my 08 hesitates at the light/stop sign/driveway/whatever if you hammer down the go pedal---if you roll into it not much lag.
Went for a ride in my buddy`s 08 with full spartan kit-dpf delete--cat delete--intake plus the 210hp tune --------Hang the F-on ---I was very impressed.
Now how...
While driving today my truck went into regen---I kept an eye on the display and when it was finished it did display the EFDC message , but it was only on there for 2-3 secs, so it is pretty easy to miss the message.
Took about an 800 mile trip with our 30' fifth wheel loaded--had a couple of regen`s in tow/haul mode and of course at the bottm of a hill. Overall--it wasn`t nearly as bad as I expected --even in regen it ran the hills well and there are some nasty hills running up the Oregon Coast.
Stock to...
When driving mine just seems to disappear or if it does display the complete message it is on there for such a short time I miss the message also.Even if I missed the message I don`t get another regen for quite awhile-so I assume it completed it`s regen while driving.
-this probably wasn`t...
As for powerboatr`s post (same thing kinda) --my 12v parallel camper batteries were setup on the solar panel trickle charge the same way--negative on one batt, pos. on the other --never a problem there. Then I pulled the batts out and when I put them back in I hooked up the panel on only one...
