805 , is this DD use only?
I spoke to owner yesterday with 324K miles on all OEM, he drive 200-500 miles daily. They have recently spent $6000.00 in repairs.
Your situation confirms my hero zero status.
What I don't understand is how someone believes you can drive 300K+ miles without...
Motori & Fiat took a motor that was designed By GM/Motori 2005-06 for 3200LBS Euro caddy, the Motor never was intended to be used in 6200+ Pickups that are rated for 7K towing couple with DD use.
Fiat and Motori Max compacity was reached mid 2015 and yet those to bone head companies...
I do recognize the standard that the EPA has imposed as burdensome and NOT required or helping. Like NOx levels at near 0 100% of operation, or soot levels Near 0.
FCA not the problem its Fiat VM motori.
The problem with VM 3.0 AECD's are over engineered and under developed, Thiers's Millions of COC engine's over 500K miles with little to NO maintenance with AECD's fully intact, that get close to Non-commissioned engines MPG, The EPA is not the problem concerning the VM 3.0, its VM motori...
Bruno, Likely (Statements) created by the same source that keeps drinking the Kool-aid, they blame the failures on the same lame excuses.
Hmmm even VM has dropped its ad campaign, Ram was required to remove the ECO in front of Diesel for a valid reason , Nothing is Eco about VM's 3.0.
Please...
Its amazing How little PSI is need in those Bags to Support 1000LBS. IMO you will find 20PSI very Pleasing . The Additional LBS with very little stress added to the trailing arms lower bushings.
You Need to leave at least 5PSI in the bags at ALL times, even that psi is going to raise the vehicle .50-.75
Now that being said I would MAX my PSI at 20PSI. No way in Heck are those cam Bushing going to support the increase Pressure. WHY do 1/2 ton owners believe they have a pulling TRUCK is...
I've Arbitrated Many Insurance and MFG cases , IMO I would go with the single with both parties mutual agreement on the person or the wheel.
Over the years panel decisions Suck, generally favor emotional side of the matter. Gofish You agree?
The Rotating Mass failures (early) are related to QC, IMO the one's at 80K+ miles and later are related to Oil soot problems, Thier are 100+ of owners stating that the engine puke's shortly after lube service, This indicates some type of blockage that let's go and plugged lube journal(s)
IMO...
In my 40 Year Career Thier have only 2 Engines that needed to decommission AECDs to protect the Motor, the 6.0 Ford and 3.0 VM. Thier 100 of thousands of decommissioned vehicles for emission related failures. BIG difference.
Now to the decommissioned facts, I been posting this for Years long...
dkingpt, Many CKT sensors operations are by Hall effects with cog ring, Not/Nutso so with the 3.0VM its wheel with magnetic strip. The CKT was a problem before/during AEM. No doubt in My mind VM knew that the tone ring was the problem and negated to share that info with anyone ( another reason...
