I thought about going to an independent shop myself, but the factory ford warranty I'll get for the block is worth it in my opinion. The advisor said anything goes wrong with the engine it's covered. But I've had some negative dealer experiences too so I can see where you're coming from lol
The Ford dealer quoted my around $8300 for parts and labor, and that's with the advisor helping me a bit. The car should be done in a few days or so, so I don't actually have a sheet breaking down all the costs, just the final cost.
Seriously considered this, but it's noticeable when you drive so I think they'd offer me less for it. That along with car prices right now would put me in a similar position financially if I were simply to try to sell and get into another Mustang.
I'll try calling a Ford CSR rep. Yeah I decided to go long block because I would not have the peace of mind ever again if my engine were torn down.
It's a 2015 so by about a year. And I'm at 55k miles.
You're right. But I think it's safe to say that the relative compression test show there's something wrong there? They also switched around the plugs and the issue stayed at 8.
Definitely asking for a leak down test tomorrow. Do you know what the possible outcomes of that can be?
Thanks for the reply, I'm not too saavy when it comes to in depth workings of an engine.
So I can ask them to do a leak down test? What would be the other outcome if it's not going into the crankcase? If it's going somewhere else would that mean something else is broken?
Hey guys looking for some advice here. Yesterday car threw a Cylinder 8 Misfire and Misfire on Startup code. Took the car into the dealer and they said cylinder 8 has low compression(see pictures). I was hoping that at worst it would be the Intake Manifold issue thats pretty common, but it...
If i remember correctly mine hover around there as well and fluctuate just a little bit. Once its warm it drives fine, but when its cold its not that great, but I think thats normal.
