CS, 2018 has SGM, I hate the EGR setup on the 3.0VM and its choke this engine to its death.
Regardless of what GDE advertises they cannot avoid detection in 2018+ FCA vehicles.
You can bypass the module but its integrated into the Vehicle so any tempering will be detected. Plus rumor has it...
No Eco, the EPA is on the Hunt, Have you look into what manufacturing delete Kit may cost you $$$$$$$$.
I won't mention names.. But one individual ignore the cease and de-sit order, He was arrested and the court order was like this, Manufacture or produce any defeat or delete tunes for on road...
Also The DEF gauge is somewhat funny in Rams, but just keep a memory of when and How far you drive and guessing works pretty good the ED uses about 1GP 400 miles normal use , pulling it can drop down to 1GP 150-200 miles.... I reset My DEF gauge with WItech often, several Key cycles work also.
This is incorrect and in many cases damaging. The heating element gets hot to melt the DEF (Freezes at 12F) the DEF around the element will separate (Urea) and plugs the DEF Injector..... Keep your DEF tank full when convenient, when it gets down to 2/3 Full 2.5 Gallons fills it.
Owners that...
Yes, if its stop.. I already attempted to do so, in fact even 1/2 hole triggers the code, so 9/32 is the ticket. My guess is you only stop 12-16% of the flow but it better than 100% open.

As you read the pages form pages 80 + FCA is NOW ordered to report violations to the EPA, They are also ordered to monitor and implement
.
Subject to standard limitations...
I would delete just like you did......If memory serves Me I believe the MPG is the last 250 miles or so, It re-calibrates....I do agree the ED gets great Mileage.... I have customers with 500K+ miles and 8000+hrs on trucks running factory emissions, So asking the 3.0 to go 200K miles trouble...
All HWY, No 3.0 avg 27MPG DD use. and if I was to use Gas HWY the difference would be the same....and No ED avg 27MPG unless its 2WD RC/SB strip down and lives in FL. L-O-M is pegging the needle?
I did some rough math, $2250.00 at $2.5 PGM Both gas and diesel .Diesel Avg 20MPG and Gas 13MPG it will take 45,000 miles of driving to break even. We all know Diesel cost More than gas so it take 50,000 miles before the break even on delete alone, add your $780 and your looking at 70,000 mile...
Yep... Canada Owners are getting the X out of the ED... Again and again. its Hero , Zero Status, In long term ownership with DD use is just not worth the risk to own.
