  2. 50k Mile Service - my DIY notes & results (2022 Maverick FX4 + 4K Tow)

    My 2022 FX4 + 4K just rolled 50k miles over the weekend. I bought this truck new in November 2022. It is my daily and I must say I'm still very happy with it! In the wintertime, I tow a two-place snowmobile trailer most weekends. In the summer, I rarely tow but I will do some occasional...

  3. Transmission Flush or Drain and Fill (Context)

    Goto the other shop! You don't want to flush an 8F35 trans. It has a sealed internal filter that you cannot change without dropping the transmission and tearing it down, so a flush is definitely the wrong move. Make sure they use Mercon ULV fluid and nothing else! Here is a great video of the...

  4. Transmission Flush or Drain and Fill (Context)

    Hello all I recently had the rear drive unit replaced on my 2024 Ford Maverick XLTAWD tow, it has fixed most of my issues, but I’m still having a clunk when shifting every hundred shifts or so, it feels like it’s below my seat or the backseat and no, there’s nothing under the backseat in the...

  5. Maverick Hybrid Brakes Completely Ruined After Towed Behind RV

    I had this exact same thing happen to me with my 2024 Ford Maverick Hybrid Lariat on June 7. Apparently this is a known issue and can happen as the result of several things on the mavericks. I googled "2024 ford maverick hybrid in neutral tow had the parking brake engage and ruined the braking...

  6. 🛻I Ditched My Nightmare 2020 Ranger for a 2024 Maverick Tremor

    I hate you had Ranger issues. Glad you like your Maverick. My father owned two different Rangers, granted they were a 97 model and a 2010 model and not the new ones. I drove them a ton when I was doing different things around my house when he had them.

  7. Members who seem to disappear

    One has to take the negativity on a site like this with a grain of salt. Seems the negative can cause some to move on. Maybe because they traded or just because. I bought a 2012 VW TDI and the forums were full of posts about additives and so forth to keep your high pressure fuel system from...

  8. SOLVED! Issue after disabling auto start stop on 2026

    I suggest having the dealership have a look under warranty if you're still experiencing the beeping after reverting everything back. Here's an AI generated explanation on why to use the OBDlink EX adapter: The OBDLink EX is widely considered the gold-standard adapter for doing FORScan mods on...

  9. Ford CEO Jim Farley’s Right To Repair Comment

    It's been getting more difficult for independent repair shops to fix cars for quite some time now. Very interesting to follow a channel like Royalty Auto or Car Care Nut (extremely good mechanics) and see all the tools they need to work on cars now with 10,000 modules, many of which are being...

  10. Maverick Lobo Autocross Testing & Handling Upgrades

    The autocross season is underway, so it's time for a quick Maverick update. Changes for 2026 Tires Last season I ran Firestone Indy 500s. This year I'm running the updated Indy 500 V2 in a 255/45R20. Unfortunately, there still aren't any competitive autocross tire options available in a...

  11. $22 for a 10 or 12 oz can of something Ford wanted me to use.

    Lol, no iam a boomer, guess we do things different. I blew my filters out with compressed air, good to go. I never rotate tires. All 4 always look the same so I think thats a waste of money. All ive done to our mav so far is 5k oil changes. It has 46k on it. No issues.

  12. Is 4k Towing Package Worth It

    More cooling is always better. If you're going to tow anything, may as well get it. It wont hurt to have it, but it can hurt to not have it. Difference there is the Hybrid deep sleep issue is an annoyance that has workarounds to fix it, the 8f35 failure is a $7000 smack in the face that can...

  13. 2026 Hybrid - Driving in Econ Mode

    I agree. I don't trust the 150,000 Mi transmission fluid change recommendation. Now you're into the marketing department. You don't want to Market a car, that's going to need more maintenance than GM or or Toyota..

  14. 2026 Hybrid - Driving in Econ Mode

    The Hybrid Transmission fluid is only good for 50,000km (35,000miles) as per the severe service interval provided by my dealership.

  15. 2026 Hybrid - Driving in Econ Mode

    That is a scary thought, you are right they knew the pinto issues. I still don't trust Ford entirely. Or any manufacturer, the whole lifetime fluid or 150,000 mi change for transmission fluid seems crazy. I know that there are people that swear that changing the auto trans fluid on the hybrid...

  16. "Park Brake Limited Function, Service Required" after truck rolls backward toward a drop-off

    Regarding the failed engagement of the pawl and EPB it appears. Can you find a slope (this would be good for shop testing too, easier to find the issue if they can cause the problem) that matches where it happened? If you sit in vehicle after stopping, and just slip to Neutral - does it really...

  17. "Park Brake Limited Function, Service Required" after truck rolls backward toward a drop-off

    Well - the rep could only state they had not received communication from the truck. They can't discern if there is a modem issue, they are getting nothing from the truck. So there easily could be no codes about the TCU. If you disable that system - that happens. If you never had it setup - that...

  18. "Park Brake Limited Function, Service Required" after truck rolls backward toward a drop-off

    Oh yes, it should have been found !!! Scanning for codes is something totally different than scanning and testing the CAN buses which, after an update by a dealer, is supposed to be done. At least my dealer does it. A ten minute update will take almost an hour...which I'm willing to wait...

  19. "Park Brake Limited Function, Service Required" after truck rolls backward toward a drop-off

    I just got off the phone with the service manager at the dealership where I bought the truck. It's going in next Wednesday for evaluation. He told me that the Park function on the transmission is a mechanical pawl, but that engaging and disengaging it is controlled 100% electronically. He also...

  20. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Washed and waxed mine with Ceramic wax. I always wax the glass and headlights as well. Then due to trans and battery issues it spent 2 days again at the dealership. Found out I may have a junk transmission that will need to be replaced. The joys of Ford ownership! A huge regret.
