NEW RIDE DEEZUZ'z 2015 SHO

[DEEZUZ]

Need to do PTU in Exploder when it gets back from the shop.

Like change it or change fluid?

 

[DEEZUZ]

If mine doesn't grenade by summer. I'm going to drill/tap and install a drain.

I found some on the forums and the guys want $60 for some fitting and caps.

I have $8 here. Lmao. It'll make changing the fluid easier.

Sucking it out sucks and you never get all of it

Change oil. All explorers have drains IIRC and the newer ones, 2017+, have coolers and a vent line. I extended the vent line so I can force feed it oil via a syringe after draining.

How many miles on it

 

[Chester Copperpot]

82k. Had to have been owned by a soccer mom as the thing is MINT besides it's now 3rd deer strike (our first).

Here is our deer strike. 6k IIRC

 

[JeffsLightning]

147k. Changed oil top off ptu.

Sent oil sample cause I don't recall if I changed oil since 138k.

Well judge by the sample analysis.

Do you ever look at the oil life monitor?

Power transfer unit.

It's a transfer case.

Aluminum case full of gears and bearings.

No one changes fluid and they literally grenade

Boom. Curious why they only go up to 2015 though. Maybe that cooler was enough to make a difference on the newer years.

Please enlighten me, PTU ?

To clear this up, it's ford's answer to making a fwd vehicle awd. It's a power transfer unit.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Where are the blue calipers

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

ah, thank you for those who clarified.

 

[JeffsLightning]

Totaling?

No it's a 16

 

[GTPpower]

The ptu in our edge would leak fluid. The dealer replaced it under warranty at 55k miles. Never had any problems after that and sold it with 150ish thousand on it.

PTU? Like you can run a brush mower off this thing?

 

[EmersonHart13]

Turbo swapped yet?
