Hey I'm in Calgary as well! Sounds like a misfire. Probably a shadow code stored in the ecu. I wouldnt worry about it unless it came up again.

I'm going to let the service manager at my dealer take a look at it, just for safety sake. I gotta go back to calgary on friday so I don't want anything happening

Ya I'm sure it was a few gremlins thats all. Had the same symtoms on my 335i when it was almost new. Car just started running rough like it only had 5 cylinders firing stopped at a light and it almost stalled. I shut it off and restarted and it never came back again.

Yes, I have had the same issue and my new 2011 ecoboost is sitting at the shop waiting for Ford to manufacture the coil, which is not scheduled to start until August 31, 2011.
I was driving home and accelerated to pass the vehicle in front of me. The truck bogged down, shook violently and the check engine light came one. The coil fried and took out half the converter.
sounds like a design problem to me and I've written to the Ford CEO.

I picked up my new F150-Lariate-Ecoboost, Plus Package, Captians Chairs, Chrome Package with Black and Tan Paint yesterday afternoon. I of course took it out for a little cruising, with no issue. So heading into work this morning just set the cruise control at 68Mph and enjoying an early morning commute when the truck gave a rather severe jolt and then began to run rough. Then maintenance light (Wrench) came on and the power dropped way down, I pulled off the highway after coasting a short distance when the engine quite alltogether. I had no gauges in the red and no other warning that I could see, so after a minute or so I tried turning it over to see if it would start, which it did not. I called Ford Road side assistance (very nice/helpful) and asked for a tow. After about 20 minutes of reading through the user manual I tried starting it again, this time it fired right up...I was only 10 miles away from my office, so I decided to try easing along the highway, which was fine for about 8 miles until the symptoms came back and it died again, at least this time I was able to coast off the highway and stopped on wide shoulder on the off ramp. Right now the truck is at the closest Ford Dealer waiting on a diagnosis. Has any one else had simular problems?

Sorry to hear that. I have read about some folks having injector issues and I think one guy had a bad spark plug. Others have had the coil go bad. Any one of these could cause the symptoms you describe. Hopefully it's nothing major and you will get your truck back soon. Good luck.

I had a similar issue the day I picked up my FX4 Ecoboost. I got it to my local Ford dealer and after about eight hours they had it fixed. What they told me was that it was an airflow sensor. I'm assuming it had a bad Mass Airflow Sensor but not completely sure. It ran fine until I have a little goose to the throttle and then it just stuttered and wanted to die. After the sensor replacement my truck has been running like a dream. I have about 3200 miles on it now and getting better MPG every day.

Thats what mine did, the service manager checked the logged code and he was like oh so you were going pretty fast hey? cause I had accelerated a bit to merge off the on ramp or whatever, like yeah its my fault that it misfired, a hole.
