I have just finished replacing the lovely engineered turbo coolant line. I did not have any codes or a check engine light before the repair. I did take the intake manifold off and such to perform the repair. I think I may have forgotten to plug i sensor but I looked online and couldn’t find much...
My issue was a mix of an exhaust leak, restrictive air filter, and a few minor charge pipe leaks. I have sense fixed all but the air filter and with my tests with a less restrictive filter it runs like a dream.
For anybody curious on what AFE power said:
I suggested that they might add a aftermarket solution for the plastic pipe that bridges from the turbo to the lower hot side pipe as there were many people searching for a solution. Who knows maybe they’ll come out with one.
That’s awfully convenient. I attempted to seal the leak temporarily. I’m going to reach out to AFE and see if I can have something custom ordered if not I’ll see if a local fabricator can make something.
I looked at my charge piping and this (picture below) is the only one I could see had a leak. It’s the plastic pipe that runs from the turbo flange to the AFE pipe (as pictured). I’m curious if you or anybody else knows of a non plastic one I could purchase I would rather have metal over plastic...
I’m not sure if I mentioned it but I have a AFE hot side charge pipe unless you’re meaning the junk plastic piece that connects to the turbo or the fitting on my intercooler
Before I had it tuned it was thrown into limp mode and had the under boost code, service electronic throttle, and the various emissions codes. I thought they were all emissions related but I am second guessing that now. The only parts changed on the engine is a AFE hot side charge pipe, K&N air...
I have assumed a boost leak would be constant no matter the boost pressure? My issue only occurs under higher boost which is why I thought maybe my waste gate was opening but I could be wrong.
I have just recently had my 2017 eco diesel tuned and deleted from Mr.tunning out of Canada. The tune itself works great but once I get into the throttle a sort of whooshing noise can be heard and the truck loses all boost and most of its power. If you let off the throttle until the whooshing...
I have a 2017 ecodiesel once it reaches about 2,000 RPM and anything above it sounds kind of like it’s backfiring and lots of black smoke pours out the tailpipe. I seen on my EzLynk it shuts the turbo veins down and throws an under boost code but Once the codes are cleared and the veins are back...
