    Truck at dealer for over 70 days

    My 2015 experience what I call Lay down mode, it did this at HWY speeds and the EGT's would skyrocket, I have posted video's of this mode, it was just prior to AEM and after. That being said I only had it for 1 month after AEM, I have checked service records on the truck its been back at the...

    Want to be new owner of ecodiesel

    My sources at Fiat Chrysler America are no supporters of the VM 3.0, it was Fiat that demanded they capitulate, I have 1200 pages of inter communications to prove that. Roland why is Fiat infatuated with the 3.0, Heck they have at their disposal power plants that are robust and worthy at FPT...

    Want to be new owner of ecodiesel

    Roland I agree their out there, but the OP is thinking of buying used, Do you not agree its best to buy the Eco 3.0 with the worst case scenario in mind? So You have the Cash to repair if needed, the seller just going to tell the buyer back clouds never happen. This is the same statement I...

    Want to be new owner of ecodiesel

    Online not even close to the problems related to the quagmire the 3.0 has created.... Now Brady I agree it needs missing parts, and a big part missing is its illegal. If you consider $4 Billion plus in loses on only 110K vehicles means your blind. Lets see Ford retooled and upgraded its entire...

    Want to be new owner of ecodiesel

    NO.....In long term ownership its risky. That being said they do well in HWY use. Its not the engine I recommended to be your 1st DSL, its made overseas and its likely to be out of production soon. Need more details on its use City/HWY. Has the truck been upgraded to less parts ?

    Ok, so I have owned my 2015 Ram for 2 days and ECT light comes on

    Get Alfa-OBD for code clearing, SFK seem liked By many, GDE does offer CAA tunes, Dave in the end you will be spending about $1-3K in repairs, I am also Banned from that same forum, Its what I consider an Honor.

  14. TC Diesel

    How many miles do you have on your eco diesel?

    Unless it has maintenance Records its risky, at that mileage its going to need some repairs, in addition to the possibility of major failure. Now that being said $17K No, Your looking at 2-3K in maintenance and the possibility of $8k in motor replacement. Now make sure you have the funds for...

    FCA insider document reveals current engine failure rate.

    Bill and Kristi, The VM3.0 is your problem, I dumped that VM 3.0 and Purchased Ram Limited 2019 with 5.7, the Mileage is great the ride and comfort is 2nd to None... A good part of Why the 3.0VM continues to have major failure, Many owners are just blind to the facts that it fails prematurely...

    Newbie

    Why would you install the kit. You cannot (Should not) extend the Service intervals, and that 1st time that any dealership see that bypass your engine warranty will be terminated. Re-designed? Weaknesses were NOT removed in the 2020. Is this your 1st DSL.

    I’m new...tell me about your 2020 EcoDiesel

    The 2020 just is not selling, and the 2020 is still manufactured in Cento... MX, verified the same QC in 2020... Very few pervious 3.0 owners are willing to Trade to 2020. On Edit Most dealers stock is 100 Gas to 1 DSL 1500 2020. 7 6.7 Cummins to 1 6.4 3500, 5 6.7 Cummins to 5 6.4 2500.

    GDE, WOW you got that right....why in the heck is Fiat still prostituting's itself with VM 3.0 is beyond hideous. They could have retooled VM R&D another power plant for what 500 million. Fait has the resources to correct this and regain the 1/2 Ton market ...I only have one word for it Fiats...
