As posted above some more insight would be helpful. Transmissions usually give you warning signs before just all of a sudden going bad. Would like to hear a little more background leading up to this failure.
Hate to hear that. For one, with yours Iām assuming being out of warranty I wouldnāt even bother taking anything to a dealer. Iād make some calls to an actual transmission shop or any shop in general and Iād be willing to bet youd be able to get one installed for half that price.
You can always start with checking the boots and see if grease is starting to come out along the shaft, vibration is definitely common when it comes to this. Can always go by a tire shop too and make sure the tires arenāt out of balance
I think thatās the point heās making lol Maybe to the majority of members on MTC it isnāt 150k, but Iād be willing to bet a lot of Maverick owners have no idea this site even exists but if you are strictly going off the Ford recommendation, it is 150k.
From the little bit I watched he seemed like he was being honest about his review, and with the amount of miles heās put on it in the short amount of time and him repeatedly saying he loves the truck thatās gotta tell you a lot. Iād be ecstatic if I get 200k out of mine with the only major...
I get what youāre saying, the ārakeā is going to be subjective obviously but in my years of driving and having various cars the majority or people think any vehicle looks better leveled. Again I get itās subjective and Iām sure people donāt mind it not being leveled and thatās fine. Anything...
I donāt see how a leveling kit would affect gas mileage at all, all itās doing is raising the front end a inch or so to match the rear, you arenāt adding any weight to the vehicle. People do this because it looks better, if somebody put a poll up Iād be willing to guess the majority would say it...
Judging by the things he was doing with his truck on prior videos heās put out Iām not really surprised the trans went out when it did. He was definitely putting his to work, a lot of driving and a lot of towing and other various things. Iām not mad about it though I like seeing how things hold...
I know what youāre talking about, unfortunately thatās my only gripe about the adaptive cruise. If you set it going down the highway and somebody decides they wanna whip in front of you real quick the truck is gonna basically slam on brakes in the middle of the highway. Have to really pay...
I added the moonroof when I ordered mine in 24. I really enjoy it, I use the tilt and open the back glass. Gives it a nice little breeze inside without rolling down the windows.
Not gonna lie, I think both trucks look hideous lol the maverick imo and not being bias just because I have one but looks the most like an actual truck
Maybe yours does, but mine doesnāt. I tested different rolling speeds on my way to work not 30 mins ago. The rear wheels donāt engage over a certain speed.
So if the display is accurate once you get over 25ish mph the rear wheels arenāt being used anymore at all. Even if you go to pass a car going 35-40 itās all FWD. So what I think whatās happening is once you get to 13 mph mark itās when the transmission shifts into 1st and at that point itās...
I changed RDU fluid in mine and it didnāt make a difference. It is odd that it doesnāt make the noise at low outside temps.

Because at cruising speeds the Maverick is basically a FWD. Once you drop into the low gears the rear axle will re-engage and go back to an AWD mode.
if you look at the AWD screen on the dash you will see that the rear wheels are not used after getting up to speed
