Anyone have problems with a ecoboost skipping or shuttering when going up hills or in cruise control? Maybe just the way it is?

At what speeds and gear does it seem to be doing it?

I notice when I punch it to pass someone it will drop down to third and the rpms go way up and it didn't seem to do anything but sound super painful. I don't know what your weather is like but here I was getting moisture in the intercooler. Anytime the engine has to work the moisture is sucked through and it surges. There's a new mod to fix it at the dealership. That was my problem.

I agree, that might be your problem. I've heard of moisture in the inter cooler causing the same problems you are experiencing. But like masonic said, there's a fix for it now. Just go take it into your local dealer. Originally Posted by masonic

Yeah I just had a new inter cooler put in because of the moister issue. It's been raining all week and been running great after that.

Check your spark plug gap, mine were at. 044-.047 re-gap down to .033 and shudder went away. Plus I got the TSB update for the after cooler.
