It’s on the upper portion of the filter housing and is covered in a cylindrical heat shield.

I'll check this weekend, thanks.

Do you have to remove the heat shield in order to inspect the fitting? Am I correct in assuming the best way to inspect is to remove the front drivers wheel and look in from there?

Off subject...not caring one bit for this new forum format...

agreed on website. Sometimes makes the site seem unusable, slow, shifty, just one of those that frustrates you so you just close it

I swear Ford trucks are made by an entirely different company. Have a Raptor and it's by far the best overall vehicle I've owned or been around.

Agreed, I’ve got a 16 SuperCrew Lariat that I love and has been completely trouble free inside and out.

Had to replace mine after 8 track days and 6 months of ownership. Started leaking at the track. Used 3 quarts just getting to my dealer. The fixed, no problems. Love the car and beating up on Porsches and BMW'S

Can you tell me exactly where the leak was coming from? Were the threads still intact and tight and it was leaking from the housing of the sender OR was it leaking due to loose threads? I can't imagine the threads coming loose with the sealant compound on it. Mine is completely dry around the threads.

My 2016 has 15K miles and started a slow leak a few weeks ago. It was so slow I did not notice it, but my wife did when she nearly fell on her ass in the garage! The dealer put in oil dye and confirmed the oil leaking from the oil pressure threads, and then sealed the threads with teflon tape.

That is not what service bulletin recommends do a search and print it up, it will probably come loose again. Always check here before you let the average ford dealer touch your car

Ford TSB 17-2271.

Google Ford TSB 17-2271.

It never surprises me how a little some Tech's bother. Instead of taking the time to do the research and fix the issue accordingly. It is hard to find a good tech that gives a damn.

What size socket does the EOP sensor take? The parts list on the TSB shows a 27 mm. I didn’t see any specialized socket listed.

I did this my self but I cant remember. Thought I used an O2 (7/8=22mm socket). But if the TSB says 27mm that's probably it. It just needs to be deepwell. No specialty socket needed.

It would be great to get some photos of the leak or where the EOP sensor is located?
