Unhappy Finally got a call back from Ford...

Most of yal know about the misfire issue I have been having with my '11 5.0, took it into ford to get a few things fixed that they promised me and to look as the TSB on my cyl 4, cyl 7 and multiple misfire codes. Got the call today from the service manager. They are saying they already did the TSB before I bought the car. I had them replace the coil, plug and pigtail about a month ago to see if it fixed it. It Didn't. Onto what I was told today, he told me my compression on cyls 4 and 7 are well below specs. At this moment they are calling it a motor. I bought the vehicle CPOV and have a year bumper to bumper and 7yr/100k mile powertrain warrenty so I wont have to pay out of pocket for anything...this fucking sucks though...not honestly sure how I feel about this

They'll probably do a short block, or head work, maybe even ring it. But I doubt they put a long block in it. Gotta love warranty!

Already told me it will be a long block. I love warranty work also since I don't have to pay anything. Just want my car back.

Yes on a positive side I am very glad I don't have to pay for it but damn! I have had the car for just over a month...I am just waiting on a call tomorrow for approval from ford. Didnt know that these PCM have a setting to tell everytime the key is turned after everytime the PCM is messed with(ex- tuning, going to stock tune before going to dealer. It will show how many times the key was turned. Luckily I work at an automotive shop so I have tools the go into the PCM so they cant blame it on the tuner.

3 days? that would be awesome! My car was in the shop for 2 days for a damn LCA...

though, if it's the whole motor is should be relatively straight forward. best of luck!

I need a factory air box. Getting rid of the Steeda. Not going to chance the new motor with running the Steeda all the way home until I can put my tune back on.

You're already driving the fun stuff, Wayne. That's why you're broke!

Not sure if the 1 is the same as the 14, but if it is, http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/pts/4399440566.html
