How Much BETTER Has My 2022 Ford F-250 Been Than My LAST One?

[@zachtenhundfeld7208]

The truck suddenly becoming louder could have something to do with oil. The 6.7 is picky on fluids. The old ford diesels ran great on Rotella. The new ones prefer MotorCraft 10W-30 with a MotorCraft filter. Also be sure to add a good fuel additive- the CP4 is an expensive ticking time bomb. I would recommend a disaster kit for the fuel system.

[@NenadTrajkovic]

Rear lights that fill with water and destroy sensors and cameras... Well done Ford!

[@CarswithNash]

Somehow I missed when you got this. I thought you still had the old one. You should put AGM batteries in it, they are sealed and can handle loads better.

[@jay-em]

They have different charging voltage though.

[@tschuuuls486]

I'd assume you can code the bcm to accept it. Those are standard across Europe because everything is start/stop since ~2011 here.

[@cajun869]

​@@jay-emWRONG, don't spread nonsense! AGM's charge at 14.7 volts max. Exactly what my 22 charges the CRAP Ford OEM batteries at. Odyessy's will be in my future on this truck. FYI, For 15 years, Odyessy's have started my 03 Duramax flawlessly.

[@Tempsho]

You might need the shims that increase caster angle. Common fix that dealerships won't entertain doing because it's not a 'factory approved' fix.

[@SteveBassen]

Yep, solid axles with insufficient caster angle on the steering knuckles are basically like shopping carts with the wobbly front wheel

[@williamwhite9767]

My new 2000 F150 XLT Supercab 4x4 5.4L went 105,000 with only the right rear axle seal needing replacement. The seal cost about $7 at Ford and I replaced it myself so the total cost of repairs for that truck was the seal and the diff fluid in 105k miles. Diesels are problematic.

[@pig9r]

DEF usage and regen are not related. Yours will regen every 500 miles or sooner if soot load is high enough. While towing it will passive regen, but will still do an active every 500 minimum, just won’t be for as long. You need to switch to 5w-40 T6. Much better temp range and might quiet it down again. Your fuel issue on your last one was probably the secondary fuel filter breaking - a known issue.

[@dmayse1000]

U need a top side creeper... check ur turbos and down pipes. And try sealed agm batteries

[@Vincent-396]

You are a dork, like me. I have taken odometer pictures for decades. I love that truck. Nice purchase. 👍🏻

[@danielgloates5903]

John Ross as someone who works at an auto parts store, no it’s not diesels, no it’s not ford, batteries have just gotten worse in quality over the years. I’ve been in the game for almost 4 years now and since our manufacturing moved to Spain from Mexico about 2 years ago I get about twice as many batteries returned within a month as faulty. The only ones that are perfect 99% of the time are AGM batteries and in my store most of them say made in Germany

[@attilaplays]

Hotshot secret Everyday Diesel treat in every tank and diesel extreme once an oil change. Had my cummins for 120k miles doing over the road campers, and it purred just like the day it came off the lot brand new. Audible difference compared to my buddies truck that never saw any additive. Try some, and see if the tick goes away :)

[@RealSuburbanCowboy]

I stick an old hard drive magnet to the oil filter. I might not see what it attracts, but at least it is there.

[@kentmckean6795]

Your battery leaking on top like that may be a simple as the acid level is overfilled. Take a look at the levels and lower the level a bit (just make sure the plates are covered).

[@bradleypollack5658]

I just Bought a Truck from Carmax in Merriam, KS and it was an amazing experience!!

[@jshsharp]

The noise in the drive thru is normal "Typewriter tick". My 2020 does it randomly but got a lot better with Rotella T5 10W30 instead of the Motorcraft oil. The noise is caused by the relationship of the engine cylinder block crankshaft journals bearing inserts and the oil film. This relationship may allow a vibration that resonates through the cylinder block and is heard as a metallic ticking noise. The noise could be described as an irregular ticking or clacking sound like random typing on a mechanical typewriter. This condition has been present in diesel engines produced for the last 20 or more years. The overall noise reduction in engines produced today makes this noise seem new when in fact it was masked by other noises in the past. Many manufacturers such as Isuzu Hino Mitsubishi and Nissan report a similar condition in their diesel engines. Testing and engine teardowns with this condition reveal no condition that would affect reliability or durability of this engine.

[@KeithZim]

The fact that people spent $20 to $30k a year to daily one of these without ever hauling more then a fart boggles the mind.... I know, I know, I am a small minority. 🤣

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

No, you're not alone.

[@slscamg]

Same here. You’re not alone. I don’t understand. Even the guys who drive 1/2 tons to make a dozen Home Depot runs a year blow my mind.

[@mobeydick37]

I'm with you. A gasser would have been the better option in his case. 16,000 miles a year for $10,000 higher starting price then a 20% hit on the fuel cost is just ignorant!

[@williamegler8771]

The owners obviously wanted one and it is their money to spend however they please. Why do people drive SUVs? An overwhelming majority of them never drive on anything other than wet pavement or maybe a little snow and before the advent of the SUV craze people drove regular sedans and station wagons and never had a problem getting around. If people want to drive a Cowboy Cadillac and pay for it is their prerogative!

[@christopherpilkington8375]

I own a Ram 2500 Cummins and I primarily use it for truck stuff like hauling and towing my travel trailer. I have an Audi A5 as the daily.

[@billylemire5469]

I towed probably 10-15k with one of these regularly for work and we ate def like it was going out of style too

[@mikekenyon3322]

back in the day, we had issues with Preludes with Michelin tires, torsional nibble is what the Honda Engineers called the issue.

[@glassvial]

Patiently waiting for the hood struts to go bad.

[@denreed17]

JR, cheap free funnel; roll some light cardboard in the shape of a funnel. Works prefect!

[@jeffrey.lebowski]

Those are Johnson Controls manufactured batteries, they along with East Penn and Exide make all of the different brands of batteries. You can tell they are Johnson Controls by the two large vent caps on top. JC batteries very commonly are wet on the top and then eat into the hold downs. The East Penn batteries are identifiable by the totally flat tops with no removable caps and a vent at each end. EP batteries won’t leak like the JC batteries. Auto parts store battery manufacturers seem to vary by region by It seems in the Midwest that Oreillys and Napa are EP, Autozone and Walmart are JC.

[@jeffrey.lebowski]

Interstate batteries are typically JC and leak whether purchased from an Interstate dealer or Cosco. Sam’s was selling Duracell batteries for a pretty good price and they were nice EP batteries, not sure if they still are.

[@wernerdanler2742]

Have you checked the valve clearance? I'm assuming it has solid lifters? Some of the lock downs may have come loose, throwing them off. That will make it noisier if the clearances are off. It is a nice-looking truck. I have not seen your friend for a while. Gabe, if I remember right?

[@brenspin]

Gabe made a cameo at the very end of the previous Tesla video.

[@jeffsauer2198]

I use Rotella T6 in almost all of my vehicles and off road toys... surprised, being cold weather season, you didn't use the 5W-40 instead of 15W-40....

[@slscamg]

I love O’Reillys, but I will never buy oil or filters from them. They’re so expensive. It’s Walmart for oil and rock auto for filters. Saves big money.

[@Midnight-yh6cb]

I got 42k miles on my f350 lariat ultimate srw. At 37k miles I got death wobble after I took my 24x14 wheels off. Turns out it was the track bar bushing that was bad, took the track bar out and got a new bushing pushed in and re installed, no more death wobble! (I also use the truck for snow removal and have a leveling kit installed so that’s just more stress on factory components) Another problem i recently had was the factory battery’s started to leak, not sure what caused that but I replaced them. Also my screen goes blue sometimes while in reverse… not sure what it is but doesn’t last longer then a few seconds. Other then that I love the 22’ heavy duty ford trucks.

[@JasperTW-NL]

Check the exhaust manifolds. Seen some of these trucks with warped manifolds pretty difficult to see

[@billylemire5469]

Have you ever considered Amsoil? I run it in my 200k 7.3 and run 15k intervals and it runs great. Save some money they say their filter is good for 25k too but I always change with oil at 15

[@mobeydick37]

I've run Delvac1/Mobil1 since new in my 01 F250 7.3. I changed my oil at 100,000 miles [replacing the filter and topping it off every 10,000] the first two changes then started full changes every 10,000 miles. Over 477,000 miles now and still running great!

[@fastsilverado]

Amsoil Adam would be proud.

[@marktate2683]

Taking those mileage pictures is cool till you realized you put 200k miles on a 2017 Civic that you bought brand new. (I am over 208k now 😢)

[@bkdauto]

Gately audio makes an awesome sub box that fits under the backseat

[@Dave-in-MD]

The battery is not leaking, you are seeing vapor coming out of the vents. You should look at the charging system and what is causing the batteries to outgas so much. Also, you could not have bought Fomoco batteries from O'Reilly's. Fomoco branded batteries are installed at the factory and are not available anywhere else. Ford batteries that are available to be bought are branded Motorcraft. And those are avaliable from O'Reilly's.

[@t20594]

Put cheap AGM battery in it. Sealed battery I think they run the alternator a little too hot.

[@DanielEvansMusic]

Louder engine sounds like could be a sticking EGR valve? Had same on a much smaller diesel but it was suddenly much more "clacketey clack", was stuck EGR.

[@sccarguy8242]

The most important mileage milestone pic you must take on any car is…. 80085

[@Bossbugg90]

I liked the big ram bar in the front of the Ford Platinum

[@brandons9398]

I have a 2000 F250 super duty with the mighty 7.3 L diesel. No damn DEF! I also use Rotella T6, good oil! But use a royal purple or Baldwin filter. They are the only American made filters left in the country, And they are definitely an improvement over Wix, that are now made in China…

[@floridaguardian8264]

Right when you started to pour the oil, I knew you were gonna miss it’s happened to me. This build oil goes right in between the foam insulation hard to clean

[@OneDrewfourYou]

I utilize a compound oil. Ideally it takes care of tick sounds... 🙂

Pretty sure new trucks are 10w30 or syn5w40 might be your noise. They probably took the pilot injection out over the air. That is what Volkswagen dieselgate was about. Remove pilot injection on dump runs.

[@cameroncampbell686]

The real question is what are your thoughts on the 6 speed vs the 10 speed? I like the newer trucks but I can’t get past the constant shifting while towing anything heavy with the 10 speed. IMO the 6 speed is a superior transmission

[@Tool0GT92]

I have a Chevy HD with the 10 speed Allison, when towing my toy hauler I never find it hunting gears.

[@jefftuckercfii]

@@Tool0GT92 - It's got to be something in the programming of the control unit for the transmission. Maybe just a little too tight a tolerance on finding that optimal engine rpm.

[@_RiseAgainst]

Are you an older fella? I often wonder if gear hunting bothers those raised with 2-4 speed transmission the most.

[@gsppuffer]

10 speed is actually a beast but it's fucking quirky for sure.Put 37 on mine and usually just Locke into 8th on the freeway to stop the constant hunting

[@michaelreynolds1904]

Hopefully that increase in diesel noisehas nothing to do with the CP4 pump starting to implode.

Might be the oil viscosity, ford specs 10w30 or 5w40

Also I think that the oil changes intervals are too long.. oil is cheap engine repairs not
