ok i have a 2013 echo boost that started showing a check engine light and the turbo started making a funny fizzle out noise...then the truck started to loose some power later..then it went to a kind of cold start rattle..i was addressing all issues as they were coming known to me..the big money came when i took it to dealer to address this cold rattle they kept telling me was a common issue...ended up with a timing chain change and they told me my engine had sludge buildup and was not fixable( 102k miles )...they repair was amazing for about 4 days then the rattle came back and lost alot of mpg again...call dealership again and was told the slight ticking was common...now my truck has a constant rattling and mpg is awful...power is also awful...lm at a loss for what to do next...crazy to think my truck has under 120k miles and is getting a death sentence

 

Sorry to read about your issues. I also have a 2013 eco boost. I purchased mine used, with 64K miles. I immediately put a DYI catch can system on mine, to reduce the buildup on my intake valves and driver's side turbo inlet (secondary vacuum source). It's amazing how much gunk the can collects! Was it the driver's side turbo that the fizzle noise came from? The inlet side fins may be crusted over....who knows. Should be throwing a code if it's running so bad.

 

OP is an obvious troll. Been getting a lot of these type first time postings lately.

As a side note, not that it matters, I also have a 2013 3.5TT. Not one single issue in 63000 ish miles. There is no proof that a condensation jar condensating crankcase gasses into water, fuel, and oil does anything to help or harm an internal combustion engine. These crankcase gasses have been going back into intakes since 60's or 70's and re-combusted along with the fresh air and fuel. 'Catch cans' or condensation jars/containers belong in the racing world where non-dilution of the air and fuel mix is needed.

 

good old echo boost

 

 

You have not had any problems because you don`t have a echo boost like the op does

 

I do think that could be the problem Ken, he is hearing the Echo

 

You mean echo boost boost boost boost boost

 

what or Who is a OP?

 

im on this thread because i was lead here by my Google search and seen alot of post about the same issues im having. im currently talking to "ford customer support" to see if there is anything i can do about what i was told by the ford dealership mechanic that attempted to fix the issue in the first place. its odd that i paid the 2000$+ for a timing chain replacement and its literally back in the same shape in weeks
