The sensor has no seal, it may have become loose and leaked, The Picture Below shows I added live gage, the two black sensors are Oil temp and Oil pressure switch. None of the VM3.0 2014-19 have live Oil pressure sensor. The EVIC is L-O-M.
LMBO ,Vern You would be banned if you made statements like that at 1500diesel.xxx.
Don't give Me your crap about GOV regulations. We ALL have a certain measure of responsibility to our environment.
What can't you comprehend, I tried to keep My 3.0VM legal for over 3+ Years, My Data and...
Vern, You own ONE truck Thats It...Your sources are limited to 90%+ info second hand at Best. You claim that the New Emission resolves the 3.0 Problems will be short lived. Your Beloved Truck Is NOT OEM its used in commercial use that's equals what? Your example is misleading at best for the...
If you desire to remove all emission components, Make sure you have them all, and I would suggest to order parts that are necessary ASAP.
What DEF nuisance's are you experiencing, almost All DEF problems can be eliminate for year 2015 by lower concentrated DEF.
Its this simple DEF is 67/33%...
You can run 90/10% DEF Fluid Distilled water in 2015, The Likelihood of DEF system failure from tank to DEF injector is next to none at that ratio.
Its cost Nothing to run that concentrate.
If your going to upgrade to missing Parts remove it all. EGR, DEF System, SCR, DPF.
With GDE tuning the...
The ZF partnered with FCA 2011-13, and is Licensed to Produce ZF Transmissions, currently at Kokomo and Gray Court.
NO WAY.... would ZF allowed FCA to produce its Transmissions with Failure Rates equal to VM 3.0. Production would have been Stopped and corrections Made even if it took Years...
LMBO, Wards best engines is equal to getting a promotion form changing Tires to Brakes. (OEM)
Fait / Dumped a known problematic engine on N/A. I will just post some internal Fiat/VM communications in the Future.
What! Violating Federal Laws, Industry standards, false claims, looks to be...
Just to add , I did error in My judgement from 2015-18 I tried everything to Make My 3.0 last Without tuning, Even My wife stated I never seen you (Todd) baby sit a motor more than that 2015. I should have change My position earlier. You just cannot avoid repairs in DD use WITHOUT making parts...
Ronald, My 2015 was ordered and I welcome the 3.0VM and wanted it to be a big success, This would have open the Door to My Dsl business to Make $$$$, I absolutely refuse to lower My standards on Dsl powerplants for profit.
Also Ronald I don't make claims WITHOUT merit and will change My...
Maybe Ronald you should concern yourself more with the Facts.
This Engine is a miserable failure, Plague with problems No Owner should have to inherit.
Now if your a Nay Sayer your welcome to your Opinion.
Its a fact Owners from 2014-16 were 250+ times more likely to have engine Puke than any...
Its was the Joint Venture with GM that created the 630/3.0. One has to ask WHY GM, Detroit Penske believed that VM 3.0 was road worthy why Sell.
IMO Ocaam's razor applies here, "the simplest solution is most likely the right one"
Its a good Business move to dump the 630 ASAP, FPT already...
I see your point, With My WITECH , I monitored that thermocouple pass the EGR Vale and Exchanger with infrared gun, it was still 200-300F.
The bypass valve does NOT stop the Heat/Gases. I even cap the Plenum and made My own tube from EGR Valve to atmosphere. It still triggered rationale...
The EGR valve is downstream of coolant exchanger. Yes You stop the gases from entering the Intake plenum. The heat is still in the chamber / exchanger. IMO your adding heat/stress to the exchanger increasing your risk of failure, Coolant leak. Yes its close during Active / Stationary Regens, The...
How much Longer Will the current 3.0VM be available for Ram 1500 Pickup. VM looks to be gearing up for Industrail, Marine, Off-Road and Ag Productions. These current Engine being produce By VM look similar to FPT (Fiat Power Technologies line up) The 3.0VM V has already been dropped for Jeep...
I also partially block My EGR, again it did very little in stopping the copious amounts of Exhaust gases the 3.0VM ED produces, its simply the most soot producing small engine I have ever encountered.
If you want to block the Tube its 9/32 size hole, even 1/4 sized triggered rationale code...
Unplugging the bypass does little as suggested., It will trigger rationale code form Time to time happens more often in warm summer months. I ran the bypass unplugged for 14 months. Its a bypass it will NOT close entirely. Just leave it plug in and save yourself the hassle.
