Apologies for piggybacking on your post, but I have a question related to this. How difficult is it to put a newer gen Eco-D engine in a 2015? Mine is a boat anchor at 217k and I’m considering my options.

212k, locked up engine. Everything works on the truck except the engine. Transmission has 95k on it. Tuned and deleted by GDE. If interested, make a reasonable offer. Thanks.

What do you want for the whole truck? What do you want for the engine?

I’ve been looking at refurbished and warrantied, then wrecked trucks. I’ll have to buy a get around truck til then.

Yep, loud knock. Towed it home, tried to tinker, locked up the rest of the way. Gotta find another powerplant or sell the whole thing. 😒

Looks like I gotta start trying to find another engine or go to big gas or Cummins. Even meticulous upkeep couldn’t keep her going. Should have stuck with what is a proven platform.

Yep. That’s what the question was about, what kits have people bought that wasn’t garbage. Thanks though.

Hey, I can’t see the Facebook link, but is that still for sale and what year is it?

I am casually shopping around for a CarPlay upgrade on my 8.4 inch head unit on a 2015 Ram Big Horn. Have any of you done this yet? What device did you buy?

I don’t know if you can see my previous comments on this, so I will type it again. You have a sludge issue. Use BG engine flush (follow the directions). Drop the oil pan. Clean your oil pickup and the pan thoroughly. Then, reinstall the pan and add new oil and a new filter. I personally did 2...

Sounds like you got a 1st person view of insurance corruption.

217xxx miles on my 2015 deleted 3.0 and it runs better than it did when I bought it new. I always take an opportunity to make sure people know there are millions of good trucks with no problems.

Replace the fuel filter, clean your MAF, make sure your turbo boot is securely fastened.

Use a mirror and a good flashlight to get a good look at the rubber boot on your turbo inlet. I’ve had about 10 DTC’s pop up one morning from a loose hose clamp. Pushed it back in place and tightened it up, all issues went away instantly.
