    Reported problems on the EcoDiesel

    I know what you mean I had to climb over my Center console and out the passenger door for almost two weeks when the deer smashed up my door and fender. Not real happy about that

    Hi everybody,

    Were you still on factory oil when it blew or are you having hell because you did one change yourself? Possibly with wrong oil? Any word what the cause was to the failure?

    my truck

    Bought the truck from Canada and imported to the states I think. Took advantage of low Canadian dollar. And bought Used. But yeah factory powertrain should be regardless. My father in law had just bought a 11' Silverado with 36k from insurance auction that was totalled but it's still under...

    average MPG towing with the ecodiesel

    Hauling fencing home for a spring/summer project. Was a 2 hour trip got 18 or so pulling the trailer empty with bad crosswinds but hit a 20MPH headwind coming home and it was pretty rough. About 12MPG. But comparing it to a gas truck I won't complain. Pulling empty was same MPG you see in a gas...

    Oil change not taking 10.5 quarts

    I never heard anything about a guy having his truck lowered on him but I go under the front not under the running board. I can fit in normal it just makes it roomy in offroad. Though that would suck. Consider running an engine with too much oil can do as much damage as running it with too...

    Oil change not taking 10.5 quarts

    I guess I don't use ramps because I have factory air I just put it in offroad2 and slide underneath on a creeper. But the drain is on the rear of the oil pan so elevation sure as hell isn't going to hold a quart and a half of oil. And do not put 10-10.5 in regardless. Too much oil ruins...

    DRL's do you have them or not???

    It is possible the dealership just needs to transfer a code to be active in the truck. Most techs will have no clue what you're talking about but look around on the regular ram forums and the codes are out there for different styles of the drl whether it be running lamp or half power high beams...

    mileage between oil changes and do i really have to use euro

    The computer will never calculate a change based on duty cycle that's solely operator discretion. So be aware of what you're doing to your engine. Better safe than sorry. And Shop around for oils that meet spec. It can be had much less than the $200 dealer oil change. Mine run about 80 for oil...

    engine failure @ 148000 miles.

    May I quote? Because nobody knows. But "contact d&j diesel to have them bulletproof your ecodiesel and to see what they do/did" ~trade secret~ Honestly unknown why Shawn is so secretive of whatever he did
