Uh, no. There have been some with the drilled holes still having the issue.

Not to mention, wwest/wwwest/911/996/etc etc etc posted all kinds of wacky bs. To say that stating the obvious, that "drilling a hole drains liquid", fully vindicates anything he posted is WAY off.

In this case it's more like poison ivy than a tree.

I don't think planting a terd works the same way.

I'm surprised the mods haven't stopped this yet. Come on guys, let the thread stay on track...

Well...mine has finally done it, 22K on miles. Drove from Texas to Ohio and back through rain the entire time. I noticed it after 4 hours or so of driving. Could get it to repeat pretty much on command on both trips. No way i'm taking mine to the dealer just so they can block off the intercooler and de-tune the truck. This is my first Ford and im actually pretty happy with it but this would be a wreck waiting to happen with the trailer and car on the back. I'm really interested in this now to see if it works.

Worked for me on my 12, I know some will argue and say there is no way.
