    If You have Witech 2.0 https://submgr.am.fcawitech.com/login.htm with Tech Account https://www.techauthority.com/ you have the same ability as Dealer. My point being the Tech may have inadvertently flash the PCM.

    No, if the tech just updated the module with the lighting bolt, I almost made the mistake Myself.

    Fuel rail pressure sensor change

    Its very common and generally unrelated to the sensor. That code is generally related to leaky PRVs or high return rate of the injectors Dirty FCA or voltage issues to electronic PRV,FCA.

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    The problem is modules need to communicate, If you update the TCM or the ABS and its missing info needed from other modules it may trigger codes or messages. Smarty a few years back learn this the costly way, Tune included new updates to the ECM, but not the ICM, all Smarty owners lost their...

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    Yes, you can opt out of the action, (Class Action) Just that Action. The Truck must be COC approved AEM, that's why " you would still be able to obtain an Approved Emissions Modification and Extended Warranty free of charge" is My understanding.

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    The dealer on the AEM is required by Law to update the Vehicle, its been decided upon in Fed Court, they have to log in Dealer connect https://app.n.fcawitech.com/auth/login.html . (If they plug into the OBD) It will look like this.

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    IC-65 is that 2 x 4? CC,RC,EC,-SB,LB. If the dealer plugged into the OBD port my guess it was flashed, The Tech may have inadvertently flash the ECM/PCM, unlikely but possible.

    Buy eco diesel or not

    You would have to call them. I never trusted My 3.0 to do mountains and Wagon pulling in the Rookies, I use My Cummins for that. I never pulled much with My 3.0, The one time I scaled at 13,100 at the transfer station and the truck just did NOT like it. Other do it , but its not for Me...

    Buy eco diesel or not

    Yep it can, so that would put 4x4 CC at around 11,500 Gross. I certainly would not recommended speeds of 65MPH+ at night. So being aware of the power unit capacity and handling is better than any spec chart.

    Fuel rail pressure sensor change

    That sensor $105.00, It will NOT stop the code, its more likely the electronic pressure relief, (Front driver side rail) Good move ,keep that darn foam off. The sensor is either on or off, what exact code are you getting.

    Buy eco diesel or not

    Missing parts are related to NO emissions, DEF.SCR,EGR,DPF. I DON'T CARE WHAT THE MAX RATINGS AT RAMTRUCKS IS, or what other say, the 1500s become dangerous at GVW above 12K LBS, Sure you can legally do it, and I have but if you need to do emergency stop or evasive action the truck just is NOT...

    Buy eco diesel or not

    There is NO way to make any 3.0 Bullet proof. You are also at MAX CAP with 5500lbs tow , that will put you at 11.5-12K Buy 3/4 ton. If you do buy 3.0VM you will need to upgraded to missing parts, although GDE claims their new COC tune missing parts will not be necessary.

    Fuel rail pressure sensor change

    No on the tools, Rail pressure sensor failure is equal to Hurricane in MN, The only way for the RPS to fail is voltage spike or you physically hit it, , water. Water is the more frequent reasons why they fail, its bury under foam if the foam is still installed water on any ED is unlikely. The...

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    65 Seems to be the sweet spot for 3.0 3.92, after that the MPG takes V. My driving city Mixed never reached 20MPG, it was as low as 17 in winter and 18-19.1 Summer. I always HC....

    Miles per gallon, MPG, Mileage

    John, that's My 2015 Mileage OEM also, 1 time I drove from Mason City IA to ,Blaine MN and I hit 30.2 MPG driving 65mph, It was the only time I made 30 MPG in 4,25 Year of Ownership. I use to give the Oscar to the 3.0 for MPG, Not anymore the AEM has cost 1-2 MPG and 2019+ Gas engines/truck have...

    Buying used with know EGR Value issues

    If the price can overcome the risk, So that would mean it would have to be a steal of a deal. OK here's what I would consider a steal 30K miles loaded Laramie in mint condition not a nickel above $25,000.00. US What's the relationship the EGR has to do with over heating? IMO this engine has...

    Payload increase 2018 EcoDiesel Laramie

    Why not just get the 2500 with 8ft bed and be done with it. I could only imagine the body roll that any in bed camper would produce. Yesterday AT Foss RD and old HWY 8 their was a 1500 Ram that was Pulling loaded single axle trailer overloaded with dirt, it blew rider tire, the Driver was not...

    misfires on new 2020 ecodiesel

    Bergie , I tip my hat to the Dealer, I just cannot support this engine made By VM (3.0) I heard the same comments in 2015. What's going to happen when VM stops production of the 2020 version? and it seems VM is getting fitted for Industrial and Marine engines? FPT. https://www.vmmotori.it/en/...
