Just an update now that it's very hot out: Intercooler seems to be doing its job. I picked up a Cobb Accessport and have started tuning with Alan Jackson at Edgeautosport. Here's a datalog I took during a hot summer evening in the 80s, charge air temps were in the 90s during a pull...

Do you happen to have the part number of the leaking axle? Or the part number of the other side? I think Ford's naming convention means that a later letter at the end is a revision of the part. I think my axles that had leaking CVs ended in A.

I'm surprised this is still happening on 2023s.

My oil change interval was 7500 with full synthetic on my other DI, non-turbo cars. Never had any issues. I would prefer to go roughly 5k on my STs, as they are driven hard, and my kids nap in them a lot while idling. However, if I were to do an oil analysis and it came back looking good...

Gotcha. Unfortunately I idle the car a lot while my 1 and 2 year old nap in the car, so it probably factored that into the oil life, which is currently reading 0% at 4k miles since my last one.

Sorry to bring up an old thread. Is this oil life meter just based on when it was last reset, and mileage, or is it actually analyzing the oil somehow?

I think someone did. I saw it on instagram. It also sounds like @adamst1124 was able to.

2020 B build here. My passenger front went out in October 2023, my driver front went out in April 2024. Dealership replaced both under warranty, no charge. They also did my FADA o-ring, but not the TSB. Is it likely that they refilled the front diff, since some fluid is lost during replacement?

Here's a little video I took during a WOT pull to redline. I did several back to back. Temps would be about 10 to 20 degrees above ambient during the pull. https://youtube.com/shorts/RFuAKy-qUF4?si=X8GB5J1LfCzZQzyE

I finally installed the ebay IC today. It went pretty smoothly, nothing unusual for an IC install on this car. The only hiccup I had was that the supplied bolt for the MAP sensor was too short. I had a feeling that would happen when I compared the supplied hardware to the Mishimoto hardware. A...

I don't want to speak to soon, but my leak seems to have gone away on its own. I'm quite confused by it, but I'm not complaining. I did do a trans filter and 5 qts of Mercon ULV back in November and reused the pan gasket. I noticed the leak in late April, who knows if it was leaking the whole...

Had an appointment with the dealer today, but their transmission guy is booked until June. Apparently this car has had some leaks at the output shaft seal and some harsh shift issues in 2021. The trans has definitely been out of the car at some point, possibly rebuilt.

Here's the passenger front corner. When I put a dry paper towel in that area above the pan, it came back with red fluid on it. Cooler lines seem ok.

I wish it was that, it would be an easy fix. I looked on the driver's side and the cooler area, it looked pretty good.

I recently found that I have a very small and slow leak in my transmission. I noticed some red fluid on the heat shield every time I drove. It would especially pool towards the rear of the transmission, sometimes even dripping slightly off of the back portion of the pan. I removed the heat...

Yes, it was. The transmission was leaking too, but they couldn't replicate it. Do you have any pics of your permatex fix?

I take it that they only replaced the O-Ring based on my invoice.

Does the motor have to be running when checking the transmission temp, or can it just be warm? Does the 10R60 have the same vent as shown here on a 10R80? I'm wondering what happens if the trans is overfilled: does it cause issues, or does excess fluid get pushed out this vent?

I don't have any error codes yet. I'm sure it will eventually happen as it is slowly leaking. Do you think the dealer will still address it, or make me wait until the code appears?

Any advice on how to make sure my dealer properly addresses mine? I have the leak at the FADA, which has made the engine oil pan shiny. I also have a leaking driver CV boot. Thirdly, I have a leak towards the rear of my transmission. I have a feeling it is the output shaft seal. The pan...
