I recently purchased a 2015 f150 Lariat crew cab 2.7L eco boost. I had the grill changed out and the dealership had to replace the leather on the passenger side dash. After I got it back, there is a air sucking sound on the driver side whenever I press the accelerator. Of course, as usual, the dealership can't hear it (the body shop guy and the service writer can, but not the tech) I even had them drive a new one... Exact model and you couldn't hear that air sucking sound at all. I took it to another dealership... Both techs hear it, but says it's the way the turbos sound. (Turbos wine but don't sound like an hair leak) Does anyone have any advice or a similar issue?

Thank you!

 

Post the vin#, I'll shake Fords dbase tree and see if anything falls out.

Not to sound rude at all, but my Vin# shouldn't show anything about the problem I'm having. And to post it on line wouldn't be a smart thing to do. I thank you for the attempt to try and help though.

 

Why not lol.

What could possibly happen in a negative way for you to post your VIN.

RNL used to be a Ford tech and could find out if there is a TSB. You do know what that is right?

 

he didn't ask for your social, he ask for your vin. You could pm it to him, and not "post it online" or you could get a lot of uneducated guesses at why your truck now hisses at you.

 

You can send a PM (private message) only to him with the vin #. You know if you look at your windshield lower left corner. The vin # is visible right there from the outside on EVERY car and truck on the road today.

 

Guess I should have explained the why, as mentioned I am an ex Ford tech and I also have access to what is better known as OASIS (Online Automotive Service Information System), it is a tool for technicians to gain information about a vehicle drivetrain, color codes, build date, etc... By inputting the vin# and symptom it runs a check on already known issues and possible cures. That's about it.

You can always pay for access to said system yourself by following this link https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Home/Index

Good day.

I would have to disagree about the turbo whine. I had a 13 and you could definitely hear the turbo whine, but one of the first things I noticed in my 16 was the lack of the turbo whine.
