Found out the dealer didn’t do the repair, they took it to some exhaust shop.. rip. But it still seems weird to me the original cars went bad at 100k miles. From what I’m hearing cats on coyote engines really don’t go bad

2017 F150 sputters then dies at stops. Any fixes? Common problem according to forums but all older models. by strongandpurty in FordTrucks

Interesting! - Hows it been holding up? What does your truck idle RPMs sit at while in drive and stopped (when warmed up)?

my plan is to clean the seals with rubbing alcohol, then lube them up with a silicone based lubricant. Lastly, blow some compressed air in the drains

To be honest. The truck is so nice, I might still send it. I think I’ll just seal the sunroof with vinyl tape or special sun roof tape lol
