  1. 2.0L ECOBOOST & HYBRID Owners: Is an occasional oil smell just a Maverick "quirk"?

    It still takes fluid to lube the trans regardless. So it will have a breather just like an 8F35
  2. 2.0L ECOBOOST & HYBRID Owners: Is an occasional oil smell just a Maverick "quirk"?

    Now that I think about it. I wonder if it is the vent off the transmission. It vents to atmosphere under the airbox
  3. 2.0L ECOBOOST & HYBRID Owners: Is an occasional oil smell just a Maverick "quirk"?

    I've done all the services on my since new. I own a repair shop. I completely remove both skid plates. Never leave oil behind
  4. 2.0L ECOBOOST & HYBRID Owners: Is an occasional oil smell just a Maverick "quirk"?

    I have noticed an oil smell with my 24 FX4 since it was new. Usually at idle or when idles for an extended period of time. (When coolant temp is over 200) No leaks. Granted I did install the UPR dual catchs cans at 400 miles. They are closed catch cans and do not vent to atmosphere. I use...
  5. 245 vs 235

    Yeah Headlights, taillights, painted the grille bar gloss black, Lariat grille. Kinda liked the XLT grille better but I wanted it to look like a Lariat BAP FX4. All thats left is paint the mirrior caps gloss black
  6. 245 vs 235

    I use my pickup in the mountains snowmobiling. The ground clearance and extra traction was needed..not everyone does
  7. 245 vs 235

    The extra height definitely makes a difference for looks
  8. 245 vs 235

    I went from a 225/65/17 to a 235/70/17. 0.4 inches wider 1.5 inches taller and that was my results. A loss of 4-5MPG. A 245 would be 0.8 inches wider than stock so even bigger loss. The loss of torque is noticeable too
  9. 245 vs 235

    2.0 EB
  10. 245 vs 235

    I went to a 235/70/17 Goodyear Workhorse AT and a HRG front level kit. Lost 4 MPG. Not sure if its just the tread design but definitely hurt it. Lost about 5 MPG towing. I would expect the 245 to loose even more
  11. Seafoam in crank before changing oil?

    Your GDI engine puts enough gas in the oil to keep the engine clean with regular oil change intervals. Not needed in my opinion
  12. Maverick Photo Winner of the Day!!!

    Here's mine...
  13. Leveling verses lift kit

    Could you get a picture of your pickup directly from the side? Gonna level my FX4 Maverick with the HRG kit. Going to buy those wheels. Stuck between 245/65/17s and 245/70/17s. Yours looks clean. Mainly concerned how filled the wheel wells are. Thank you!
  14. 2026 Maverick ... additions

    A vehicle first advertised as affordable and simple has grown into not. 30k now for an XL. 42k for a Tremor. Pretty soon all this "fancy stuff" people want are gonna make the maverick a 50k rig. A unibody, light duty "pickup". I love mine, but sure glad I bought my 24 when I did. One optioned...

    I believe the tremor isn't rated at 4k due to the smaller radiator because of the Tremor bumper. As well as the Tremor having softer suspension not as well suited to tow. The 4k tow package adds a larger radiator, lower final gear ratio, and a transmission cooler

  18. Lariat headlights swap install onto XLT?

    Perfect thank you so much! Happy Mavericking I'll get the grille bar back on when the black paint drys lol
  19. Lariat headlights swap install onto XLT?

    Thank you for the reply! Yeah I figured I could do that too. I was checking wiring diagrams through Identifix (I'm a mechanic) and I see no wiring differences between an XLT and a Lariat. (As far as headlights/turn signals. So I assumed it was done through software. I also looked and the XLT and...
  20. Lariat headlights swap install onto XLT?

    I also put Lariat BAPs on my XLT. Bought a used set on ebay. Would also like to know what Forscan changes are needed to shut off the park light function in the turn signal lamps on front. I did the forscan changes and the DRLs work. But me being OCD and wanting it like a factory Lariat I...
