One was for an aftermarket tune. When she brought her car to the dealership to see if she could get a new engine, Ford requested a picture of the engine compartment. She claims they noticed her stock air intake, which was reinstalled, was much cleaner than the rest of the engine. Ford saw this and requested the logs from the ECU and determined that the car was tuned. The other was denied because the car was twin turbo’d.
Links?
He wasn't denied, never attempted to warranty it. He didn't want to be a scumbag and try to pass it off as stock after taking TT kit off. He was upset because he took it to a dealer to verify engine was healthy before going FI and dealer said it was when it clearly wasn't.
I stand corrected.
Granted I have not watched his videos but this whole story reads strange. If he suspected Ford didn't do a proper check of the car why would he then go FI? Wouldn't the logical step be to go back to that Ford dealer and call them out? I am assuming he paid Ford to check the car and they provided a list of items to be checked? Seems odd to try and fight it after the fact.
To tl;dr it as much as possible, the quest for content bit him in the ass. Had an event upcoming, opportunity came up to TT it, rushed to get it done in time for said event, likely without thinking through the implications of throwing it on an engine he was unsure about. He's also had 3 different Coyote setups so was probably thinking pricing would be comparable if the 350 went down only to get a rude awakening.
That’s unfortunate.
