Anyone else experiencing a pop noise from their speakers? Powerboost?

[HulkBoost]

So I have a 2021 Powerboost I've 34" tires with 20" fuels and ofcourse I have to level it! I love the truck but im averging like 15.5 mpg?! Also it's been a bit of a headache fordpass and android auto don't work and every time I open the door I can hear a pop coming from the speakers and same once you start up the truck!! I've already taken it to my service department and they did the Field action service 21b33 but it did nothing still can't use fordpass and the popping is still there... anyone else have this issue? And curious on what everyone is getting on their mpgs with similar setup?

I have not noticed any popping.

You also have heavier tires and rims which will dock you a couple MPG.
If you've got a lead foot, and are engaging the turbos, you're not going to come close to the 24mpg either.

I'm averaging 20'ish on my loaded Platinum PB with a mix of city / highway that has less than 1000 miles on it.

Try turning on the EV coach in My View to see how your driving style affects the MPG.

it pops as soon as you open the door, and i figured i was going to lose out on mpg due to the wheels and tires set up so i wanted to see what everyone is getting! I have the eco behavior on the 12' screen and ill try the coach to see if i can get the mpg up im all in town driving

No popping at all.

My PowerBoost is completely stock and I generally get 21-22 MPG, with a light foot. I live in hilly CA, and our gas has ethanol. With your set-up, 15-16 MPG is about what I'd expect. You may be able to get another 1-2 MPG with gentle driving.

I have a single loud popping noise that sounds when you first open the door and the truck is remote started. I also have a ticking noise from the right front tweeter that happens intermittently. The only way I can get the ticking noises (sounds like the tuning of a home stereo) is by pulling the negative terminal off the battery. Been to the dealership half dozen times with no solution yet. Any suggestions would be great! All my fuses are seated properly.

Which system do you have/ Base, B&O or Unleashed. I’m assuming B&O on a 501 Mid- Lariat. Might have the dealer check or better yet replace your Amp. As i understand it all of your warning chimes etc go through the sound system. So the pop may be a fault in the amp when you open the door and it powers up. Just a suggestion to explore.

I have the B&O Unleashed system. I'll mention the amp to the dealership. Any other thoughts? Thanks!

Hi there, HulkBoost. I can look into this popping issue regarding your F-150 on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info?

 

[Chaser888]

@Ford Motor Company just sent you my VIN number as well. It would be great if you could help!

Hi. Wondering if there was ever a resolution to this issue? I'm experiencing something similar on my 2022 F-150 Powerboost. When I open either front door, I hear 3 pops in a row. Seems to occur after the truck sits not running for about half an hour or longer. I was in the garage yesterday and could hear the pops without opening the doors now too.

@Ford Motor Company do you know if there was resolution to this?
