    If I relied on the oil life monitor I'd be changing the oil at around 10K miles, which is twice the mileage I change it at using good brand full synthetic. If I were you I'd change the oil when the oil life monitor is around 50%. Water under the bride but I take the attached photos at each oil change to keep with my Xcel spreadsheet. I don't know, but doubt that Forscan would have that history.

    What scanner are you using?

    Welcome. For us to view the photos you'll need to convert them to .jpg format. Best to set your iPhone Camera to save in "Most Compatible" format and it will then be .jpg

    @doubleg2582 What sensors did you buy?

    Buying these sensors from Amazon or eBay is hit and miss - sometimes you get lucky. Never heard of multiple ways to set it to learn mode - could you describe the method you used with the hazard button.

    I also prefer to trigger them with the car set to relearn rather than wait for them to auto-relearn. Ford TPMS Reset Tool Tire Pressure Sensor Training Activation Transmitter

    Welcome. What sensors did you buy and from who/where? If the sensors are good the car will auto relearn the new sensor ID's. There is a procedure to put the vehicle inn relearn mode and use a cheap trigger devices to activate each sensor as needed.

    At 114K miles I've changed plugs twice without changing coils - if one coil fails I'll look at changing them all.

    I use a puck style pinch weld protector on my floor jack positioning it about a foot rearward of the side mirror and lift until both wheels have sufficient clearance and then put the jack stands at the marked jacking points and lower the floor jack. I also have protectors on my jack stands. If I'm working on something like brakes I'll leave the jack in place for backup.

    It changed on the later models - not sure at what year they moved to the PTU.

    FORscan. I doubt that this will resolve your reported intermittent issue - what you describe sounds like a bad connection. Scan for codes with FORScan.

    At around that mileage I did my serpentine belt, tensioner assy and idler. The friction damper in the tensioner wears and so does the bearing in both the tensioner and idler.

    Welcome. I haven't seen any reports on here with the problem you describe - hopefully someone else has and can offer advice.

    New part installed. The new part is a little stronger in the area that the old one broke. The repair to the old part held up well - very solid. New part is Made in Canada.
