    DODGE 1500 2017 eco diesel Need Help

    Thanks for the update, glad you found a decent dealer. I understand the "up roared" and how it affects grammar, been there, done that. Cancer doesn't help either, been there, done that too. Now enjoy your truck.

    DODGE 1500 2017 eco diesel Need Help

    Welcome to the forum. It's a bit difficult to understand your writing and not clear what subject you want ideas on. Aside from that, I would go back to that dealer and make your case with the Service Manager to correct the oil issues. Then, depending on that Service Manager meeting, I might...

    Transmission

    Like Ramman said, it's a sealed lifetime tranny. I'm told that Ram considers lifetime to be 100,000 miles. Unless you are having problems, there's no reason to service it before 100,000 miles.

    Pittsburgh Power's Max Mileage

    I'm using an Edge CTS3. What I am seeing is an Active regen. It begins when the DPF back-pressure reaches a certain point and is interpreted as % soot. The Ecodiesel point is 65% soot. (100% on a CTS3). Most Ecos will not have passive regens because they are not worked hard enough to...

    Pittsburgh Power's Max Mileage

    I haven't used it yet because I want to use up my current mix first. I'm almost there. By the way, my SFT tuned Eco is averaging 275 miles per active regen. And that's 80% 8-20 mile trips and 20% 75 mile trips. I have no way to track passive regens (EGT4) which I doubt occur as the temps...

    SCR Plugged

    Interesting and a bit confusing I've never heard of a tune effecting or clogging the SCR. I've never heard of an SCR recall However, I'm far from being all knowledgeable. Here's the best site for recall info on your truck https://www.mopar.com/ramtrucks/en-us/my-vehicle/recalls/search.html...

    SCR Plugged

    I don't know anything about cleaning or washing the SCR. But I sure would like to know how or why it got soot clogged as I never heard of that before.

    What's the best ecodiesel tune today for "EGR shutoff" but keeping equipment installed?

    Glad I could help. When Jimmy first came out with the Rally he said it was great for towing. Since then, I've read where some are saying don't tow with it and that they were told that by SFT. If it is not for towing, it makes tow haul worthless for towing. And everyone says, tow in tow haul...

    What's the best ecodiesel tune today for "EGR shutoff" but keeping equipment installed?

    Here's the size of my usr files Stock OEM ECM tune file is 130,357 SFT all in one (ECM & TCM) incl Rally tunes file is 1,605,047 Once you upload the OEM tunes and send them to SFT you do nothing until you receive the SFT usr file. Then you upload the SFT usr file onto the handheld. Then you...

    help please - crank, no start

    Gotcha. I've read that. "Once it was shut off, it would not restart." before. And I've read that it is not true, it will restart. Maybe someone who knows what is correct will chime in. I have no comments. Pleas report the conclusions

    help please - crank, no start

    It's my understanding that every truck that had the AEM is eligible for the W58. By your answer I assume you did not own the truck when the AEM was completed. If the AEM was completed after the W58 was announced, maybe they did the W58 at the same time as the AEM. But, if they did, you should...

    help please - crank, no start

    If it is the tone wheel, and you had the W58 recall, it should start and run
