Do any of you guys know of a Arlington Ford dealership that has a good tech that does warranty work? I took in my truck to the local Ford dealer where I bought it when my head gasket blew. I got it back and still wasn't right took it back and they said my supercharger was Focked and put a new one on. I got it back from em and even from a dead stop just normal acceleration there is a whine noise coming out from under the hood. Took it back to them they gave me another rental kept the truck for a day and called me back and told me that the sound is normal that my original supercharger must have not been working right ever since I got it and this was what it was suppose to sound like.:rolleyes: I think they just don't know what the fock they are doing and just don't want to deal with it anymore. So I want a second look at it down south a bit. Or if any of you guys are going to be around Cooper and Harris in arlington Wednesday-Saturday that could look at it and tell me let me know thanks for reading this huge wall of text.:evil

I know that lol :D. But the way my old supercharger was it only whined when you got on it not just taking off. Maybe my old one was just focked and i'm just imaging shit.

Yes, yes, there is a whine.....a VERY addicting whine. One that causes even worse gas mileage when you wanna REALLY hear it. :nono:

I have usually used Sonny (the tech) at Don Davis. He is a Gen 1 Lightning owner and usually treated me right. Last time I was in though he screwed me around so I haven't been back. Not a perfect recommendation, but better than nothing.

Ok I just went for a ride in my truck with my cell phone. Took a video here it is in the first video its just bearly accelerating at all. In the second I got on it a bit I know its suppose to whine like that:). But I'm not sure about the other. Also as you can see from the video i'm not building any boost while driving but still whineing. I just don't understand it :crying: Also sorry for quality... But if you listen real close you will hear what i'm talking about.

My truck sounds like the second video that's normal when you step on it.

Maybe they knocked the grommet out of the firewall in front of the gas pedal. That would let more noise in the cab.

Next time you head south on the weekend stop by my house, and take a ride in mine. The wife was driving in front on me once when I stomped on it, she said it sounded like a siren!
