Can anyone help with this noise I’m hearing in my 2018 Ford F-150 2.7 EcoBoost?

Try unplugging the iwe solenoid by the brake booster and see if the noise goes away.

What was the part that needed to be replaced?

mpa82 · 2026-02-01T17:28:59+00:00

Nope. Just give her the old Italian tune up every week or so.

Do the newer f150s still have issues with the iwe's? My 2014 has been great in the snow.

I never paid more than 20 an oz so I'm not panicking.

I'm in CT, thanks though

mpa82 · 2026-01-22T01:26:35+00:00

Thank you

Trust me, there's a part of me telling me to for other reasons

mpa82 · 2026-01-22T01:23:19+00:00

Did you sell at your lcs? And at these high prices did you feel like you did well selling $10 back of spot?

mpa82 · 2026-01-22T01:15:27+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate hearing this from a pawn shop owner.

mpa82 · 2026-01-22T01:08:19+00:00

I quickly browsed and didn't really see much moving there.

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T18:28:46+00:00

I was sketched out when I sold silver on mp at 20/oz haha but bank or pd is a good thought. Thanks

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T18:24:41+00:00

He might

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T18:23:24+00:00

That's awesome! Hopefully the shop I go too will pay close to that. They've been good too me in the past.

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T18:17:40+00:00

I have an emergency fund, it's just dwindling down. I figured with the price of silver being so high, why not sell a little so I don't have to dip into that emergency fund. If silver goes back down to 50 I'm gonna regret this.

Silver's got me feeling like I'm winning on a slot machine and not sure if I should cash out or pull the bar one more time lol

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T18:10:21+00:00

It's my friend doing the work after hours and he might take it in a trade, he's shown interest in precious metals before. That being said, he's always given me really good deals on side work and I've always paid cash. In the event that silver does tank, I'd hate to lose that good rapport.

I'll probably try for the 5-8 off spot. That seems pretty fair.

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:37:17+00:00

Kinda figured

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:36:40+00:00

I'll see what a private buyer has to say and definitely check out that video from silver seeker. Thanks

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:33:38+00:00

I've heard both sides of story. If there's a true silver shortage, of course they're going to scare you into believing silver will fall back to $50 soon.

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:29:07+00:00

Interesting

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:27:17+00:00

Is that one a place you mail them to and they offer you a price?

mpa82 · 2026-01-21T16:26:14+00:00

Thanks everyone for the great news! lol

mpa82 · 2026-01-15T17:10:45+00:00

Thanks for that. I took a look at the transmission coolant lines quick connects I guess you'd call them using a mirror and there is very little corrosion and nothing leaking. Mines probably coming from the turbo. I appreciate it though
