Unfortunate scenario and I can't believe the dealers would leave you in that position. What about your purchasing dealer at home? Will they after the fact provide a loaner or won't they touch you without them physically doing the warranty Work?

I'd have flipped beyond your current state. Filing lemon law at this point and notifying Chrysler of doing so is definitely your best bet right now.

At least someone's seeing snow this winter

Considering that is the only one on the ecodiesel yeah probably.

@renewal101 @01TwoForty you are right the "oil cooler" is only a heat sink that is moreso an oil warmer to get oil to efficient operating temps but it does virtually no good to actually cool the engine temp only capable of bringing it to coolant temp. If you look near the oil filter there is a...

A fuel Filters life is extended by simply draining it into a bucket. A gallon ice cream pail or the bottom half of a washer fluid or other frequently used gallon size jug sits perfectly on top of the drive shaft to catch any spillage. The factory drain plug takes a long time to drain. It vapor...

I've seen -35 below and the only issues I have is the blower not quite keeping up with defrosting the windows if there's too many people in the truck. But then again I've had a winter cover on at least partial since it's been 60°F and dwindling. I do know that if your climate control is on Auto...

I've heard of the throttle control. Maybe just a nox sensor for the exhaust. It's not been cold enough to really foul anything in the DEF system except maybe the injector is just plugged

You do get quite a bit of room to alter and Work with the quad reflectors. The factory projectors are super tight. I've managed to squeeze my ballasts and ignitors into the housing though and it's clean. All I have is two short wires coming from the seam of the rear cover for my HID power input...

Very nice

That's not GDE that's ram factory. It idles higher when the fluid is cold. There is a high idle switch available after market. It's compatible for the ecodiesel but designed for the Cummins. Regardless it's just plug and play on the rams fly by wire. But it runs almost 200$ but has many high...

@seiko you just stated in another Post for Fleet operators 350 hours to an oil change and at 25 miles/hour of wear that's 8750 miles. So not seriously that much of an increase over driving. @55MPH you'd put on 180 hours/10,000mi. Calculate 10,000/350hr it's ~28mi. But 350 hours Max on oil is...

Pretty impressive indeed

He's not questioning oil cooler failure @renewal101 he's Canadian and referencing the intercooler icing up which is another problem ecodiesel's particularly ones in cold climate have experienced. Which is something that actually resulted in a FCA recall.

So they claim to have extended the thermal shutters to cover the ENTIRE radiator on the 2016 models? That's news to me..

As much as a root cause and analysis would be great; I'd be a happy camper just to have the truck back and driving just as you seem to be. And surprisingly you had a great turn around time

Unfortunately the way it works is once it's replaced and shipped off it's out of sight and therefore out of mind and he likely will never hear anything from the dealer.

Well just because one can does not mean they should run 3000+ rpms and pull up a long grade trying to maintain a speed that's not necessary and overwhelming the truck. It's entirely driving habits that are pushing the high egt's that you see. If you don't like them or want to see it that high...

It's completely associated with driving habits. And as Shawn's videos have shown if you've ever watched them in detail regen's do tend to happen at the worst time and do not always complete as it will be starting right as you're coming off the highway etc. I have my ecodiesel for multiple...

Wow that is beyond anything that I can find words for. A mechanic doesn't take a phone or coat with him on a test drive; experiences engine failure; and then essentially says F***It and proceeds to run your truck into the ground. I absolutely cannot believe that happened. That's low even for...
