    Cleaned map sensor and egr tube wow!

    Follow the recommendation in Post 21 to have both the Plenum and EGR replace, have the tech check the intake valves for warping and if they are you should demand engine replacement.

    Cleaned map sensor and egr tube wow!

    Banks does not add to the soot, take it to dealer and complain that its surging and loosing coolant, the EGR and Plenum will be replace, do this every 30-40K miles (BC it will be completely sooted up) and hope your rotating mass survives until 120K and dump the bit***. Make sure you collect...

    2018 Problems??

    Some EDs have lasted, over 300K miles, those are 80-90% HWY miles. The ED was marketed for Family use and sold for DD grocery getting, FCA underdeveloped the power plant for this use. Now the Matter is more problematic with the NON-recognition of Cento QC. Now comes the cheating on emissions...

    Exhaust filter 100% full Service Required

    The filter is located Mid frame , The Cover will do nothing for Fuel gelling, The real issue in the cold is VM again and the poor programing that does NOT allow the VGT ( Turbo Back Pressure) vanes to engage at Idle. Your CAC temp will raise installing that cover in temps above 30F, that equals...

    I would switch T-6, Penn's oil 5-30w is loaded with CAL, any coolant finds its way to the lube MS11106 will self-destruct the rotating mass in short order. Over the course of Time MS11106 Penn's will increase wear do to the lack of additives' , Zinc, Moly, Mag.

    Reminder never cross Mayan Elephant, And as usual the 1500diesel.com cheerleaders are peeing the Kool-aid they drank. Those Cheerleaders, Have been spanked good and just keep gulping it down. They also claim NO buy back,, that may be case but FCA is willing to negotiate take ins. I'm...

    Yep.. the owners with Maxcare should crunch the #s Forest lake Ram was selling Eco's back in 2014 with lifetime lubricate parts warranty and with the New Settlement those 1st time buyers that still Have their ED would be sitting good for 10 Years/120KM

    OK.... and if you ask is this settlement mandatory the reply would likely been different..... And most attorney's will tell their clients until your compliant is before a Judge in the Court of Jurisdiction any thing can Happen. The only area I believe a Lower court has to follow the render...

    Justlucky, Its doubtful your attorney would have stated its an Order, its a settlement at owners acceptance, with court approval. The settlement is generous in many cases for owners that want to Keep their ED, it will also increase the value IMO, and give owners another card to play if they...

    Where did I say NOT operable? John.....I agree FCA Should NOT be held accountable for owners actions... Geeze , I tried support NO altercation, but My plenum was done at 40K miles even after several foaming's. I gave in to tuning to shutdown the EGR after much effort to alter its inherent...

    Its what's NOT in the agreement that at times count, and Nowhere does it demand owners to except the agreement. My relationship with FCA is not normal or average....

    Much needs to be considered, 1st now ,when it pays to loyal to the local dealership, In My case they will push through any offer I'M willing to do... they will make it work, FCA has to meet the COC on every vehicle (Certificate of compliance) IMO this may required trade in value Plus...

    I think the values will rise again....the 2017-18 buyers are really screwed. a low mileage 2014-16 will bring more. Those emission parts on 2017-18 all end at 50-80K miles, according the settlement those parts+ will be warranty 10 years 120K miles.

    Yes, this is correct ,The Settlement in NO way impedes FCA to offer additional incentives. FCA... Ecodiesel's 3.0 MUST meet the COC at time of Purchase, In other words if you don't except the offer you can negotiate a buyback. The offer in many cases is generous, But if you want out of...
