This is true, GDE explicitly states that their tune is EPA Compliant and is 49 state available. It appears that the existing EPA lawsuit to decertify California as able to issue and enforce standards more stringent than Federal standards will be dead in the water in January, your situation is...
It has been a minute since your post. If you still have the truck the tune is the answer. The EPA compliant Green Diesel Engineering program is what I have changed to from the earlier GDE tuned ECM which was not compliant. So much for that. The new program stores your OEM tune and then programs...
The dealer makes a big difference if they have a competent technician. If your dealer does not have a competent technician I would recommend a change in dealerships.
Please fill out a NHTSA report for this incident. My EGR recall notice went to great lengths to state that this was a "voluntary recall" due to "the low rate of occurrence" of engine compartment fires. It is deplorable that a company as large as FCA would announce a recall in April and my parts...
Brother you should be inline for the EGR Cooler recall. Get on the list at a dealer you trust. The EGR cooler leaks one of two ways, internally or externally, but both end up with overheating and coolant loss. Then tune it afterward, you will be amazed at the difference 20 or so HP and 40 to 50...
I share your desire to see root cause, but according to my V08 recall paperwork in front of me, this Authorized Emission Modification entails a ECM program download only. The extended warranty, additional 4 years/40K miles includes, among other items, Cylinder Head Assembly, including valves...
I do not know if there is a max temp on the probe, I do know that when my oil temp achieved 270F my engine down tuned HP, flat on the floor, 30 mph, 3rd gear. until I could pull over and let temps fall. That was with the OEM tune. I should have added that my final cure for high temps, water...
I had these issues with heat as well, with OEM tune and configuration, pulling 6,000 lbs flat ground with headwind. Added the now no longer sold oil cooler and remote oil filter and lowered antifreeze temp to 210/212 but oil stayed in the 270 range, trans still 220 and above for short periods...
I was lead to believe that the oil cooler failure was predominately effecting the 2014 model. I installed a delete with external filter and cooler from D&J Diesel, they no longer sell this item. I found that removing the oil temperature load on the engine coolant dropped the coolant temperature...
Sorry my dealer in Oklahoma is doing them. You have to put yourself on the waiting list as FCA is only shipping parts to dealers with customers on list, and then in a trickle. Notified in July that parts were coming in and got into the dealer for install the first week of August. Terrible...
The reading on the dash both analog and digital are a representation of what the ECM programing calculates what the oil pressure should be at the existing engine temperature, RPM, gear selection, throttle setting. So it means that the on/off engine oil pressure switch shows oil pressure above...
I got my EGR Recall replacement the first week of August as well as the 2nd version of the AEM. It didn't have as bad a turbo delay as the first version but it was still there in cold run. Down on power from my GDE tune. I drove it three or four weeks and installed the EPA Compliant GDE program...
TC I have looked and rewritten these numbers to try and completely understand your logic and I truthfully don't get it.
That being said the upfront option for 3.0 ED in a new truck is too high in my opinion, it does run the break even for cost of ownership way out on mileage.
Even when my...
I sent the paper work for my RAM and my wife's Jeep on the same day, had some errors and corrected about a month later. I received my full check shortly after getting the first AEM installed, My wife however hadn't received a check for a year, had to reapply and select "Partial payment" and wait...
Welcome to the club. I forgot I have replaced one inner tie rod end at 112K miles at front end alignment but consider it as maintenance. Did not go with OEM parts used heavy duty MOOG part. If you must, use OEM filters, oil, air, fuel, if not I recommend WEX, MAHLE, Amzoil oil and fuel filters...
