Wondering what I should be doing to keep my F150 running for a long time. I have a 2014 5.0 with 92XXX miles.I have had this truck since it was new and it runs flawlessly. I currently still have the original battery in the truck which I will replace before the weather gets too cold in my location. I am also aware of the issue with the antifreeze reservoir leakage which I check monthly and just simply keep filling it. I have done my brakes recently and the obvious tires , alignments, oil changes, etc. Is there anything I need to do that will help extend the life of my truck? Thanks in advance.

 

Read the owner's manual a few times, and follow the maintenance schedule using only top-quality parts (stay OUT of the zone) and recommended procedures. Haynes is very good for my antique, but IDK how it is for the newer trucks. I recommend NOT changing any parts unless they're due on the schedule, or they fail a published test. The only valid test for a flooded Lead-acid battery is a MidTronics high-frequency tester (used by most dealerships & battery stores).

 

I'm at 84k and my dealer recommended diff fluid change soon when I asked them about maintenance. (I was there already for oil and tires.)

But I did mine when I regeared to 4.11 a few years ago.
