Wow, you really came out smelling like a rose compare to some of the horror stories.

I would agree if you bought it new, but buying used the damage is already done.

Just read the threads regarding extremely high engine failure rate. If you had a tune that shut off the egr valve, you may get more life out of the engine. My advice is do your own research and determine based on that what level of risk you are willing to accept. Some eco owners are no longer...

The cam gear has proven to be a non-issue. You must have watched Shawn’s youtube video. You do have plenty to worry about with this power plant, but the cam gear issue isn’t something you should lose sleep over.

Hi TC, I don’t regret my 2019 hemi purchase either. Just paid $1.55 for gas when I filled up in Pipestone. :) TC, what is your opinion on the Ford and GM half ton power plants? Did they build a reliable motor?

I thought the deadline to file a claim with FCA was 8/1/19? Anyone who hasn’t filed their intent and documents with FCA yet is F’d, in my opinion.

they also have to put a sticker on your ecm. when they open your hood it needs to at least look like it is supposed to look.

That’s quite an endorsement for Ram. How many Ecos do you think they’d sell if they launched a marketing campaign with testimonials like yours?

Archoil AR9100 friction modifier. I used it in every oil change just for the bearing issue. A friction modifier is your only weapon against the 3.0 lubrication issues. It certainly isn’t going to fix a poor design, but it will help prolonging the engine long enough to be the next owners...

So we can assume you bought it new and know the entire maintenance history since birth?

So you’ve got nearly 600k on your original tranny?

What’s wrong with using the factory muffler?

I would make sure they changed the oil. Coolant in the crankcase will fry your bearings very quickly.

Use Archoil AR9100 friction modifier at every oil change.

He was just as critical and factual of the ED through his entire ownership.

Who knows? I honestly wouldn’t even have traded if not for the abhorrent reliability of the Ecodiesel. Always wondered when mine was going to fail so I just decided to get a divorce and start a new love affair.

My 2016 loaded larmie had a window sticker of 54000 (just to give you an idea how it was equipped), i tried to trade at several dealers that would only give me 28k in trade. I ended up doing a trade at a dealer who gave me 30k for it. It had 31000 miles on it and it was immaculate.

Lol

The buy back would be at current market value, would it not? May as well just go trade it off now and rid yourself of this stress.

Only makes sense to feed the EGR with post DPF gasses.
