    Air suspension pump leaking?

    I apologize for the delayed response. It appears that you have lost the Nitrogen charge. Definite leak. The system is a closed type that moves Nitrogen gas from a storage tank to the bags as necessary and back. That being said once you selected OffRoad II the system will attempt to achieve that...

    Air Suspension System Replacement

    Sorry to hear you guys are having issues. I had read other threads from a couple of years back about cold weather issues. My wife and I have had no issues with either of our air systems short of a weak fuse. We have taken several off of older Land Rovers but in the last couple of years the...

    GED tune failures??

    I removed my oil cooler/heater shortly after 100K miles, extended warranty, for an external filter cooler. No issues just wanted more consistent oil temps. I have eliminated the potential for stock cooler failure but have still not achieved cooler oil temps.

    EcoDiesel flash with settlement

    Can not explain individual performance but can state that the average is experiencing the same drop in performance as my 14 post AEM. I have talked with a 18 owner in my town and the first thing he asked me was if my truck had a massive hesitation while cold. It took me a minute to stop laughing...

    2020 EcoDiesel sneak peak from TFLT

    Like we used to say "whatever lets you sleep at night" you should drive what you have confidence in. My 14 did not like the mountains going to Montana from Oklahoma and after the AEM I had doubts it could pull the RV at all, it had difficulty pulling the uphill start assist. I had 104K miles on...

    2020 EcoDiesel sneak peak from TFLT

    Sounds just like my 14. Now the official specs state changes to be new pistons, for combustion chamber changes, fuel injectors, EGR low and high pressure, block girdle. The block has always been compacted graphite. From the view of the engine compartment the coolant system has been redesigned...

    What's the best Engine Tune

    The best tuner depends on you and your needs and where your live. Three good tunes, Banks, GDE, SofaTune King. GDE and Sofa Tune King turns off the EGR, Banks does not, but does carry a CARB approval number, they all provide the same results. No turbo lag, 20Hp, 45 ft. lbs. of torque over...

    Any EGR Delete Tips or Tricks?

    As long as your program shuts off the egr then you will not get the multiple error codes and Limp Home Mode. The EGR is actually the cause of many of the eco issues. Of course you are aware of warranty issues, modifications of Federally mandated exhaust emission systems, etc. etc. Banks tune...

    Loss of acceleration and fuel mileage and over all pulling power

    John has been here awhile. I have had few real problems with my eco as well, drive it like I should, try to take care of it like I should. Hated the AEM performance, my wife's Jeep eco didn't run as bad as my truck, but did run different. Yes I tuned my truck and my wife's Jeep, with FCA money...

    How many miles on your ecodiesel and have you had any problems?

    Dealer makes all the difference in the world. There is no excuse for the normal warranty items, engine, now they only have so much to work with. My 14 ran great until the oil change program, but it still ran a lot better than the AEM. At 102K got a "tune" and my old truck plus is back. It is sad...

    2014 heating issue

    Tune. Tune. Tune. Some people remove shutters, if they are on your truck. My recent trip to Montana saw Boseman Pass at 35K rpms, 3rd gear, flat on the floor, down power rated temps, pull over at top of grade, with every other tow vehicle to let cool down. Did I mention Tune? Some people install...

    Manifold intake cleaning . Or new Banks intake install

    BG products have a system and product to clean intake while installed, engine running. I used on my Wife's 2015 Grand Cherokee eco two days later got "DPF 100% full" message, had to do stationary regen, not too much of a fan. TC likes to remove intake and use a foam cleaning agent, good idea...

    2014 eco diesel Hi

    Welcome to the site. Brother I bought my 2014 with 20K miles on it in 2016, I now have 103K. I do all my oil and filter changes as well as fuel filter, I was initially concerned to have only one fuel filter as my past diesel experience always had two fuel filters. Well I changed fuel filter at...

    Catch Can...CFT no codes really? Shawn Mopecodiesel talks of Vacuum and why codes and how to remedy (tap and drill new line to boost air)

    Installed catch can on my Wife's 2015 Grand Cherokee eco with not codes no issues, with stock ECM and update AEM, drain at oil change with satisfactory high viscosity sludge contained.

    New ECO Recall report

    My 2014 RAM had the same issues related here on this thread. My wife's 2015 Grand Cherokee same issues but not to the same severity. My truck turbo lag was deadly, could not pull my driveway with the Hill Assist turned on, or off, when cold. When the engine got past the turbo lag it would smoke...

    Loss of acceleration and fuel mileage and over all pulling power

    Same experience here. Turbo lag was terrible, power overall seemed low compared to my norm. My average seemed up by 2mpg but I did not keep it long, as the lag and loss of power it was apparent that I would not have made the pulling trip to Montana that we had just finished. The GDE tune...

    Software update recall

    I just recently had the AEM and TCM update installed on my 2014 RAM, but before we left on vacation pulling our RV we had the wife's 2015 Jeep GC install. We both have noticed a marked turbo lag when engine is cold, on the range of close to deadly, improves as engine heats up, but still...

    Exhaust filter

    Good to see a Jeeper on the forum. My wife drives a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland eco, 123,000mi. She had seen the active regen message three times last year, after extended city driving, I got a code for bad sensor on DPF last winter and changed. First of May got the 100% DPF Full error...

    Posted before, but now have 101,434 miles, just got back from pulling new Toy Hauler RV to Montana, then straight to dealer for recall reprogram. No real issues. I have installed external oil cooler which I will be relocating as I am not satisfied with its performance. Only averaged 13mpg on the...

    claim filing: is your owner/former owner status measured as of the date you file a claim?

    The way I interpreted what I read in the proposed settlement is that IF a previous owner also files then the settlement is split.
