Notes by brand
The 5.4 three-valve V8 in the F-150, Expedition and Navigator is well known for cam phaser trouble that causes a knock or tick at warm idle and codes such as P0012 and P0022. Low hot-idle oil pressure and worn chain guides are usually part of the same picture, so the typical repair covers phasers, chains, guides and tensioners together.
