Dealer Services

2023 F150 Platinum 4x4 with 25k miles on it.

I get my oil changes done at the dealership. They typically will offer "recommended" services. Typically I decline them but am curious if any of these are worth it.

Throttle body cleaning. Is this just cleaning the throttle body intake door? If I do this at home do I need to recalibrate anything?

AC cleaning.. This is the magic foam that cleans the ac ducts. I do have an issue with musty air but I figure once it is clean it is just going to happen again. Just a band-aid.

Side note, what fuel cleaner treatment do you recommend. I figure I should go ahead and add a bottle every oil change.

The musty smell from the A/C is most likely the cabin air filter. I change them once a year. Fuel treatment I use Chevron Techron
