Had this pop up yesterday. Been looking and everything I can come up with is I need to replace the sensor on the intake. I have a no limit stage 1 intake. Any ideas on what ms going on? Truck runs fine. I've had the check engine light on since I t**** and d****** everything. Any ideas?

Anyone got some info on this?

Just picked up a 2016 250 after being away from diesels for a long time...but how diesels have changed! Luckily (?) I'm rolling around in the Gulf of Alaska with time to kill between watches so I'm getting 'caught up' on modern diesels and planning out my trucks mod schedule.

Congrats... I had a KR '11 450, loved it & have a Platinum '14 250, love it more. Those have followed my XLT '03 7.3 I had. I loved that truck at the time. But, knock on wood, the 6.7s have been much better and all around great trucks. Though, with the nice technology advances of them, I recognize that creates opportunity for issues. But, so far I've del'd the ***, installed an intake & H&S Motorsports Intercooler (CAC) Tube upgrade (highly suggested) with good tunes on an SCT Livewire (more changes to come) & they've been great. I do wish I had your turbo setup though lol...one of these days I reckon.

Lol the first time i change the oil on a 11+ was in a truck withthe plastic pan and drain plug. I put a 5 gallon bucked under it and was right behind the bucket. The worst part was that it was about 3k over and just came in from a 400 mile run pulling a heavy load. Pulled the plug and got hit in the chest with really hot, thin oil lol

Are you supposed to be able to change radio stations with the "seek" buttons on the steering wheel controls on trucks with My Ford Touch? I can change sat. Radio channels fine with the dash buttons but when I press the seek buttons on the steering wheel it just automatically takes me to the Siriusxm preview channel.

Yeah, I made a big ass mess with the first oil change on my '11 I had. I didn't get hit with hot oil but, I did get a bath.

Yes, you're thinking right. The only time it should do that is if you do it through the touch screen or cycle through your media options using the media button on the dash. Seek on the steering wheel should only cycle through the presets of the media section you're in. At least that's how my '11 was and '14 is.
