Roland I agree their out there, but the OP is thinking of buying used, Do you not agree its best to buy the Eco 3.0 with the worst case scenario in mind? So You have the Cash to repair if needed, the seller just going to tell the buyer back clouds never happen. This is the same statement I...

Naa Brady, I don't know of any 3.0 OEM 2014-16 OEM that's been trouble free, I do believe their out there, but its not the Norm, its the exception. I will ligthen up when Fiat puts and Honorable DSL power plant in the 1500. Yep don't sacrifice your Family for profession... I did and I'm om 3rd...

Online not even close to the problems related to the quagmire the 3.0 has created.... Now Brady I agree it needs missing parts, and a big part missing is its illegal. If you consider $4 Billion plus in loses on only 110K vehicles means your blind. Lets see Ford retooled and upgraded its entire...

NO.....In long term ownership its risky. That being said they do well in HWY use. Its not the engine I recommended to be your 1st DSL, its made overseas and its likely to be out of production soon. Need more details on its use City/HWY. Has the truck been upgraded to less parts ?

What do you mean won't shift right, need more details, knob,gears,etc.

Get Alfa-OBD for code clearing, SFK seem liked By many, GDE does offer CAA tunes, Dave in the end you will be spending about $1-3K in repairs, I am also Banned from that same forum, Its what I consider an Honor.

Yep ,but what about the 2019 MPG? Good/Bad/ or ugly.

Dman , This forum has sections for gas, Just keep your membership and report in that forum, The mileage is surprisingly good? for 5.7.

Unless it has maintenance Records its risky, at that mileage its going to need some repairs, in addition to the possibility of major failure. Now that being said $17K No, Your looking at 2-3K in maintenance and the possibility of $8k in motor replacement. Now make sure you have the funds for...

Bill and Kristi, The VM3.0 is your problem, I dumped that VM 3.0 and Purchased Ram Limited 2019 with 5.7, the Mileage is great the ride and comfort is 2nd to None... A good part of Why the 3.0VM continues to have major failure, Many owners are just blind to the facts that it fails prematurely...

Why would you install the kit. You cannot (Should not) extend the Service intervals, and that 1st time that any dealership see that bypass your engine warranty will be terminated. Re-designed? Weaknesses were NOT removed in the 2020. Is this your 1st DSL.

You need to call Me on this...again something is missing, and key strokes take way to long to figure it out. 763-228-7121 Todd.

Something missing Here?

The 2020 just is not selling, and the 2020 is still manufactured in Cento... MX, verified the same QC in 2020... Very few pervious 3.0 owners are willing to Trade to 2020. On Edit Most dealers stock is 100 Gas to 1 DSL 1500 2020. 7 6.7 Cummins to 1 6.4 3500, 5 6.7 Cummins to 5 6.4 2500.

GDE, WOW you got that right....why in the heck is Fiat still prostituting's itself with VM 3.0 is beyond hideous. They could have retooled VM R&D another power plant for what 500 million. Fait has the resources to correct this and regain the 1/2 Ton market ...I only have one word for it Fiats...

It seems they already have https://www.vmmotori.it/en/

MX, I now support missing parts upgrade... So true on giving the motor a fighting chance...If VM controls the QC it would be a power plant worthy of My support. I just don't see how VM going do do this W/O FPT intervention.

O I need to add, I owned 2015 for 4.2 Years, My maintenances was Stellar, Yet at 44K miles it needed New Intake/EGR, it was sooted up bad. I just check the record on the 2015, it just had the Tone ring and turbo replaced, at 54K miles.

I have over 40 years of experience in combustion engine, both Gas and DSL, I left gas decades ago and focus on DSL. 3.0VM (Motori) is a rats nest at best, its surround by QC and designed flaws....Also if you do a search you will find My posting on the 3.0 back in 2015 all care true, the...

Unless its used for HWY, its only time before it sucks up your wallet. 2020 has technology that was dropped by most Power plant Makers. Now change out to missing parts will be a big plus, The problem is you have 2 EGRs to cap plus the DPF routing... and sensors My Guess $$$$$
