2015 2.7 . Anyone feel like it pulls down or like a miss up a hill. As soon as I stomp gas goes totally away up a hill. I don't guess I should say miss or shutter but wanted to see if anyone else had that issue. New to turbos. Last f150 was a 5.0. I have seen some people say turbos spool water and when you step on it cleans out mist.

I have a similar problem. At first, it felt like a miss but the vibration,miss, or whatever it is, continues even in neutral. The dealer has the truck now. They are going to check driveshaft balance and pinion alignment. Another suspicion I had was possibly a problem with the differential lock. The tires were balanced and they also re-installed one of the tires onto the wheel to try to get it balanced better. Hopefully, they will get it resolved soon.
Forgot to mention: 2.3 L eco boost, 4X4

Mine only has this feel on a steep hill. Not driving normal. Also it goes away as soon as I push gas pedal down father. Almost like needs shift down or what I read with other post in 3.5 that cooler condenses water and that blows it out.

I drive 230 miles twice a week through several mountain passes where the valleys get as low as 4200' and the summits get near 7000'. The speed limit is mostly 80mph but drops down to 75 or 65 in some of the passes and my 2.7 has never done what you describe on any of the climbs.

Minnesota doesn't have the largest hills but for those that we do have I've never experienced anything like that.

To be honest, I'm often amazed that the 2.7 is able to hold 6th gear while the boost gauge slowly increases when going up inclines.

Please keep us posted though, certainly would like to hear any outcomes (hopefully positive) that you experience with this.

Thanks guys. I never seen the boost gauges as I only have the 4. In screen. But I was just concerned where most my driving is stop and go if that was build up. Truck is only at 350 miles.

I've never had an issue at all wth my 2.7. And I drive it rough all the time lol

mikead150

Haha that could be problem. It don't do it if you run it rough . Just if you don't mash it down. Haha
Leaving on a 2000 mile trip the 16th. Maybe it just needs ran.
