wow, I hate to ask what this is gonna cost... that's brutal. :cry:

that's good to hear, not so good for the one you bought from...

wow, that's brutal, esp for a 2018!! freaken thing was so new. so sorry to hear that.

Another easy thing you can do is check your DEF injector, they get caked up with crystalized DEF almost every 3-4 months. I got in the habit of checking it every oil change, and by then, it's almost fully plugged up with crystalized def. If you have a hand-held steamer (the ones you use for...

VERY true, as does any tune. If warrantee is the worry, just keep the stock ECU and buy an extra ECU with a tune or look at other tunes. Gotta outweigh the options. If you want to keep the truck long term, you gotta protect it from all this emission crap that is self-destroying the truck...

so sorry to hear that. Are they covering it under warranty?? What caused the failure, did they say?

When you take the diffuser tube out, also pull out the MAP sensor and clean the carbon off that, if that gets really fouled, it'll start throwing intake throttle codes. Watch this video, he shows you where the map sensor is around 3:10, it's a 6-point star key to remove it. Once you take the...

At the time, I hadn't heard of SFT, and I went by reputation and years on the market. GDE has been around a long time, and after a lot of research, GDE had what I was looking for. I wasn't after more power. My concern was the EGR and soot buildup, and REGEN's and keeping the truck running...

The injector usually doesn't need to be replaced. Dealers just want to make $$$ off of warrantee stuff. A quick zap with steam and it will come right off and open it up. Funny how the dealers don't even know that it can be cleaned really easily. You don't need a pressure gun, just a steamer...

at the bottom right, beside the D, the # on the left is the current gear 1, on the right is the max gear 8 you want it to stop shifting at.

not sure, haven't seen that one. YOu can see gears up on the EVIC display though, just his the minus gear button, then move it up to 8, and beside it is what gear you're in.

If you also want the PID for the DPF Temp reading, this is a good one cause here's where you can see it jump from an average of 400 up to 1300 F when it's in regen... then settle back down to 400-500 F when regen is OFF. The whole cycle is about 12-15 min and happens without most people even...

not sure about the gear selector, but I have the PID's for the regen ON / OFF if you want. Good to know when the truck is in REGEN mode behind the scenes. PID 018b Long Name: DPF REGEN MODE Short Name: RegenMode Min Value 0.0 Max Value 1.0 Scale x1 Unit Type: MODE Equation {B:0} Then...

One option is give GDE a call, in Michigan. Sounds like you want the off road tune. You can drive there, took about 20 min when I went there in person rather than sending it off and waiting...

Have you ever removed the DEF injector right in front of the SCR? The injector gets all plugged up with crystalized DEF. I clean mine everytime I change the oil, sometimes sooner. Best way I've learned to tell now if it's plugged up is if I take a quick wiff of the exhaust, if you don't...

I'm with Arkie 16, other than my EGR cooler which was replaced under warantee, so far so good. I did put a gde tune on it to help protect it from self destruction down the road, mostly shutting off egr... One thing with these diesels, is you have to really learn a lot and you have to keep a...

21trucker, are you tuned or stock? I'm gde tuned and I can usually get between 28-31 mpg with pioneer in Ontario also (31 would be pure highway driving, mostly flat ground). Drops down to 24-26mpg if it's mostly city driving. I'm not sure about winter as I just got the GDE tune in May.

Interesting, I never heard of them. I was looking at their website, I don't see anything about Ecodiesel tuning? Only the cummings 6.7L https://www.darknight.ca/ They are pricy eh.

A tune can't stop the leak you have... Most tunes will shut off the EGR so that you're not dumping SOOT into your intakes, but it is my understanding that if you do have an EGR cooler leak, the tune (that shuts of EGR) is required just to install the kit, but a tune alone won't stop the leak...
