    Truck Shudder when towing

    I would put my money on a junk driveshaft carrier bearing. I've gone through 2... it will wobble from a start, worse with more load on it, and then it will sometimes show up at 35 and 70 mph as well. If it's making noise, replace it with a Ford one, they're not that expensive amazingly... It...

    07 ford powerstroke code p0046

    Are you sure the solenoid is good? I agree it's highly suspicious that you'd have multiple PCMs that are bad. I'd check the wiring harness and the solenoid itself. Code P0046 is set when a short to ground, open, or short to power is identified in the VGTCV or wiring between the PCM and VGTCV...

    2017 Cruise control question

    Interesting... my 2006 does similar... it wanders all over the place. I thought it was because I had it tuned, but it might just be a really sloppy PID control loop in the cruise control. I never have found a cure.

    Bluetooth auto connect

    I've had it do that in my Mercedes as well, I don't think it's a sync issue, I think once the phone sees a link, it assumes you want to play music. Probably a bad assumption, but who knows. There's probably an autoplay setting buried 5 layers deep you gotta find... My want to hit the Android...

    Strange 2006 6.0 behavior cold

    I'm hoping the brass didn't make it down there, but who knows... Truck has been good on water in fuel, seems like since they went to plastic tanks, they don't sweat as much as the old steel ones did. I'm waiting for the weather to improve some so I can tear into it, check the Y pipe for cracks...

    Strange 2006 6.0 behavior cold

    I should also include, no white or black smoke that I was able to notice, and I was actively looking for it. I will say if anything, it might smoke just a little bit less.

    Strange 2006 6.0 behavior cold

    Hey gang, it's been forever since I've posted on here... my 06 has been running well and nothing beyond the normal maintenance issues... so that brings me to now. I have 90k on the truck, automatic, 5w-40 rp synthetic, and an SCT tuner with a canned tune. Truck runs fine. I did replace the...

    Changing the oil in the rearend and front

    Honestly, I wouldn't waste my time or money on the modifier... all it does is keep the clutches from sticking after extended periods of straight driving, like the highway. If you have over 20k on the clock and have taken it on wet grass, your limited slip is probably shot. Mine is. Auburn Gear...

    comment Did you know

    yep... had one in our 86 F250 for a couple months... drove us nuts at random. wasn't until the Rotor was pulled that the limestone chip was found. amazing how things bounce around.

    4x4 hubs not disengaging

    probably needs taken apart and cleaned and re greased. Not going to be under the 100k, that's engine only.

    Steering Stops

    Buddy of mine did that on his Highboy... you can get away with a lot as long as you're not in 4x4. Even when you are, you're gonna feel the wheel fighting you in a bumping motion. If you're gonna try it, take a little at a time. You should be okay, but look for obvious things, like will any...

    water in diesel

    I think there was a TSB on that problem.. I'm not sure if it was because of the heater or lack of, I've been lucky with mine so far...

    serpentine belt

    I hope the water pump is still turning the same direction as before... It's odd that the belt diagram wasn't the way the belt was routed.

    water in diesel

    I don't know that any of them will "remove" the water. It's still going to convert to steam in the injector which is the problem, along with possible hydraulic lock. Unfortunately, you're best bet is going to be to drain that pia HFCM...

    Question Need help with intake,turbo fart

    Sounds like EGR it goofing up. Air flow isn't going to make black smoke, only unburnable gasses, or too much of them, hence EGR.

    Diagnoses

    If the cooler is shot, when it's hot it could be letting exhaust get into the cooling system, hence the puking. Could be a crack that opens up a bit more when heated. You could have the valve unplugged, but if it's leaking or not seated closed, or one of the o rings is bad, gas will get by it.

    Question oil on boost tubes

    You're not going to get black smoke from oil in the tubes... sounds like an EGR related issue. Have you ever cleaned it?

    Diagnoses

    Man I really hate BS stealership mechanics... "wouldn't make the call until he found out if the reflash took"?? What did he do, plug it into the cigarette lighter? What crap. If it didn't take it would have errored out on the crc check, and secondly it wouldn't run either. It's not like it has...
