    Good stories on Ecodiesel

    Do you actually know? No one that I have seen is claiming that Ram is retrofitting Gen 3 engines for Gen 2 trucks. What has been rumored is that the Gen 2 design was modified.

    Good stories on Ecodiesel

    Couple of questions. Were you tuned? If so what tune and did you have a transmission tune? If you were stock did you have the latest stock programming? From everything I read Ram did two things to address this issue. The first change was moving to 5w40. The second issue was changing...

    New version of engine for Gen 2 trucks

    On Facebook in the Everything EcoDiesel group there is talk of production of the old engine having stopped and a new re-engineered version of the Gen 2 is out. Has anyone reading on here heard of such a thing? This would the tantamount to admitting the engine was a lemon.

    FCA# Z46/ NHTSA# 22V-406

    Oil Change Price

    Higher costs elsewhere. Global market for oil and its associated products. Some genius attached a sovereign nation and the rest of the civilized world is trying to not be drawn in to war but penalizing the country that started the war. This hurts the entire planet. I guess some argue evil...

    BLOWN REPLACEMENT ENGINE

    Good to hear this if it is truly the case. I guess fixing them is cheaper than recalling or buying back.

    Fuel pump recall

    I logged on to mopar.com for the first time in a while and saw that I have a fuel pump recall. Anyone else get this recall?

    P0299 and U1428

    I was driving today on cruise control and got a CEL and a Service Electronic Throttle Control message. Limped home and checked the codes and cleared them. Drove it for approximately 30 minutes with no issues. Not going to stray too far from home with it for now to see if it codes again. 52k...

    Regen started at 90%

    The previous regen had counted down and finished. I waste my precious time and diesel and always drive until they finish. I freaked out at the 90% reading. I was going to buy the alfaobd software to do the manual regen if it went in to limp mode.

    Regen started at 90%

    I have the GDE compliant tune and get around 400 miles per regen and they always start at 80%. This morning as soon as I started the truck up the regen message popped up and it said 90% full. It took longer than usual to start counting down, approximately 20 miles, and it killed my mpg by 1.5...

    Slow Leak in recovery bottle or hoses?

    Are you saying your coolant is disappearing? Did you truck get the EGR recall?

    2017 Ram engine failure

    First off they can't hold your property. You should have told them you were going to call 911. I think that if this is really as widespread as it seems, a class action needs to start. I read these stories but if literally tens of thousands of these engines were failing I think it would be a...

    Any tuners have failed engines?

    And I suppose I should mention that I'm wondering about both those that deleted and those that didn't.

    Any tuners have failed engines?

    I put the original GDE tune on my 2018 3 months after I got it, I had already put 10k miles on it, mostly highway driving. When the EPA compliant tune came out I switched over to it at about 35k and I am now at 51k. The only issues I've had were the EGR recall and a glow plug replaced under...

    Resell demand

    I'm not buying, just selling. They keep telling me they'll go higher the more I ignore them. Diesel was $5.40 here this week.
