We have received notification of a new program for the AEM which is to address the turbo lag. Or you can investigate the Gayle Banks Power Products Derringer, the Sofa Tune King program, or wait until Green Diesel Engineering comes out with their CARB/EPA approved program, to take care of turbo...

You should be fine with the eco 1/2 ton, when I pulled our old Salem FSX toyhauler, about 6.5K lbs. loaded, I averaged 13mpg, we just traded to a heavier XLR toyhauler and in two weeks will take a shakedown trip and will see what the mileage is. Now for the disclaimer, I unknowingly bought a RAM...

Dag nab it. I guess the wife and I are in the minority, my RAM just turned over 117K and my wife's Jeep just turned over 145K!! When we were at the dealership picking up my RAM after the DEF tank replacement a salesman asked my wife is she was interested in trading in and she replied "only if...

Welcome to the forum CAVEMAN. First the transfer or use of technology among the FCA brands is not universal. My wife's 2013 Charger the oil change monitor would vary based upon driving conditions, just like "hossman" referred to. However my experience with my RAM and my wife's Jeep GC eco is...

Hey I'm old too, just installing a straight pipe and uninstalling the multiple sensors involved would not entail a stop every 200 miles to reset. I am sorry but several of the codes that would be tripped would place you in "Limp Home Mode" that would not be reset except by dealer. Your best...

I do not want to sound like I have my head in the sand or a hater on diesels but if you research all diesels in pickup trucks using the SCR/DEF particulate exhaust system you will find that ALL are having issues when driven in Daily Driver Stop & Go activities. There are a few issues that are...

I will echo the poor lubricity of Jet A. In the day there was not a real issue as the diesel of the time had sufficient sulfur content to allow for occasional low lubricity levels (15,000 ppm). Todays ultra low sulfur (15ppm or less) does not tolerate low lubricity levels for very long. Example...

Report to NHTSA. Call the firm managing the AEM lawsuit settlement. The second AEM program, we have the recall statement for that, is to address issues with the original AEM, such as turbo lag, poor power, poor fuel mileage.

Really weird, my tune works perfectly with my transmission. The AEM tune does change the transmission tune, earlier downshifts later upshifts. As I stated earlier my mileage went up approximately 2mpg average. Of course it improved enough that the 2.5 hour drive to OKC and 2.5 back doesn't use a...

Well the next question would be why? Jet A runs about $1.00 a gl. more than #2 Diesel.

Complex answer to Quick Question. I could not give a succinct answer to additives needed to bring JetA to Diesel #2, however, they are both mixtures of crude oil refinement. Jet A is closely related to Kerosene differentiated by purity and additives, normally a long chain molecule ranging from...

I will attempt to attach a file scan of my letter, like I stated my wife's Jeep GC eco and my RAM both have the 2nd recall notice on the same day.

The DEF tank is sized to be filled at oil change interval as calculated DEF consumption or 8gls. of DEF in 10K miles. The largest DEF tank on the market.

From the best of my research there is an official unofficial understanding that the Jeep eco is covered under the VB-1 recall. The right dealer the right service manager and verifiable condition is key and vehicle has to be down. Parts are in short supply, surprise right, so no official...

I am still confused over this issue. The EGR failure recall is in response to the engine fire issue as well as engine internal failure. Yet FCA wants to deny knowledge of every engine fire. I would be lead to believe that reports to NHTSA of engine fires may change some minds. I did not report...

Caveat! I would not have bought my 2014 if it ran like it did post AEM. It ran great before, a little weak towing 5K to 6K but normal driving great. Post AEM horrible. Within two weeks went with GDE, better than original, especially towing, same tow with no issues. My only real reoccurring issue...

My 2014 always is slow to warm up. I have the radiator louvers, but I have modified to allow for external oil cooler fan. I will plug in block heater anything below the low 30's. Mine tends to get to about 147 and hovers until highway speed then warms up to 201. I have replaced my thermostat and...

That looks like the DEF Injector. I have had to replace the #2 sensor which is described as the Carbon Level Sensor, still an O2 sensor, in my wife's Jeep GC eco. It had set a code, cleared, set again, replaced with OEM as the aftermarket did not cover, that was two years back. $185.00.

Mine just quits out of the blue, while engaged it just quits and will not turn back on. Or will not turn on at all until I stop and restart. No amount of pressure, sequence. Replaced the touch pad and all was good for awhile then back to intermittent function. My next stop will be the steering...

I have replaced the Carbon Level Sensor on my wife's JEEP eco which solved that code. The regen normally occurs at 2K and above rpms and normally occurs without any notification. Heavy foot does equal more soot but with sufficient highway driving regen takes care of it.
