Losing water and oil from exhaust, white smoke. Vehicle losing coolant from exhaust pipe. Hard start. Acts like high pressure oil, blows lots of white smoke out of exhaust. Installed ids/ computer and installed coolant pressure gauge in line on cooling system. Monitored ect/eot and coolant pressure.. Got vehicle to normal operating temp. Ect/eot were at 15 degrees difference which is maximum allowance for oil cooler temp.ford recommends it be replaced when it reaches 15 degree difference. Also recommend replace egr cooler with oil cooler as a set. Perform tsb 09-08-3, test degass bottle-ok. Egr test on vehicle passed, installed pressure gauge. Road test for head gaskets - 21 psi in cooling system failed. Performed turbo over boost - test passed. Failed items: head gaskets, oil cooler. When tearing apart need check concern with high pressure oil system. Estimate to repair around $7000 which neither ford nor dealer, legacy ford, will cover under warranty. What is the warranty for if not to repair ford's junk? So now an expensive truck sits unusable because of ford and they have lost a long time believer in ford vehicles, this is my last ford.

Bought vehicle used in nov,2011. About 4 months later started having problems with engine power. Was told by ford dealership that I bought it from would need to rebuild engine, should be covered under extended warranty (involved egr, gaskets and bent head bolts). Call ford extended warranty people. Refused to pay anything. Now truck has about 96000 miles on it and the truck is stalling out while driving down the road, took back to dealership again, was told that the injectors are the problem now. Decided to check out recalls on this veh. And found out several things (1) that ford had a recall for the injectors and (2) that the problems before were probably caused by this. Called the recall center at ford and was told that VIN # did not match up to any recalls, even though it was on 180000 05 ford f250 sd. Was also told to check with extended warranty that is also through ford. Once this is fixed will have more money invested in this and rebuilding engine 6 months ago than the truck is worth. No more fords for us.

It took several times before I could crank my truck and once it was started it smoked badly but did eventually clear up. It spit and sputtered on the way to work so I dropped it off at the mechanics shop. The mechanic inspected it and the fuel injector module was bad. I researched the recall list and called the ford dealership in mobile, al based on the recall list to have the problem repaired; gave them my VIN and was told that my vehicle was not included in any recalls. The dealership offered to repair the module for $900.00 however the federal safety agency id # 05v270000 says there is a recall concerning this issue.
