    Yes, but the turbo brake is weak, Its more effective if it was Tuned for use on warm up.

    Bought a 2015 Eco Laramie loaded did good for 49000 Mi then caught on fire and burnt up the engine no paint and body damage FCA said fires happen.

    The QC at Standard at VM Cento is low, 2018-19s still Puking.Until Fiat Upgrades Cento with modern Tooling and equipment , the 2020 wil be equal to the same QC 2014-19 problems, the 2020 Motor is more complex, Dual EGR piping is a rats nest in the engine compartment, and will add to already...

    How many miles on your Ecodiesel ??

    I've lost count on the times I mentioned the 3.0VM does OK in HWY use. Also claiming that tuned VM 3.0 , that the engine should get credit is unacceptable, If it was Not tune what is the life expectancy? VM should not get credit for what other did to make their short comings & corrections, I...

    Bought a 2015 Eco Laramie loaded did good for 49000 Mi then caught on fire and burnt up the engine no paint and body damage FCA said fires happen.

    You are inviting the same problems...I take it 47 Years in mostly gas repairs? I opted to Go 5.7 Limited. The Problem is NOT FCA its VM/Fiat. Fiat/VM certainly looking for its next foolish person willing to take the inherited risk VM3.0 has, What are going to do at Court? The Insurer is the...

    Forced regens good for truck?

    Force Regen is equal to Active Regen, This process is done when conditions merit during Driving Stationary de-soot , is just that, its more aggressive, It may take 2-3 Times to clean soot, Ash will accumulate over time. I have been Stationary de-sooting vehicles for 12 years. IMO 2-3 Times...

    considering buying an ED

    I don't know the details ,other than they are required to monitor. It does not change the fact your warranty have been Violated, IMO its worth the risk on the VM3.0.

    Engine

    I would pull Oil sample immediately, if Aluminium is in triple digits trade in ASAP. or prepare for lengthy wait along with the hassle engine replacement creates. Is it still under warranty?

    Problem with Ecodiesel

    In Europe it does well, in 3000Lbs Cars, I do tip My hat to Vern he's pulling Max most of the time, My guess he's talented Road Worthy and very skill in the seat.

    Problem with Ecodiesel

    Brady its OK, the VM 3.0 is 13 Years into production, Just 5 years in the USA. No, the High miler's (Many) Have emission in tact, and Verns is not OEM either. Yes the Classes all have the same On Road standards of CAA 2007.5 to current.

    Problem with Ecodiesel

    Just more evidence even the software designer has little faith in the VM.3.0. The Truck trans made it to 621K mile, both of VernDsl engines are less then 350K Miles. There are 1000s of 5.9,6.7 Cummins, and 1000s of Duramax and Many Fords with 600K+ miles, With functional OD. Yes the...
