If I am following the stock program and getting proper dealer maintenance intervals and also know what the carbon(SOOT)is doing to the engine (AND the FCA and owners too!) how come there is no EGR design change to trap the soot. I have read and watched every idea out there from EGR Deletes to oil catch cans but why is the FCA not being held accountable. This soot issue will be an issue for most owners right after the warranty. The FCA knows this and is riding all ED owners who remain stock to be "plugged" later physically and with the bill$. Why is there no FCA bulletin available to the public on this soot issue or remedy that is manufature approved?

Planned obsolescence / GREEDonomic leading to build as cheap as possible so that big fat bonuses paid to Legacy Auto's top execs is the main reasons for Nations' waste in time and money, lack of productivity and downward spiral Thanks to FCA, GM, Ford, Nissan, etc... Who could not care less about me and you dealing with their State of Art Planned Obsollesence.

"" Chemical cleaning of
the intake runs the soot into the combustion chamber
and then a bigger problem than before.""

Here is the Banks Intake manifold solution (No Plastic, No Swirl Valve) which require some software update too:
Has anyone used this and could report on it's improvment over factory?

Stellantis is in decline, I doubt there will be customer support for any of us with Eco Diesels. I did a delete, and I wish I had done it years ago, more power, no def, no regen nonsense or soot issues, cooler temps, no lag, just win win.
