I order my oil filters from IDPARTS.COM, they offer a UFI brand filter that they say is the exact same filter you would get from mopar, but 1/3 the price.

Thank you for your service! Regarding the tune, definitely will help, I went with a stage 1 from SFT, shuts the EGR down & allows the use of distilled water in the DEF tank, I still run some DEF with the water, all in all I'm very satisfied with the tune, if you happen to go with SFT, get the...

Stick with the mopar fuel filter, I've seen stories and pictures of non-mopar fuel filters swelling up. Also you mentioned Shell Rotella 5w40,but you didn't mention which Rotella, T-6 I hope.

I've heard that improper gear ratio can mess with the cruise control, the gear ratio may be in the VIN, but I'm not sure.

I don't have an answer, but would suggest putting your question in the ecodiesel performance forum.

Welcome!

Do your research, there's a few options for tuning and tunes will definitely help solve your issues. I'm sure you've noticed the delay at idle of almost 3 seconds, tunes will help. you basucally have less than 6 choices, one tune is EPA compliant, the others can turn of EGR which is one of the...

Why not fab up a heat shield, or wrap the DEF parts with fiberglass heat wrap, or possibly a high heat header spark plug wire cover if it would fit over the connector plug. The shield looks like it would be an easy job.

Welcome! I also have a 17 in DelMonico Red, love the truck, had just over 14000 miles when I bought it on the last day 2019, just turned 38000. Enjoy the truck.

Normal REGENS may clean it out, I really don't know if there's an acceptaple/approved method for cleaning other than selling you a new one.

Mine as well, IMO if you continue running a stage 2 tune on a stock exhaust it will be just a matter of time before te DPF will plug, hopefully someone with more info will chime in.

You can't run a stage 2 on stock exhaust, you need to lose the DPF and delete the EGR, SCR and other sensors.

Thanks TC, I'm still learning % figuring out this engine, my age doesn't help either. I had forgotten about the earlier trucks not having a valid sensor.

It's probably gonna go into "safe"(LIMP) mode before long@! I'd be tempted to drain it, siphon it or whatever ya gotta dotry to find a place where you can get it to drain from, & then refill with fresh, OR find a tune that will let you shut off the EGR & RUN DISTILLED WATER.

I'm kinda thinkin that if that's what you think, you should either take it to a reputable shop that has a good system like AUTO ENGINUITY, or find someone that has ALFAOBD and get it checked or spend a hundres bucks & buy ALFA & a OBD dongle for whatever device you may have, it's available for...

Welcome to the forum, as for what to do first?? Tune it if you can!

I think the the VM 3.0 comes with the heater installed, BUT you have to add your own cord if you didn't get the cold weather package or whatever it's called. I've seen postings about others buying a cord elsewhere and saving a fair amount of money.

Do you have a block heater cord? There should be a block heater, but you may need to get a cord for it. I think I would plug it in going to that much colder climate. As far as oil changes I'm going 6000-7000 miles, and MOPAR fuel filter every other oil change. Tune it with a tune that shuts off...

Does anyone know if there is a standard replacement mirror glass available. I've got stock powerfold heated mirrors and have ALWAYS hated the convex mirrors, I want a true depiction of traffic.

You may need to work them back and forth with penetrating oil to work them loose, I like PB-BLASTER for a penetrant, KROIL is also good, and diesel fuel may work too. Make sure you use a good antisieze on the new plugs. I also agree with Tremper126, if you have a bad glow plug you'll know it...
