04 f150 fx4 4x4 problem
I jsut bought my truck 2 weeks ago.It has 95,000kms on it.When I got it the 4x4 would work.I took it to the shop to get looked at and found that the vacum lines for the front hubs were disconnicted.We got them fix and the 4x4 works great.But I was driving down the road the other day and a loud grinding sounds starting coming from the front 4x4 like it tryed to ingage or something.So I was sure what it was and then it did it again today.Did anyone have this problem or know what it could be.I am thinbing that this is the reason that the vacum lines wee unpluged.Any help would be great.Thanks

I have an 05 doing the same thing last night, went done a rough road and all I was a load nashing noise, slowed down and it felt as if something engaged and the noise went away. Thought I had hit something. Went out today and it did the samething, this time I engaged in 4 Hi and noise went away. Any insight would be great.

Just had this problem with my '06. Loud intermittent 'raspy hissing' noise. When I engaged 4HI it would stop. Took it to the dealer and they said it was the IWE solenoid, they replaced it per TSB 06-8-15. When I picked up my truck I wanted to make sure the 4WD still worked, it wouldn't switch into 4HI at all, but it would engage in 4LO. took it back to the dealer and they said it was the transfer case shift motor, they replaced it per TSB 06-9-8. Hope this helps.

Mine did that same thing one day twice the same day and never made any more noise. Three month later when I needed the 4wd the hubs would not engage. Dealer replaced the right hub assembly and another item but I forget what that was. This was over a year ago.I have not had any more problems with it. Now I check it every few months just to make sure they work properly.
