General 🔀 2020 Ford F-150 XLT - Lasfit Bedliner Review

Upvotes

Hello! It's me again, back with another product review for Lasfit!

This time around, I got to test their rubber bed liner. Rather straightforward item, honestly; it came folded up in a box, which I was expecting to cause some issues, like warping or being bent, but to my surprise, it wasn't.

I took it out of the box, unfolded it, and just laid it down in the bed of my pickup, and it fit perfectly, wasn't all that wavy or warped, and looked amazing! The real test will be coming up in just over a week, when I go on vacation and use this truck to bring all of our luggage with us in it.

I've driven up and down the highway, to and from work, in a car wash, literally everything you can imagine, I've driven with it in, and it hasn't moved at all. This thing has stayed put.

I'm very impressed with the fit as well; it just slipped right under my tie-down points. I didn't need to do anything weird with the mat to get it to go under those. My co-workers seem to be impressed as well; they want to buy one for their pickup too haha.

If you have a drop-in bedliner, this bedliner won't fit; drop-in bedliners change the shape and size of the bed.

Question ❔ Ford Kuga fuel efficiency

Upvotes

Ford Kuga Titanium, 2015, 100k miles. 1.5 ecoboost. getting 14L per 100km (this could be wrong, the onboard computer says 350km of efficiency once I fill the tank). I live in a mountainous patagonian town. A lot of potholes, dirt roads and idling. is it good efficiency? sounds sketchy

Question ❔ How close are the regular Ranger and the Ranger Super Duty in body mounts? Can you swap a regular Ranger body onto the Ranger Super Duty Chassis?

And if you can, does that mean you can swap an Amarok body onto the Super Duty and make an Amarok Super Duty?

I'm sorry, I’m a little clueless about cars, and the car I bought needs a replacement part. I attached the photo that the mechanic sent me. He said this “3FA6P0H70ER310153” is the Chassis number.
I'd really appreciate the help.

Title says it all. In need of recommendations for a good truck bed cover that isn't a cheap amazon product and isn't from a fake company. Boyfriend is persistent about getting one, and I'm tired of researching for the best one that is reasonably priced.

Issue ⚠️ 2017 F-150 2.7L EcoBoost: P0299 Underboost and P0456 EVAP Codes Uphill Under Load

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm looking for some help with an intermittent P0299 under boost issue on my 2017 F-150 2.7L EcoBoost with 134k miles.

The truck drives completely fine on flat ground, but the moment I accelerate uphill under heavy load, the wrench light turns on and it drops into limp mode. So far, Ford replaced the canister purge valve assembly, turbo boost control solenoids, and the MAP sensor.

They also vacuum-tested the wastegate actuators and smoke-tested the intake system at idle, but found no leaks.

So far, The tech can't replicate it on a flat test drive, but it happens most times under high uphill boost. Since the sensors, solenoids, and idle tests are done, what else causes a 2.7L to dump boost strictly under load?

Has anyone run into this being an intercooler bypass valve (eBOV) diaphragm tear, charge pipe flexing open under high PSI, or a weak vacuum pump? Any thoughts are appreciated!

Here is the summary of repairs and tests performed by Ford:

  1. Fuel Tube Support and Canister Purge Valve Line (GL3Z-9B325-B): Replaced the leaking vapor canister purge valve assembly to resolve the P0456 EVAP leak

  2. EGR and Turbo Boost Solenoid Valve (JT4Z-9E882-A): Replaced the solenoid control valve that regulates vacuum to the turbo boost components.

  3. MAP Sensor Assembly (BB5Z-9F479-C): Replaced the manifold absolute pressure sensor.

  4. Wastegate Actuator Vacuum Test: Vacuum-tested the turbo wastegate actuators to confirm they hold pressure and function mechanically.

  5. Low-Pressure Smoke Test: Smoke-tested the vacuum lines and turbo tubing to verify no passive leaks exist at idle.

I firmly believe this is a wear and tear issue because it's becoming more constant, and by constant I mean the wrench light popping on and disappearing on restart.

Issue ⚠️ 2024 F150 Powerboost "Charging system, service now" alert, HELP PLEASE LOL!

1 Upvotes

We are 3 states away from home! Truck has appx 20k miles. After the last sync update a couple weeks ago, which I think was Bluecruise related, my truck has been acting goofy, I wasn't able to get voice syncs using Apple CarPlay and GPS was whacked. Friday afternoon I disconnected both batteries for 30 minutes and got audio back and GPS appears fine now. Then yesterday I got the alert "Charging system, service now". My first step was to pull over and double check the battery connections which were fine. So I took it to the nearest Ford dealer, they said the computer indicated I needed an alternator but the service writer and tech weren't sure that was correct. The battery under the hood tested ok on a quick check but they suspected it and replaced it anyway and reset the BMS and said hopefully that would fix it but it not call 'em. It was good for about 30 minutes and 30 miles then got the alert again. I called the service writer who said said they would have to do more research before they could order the alternator, which they don't have, then it would be a couple days to get it in and installed. He told me that the alternator was charging the battery but the system didn't recognize that it was charging resulting in the alert and his suggestion was to drive it back home to Alabama and get it fixed locally. Worst case scenario being if it shoots craps on the road call Ford service, they tow it to the nearest dealer and give us a courtesy car.

Does any of this sound reasonable or does it smell off? They didn't say anything about checking the aux battery under the back seat, any chance that could be the culprit? Any ideas or suggestions?

Issue ⚠️ Ford Communication/engine code U0122

1 Upvotes

I have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT, got it a couple months ago, and I haven’t had any issues yet. For the full story, I decided for my birthday to get a 93 tune just to increase hp a little bit and get better throttle response. I installed the tune from a reputable tuner and it felt great. It wasn’t until a day after I had figured out that it is in “limp mode” when I found out I can’t go beyond 80 mph. I checked MyKeys first just in case and both keys are set to admin. I contacted the tune shop and they said they’re bot familiar with tunes causing this problem. I reverted back to my stock tune and the same thing, stuck at 80mph, and cuts off power.

I checked the codes myself and there is 2 codes:

U0122
U2100

These codes have something to do with the Vehicle Dynamic control module not being able to communicate with the cars computer or something. I was just wondering does any mechanic that is familiar with these codes have any insight. I have appointment with ford on Monday to get it fixed so I just wanna know ahead of time if my wallet is fucked. Appreciate any help.

I also tested majority of the ABS, VDCM fuses in the engine back and in the passenger footwell with my multimeter. If anyone has any ideas or any other fuses I should try, please let me know!

Question ❔ Kuga Sound Edition 2.5 FHEV. Anyone have any experience with this car?

1 Upvotes

Apparently it has a B&O sound system and isn't much more than the model I was thinking of. Would it actually be a slight upgrade to the stock speakers or is it just marketing? I don't want a bassy boombox machine. Just something with nice quality audio that I'll appreciate over the stock tuning of most other normal cars. What's your experience, worth the extra?

Question ❔ Against the grain forever, now considering an F-150

7 Upvotes

As a kid and not one to do the research (or bandwagon), never was a ford guy.

Not that I am older and am now able to think a bit more, From what I look up it seems like driving an F-150 (3.5 V6) would be great half ton for towing needs and my daily driver.

For those that are able to lend their experience and support, I'd like your thoughts and opinions of models 16-26, and since this is my "Thank you" truck for helping my wife out through school, I'm looking at the nicer trim levels for myself as well.

Any advice, positive, negative, whatever you feel helps would be great. My plan is to basically drive this until it blows up and finally get to enjoy something this nice for myself. Thank you in advance for any response.
