It's supposed to shift fast in sport mode. That translates into it feeling hard. It goes through the gears fast. If it's not doing that then something is wrong.

I had the hard shifting transmission issue on purchase of my 2017 with 48k miles. I got the Cobb tuner and put on their transmission tune. 20k later it is still shifting smooth as butter.

Hey with the Cobb tuner you purchased, which transmission tune did you find works best? I thought Cobb had a few different transmission tunes to choose from. Thanks!

@@michaelschuerman2847 I am using simulated stock right now. It is like what you would expect Ford to do on their OEM TMC program. OEM+ was only marginally different and as I am putting in some longer trips right now I just went back to the sim stock. I have not tried sport yet. Tons of threads out there with more information than I have too. Cobb has been great and the Accessport is easy to use too.

I had hard shifting on my 2019. Took it into ford (warranty) and they replaced the torque converter. Reset the transmission and tbh it still shifts hard. Just don’t want to leave my truck at the dealer for weeks again. Maybe I’ll take it to a better dealer.

My 2017 has had every single one of these issues. I reset the shift tables using forescan worked great, have not addressed the sunroof or oil pan yet

I need to try do the resetting of the shift tables!

What do u think about the Cobb access port? Do u think it’s safe to do a tune with it ?

Do you know can you put an ESP warranty on a 2017 with 90K miles? Your videos are really good!

Thanks bro appreciate it! You sure can, you’ll just have to get a used vehicle inspection for about $100-150 and then you can purchase one!

Had my truck for 3 weeks and the phaser rattle started .... Glad I have a warranty.

Hey Jim ! Should I spend 45k on a 2018 raptor with around 50k miles, or is it ok to buy one used with around 80k miles for just under 40k? That’s my current dilemma, debating if paying more for fewer miles is worth it. Not financial advice, but what does your gut tell you?

@f1fiftyjimmy

I was in that same dilemma before I bought mine. I’d say really depends on how long you think you’ll keep it. There’s no harm with an 80k mile raptor, just get that ford esp on it. I knew I would keep it for some years and drive it so I was trying to buy one at the 50-75k mile range. Mine had 59k when I bought it.

would you guys buy a raptor again knowing about all these issues?

You betcha, just try to look for one that's been taking care of if possible and get a Ford ESP warranty. I know someone with two gen 2 raptors.

Definitely, my 2017 has been flawless, zero issues and always fun to drive.

Ford warranty is definitely key! Crazy what dealers will sell used and not even knowing everything that's been done to it. Buying an offroad purpose truck is definitely more tricky in some ways.

I had a 19’ all the problems…The conclusion I came to, FORD makes garbage products!!!
