I hope everyone is having a good week. I wanted to drop the final part of my ford F150 5L coyote engine review talking about the common issues and generally things that would concern me about this engine.
first and foremost I could not believe how many people were concerned about the oil consumption issues on these 5L engines so I took a deep dive into the issue and overall it seems like ford has resolved the issue.
the other common engine problems include head gasket leaks, mass air flow sensor issues, spark plug failures all of which are not too big of an issues.
the second big issues involved the cam phaser failure and it seems like this can be highly mitigated with good engine maintenance throughout the life the of the engine.
overall I still think the 5L engine from ford is a good engine choice and I would higher consider it if I was going to buy an F150.

    Had a 2013 F150 XL with the 5.0 and an 8ft bed. It was just a work truck but even after 450,000 miles of constant abuse and so much neglect (company truck) engine and trans still ran like butter. Spark plugs finally burned out around 280,000 and welded themselves to the coil packs and the water pump gasket failed at 320,000. That was it. Damn thing was solid. Eventually they retired my truck and sold it at auction. Still miss that damn thing 😂

    I have a 2017 f150 5 liter and the great 6 speed trans with 105,000 miles and so far have not had any kind of issues with it. I run Pennzoil Platinum oil and replace around every 7500 miles. I'm old school and told the salesman that wanted to sell me the Ecoboost and told him rather have the extra two pistons rather than the extra cost and high dollar repair or replacement on the two turbos and equipment down the road. I tow a thirty five hundred pound cargo trailer with it about 3000 miles to the west mountains every year and it pulls it like a champ. Dealer has been wanting me to trade in for a 2023 model but will not because Ford screwed the current 5 liter engine up when they went direct injection, auto stop start, cylinder deactivation and the ten speed transmission.

    I have the 2018 F150 5.0L. Before the service bulletin was burning 1 qt per 1100-1400 miles. After the service bulletin is 1 qt per 4000 miles. Since I change the oil by then, never have to add any between changes anymore. On the plus side, I love the power. Especially at high speeds. The 70-100mph passing power is amazing! And, the fuel economy for such a powerful full size truck is great too. My average, which includes both city and highway driving is 20 mpg. Pure highway is 22mpg!

    Hello. I also have a 2018 with the 5.0 and 10 speed and I do really like the truck. Mine too burns about the same oil as yours. When you mention the service bulletin, what exactly was done, and did the dealer handle the repair, or did you do it on your own? How many miles approximately did you do the service bulletin repair at?

  • @craigg4246

    The service bulletin is a couple things. Primarily a software update the prevents the throttle plate from closing entirely during deceleration. This lowers the amount of manifold vacuum produced. Which prevents sucking the oil into the cylinders. Additionally they change the dipstick with one remarked levels. Wish it didn’t consume any oil at all, but I can live with a quart/4000 miles. No other issues at all at 78,000.@@zachis4wheeling

We only put about 8,000 miles a year, some towing with a 3,000 lb teardrop trailer. No issues. We get around 15-16 mpg in city driving. Depending on the terrain, we get around 12 - 13 mpg towing. Driving up a lot of high mountain passes it drops to around 10 mpg.

The liners have been holding up rather well, but I have personally seen casting issues in the block in gen 3, and ring issues in gen 3. Gen 3.5 seems to be pretty decent so far.

    The plasma cylinder liners usually last longer than iron sleeves. Ford said in their testing that the cylinders still measured at new dimensions at 250,000 miles.

    That was my intention when I bought my 19 5.0. FWIW, the only reason I still have it is because I feel guilty passing it on to someone else. Oil consumption, suspected cam phasers (I have changed oil and done routine maintenance religiously), stalling coming to rolling stop, replaced rear end, TCM fault codes, you name it at 80k miles. Anecdotal evidence, but I'd stay as far away as possible if I were you. Dealership is less than helpful in advising, 2 independent shops have told me it's got some bad signs, could run for quite a while, could be a paperweight next week.

    When I was buying my first brand new truck in 2019, I was looking at. Chevy. Ford and the tundra. I passed on the Chevy because of the cylinder deactivation. I would’ve bought a 5.3 without question. I had an older one. It was great. I had an F150 all picked out. 5.0. 373 gear. Stx. After a little more research. I passed because of the oil consumption. I ended up with a 5.7 tundra. Got a great deal on it because it was right before covid. Truck has been near flawless. Had the fuel pump recall done that a gazillion Toyotas had. The trucks just built well. Nothing fancy but everything works well. I pull an 8000+ lb boat with it. Added some Firestone bags and LT tires and it’s solid. I’ll be keeping this one hopefully for a long time.

Afterwards, the trans shifted much better. I moved 1500 miles across the country with three trips (close to 6k mi) towing a very heavy utility trailer loaded a little beyond the truck weight rating. Oil was black so changed with Amsoil 5w 30. Not one problem, love this truck.

I never check the oil but I’m glad I did because the dip stick was dry! It took five (yes 5) quarts of oil to bring it back to the full mark. I love a spunky V8, but not sure I’ll go back with a 5.0 next time.

    I bought a used 2020 F-150 with the 5.0L Coyote engine with 40K miles. It was burning a quart of oil per 1,000 miles. The oil consumption TSB had not been done. I had the TSB performed at the Ford dealership. So far, it appears to have largely solved the oil consumption issue. The dealership expressly told me that if the truck continued to burn oil at 1 quart per 1,000 miles or more, they would look at actually replacing the engine under warranty--they noted that, out of performing the TSB on around 100+ 5.0L trucks, they had to replace one engine. For this dealership, the 5.0L is their biggest seller in the F-150.

    @@johnrutherford407 has the update been done per the tsb? If not, then have them perform it. That may fix it. If it’s been done, then have them officially initiate an oil consumption test. They’ll then change the oil, mark the dipstick at one qt low and at the full level, and record the mileage. They’ll then have you come in at regular intervals (likely 500 mile). And they’ll check the oil. If it drops below the 1 qt level before it reaches 3,000 miles, they’ll repair or replace it depending on what they find. In some cases it’s leaking past the valves. In some cases it’s leaking past the piston rings. So the repair could be cylinder heads, a short block, or a complete engine. At our shop, they’ve authorized a complete engine based on our findings. Of course it depends on whether it’s still under warranty or not. Factory Powertrain warranty is 5 years/60,000 miles. If you purchased the extended warranty, then it’s covered based on that. It’s a good idea to have oil change records available. But Ford hasn’t really been that strict unless they see evidence of neglect, which is unlikely if you’ve changed oil anywhere near regularly. At one time there was a lengthy backlog. Ford allowed the customer to keep driving the truck, and we added oil until an engine became available. But I think the replacement engines are now available. Hope this helps

    As someone who owns a Dodge, it seems as if the "cylinder deactivation" issues are more of an oiling issue at idle rather than a cylinder deactivation or parts quality issue. Dodge started to have issues with lifters in 2009, when VVT was added to the engine and can happen on all HEMIs with or without MDS. Cylinder 5 seems more common to fail rather than the rest, which is a non-MDS cylinder. Also, Dodge introduced cylinder deactivation in 2006 and the earlier 2006-2008 engines with MDS but without VVT do not have lifter issues like the 2009+. Also, Dodge lifter issues, due to it being an oiling issue at idle, are a later in life issue. Many engines make it to 150k+ without issues. My 2015 has 206k on it's original lifters. The main ways to avoid lifter failure on a Dodge is avoid idling and short cycling if you don't want to replace the oil pump for the hellcat part. It also seems as if lifter failure is worse on the earlier engines, with weaker oil pumps that pump lower pressures at idle. GM lifters seem to be a poor quality control issue, because I've heard of many GM lifters failing very early in the engine's life. Like as early as the first 10k miles on the engine. Though only time will tell how a vehicle will last and time will tell if Ford's cylinder deactivation will give the engine issues.

I was unhappy that Toyota eliminated the 5.7 (which was engineered from the GM 5.7 from what I understand), so I bought an F-150 Tremor for myself and eventually settled on the 5.0L. Although my favorite muscle car was a 1971 426ci Hemi Cuda, I have had very bad luck with Daimler-Chrystler products (I still have a CJ-7 that is not running more than it is running). I started as a Ford guy, became a GM guy, and then bought my first Toyota. I know it will upset some, but my 2002 Taco is still my go-to recovery vehicle with almost 200k miles. I bought the Tremor 5.0 with the thought that I might supercharge it. Do you have any insight on the Ford-approved and sold Whipple supercharger kit? It would seem to eliminate the cylinder deactivation issue, and my truck already doesn't have the stop-start thingy. Obviously, I would lose the almost 20mpg combined that I am getting (which is crazy to me), but if the pros outweigh the cons I might do it. Peace, Love!!

    Just had oil change today at ford dealer. Told them I put in 2 quarts in 4k miles . They pulled plugs and scoped cylinders and found 1 and 2 had scoring on walls . They didn't know why but said that's where my oil is going and if I want to fix it I'd need a new motor. Currently 80k miles on truck . 2018 f150 5.0 v8

    My dad has a 2020 5.0 F150, 34,000 miles and has been burning about 3 quarts between 5k oil changes. Ford has a new motor on order for him and have told him to just monitor his current motor until they can have it swapped. The new motor has been on back order for about 8 months now

    I have a 2020 with the 5.0. Just finished an oil consumption study with my dealership and they agreed to apply the TSB 19-2365 on the next oil change. Consumption is about a quart every 3000 miles. I'll let you know if the TSB fixes it or not.

    Bro, I have a 2020 5.0 also like you. Mine was burning 3.3 quarters of oil each 5k miles. Ford did the reprogram and changed the oil stick but that did nothing. I was fighting with them and finally they agreed to change my engine. After 7 months of my truck being at the dealership, finally I got my truck back with the new engine. Good luck with yours.

    Mine doesn't seem that thirsty for oil, but it's a nuisance to be sure. They did the reprogram thing (which fixed the rough downshifts) and the dipstick thing and oil consumption is down but not good in my opinion. They told me that "spec" was a quart per 2000 miles, mine is about a quart per 3000 after they applied the "fix". My 2018 Edge burns no oil between changes, nor does the 2022 Maverick in my fleet. I did get the 150k warranty so if it blows up they can put a new engine in it. Was it at the dealer the entire 7 months? @@blackbox3493

    I've got a 2013 with the Gen 1 Coyote with 141k miles. Great engine for me. I've had some minor things to replace like the water pump (90k miles is common issue) and oil pan gasket. Neither was difficult since there is plenty of room to work under the hood. 5k oil changes. Overall I love the truck, it has held up really well, and the motor has been great. My question for Alex would be: If I ever have to replace the motor, could I replace it with the Gen 2 Coyote? My father-in-law had a 2015 with the Gen 2 coyote and the bigger valves seemed to really wake the engine up.

    second gen engines seem to be really solid units! I'm honestly not too sure on if you could simply drop the second gen engine in without issue. I would think at least you would need to change your powertrain computer and harness.
