    Good evening all, The ETC warning light came on out of nowhere this past week. Turned off my 2018 Ecodiesel and when I went to turn it back on the truck was having trouble starting. Called the dealer and was thinking it was fuel pressure related as I got my high pressure fuel pump replaced...

    Turbo problems

    Regen issue

    So even though I’ve posted many times this is not a grocery getter, I went from putting a 100,000 on my truck in two years to driving it just 4 miles a day because we bought a retail store.

    My 2015 EcoD threw a P2138-00 code and the dealership said my pedal position sensors failed. They want $914 total ($370 parts and $424 labor then tax and fees).

    Electronic Throttle Control Nightmare

    So my truck pops up the "electronic Throttle control needs service" and I take it in. Dealer says the air filter is full of what looks like sand. Did not know to ask which filter. Not covered under warranty and charges $250 and clears the code. Great, whatever. Now I'm towing a light boat for...
