  1. Per Ford (officially) the 2011-2019 F150/Mustang 5.0 “Typewriter Tick” is a normal characteristic

    Ford is saying its "normal" and they know this affects so many cars with everyone questioning it, why do they not just come out and say what it is? If it is normal then it should be an easy explanation to put everyone at ease. It would seem to me that there must be something they are hiding.
  2. Per Ford (officially) the 2011-2019 F150/Mustang 5.0 “Typewriter Tick” is a normal characteristic

    I have had a tick in my 2018 since day one (have had it exactly 2 years and 2 months), I find that it only starts to tick about 5 minutes after initial engine start, then once it hits full operating temp the tick is completely gone. I haven't noticed any loss of power nor any strange engine...
  3. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    Makes some sense, Although "normal as they say" should be nothing worried about on their part which means they wouldn't have anything used against them in court. You would only worry about saying Normal if in fact its later proven its not normal (smells fishy)
  4. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    Lol, Not gonna argue this with you. One can tell that obviously by my comments I don't know if it is or isn't causing an issue. All else is irrelevant. Was merely looking for possible reasons why Ford hasn't tried to debunk the issue. I do appreciate your responses, does help one in...
  5. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    As my last comment mentioned "whether its normal or not" no way to tell, I never mentioned I have proof nor said it was degrading the motor (its a possibility) . If its not a big issue then not sure why Ford wouldn't shoot down all the negative publicity around it as im sure it must be...
  6. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    What does it matter? surely matters if the issue is degrading the motor at a quicker pace than normal wear and tear, which would also mean a chance of failure a lot sooner after warranty expires than a motor with no issue. of course this is going on the whether its normal or not.
  7. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    I would assume if its normal then why doesn't every coyote motor have the tick? Would that mean that the ones without the tick are the bad motors? Makes no sense to me. I can see the point in warranty claims but when the dealership is telling you its normal its pretty damn hard to get a...
  8. 2018 Typewriter/BBQ Tick

    After watching so many you tube videos on this subject and for the most part each owner is being told its normal, If so why hasn't Ford released an official statement regarding that? They cant be that stupid not to know there is major issues and questions surrounding this.
  9. Wheel Spacer help. What would be my options for 20-25 mm spacers for a 2018 pp1 with magneride

    I just chatted with American Muscle, They are saying the same thing regarding the studs being to long on a PP1/Magneride build
  10. Wheel Spacer help. What would be my options for 20-25 mm spacers for a 2018 pp1 with magneride

    Thanks for the reply Active, Any reason why CJ would have this wording on their site?
  11. Wheel Spacer help. What would be my options for 20-25 mm spacers for a 2018 pp1 with magneride

    From what I can see on CJ Pony parts, their available billet Aluminum (hub centric) spacers will not fit a PP1 with magneride due to increased length of the original wheel studs ( I would assume that's all spacers out there). Any help with options would be great, Thanks.
  12. Some help if possible please

    I have the digital dash with the performance pack gauges in the middle of the dash (Vacuum and oil pressure) I know they are supposed to light up with the colour selected for the main display, anyone have any idea as to why mine wont light up with the selection? it stays in the "light"...

    COTUS Question I just received 2 COTUS updates within an hour of eachother by email, both say window sticker has changed.. Any idea what kind of change that might be?
  18. A question on PP order (Doesnt sound right)

    I have seen quite a few with the spoiler delete that's for sure. I prefer to have the pedestal gives it that different look.
  19. A question on PP order (Doesnt sound right)

    Thanks for the replies. I ended up calling Ford Canada and they said judging by the build (part #'s and descriptions "Large Spoiler") it is a typo on the window sticker. I can somewhat breathe now.
