Keith Browning Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 We have an new 2006 Super Duty with a V-10 that seems to have too strong of an idle. This truck jumps when you let off the brake. The idle stays around 850. This is also a "fly by wire" throttle system. Anyone see this yet? On Edit: Apparently the 2006 models are not set to trigger the following SSM on OASIS yet! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif OASIS SPECIAL SERVICE MESSAGE NUMBER: 18156 MESSAGE TITLE: 2005 ALL VEHICLES WITH GASOLINE POWERED ENGINES - HIGH IDLE AT LOW MILEAGE APPLICABLE VEHICLES : 2005 CAR : 00015 CROWN VICTORIA 00044 GRAND MARQUIS 00071 MUSTANG 00082 SABLE 00092 THUNDERBIRD 00094 TOWN CAR 00117 TAURUS 00122 FOCUS 00124 LINCOLN LS 00164 FORD GT 00165 FIVE HUNDRED 00166 FREESTYLE 00167 MONTEGO 2005 TRUCK : 00016 E-SERIES 00026 EXPEDITION 00028 F-SERIES 00029 F-SERIES LD 00067 MEDIUM TRUCK 00070 MOUNTAINEER 00081 RANGER 00106 NAVIGATOR 00110 EXPLORER 00126 EXCURSION 00130 ESCAPE 00134 EXPLORER 4DR 00152 AVIATOR 00156 MONTEREY 00158 FREESTAR 00163 MARINER 00166 FREESTYLE OASIS MESSAGE : ALL 2005 VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH GASOLINE POWERED ENGINES WITH LESS THAN 5 CONTINUOUS MILES (8 KM) OF DRIVING BETWEEN STARTS, OR LESS THAN 50 STARTS, MAY EXHIBIT HIGHER THAN NORMAL ENGINE IDLE SPEEDS.

Brad Clayton Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 This is interesting reading because I have noticed this on the new '08 gas super dutys. Better have your foot good on the brake when you drop it in gear or it will go thru the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I don't know were I actually read this but it is a common thing. I believe it was if you drive them 10-20 miles it would "relearn" were the idle should be. The first one that did it to me I almost crashed to brand new vehicles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 This is an old topic. I also experienced this in a 2008 truck so I would say that the SSM above is applicable to all model years since it was released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
