  1. Introductions
    I just hit the first 350 miles on my first new truck. Hoping I can make this thing last at least a long time. I've read a lot of good things about the Ecoboost engines. A few things I plan on doing to help it last is keep up on oil changes (3k miles or so) and get it rust proofed. Possibly...
  2. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    I’m fairly new here, I’ve been on other forums, but there’s a lot going on here that I need to unpack, so please bear with me. In September, I purchased a USED 2018 F-150 3.5 XLT 4x4, and it was great for about 2 weeks. My truck is still under the factory 5/60 warranty (currently 57k miles). I...
  3. 2.7 Ecoboost F150
    We need help because something seems way off here. There were no oil leaks, no indications of problems whatsoever. Suddenly, the oil light comes on saying the levels are severely low. We pull over immediately (it took about half a mile to get to the right lane to pull over). Like I said no...
  4. F150 Ecoboost Maintenance
    I’m new to the forum and a new owner of a 2019 F-150 EcoBoost with the 3.5 EcoBoost and 4,800 miles. I’d be interested to hear from longterm EcoBoost owners with 200,000 or more miles on their truck. What oil change interval have you used and what oil? What motor problems have you had, if any? I...
  5. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    I drive a 2014 F150 FX4 with the 3.5 eco, almost 90k miles. Catch Cans, CAC hole drilled. I checked my oil which was all over the dipstick. It looked pretty low as best as I could tell so I added about a quart which brought it about halfway up the hash marks as best as I could tell. Even if it...
  6. F150 Ecoboost Maintenance
    Hey guys, new to the forum and to the ecoboost/Ford family. I just bought a 2013 FX4 supercab via a salvage auction, it has 87,000 miles but seems to be in real good shape. I am an engineer, and have been looking into as many things I can do to 1. Prevent carbon build up, and 2. Increase the...

    What is the recommended Oil for 2014 F150 King Ranch with 3.5L ecoboost?
  8. F150 Ecoboost Maintenance
    After looking at the recommended maintenance schedule I was surprised that it recommends far less oil changes, no coolant flush (change out after 100k) etc. I have yet to tow anything so I selected normal driving conditions and it just says change my oil when the oil monitor says so or at least...
  9. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    Needing some help on oil leak issue. I have had my 2015 in the shop on 6 different occasions trying to find out why my truck has a constant oil leak in showing in the typical rear main seal area. They have replaced the rear main seal a couple times, the oil pan gasket, and the latest was the...

    I use Amsoil. I dont think you have to use Amsoil, but use a good oil! Use a good quality full synthetic, and change it regularly! I thought this was applicable if you havent seen it. Turbochargers Create Conditions Best Suited for Synthetic Motor Oil
  11. F150 Ecoboost Maintenance
    I'm a newbie here so please forgive me if this has already been posted. I have about 2600 mi on my EB and was curious as to the different philosophies that are out there regarding when to change engine oil. The computer says I'm at 79%. That would mean I wouldn't change the oil till about 10k...
  12. F150 Ecoboost Accessories
    I posted this on the thread about catch cans for the ecoboost, but I feel like as many people should see it as possible, instead of just attaching it onto an older thread. Now I will say this, my truck has had this on it since 150 miles and I will say that the amount of oil is pretty mind...
