2016 Lone Star 4x4….167,000 bought new, $50k.
Replaced tone ring, turbo cooler line under intake manifold, brake rotors (slotted and drilled), rear shocks, and new battery… elected add ons … lift kit, winch, method wheels with 35 inch Toyo ATs, trailer brake controller, high lift air bag spring...
I wanted to have a piece of steel braided line clamped In, service writer said they couldn’t install it if I did that to it. I don’t have a diesel mechanic I trust, and some diesel shops won’t touch the Eco.
I have a GDE 2.0 with trans tune, I had to specify not to reflash my ecu. Turned out it wasn’t the EGR cooler, it was a turbo cooling line under the intake. It has a short piece of hose in the middle of 2 hardliners, the hose bakes between the block and the intake manifold and cracks and fails...
My thoughts exactly! should have been steel braided line. The truck was in the shop for over a week because the part is on backorder, and then they couldn't get it it all. The dealer price for the part is over $200 bucks, the used one on Ebay was $35. Originally the dealer wanted $2200 for the...
Actually wasnt EGR leaking after all, it was the turbo cooler line spraying coolant under the intake manifold. Part is on backorder, I found a used on on Ebay and the dealer installed it for 1400.00
Thanks for the advice, I think the pan with the built in filter is all I will ever need, I went 161k on the first one, I don’t plan on changing the fluid again. All this time I was under the impression that it was a sealed system and “lifetime” fluid. Lol.
I’ve had 7 Rams, This is the first...
The dealership said flush at 60k? ram says it’s a sealed system with lifetime fluid. I just changed mine at 160k, yes change the pan too, the filter is built into it along with the magnets. After 160k I can say my trans was still working perfectly. But since ZF suggests a change every 50-60k I...
I love my truck, don't get me wrong, I have 160K on it now and its like new, I've kept up with all the maintenance, except changing the trans fluid, which Ive recently learned should be changed at 50K intervals. I bought the new pan and the crazy expensive fluid, but Im afraid... its working...
My EGR is leaking, dealer put me on a waiting list... its time to do the delete, I can buy the kit and physically do it myself, but the tuning is my question. Where and who? I have the GDE 2.0 tuner, will that help me retune? do I even have to retune? can I buy a new tuner kit? Can I buy a new...
