I'm not very well educated on how check valves work or anything like that. I might actually do it though just in case. Any warranty issues with doing that though?

I have thought about buying the new updated valve and hose assembly, and replacing the hose I had to cut to put the second one in, that's my OCD though. Likely I should get it just to satisfy my paranoia as well.

Gotcha. My dealer hasn't said anything about warranty, I'll ask next time I'm there, my guys are pretty decent, and I can't imagine them being concerned. Maybe a dealer with OCD might try to, but then they have to prove it caused a problem.

As an aside, the 2 valves I used are not the OEM ones, these are YG360 valves, still a Ford item, but not the same as the ones they were replacing then, and there were a number of failures with the OEM replacements. The new updated ones, I haven't heard of any failures, but that doesn't mean there hasn't been. Just have to wait and see.

Just a quick update to close the loop on my situation. Dealer replaced both IWEs and check valve under powertrain warranty today. No questions asked - Based on some of the stories I read here, I'm extremely grateful to have a great dealership. Issue seems to be resolved, no more groaning/rubbing when hitting the brakes coming to a stop while in 2HI.
Fwiw, they confirmed they've been doing a lot of them lately and said they haven't had any back since performing the new TSB. Fingers crossed!
