Eng Light & code

Hey guys,
06 F350, 158Kms. Just had truck at the dealer last week for I thought the last time...LOL
They did the VC-9 flush, new EGR & Oil cooler.
Today -32 and went to start truck, started but was hard. Eng light came on & stayed on all day. Ran to the city 150kms no issues with driving. Picked up my 28' TT and headed home. Truck started to act up with bucking & jerking while pulling a few small hills. Keep doing this on & off even on the flats. Pulled over & popped the hood. Truck had coolant all over. Never puked on me before even pulling the Rocky's doing 100kms/hr in the summer.

Anyway puking, bucking/jerking at 100-110kms/hr and 1 code. P0470
Anyone know what the code is for? It is going back to dealer next week but like to know before I drop it off all that might be wrong.

Thanks,

Check to make sure they hooked your FICM & Injector connections up right.

P0470 Exhaust Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit, I can't help with this, but this is what it is covering.

Good catch....didn't even see the OP's given DTC....I'd just pull the EBP sensor tube and blow it out (or make sure its not blocked or clogged)...and that it is connected....driverside exhaust manifold.

Thanks for the info guys. I was looking for the code sheets.
The eng light came on with first start of day at -32 so that may be why.

The new puking I dont know. Was nice and easy on the truck towing the trailer home. Didnt put my foot in it at all since it was so damm cold.

Dealer mentioned now that I have sys all cleaned up, new EGR & Oil cooler that the next weakest part let go. Heads.

Lets hope so, then she is pretty much rebuilt.

Funny, the temp is dropping and starting to see P0470 codes pop up. Here is a TSB on this code in cold temps.

07-18-4*** 6.0L - INTERMITTENT MIL ON AND/OR INTERMITTENT DTC P0470 - TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING

And I don't know why the puking.
