  1. TC Diesel

    Hello to all of you with Ram Eco-diesel's. I purchased my new Dodge Ram Eco-diesel in 2016. I never had a diesel prior.

    Yes its covered both ways, By the emission warranty and the Service contract in the settlement...Don't let the dealer screw You FCA corrected this and its included in the 8/80..The Dealer is confusing this with Gas Warranty. FCA corrected the wording on 12-16-16 FCA Manager Emission Cert/Com

    Losing fuel economy

    You are welcome to do as you like, But remember this the AEM/Settlement is a service contract (NOT extended Warranty) You would be violating that contract. FCA is ordered to monitor the AEM (If) you bring that vehicle in for repairs at most dealerships they (Service Dept) will be required to...

    Losing fuel economy

    Yep, and that's the New AEM FCA wants us 2014-16 Owners to buy into... wait until you check your Plenum and Intake at 30K miles:mad: On the other side 80MPH is going to NET 20-22, that City Mileage is not bad either, its only .075-1.25 MPG less than My 2015.

    2015 Eco engine blown 45k Miles

    Brad.. Eco-Gate That's good and some's it up well... FCA makes some good products ,But being a man of justice I just cannot overlook FCA behavior in the Eco-gate rigmarole.

    Losing fuel economy

    If the DEF is not working properly on any Bluetec engine it will impede operation of the vehicle , each manufacture decided the process. As much as anyone would like to change the laws that govern mileage no tune will increase the MPG more than 1-3% , I can get better mileage by up grading My...

    Transmission Fluid and filter change

    Yes the remaining Fluid must go, If it was as bad as you described, MAXLife is cert for the 8HP70. Just do early drops until the fluid looks good, If you drop it today (Drain Only) it will look dirty. just some 3-5K drains 2 or 3 times will clear it up. Just measure how much you drain and replace.

    New owner

    If? they decide to Investigate. I composed this a few years back . Maybe I can clear this UP, GM All makers Must meet the certification REQUIRED by Federal Law. The instant YOU delete ON/OFF road use (The only exception to this law is Race or off road competition) GM or your Dealer cannot...

    The scan tool manufacturer must be a licensee of FCA’s scan tool data. The scan tool must be capable of connecting to the tool's manufacturer server to be able to request and receive the unlock key from FCA. A live internet connection must be maintained to the tool as it is connected to the...

    Transmission Fluid and filter change

    Sailorjoe, the fluid as you describe is laden with clutch dust/fur and has lost its friction additives...Drop the fluid ASAP continue to drive XXXX miles and continue fluid change outs until it pretty color. Use Valvoline MAX life fluid. 50K may be to late

    New owner

    CS, 2018 has SGM, I hate the EGR setup on the 3.0VM and its choke this engine to its death. Regardless of what GDE advertises they cannot avoid detection in 2018+ FCA vehicles. You can bypass the module but its integrated into the Vehicle so any tempering will be detected. Plus rumor has it...

    DEF

    Also The DEF gauge is somewhat funny in Rams, but just keep a memory of when and How far you drive and guessing works pretty good the ED uses about 1GP 400 miles normal use , pulling it can drop down to 1GP 150-200 miles.... I reset My DEF gauge with WItech often, several Key cycles work also.

    DEF

    This is incorrect and in many cases damaging. The heating element gets hot to melt the DEF (Freezes at 12F) the DEF around the element will separate (Urea) and plugs the DEF Injector..... Keep your DEF tank full when convenient, when it gets down to 2/3 Full 2.5 Gallons fills it. Owners that...

    2016 Ram 1500 Eco Diesel turbo replacement

    Yes, if its stop.. I already attempted to do so, in fact even 1/2 hole triggers the code, so 9/32 is the ticket. My guess is you only stop 12-16% of the flow but it better than 100% open.
