2017 Ford F-550 Super Duty Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2017 Ford F-550 Super Duty documents a chassis cab sold in XL, XLT and Lariat trim, with the crew cab, conventional cab and extended cab bodies all in scope. Two engines are listed, the turbocharged 6.7L OHV V8 diesel of 406 cubic inches and the naturally aspirated 6.8L SOHC V10 gasoline engine of 415 cubic inches. The recall record for this year touches the driveline, doors, seats, fuel system and body, so the procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics for those systems on both engines are the heart of the book.

Known issues on the 2017 F-550 Super Duty. Door latches head the eight recalls on this year's federal record: a frozen latch or a kinked cable can let a door open while the truck is moving. The rest include a driveline that can vibrate and fracture the driveline or transmission and a fuel conditioning module shield on the diesel that can come loose, open the drain valve and cause a fuel leak. Owners have logged two complaints with NHTSA, one on the steering and one on the suspension. The manual's driveline and door latch procedures, torque values, fuel system specifications for the 6.7L diesel, and steering and suspension procedures cover those items.
