    My opinion is that aftermarket suspension parts are a reasonable reason to deny warranty on that part.

    Of course, it's not my opinion that matters. Are dealers penny-pinching shitbags, or are they generous and easily fooled? Hard to fact-check that idea.
    Dealer _wants_ the work. It's guaranteed pay. It's Ford Canada you need to fool.

    And Ford Canada will look at any reason not to pay that out.

    I have p051b code, pcv Crankcase Pressure Sensor 'A' Circuit Range/Performance

    Seems simple, replace hose, valve, sensor. I can’t find the sensor on rockauto for a 2015 Lincoln Navigator. It’s not in the tube does anyone know or have tips??

    On an F150 it’s because someone forgot to tighten the bolts after an oil change or service. I see those fucking carpet ass “skidplates” hanging low and dragging on the ground on them all the time.

    The carpet thing is basically just to smooth airflow and absorb some sound. Don't call that a skidplate.
    You can buy the raptor skidplate that replaces that carpet thing. Or aftermarket has options. I haven't used any of those.

    I noticed my coworkers carpet was also dragging on his Powerboost. Dealer said that any moisture (aka, heavy snow road conditions) makes it wet and it just sags and tears a corner under its own weight. Also said to just throw it away.

    They get damaged easily, and if they do, toss it.

    I replaced the fabric one with an OEM Raptor skid plate. Was just over $200 but feel much better with it on there and easy to install. Uses the existing bolts for the fabric cover mounts in the back and two new nuts/bolts for the front.

    Skid Plate: HL3Z-7222-E

    The OEM cloth diaper is over $100, so this seems like a good choice.

    did you have the trailer attached? even empty trailers drag more air than you think, and air resistance is a much bigger factor than weight for highway fuel economy.

    Always get multiple quotes for parts. Can be up to 2x depending where you call. Last time I was calling around universal was the worst.
