  1. Ecoboost random dead battery

    yo doug - i know you all are having hybrid 12v battery issues but this is an ecoboost thread. what load is being put on the battery in an ecoboost besides auto start/stop? Ive had that disabled since almost day one. with the hybrid i assume ford has some wacky stuff going on - but with an...
  2. Ecoboost random dead battery

    Update: took it to the dealer and they replaced it with a new AGM battery. In and out in about 2hrs. want to give thanks for Bryan and Ghandi at Gator Ford in Seffner, FL for always being super nice and accommodating.
  3. Ecoboost random dead battery

    Wife went to run an errand this morning and the truck turned over slow and started clicking. Jump pack got us running again. Any idea how the dealer will handle this? Is this a quick in and out? 2022 EB purchased in 7/22.
  4. 2.0L engine cover from Lincoln Nautilius compatible on Maverick Ecoboost?

    Please stop putting these on your engines. All they do is trap heat and accelerate plastic aging / wire fatigue. You have harness connectors that will age faster with more heat trapped around them. Engine covers are the dumbest thing manufacturers have put on cars and they should all be sued...
  5. Engine Cover installed in 2.0L Ecoboost Maverick engine bay (From Escape)

    Anything trapped under that cover will accelerate the aging of the plastics and wiring. Wife has a Lexus that came with one of those - the entire top of her motor is now brittle plastics that break if you look at them wrong. NC Miata's have these - and on early models the wires on the...

  8. Do your own oil changes (avoid dealer service)!

    the 5000 model. however it worked with my 240sx, my friends 350z, and I think it will work with my miata as well.
  9. Pennzoil platinum full synthetic vs mobil 1 advanced full synthetic oil in 2.0 ecoboost engine

    if its under warranty im going to run whatever meets manufacturers spec. for me thats the quaker state synthetic 5w-30. oil change every 5k pair that with the OEM Ford filter i have nothing to worry about engine wise for 5yr/60k miles or whatever the warranty is.
  10. Short Oil Life

    direct injections is more likely to push fuel vapors past the rings direct injection ruins oil quality faster turbos have oil passing through them turbos cook the oil faster the combo means that even after a few thousand miles an ecoboost oil will stink like fuel and look super dark. id say...
  11. Do your own oil changes (avoid dealer service)!

    Quickjacks with a set of SUV adapters is pretty good - just make sure you wont hit your garage door opener! And for those of you whomstest dont want a dirty floor - dont use just an oil catch pan - also grab one of these: Its a much larger pan - you can put your oil pan on top of it...
  12. Short Oil Life

    Yall with ecoboost engines should be changing it more often than recommended.
  13. Aftermarket wheels / tires installed: Konig Heliogram 18x8.5 + Kumho PA51 235/55/18 tires

    looks too small. for a street tuner look you should have gone up an inch or two on the rim size.
  14. Intercooler by Fast Mavericks

    but - isnt an intercooler a 'heat sink'? why would we say goodbye to that?
  15. Was my Maverick sold out from under me despite my order?

    No point in jumping to conclusions. Still may be in transit. IIRC an ordered vehicle will still show as 'for sale' as an automatic listing on the major car retail sites. Keep your cool jeff'e.

  18. Dealers keep calling me about available Mavericks (Denver metro area)

    However - this is simply supply and command. Carvana (or Vroom) doesnt have to pay me a dime over MSRP - yet they do. Why does Carvana offer to pay me more than MSRP? Because they can sell it to someone dumb enough to buy over MSRP and banks willing to lend over MSRP. So in actuality who is...
  19. Dealers keep calling me about available Mavericks (Denver metro area)

    My 2023 base hybrid just showed up a few weeks ago - already sold it carvana for $3500 more than I paid for it.
