    Ram engine failure after settlement update

    Why did the system NOT throw any codes, it has a thermo sensor just before the EGR valve? IMO the only way for the returning gases to have burned a hole in the plenum is long running idle time and valve stuck open, that just does not seem to be the case in the OP post. How the Dealer comes up...

    How many miles on your ecodiesel and have you had any problems?

    Its My understanding its Mix in other words 2 ERG coolers and inlets to plenum...The exiting one with the additional Post DPF EGR. Cat Tried this, When the DPF is in Active Regen the ECM Shuts the Post ERG down and it runs the existing or main EGR, the ECM manages both when in passive...

    It just happened to me - 2016 Eco Diesel burst into flames

    Good luck on that group effort, Many Eco owners are blind to the facts, 1000s of owners believe that 100K miles mean its a good engine LOL. Heck Modern day diesels should go minimum 200K miles with just routine maintenance.

    It just happened to me - 2016 Eco Diesel burst into flames

    I forecasted the 3.0 would have EPA problems back in Later 2015, I mentioned the Lube spec Lube MS11106 was not adequate Mid 2015, I claimed the Plenum /EGR was poorly designed and will cause problems in Long term ownership in DD use. Very few 3.0s survive pass 150K miles in DD use without...

    Anyone had their ecodiesel catch on fire

    If this speculation is correct, Than every ED has the potential to catch on fire, because they all have the same wiring. Back in 1996 We purchase new Ford F-250 ,it had a cabin Fire and melted the entire Dash, it was towed to Minor Ford in New Brighton MN, Ford replace the F-250 no questions...
