Yes, I mentioned it in another thread. Article stated exactly why I had already decided to switch to the CJ4 standard oil when I purchased my 2014 used. With all the members who use fuel analysis it was amazing to me that no one had caught the symptom long ago. Your engine issues may be more closely related to the type of oil your dealer is using at your oil changes.

I have had two blown engines since August 2016. FCA has refused to take truck back. Hired lawyer and refused with attorney. They keep making up stories because they dont know how to fix it. Engine flawed. My truck is back at dealer again with low oil pressure. There trying to say bad fuel. 8k repair at my expense on this newly installed second engine. Called bank and told them I am forced to walk away.
I'll post a better pic of the exhaust in my garage. Yes emissions intact. Have very strict diesel laws and yearly smog checks on light diesels here in Vegas.
Hi sir have heard of the law suit. And what do you think will happened. Would they by back this trucks . My truck at the dealership getting new motor. https://youtu.be/ZR-BwGoc3R8

No one really knows at this point. It might take a few years to get to the bottom of it.
My 2015 ram now has S&B cold air intake Sprint booster at the Excelerator pedal and a banks bullet runs great and a Snoway plow lets run
I wrote about the remote start if used and you don't get heat it's because the door or valve for the heater core did not activate open and you won't get heat in the cab so you have to shut off the truck with the key in the ignition and restart it with the key and it cycles open that's what happen to me apparently it's a glitch and there was a few more that had it happen to them that same day.

This is what throttle ingnition gets you. Two blown engines and back at dealer last saturday again for same thing. FCA has refused since 2016 to take truck back and give me another replacement with an attorney. I am now forced to walk away credit ruined and financial ruin. I have taken to national press Fox news, CBS, local news and the NTSB for investigation . FCA is passing the buck and laughing at all of us.
is there a back up that can be acquired for the GDE tune just in case you have to go to dealer and they reflash your ecu

You would have to have a total different ECM and swap your stock ECM when visiting the dealer.
