    Replace 1 tire or both?

    The dealership didn't check road force when they installed the tires. After a week or so of driving, I noticed the vibration and had a local tire shop with hunter road force do a check. They were able to balance 3 of the 4 tires.

    Engine noise on cold start

    Can anyone help with what this noise may be? It happens on cold start and usually lasts 10-15 minutes. 1-2 hours after driving there aren't any noises. I took it in to the dealer the first time and they replaced the idler pulley & tensioner belt. Got the truck back and started making this noise...

    Synthetic Oil

    Sounds great. I'll get the lubeguard as well and add it. I don't have the warm idle tick so ill go with PUP 0w20. Regarding filter - should I stick with 10-48 or switch to 20-820? Is there any benefit of switching?

    Appreciate the info, Burla. I'll try the PUP 0w20 (can't find PUP 0w30) w/ the RP filter. See how that works out!

    Synthetic Oil

    Ah ok, makes sense. Really appreciate the reply. Regarding warranty, if i use RL 0w30, I'm guessing it would void the warranty? Haven't been able to find PUP 0w30 - only 0w20. I found Penzoil 0w30 but its the Platinum Euro full synthetic...

    Synthetic Oil

    2018 5.7 sport - Currently running RL 5w30 w/ RP 10-48. Would it be ok to switch to PUP 5w30 for the winter? During cold a start, the usual clattering for a few seconds but then quiets down. Ideally I'd like to stick with RL but I've heard it can cause MDS issues?

    BAKFLIP mx4 bulkhead leak

    Mx4 is leaking through the bulk head. Dealer installed and looks like the foam weather strip installed as per bakflip directions. I do have factory spray in liner on it.. Anyone have problems like this and figure out how to stop it?

    Any ideas as to what the noise could be? Dealership can't replicate

    Thats what I've told them and in their wisdom, they've said no. I will get them replaced as the dealership seems out of er.

    Any ideas as to what the noise could be? Dealership can't replicate

    I drove with the service manager this morning and the noise was more than evident. They serviced the front rotors again (3rd time in two months). Noise is mostly gone now - faint noise when applying the brakes.

    Any ideas as to what the noise could be? Dealership can't replicate

    u found this and this is the closest sound that I could relate to. When I apply the brake lightly, that noise goes away then a scraping/grinding noise is very noticeable from the front driver wheel area

    Any ideas as to what the noise could be? Dealership can't replicate

    Anyone know what this noise could be? Whenever I drive and coast (80km or below) or start to brake, this noise is prominent. It sounds like its coming from the front driver side. It doesn't make noise when accelerating but it does when it's decelerating and braking. Notice it a lot more when...

    rust or paint issue?

    got krown done on the truck today - 2018 sport and they noticed bubbles on the inner rocker panels on both the front driver and passenger (pic attached). Ive made an appointment at the dealership but some of the techs thought it could be a shotty paint job. What do you think?
