    Delete the EGR. Do a 60 hp tune through a reputable source. Get a transmission tune. If you’re a grease monkey like me, look into a full BG flush process. Many of the folks on here lose oil pressure and never get it back. I did. Full cleaning with fresh oil 2X with BG, including removing and...

    Sorry to hear that. I escaped California in 2019. Best decision I have made for myself and my family. We are very happy away from there.

    Message...."Service Electronic Throttle Control"....No codes & SFT

    Service Electronic Throttle is a generic code for these trucks. A very common issue is the connection with cabling underneath the truck below the driver’s seat. It is along the rail. Disconnect your battery, open up that connection and put dialectic grease on the connections. Another issue is...

    Oil Pickup VERY IMPORTANT Post

    I want to introduce this thread for good banter. I’ve found so many posts on here about trucks’ engines going belly up because of spun bearings and lost oil pressure. I was almost one of those truck owners about 20,000 miles ago at 180k. This information is not going to be complicated. Use an...

    It happened, my 2018 ecodiesel engine blown up

    Run engine cleaner through it and clean out your oil pan and pickup. You’ll be fine. People nowadays forget to do that stuff. I’ve got 207k and running better than ever.

    It happened, my 2018 ecodiesel engine blown up

    After using a good internal engine cleaner, drop the oil pan, clean the oil pick up thoroughly, and then do it again. Lots of oil gunk buildup. I have 203,000 and still going strong.

    Zero oil pressure weirdness

    I fixed it. Clogged screen pickup and nasty pan.

    Zero oil pressure weirdness

    No video, but I will say this. It’s very messy, so take your time, prep the area. Be careful to not damage anything and be patient. There’s a lot of nasty in that pan to be cleaned out, and the screen will be completely clogged. WD-40 works great to soak it.
