I'm going through the same crap with my tyuck.
So far the dealer told me the problem was due to a fuil issue so they replaced the fuil filter and added a fuil additive. I have paid and installed the block heater cable my self and the dealer said the grill cover should be used but i have to pay for that.
They do have the software update for the truck so it will run better in cold weather but i also have to pay for that to be down loaded to the truck. I'm having them do the software update but also arguing with them as to why i have to pay for it.
FYI i also have a stuck float in the DEF tank witch they said the tank needs to be replaced and the tank cost $2,500 so I'm trying to get that covered by the extended warranty i got.

When I had those problems the dealer said it was fuel injectors. The replaced them and the fuel filter. I decided to use Power service diesel fuel supplement and have not had any more problems. there is a summer grade in silver bottle and winter grade in white bottle. Comrs in quart bottles and good for 100 gallons. Most auto supply stores have it and Walmart has it. I mix 8 oz to each tank of fuel.

Long time listener, first time caller...got my ED (EcoDiesel, not erectile disfunction) 2 days ago.

Was gonna go goose hunting today but it was -16 at my lease so I figured I'd need to keep the sucker running for a bit and didn't want to make the run w/o a winter front...

Does Wendy the wonder rep know that every truck comes with a block heater, but not all have the power cord?

Nope, most dealers have no idea of many things themselves. Places like this make it awesome for us owners.
