[QUOTE="frankin, post: 2906854, member: 36460"] I know this has been discussed before, but I can't seem to get a solid answer on this issue. Below is a post I made and the answer given. This disturbs me because many of our cars have cylinder heads made prior to 01/05. He is saying that the only heads that don't have problems are replacment heads built after 01/05. I don't understand why there is not a recall. I am already upset at the fact that I could have heads on this car that could suck a valve or even worse at any time, and if my warranty is finished I am screwed. Please share your thoughts or knowledge on this subject. Originally Posted by FireRed04Vert Blue paint and build date seem to have nothing to do with the tick. We have found that even the earlier replacement heads will tick. So far, the only head that has proven a successful cure is the head released 01/05. It also has fully threaded spark plug holes. By the way, no one can difinitively tell you what that blue stripe means. My wife's Aviator has them on it. If new heads made 01/05 slove the problem then that means all heads before that have a problem. Is that what you are saying? And if so will Ford replace them with the most recent? [/QUOTE]
