Four problems related to power train have been reported for the 2006 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
F250sd diesel about 65 mi. S. Of eli,nv. The ck engine symbol came on,so I pulled over and looked under the hood. There was oil all over the top of the engine,[maybe 1 gal. ]. Oil was coming out of plastic coolant overflow box. No oil showed on check stick. I got 2 gal of oil from someone passing by and limped into eli nv. The pickup seemed to run ok and no other warnings showed. [I watched temps closely]. Turned out the oil cooler internal [under the intake manifold] sprung a leak and forced oil into the coolant system. My truck was barely over the 5 yr. Warranty so no help there from Ford. I always wanted a Ford diesel but not anymore. Cost $2200. For repairs, and lost 3 weeks with the truck. Had to hire a u-haul to get home to boise and come back for my pickup. My question is why no help from Ford? I still have the bad cooler.
