I have a whistling sound that sounds like it comes from the engine when I accelerate. Has anyone else had this?

Just the turbo whistle, more noticeable when cold and at lower engine rpm

When towing - loss of power or boost. No instrument indication as to why. Switch off & on, ran ok for short time then back to no power. Any reason why ???

Had similar issues with my work vehicle. 2016 px2. I tracked it to a faulty map sensor in the air box. They only $120 from ford which kinda yells you they are a weak point when priced that cheap. Have replaced two now. Sometime I get a check engine light other times it's just in limp mode without telling you. I've since found that if I actually wait till all the check lights go out before starting engine the problem hasn't been back. If I get impatient and just key it to start right away then all sorts of erronus data gets logged. Seems it needs a period before engine start of ten seconds to warm up sensor before correct readings occur. Hope this helps.

Thanks. Turned out to be at the service the lines were mixed up on the fuel filter. All fixed now.

My clutch Ford Ranger 2017 XLS Manual brought it in 2018 and later is slipping [ burning smell] told the agent in Wagga Wagga about but nothing was done only said it is ok and the same when the motor jumps when you slow up then speed up again in first or second gear again said it was ok Bull, but the clutch is not right as t had the same problem years ago with other vehicles that i own and i knew when the clutch is faulty also it has only done 29000 Km's

Insist the agent checks it out. Check for recalls on the ACCC website. I've had issues with the clutch, dealership could never find and now expected to pay probably $1600+, since it's no longer under warranty. Have been to Vic Consumer Affairs. Long process. Suggest you ring Ford Australia as well. then you will have a case number which cannot be ignored. Persist, persist, persist. Also make sure you keep records and if not provided ask for a printout each time the agent checks it out each.

They at wagga told me that it was the catalytic converter that when it starts it some smells like it BUT they have it on record now so if it does then they have to do something about also mine is also out of warranty, but they been told.
thanks for your reply and i will never buy a for again i have had two an auto which changed gears when no need for it and now the manual .

Just one last thing these Rangers were never sold in the USA between roughly 2013 to 2022 as when you look for parts for a 2017 model they do not list any, cheers

If it's a manual, find the gear box clunky and have issues although done less than 75000 kms. We bought because highly recommended at the time but would not buy one if I had my time over.

Do I need to run in a new Ranger Wildtrak before towing a middle size caravan? What would you recommend ?

Kiwidiesel
Kiwidiesel · 

Best thing for it is to put that caravan on and go. Best break in possible is at full load.

Wildtrak 3.2 auto thuds/clunks into 6th gear at about 75 -85 Klm/hr. Sometimes I completely lose 6th gear. This fault happens intermittantly but is happening more often. 2022 with 31,000 Klms. Dealer doesn’t seem concerned, they dropped a new program into gearbox computer. No change. Anybody had an issue like this.

Has anyone else had an issue with the engine coolant over temp alarm going off? Gauge on dash constantly moving always under temp never over.
2017 3.2l xl spacecab.
Coolant level is fine, sensor has been replaced (alarm went off straight away), pulled thermostat out Which stopped alarm for a week but has now started again! It’s driving me nuts as it beeps at me every 200-1000m at times.
One thing I have noticed is the noise from aircon under passenger dash has picked up. And I have used 4wd a few times we just aren’t sure if it was before alarm started. We’ve scanned it and no major codes come up. Any help would be greatly appreciated as the fuel economy has gone out the window because it’s always reading cold engine

Hey guys, at the moment i've got a 2015 Mk2 XL Ranger second hand, and wanted to do some modifications. Is it possible to replace the entire tub with an XLT or XLS tub or do I have to stick with the same model tubs to replace it. Sorry if this seems stupid, I'm just new to all of this and don't want to make any mistakes
