2011 - 2017 F150 5.0L Coolant Leak - It Finally Happened Upgraded Coolant hoses installed

[@billywalker9223]

I'm a GMC/Chevrolet/Toyota guy, but I do like me some Crown Vics and older Taurus cars. Anyway, I really enjoy your videos, as they teach me about things that I haven't been experienced with, and help with diagnosis of problems. You've also taught me what vehicles are prone to problems, which I've passed on to family and friends when they're contemplating the purchase of a vehicle.

Dorman for the win. Its sad when an aftermarket company has to improve an OEM part. I had to replace my coolant reservoir on my 2011 F150 and decided on the Dorman part because it was about $100 cheaper. That thing was built soild and is still holding up with no issues.

[@Andrew-n1v]

amen

[@michaelminauro4180]

Good stuff. Rich got a recall 2018 150 2.7 #24E12 the truck did set P430 Are you familiar with it.

Just did the same job and upgraded last weekend on a 2016 F150 with the 5.0L. Thanks for the video. Glad to see it's a common issue. As always thanks for the content and Happy Holidays!

[@robertmcdonald9280]

Happy holidays brother.

[@mlieser1230]

I've had good luck with Dorman's hard parts. The leaf spring shackle kit and coolant crossover kit I installed worked out great. Their aluminum heater hose connectors for the 3.8 GM engine fit like a glove.

[@chrisr.986]

Nice find!

[@chrisrossman9566]

Dorman stuff is ok, during the pandemic I couldn't find a leadframe for my 2011 6r80. I bought a Dorman one and has been fine. Fit and finish was just as good as FOMOCO. A lot cheaper and lifetime warranty.

[@snowfreak207]

Heck yea man thank you

[@AnishinaabeTrevorC]

Thank you as always Brother !! From Nova Scotia, Canada I know it says up to 2017 but I am wondering if my 2018 F150 5.0 has the same OEM plastic housing. I will look sometime soon. Merry Christmas to You & Family

Good ol Ford

[@RobertYonng]

Doorman make America great again. 😉😂🤣

[@bingobunga8995]

Didn’t I warn you Ford Boss Me? lol next thing will be the typewriter tick in the 5.0 engine being a bad lifter or failed oil pump.

[@Andrew-n1v]

Great film sir Rich. what is your opinion on the ford Dragon 1.5L 3 cylinder ecoboost on the escape and bronco sport?

[@FordBossMe]

It's ok

[@robertPharry777]

OMG PILE OF JUNK

[@jdotseven]

Same thing just happened to my 2016…

[@BobFord-i3n]

mine came apart running down the freeway. had it hauled to the nearest ford dealer for repair.

[@LandCruiserMidwest]

great American engineering - making easy for the consumer . Ford only going to issue over $3 Billion in recalls this year - go figure

[@kubeanie18]

this happened on our 2011 5.0 f150 pretty easy swap. we did install wrong temp t stat the first time lol..

[@N-M424]

Video from the future! How are you liking the large radio display upgrade?

[@SaulValdez-dn9di]

Good info and good video like always! Anyone can point me in the right direction to getting a "upgrated" new radiator. I have been through 2 Mishimoto radiators and would like a different option. Mishimoto has replaced the and honored the warranty but I have lost trust in Mishimoto. 2015 f150 5.0 Lariat with town package.. thanks in advance.

[@alb12345672]

Does this happen with the 6.2L? I am thinking of changing all the hoses around 200K, but they still look good.

[@kendavis1198]

P OAT COOLANT!

[@MatthewVillegas-m2m]

Would you buy a used truck from carmax?

[@FordBossMe]

Yes

[@dereksleeth4101]
