Hello all. I always end up on this page when I Google so I've joined.


I have some questions about my 08 f150 that probably cross sections.
But I think it would be easier than have 5 different threads going.


I used to know some about vehicles and am a top gear fan. Used to watch tnn every weekend.


1. My 08 has 2 radiators, why?
I thought only engines with a turbo has 2 radiators. Also I've heard ford has a cooling problem.




2. On my 3rd vehicle since coming back to the U.S. in Aug of 08.
1 Dodge Journey 14 that went back as a lemon. 1 F150 14 that was totaled while parked. So I went with a used vehicle. Everything was great since Thanksgiving until end of Feb/ March.


*-So anyway, I got my truck back Mar, 27th with a new tranny and was covered under warranty. However On Sat I noticed the truck shakes uncontrollably and gives me backaches, headaches. Its worse than a rollercoaster. My face shakes!!. I called Ford and they said drive 100 miles and let the tranny re-sync since its all electronic. It is better and only shakes a little. But I feel every gear change, it lurches, like when the rollercoaster or a train car locks into the one behind it. Ford said its normal!!


*-- Also before the tranny died I put the pedal on the floor, air whooshing sound and reving but still only slowly speeding up. I can no longer burn out either. Ive raced my truck at red lights and used to smoked my friends little 4cly and now its even.
