Nope, runs great no smoke. Took it to the dealer this morning and it was a quart low in 2 weeks since the cam phaser job. So either he filled it wrong, which I doubt after talking with the tech…he’s been doing it for 37 years…seems very competent. In addition he spends all his days doing cam phasers and engine work…Ford is a mess when it comes to quality…they must have insane profit margins to pay for all the warranty work and still make $?
Next step is we are gonna see how much oil it goes through in 500 miles. If it burns more than 1/2 quart, need to open up the engine and see if they’re seeping through the valves. Ford sees 1 quart oil burned per 1000 miles as within the range, which I think is a load of horse crap, I have a Toyota with 240kmi and doesn’t burnt a drop.
We’re looking to get rid of the MAX ASAP, before the warranty for sure. Our only option is going to Suburban or Yukon XL as we have a big family and need the space.
