    New Owner! Transmission heating up

    When my trans temp hit 220 degrees my f350 gave off audible / visual alerts. I was on a 8% grade, in tow status, in the slow lane 40mph @ 2000 rpm. Couldn’t do anything else besides stopping. That was a little over a year ago. Just RV toured upstate NY, VT, NH and ME with no alarms. Just saying...

    Yeah, I addressed the trans temps in my first sentence. Just added more to the conversation. Both trans / diff cover increases capacity 4-6 quarts and are not flat maximizing cooling via fins Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I cannot prove the diff cover along with the added 3-4 qt capacity had any effect on my trans temp when hauling 14k lbs. my common sense tells me the higher cooling capacity and lubricants equals lower temperatures and longevity of parts. I added Archoil additive to my trans. I may be wrong...

    Will not void warranty. Also installed an S&B cold air intake yesterday. Does not void warranty either. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Had the same problem with my 2017 F-350 towing my 5ver. Check out BD Performance Transmission Cover, increases capacity, use Amsoil trans fluid along with friction modifier: problem solved. Also upgraded my diff cover for more capacity. I’ve seen the difference. Sent from my iPhone using...

    2017 SD Gauge Stuck After Towing?!#*@!

    Try leaving your truck running throughout hitching and unhitching, it allows the truck to recognize the trailer is/is not there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’ve found that leaving the truck running while hitching AND unhitching allows the truck to “recognize” that the trailer is gone. Works for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Update on the check engine light. Went under the hood and i found that the 2 screws holding the MAF sending were missing and it was slightly out of place. Scrounged two screws, performance is back and CEL is out. Hummmm.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hello, I'm new to the group. I've got a 2017 F350 6.7L with 5000 miles and this is the second time the check engine light came on. The Ford service checked it and could not find anything wrong. The code was a P0402 excess fuel through the EGR. My Ford sync says it detected a misfire. Ford techs...
