I can say I really don't like the performance of the truck with the AC on. Can't wait till it's tuned. Hope it will make a difference. It's been to ford for the shudder update and has the plate in front of the IC but I see it didn't help. Time to drill a hole. 2012 have u ever had this issue?
I had the shudder issue, but after a trip to the dealer and the plate on front of intercooler, I haven't had any more issues.

We'll for some reason mine resurfaced and now shifting in a parking lot is all whacky. Truck just isn't playing nice. I do have an appointment with ford before we left for the trip to look into the latest PCM / TCM to make sure I have the latest strategy before Tunning.

Just frustrating! Especially before she goes into the shop.

Luckily for me I stuck with the engine with a relatively low amount of problems, the good ole 5.0!! But I'd take that in to the dealership once you're home and get it looked at, no sense in letting it ruin a vacation brother!!

Thanks for the words! Not to concerned about the shuddering, going to drill a 1/16 hole in the lower point of the IC and hope the turbos will blow out the condensation. I do have an appointment for an ECM/TCM Update and hope this will address the shifting.

True that! Just around the coroner. Want to clean the issues up prior to major make over. Hopefully it won't delay my shop date.

I feel everything is a mod. So if by chance the engine goes pop, can you say "6.2"

Want to sub your build but can't find the thread. Can you hook a brother up with a link?
