SeanPwnery... I cannot confirm the Tone Ring count down... What I do Know is Most powerplant makers use both the Cam and Crank sensors to operate........ and will trigger the CEL to replace the faulty one, it's just 1 of many short comings this engine has.

John... Never heard that...Defueling would not lower the Temps... only the power..... if the source is 1500diesel.XXX Mods is equivalent to CNN fake information.

All Ram 3.0 VM have two Heat exchangers 1 for lube the other for Trans Fuild, it's really a shifty design and prone to failure.... the Temps are controlled by 3-way Coolant Valve.

Caveman I Hear Ya, the facts are bedplate engines are unforgiving when it come to rotating mass... every spec needs to be dead-on and VM Motori about $500+ million in production upgrades to MFG to current industry standards.

SeanPwnery, The dealership has no idea what their doing... You have been totally rip-off. it takes 5 minutes to check the in-tank lift pump. It takes and expert to correctly diagnose problems like this, in the end it will be a simple fix for someone that knows WTH they are doing...

Another VM 3.0 Pukes out...This also confirms that 2020+ Still are Hero Zero status I'm Sure if I was to spend the time in factoring in ratio's the 2020+ are close to 2014-19 failure rate.

The VM 3.0 is either a Hero or Zero, Do OA trends in most cases you will have early warning notice and time to sell, buyer beware buying used VM 3.0s

Alfa / MX II.

Yes you can remove and clean... it's the ash that accumulates and needs removal. different types brands same process

3-Way coolant Valve.

Its sinks, when placed in Stationary de-soot, just placing the vehicle 1 time in stationary de-soot will NOT always clean it sufficiently. I will continue de-sooting until the smell is gone. Hard to say on re-setting or re-flashing, it works at times.
