Description of the problem	2004 f150 5. 4 triton sounds like a diesel engine took to dealer for diagnosis at aprox. 30,000 miles. Dealer stated that this is normal. Engine failed at 98,000 miles due to valve timing issues, related to cam phasers. Thus cam shaft quit rotating allowing pistons to collide with vales causing engine failure. Dealer now wants 7624. 00 to replace engine. The ford dealership states that they have not seen this type of engine failure.
