I checked that article you linked and all my plugs had that “corona stain” mentioned in the article on them.

That is correct, I have never gotten a misfire code on any cylinder other than 3, and only one time. I see misses on my scan tool and feel them while driving. I’ve only logged 3 or 4 misses on 1 and 5 collectively but those cylinders never threw a code. My p0420 code has disappeared and so has...

I had a P0303 one time when the misfire got really bad and a p0420 from time to time.

I also want to add that after I started to feel the first misfires I got a p0420 cat code. I assumed this was due to a misfiring engine and I had damaged my cat. I had a thought on my way home today and wanted to share. Today I had zero issues with the truck to or from work “about 15min”. I also...

About a month ago my truck started acting like the torque converter was locking up and unlocking. Clunking and shuddering. I ended up serving the trans and a day later I get a misfire code. My fault on the poor diagnosis but not my trans has nice new fluid now so oh well. The miss got so bad it...

Hi all, I’ve got a 2005 v6 250k beast that’s starting to give me some anxiety. I just went to start her tonight and upon firing up it kind of stumbled, rattled, and then caught itself. It’s done this once before. Another clue is that it’s only done this when it has been sitting for a few days...

I’ve got a preliminary CAD file for it, I still need to do a fitment test. Once I get it worked out I’ll post the files.

Hi all, I recently acquired a rather nice 3D printer and got to thinking about parts for our t4rs. There are a handful of STL files out there for cup holders and gadgets, but nothing really useful. Out of curiosity what is something that you would find helpful? I have a 4th gen and my first...

Update So today I got around to checking out the connectors on the transmission harness. Like some of you said and stated in that helpful video that may have been my issue. I took it apart, cleaned it with connection cleaner and let it dry before reassembling. In the first minute of driving I...

I’ll take a look this weekend and report back

It felt like the transmission wasn’t going into gear properly, I know very technical of me. Either engaging / disengaging the 4th gear clutch pack or the torque converter locking up and unlocking. It did 3 “thumps”. Then caught itself. I drove home the 300+ miles with no issues. However I did...

No codes yet. I have the A750F trans, if that is helpful at all. I have the sealed unit so no dipstick sadly. I’m planning on dropping the pan when I get home. Doing a filter and fluid fill.

Hi all, looking for some insight on my transmission problem. About 2 months ago I was driving 35-40 mph, went to accelerate and my trans mad a hard thump, then a few minutes later did the same. It felt like it missed the shift. I had the issue one other time a few days later then nothing. The...

If this post is in the wrong thread I apologize! Hi guys, I made a post similar to this on FB and the interaction was frustrating, to say the least. I am NOT looking to sell my truck atm but I would like to set a baseline for value from the community just for my own curiosity. the truck has...
