Highest Mileage Coyote

Well it was one of the highest mileage Coyote motors. I just changed it...oil pump was weak and I didn't want to get stranded. I was able to change on my terms. 343,000 miles with dealer maintained truck. Still looks new!

OEM oil. Dealer changes
I would have to look on plug changes, best guess 4 or 5?

All orig internals?
I did not think the timing chains would go that far.

I have 110K on mine all DIY maintenance and I plan to keep it a few more years
Only engine stuff I changed was Rad hose o rings and some emission part I forgot the name of
and the rest is all normal fluid changes

181.3K Miles Currently

3rd owner. Parents bought it as 2nd owners at 2 yo and 89k miles. I think I've dropped about $11k in the last year alone on repairs and maintenance. Laundry list of stuff done.
  • Rear Main Seal
  • Water Pump 2x
  • AC Compressor
  • Oil Sending Unit
  • Gas Door Hinge
  • Thermostat Housing
  • Cooling Hoses
  • Drive Belts
  • Transmission Control Module (failed after recall deadline)
  • ACM (radio module)
  • Air Temperature Control Valve
  • Driver Seat Switch
and probably other repairs I don't remember.

Lots of maintenance along with routine oil changes and tires at dealer.
  • Coolent Flush
  • Transmission Flush
  • Break System Flush
  • Replaced coil packs
  • 2x Spark Plugs
  • Breaks 3-4x
  • Countless Batteries
I just got it from the dealer for the TCM, ACM and Seat Switch. Still have what I call electrical gremlins even after an electrical diagnostic. Looking at another battery (3rd within 2 years or so). I'm starting to feel like the coyote rangler.

Overall, great truck. Hoping to get that 300k miles out of it.

EDIT: Seems I also for got to mention towing miles. I don't know the exact number, but the 1st owner hauled highway. My family and I hauled cargo trailers and RVs with it regularly. It also has what's probably considered excessive engine hours on it, too. It's been idled a lot over the years.

Beats me. I took it into the dealer just over a week ago for the TCM replacement, but I wanted a thorough electrical system check first. Dealer said things were fine except the ACM and the seat switch (which I told them about). Walked out to a dead battery after not driving it since this past Friday. Mad is an understatement.

I've read about parasitic drains, but I don't know what could possibly be going on. It's a new issue, especiallyafter thunderstorms keep setting off my factory alarm that was installed by the dealer a few years ago. I'm replacing with a dealer battery Monday (AutoZone ones prior) and see what happens.
