Hello All,
I have a 2019 F-150 3.0 Turbodiesel with just over 10K miles. I love the truck and could not be happier. This past holiday weekend I did a lot of towing. About 600 miles with various trailers and loads. Most was highway. On the way home with a small trailer load of an ATV, the truck seemed to lose power and could not maintain cruise control on light grades at 75 mph. It would down shift to 6th gear and could not keep speed. I would have to intervene and press the pedal to the floor. Later in the day with an empty trailer the truck threw an MIL. I scanned with ForScan and found it was a P2457 - EGR Cooler A Efficiency Below Threshold. I cleared it and it returned the next day after about 75 miles of driving with a trailer load of 4000#. I cleared it and took it to work today without the trailer and it returned again after about 75 miles of driving. ForScan photos attached. It does not seem that the truck is lacking power anymore but Im not sure if the two events are related. I haven’t taken any of my vehicles to a dealer in my 25 years of driving and would like to keep that streak going. Any thoughts or ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
