New Member 2022 Ram ecoDiesel owner

Good Day everyone,
Just purchased a 2022 Ram ecoDiesel with 21k miles. Love it so far. Before purchase I thought I had done my research on the Ram ecoDiesel over the V8 Hemi but after getting on this forum and seeing the engine replacement and other horrid issues, now I'm starting to wonder.
Any advice on fuel or oil additives that may help prevent some of these failures I'm reading about?
I was previously on the Ram Forum and all I read was great stories of MPG and ecoDiesel longevity.
Anyway for now, loving this truck....

Ram 1500diesel.XXX is the poster forum for cover up OF all VM Motori and Fiat , Failures.... the facts all VM 3.0 are Hero-Zero Status. Some get years of good service, others need 3+ engines in 5 years of use. Service intervals are required for all VM 3.0 power plants.

Many of the issues are in the older engines. First generation ? I have a 2020 and I love it.

I am still loving my 2016 Laramie 4x4 ecodiesel quad. Clocked 138k miles this week. I have done all maintenance myself (after the 2 years included oil changes). Don't skip the transmission! All recall services done, except the fuel pump. I need to call about that again tomorrow. Def pump failed last month. Purchased a new replacement from ebay & a new injector (chinese copy) from amazon. Dropped and rinsed the tank then flushed the injector supply line with a syringe & distilled water. 1200 miles since & she still treats me better than my wife. Always remember it is a LIGHT duty pickup & you'll probably be fine. Whew! I'll shut up now
