Vern uses His ED in commercial use....In HWY use the 3.0 hangs in with the best....1st its less stress on rotating mass, 2nd The OEM programing targets conditional use defeat. One of the reasons the 3.0 does well for longevity, in addition Vern is GDE tuned. I just bump into another owner and...
I would wait until the legal controversies are settle, If that makes NO difference and warranty is NO issue ASAP. Why are you even considering Molesting the Power plant ? Simple maintenance like foaming the EGR/Plenum at 25K Miles Service will likely yield years of great service. regardless of...
The failure rate continues to raise ,even after 14 months of NO production..Its the highest ratio failure rate ( rotating mass Diesel ) I've seen or in my life and career. IMO its QC and the only per-warning is OAs, I consider OAs mandatory on any 3.0 VM product. Its Hero -Zero Status.
Its unlikely the report is correct.. The DOJ and the EPA have NEVER allowed backwards legality This problem goes way Back into the Nineties , Here's and article for the Los Angles lies (Before they became they became morally bankrupt) I only use it to provide the date 1998, since than these...
O.... that happens on my IE at some forums, What happen was , I went to KY 2323 miles for a truck Pull and when I got back I pulled a OA and the wear-tri-metals were 280/303/190 So I lifted the cab and pulled the motor , and found 2 under size bearings. and the poor TQ.
FCA will NOT be allowed to molest the Power plant , In Like manner Ford did to the 6.0 or the Ram 2007.5-12 6.7 Cummins. My 2013 Cummins Was getting the Mandatory T05, the Tech replaced the entire SCR form T.O.P to T.P.... FCA Instructions call for the Ammonia module removal and cut the Harness...

When My sample of High sodium was provided FCA was willing to replace the Oil Exchanger, I waited until the next sample was done and the sodium drop to below normal, So you can Have a fluke Sample ,That's why trends need to be establish. It still has the OEM exchanger.
Justlucky do OAs to ease the worry, Now you must establish trends so it may take some time but its worth the effort and the Cost.
The civil lawsuit No thanks , I will wait on the DOJ outcome, Yes FCA has agreed to take Back My ED on terms .In all Fairness I will wait if FCA wins I will Keep...
Why are millions of other power plants form several other Power plant manufactures with Many different series and displacement NOT having the failure Rate the VM 3.0. on 5/40W? Claiming the oil is the problem? really FCA .Are owners really that Naïve to believe that. What evidence does FCA...
More FCA / Deception Blame oil.... Hmmm Why are millions of other motors that have use 5/40 for billions of miles for decades NOT failing....When we build pulling motors we machine the tolerances to 20/50 or 50w whatever the customer prefers. The tolerance form 5/30 -5/40w .001 +/- 1-2 To my...
Yep... I would PO the POPE if He claims to represent God He had better be doing/saying God's will supported by Facts found in the scriptures. He can rumble all day long on Man Stuff or acts. Rumor has it FCA going to force load Dealerships on the ED If / when they are let out of the parking...
