Welcome.. congrats on the new EcoDiesel. What diesels did you have before?

My thoughts are this: If you're towing within the manufactures limits on a stock truck then you shouldn't have to back off or worry about something going wrong / overheating. The truck is engineered to handle that per Ram, that's what your paying for. Once you add a tune or change something...

Simply because new modern diesels are equipped with DPFs. Technically, it could clog if it idled for a LONG period of time (I don't know the specifics of how long it would take). But, sitting at idle is just wasting fuel.. therefore you economy will take a hit as your not moving, but burning...

Welcome back.. Winter fuel will generally give you a 2-3 mpg drop. On top of the habits of letting the truck warm up and driving conditions really hurt the economy on these trucks. It's very possible it needs a regen. Maybe put some diesel fuel treatment in it as well since its been sitting...

Well the truck isn't going to run properly if you remove the dpf and then not tune it.

Welcome Matt. You've found the right place. Be sure to look around !

I wouldn't really be worried. Your going to have some bad apples in the tree. Most are here to report problems and not say how much they love their EcoDiesel.. That's how Web forums work. :D

Ouch. Glad you had warranty!

Welcome to the site !

I know this. Make sure you find someone that knows what they are doing. I've read many nitemares around people that got a junk one or a bad install and it caused more problems than it was worth...

Welcome allen! Glad to have you here. Post any questions you may have !

Welcome! We're glad to have you here.

Welcome to the forum Brett. This is the first I've heard of this problem. It could just be back luck, rather than a problem for them all. Did they say what failed?

direct them here! I'd like to hear about them. Not good news for us.. It's hard to believe FCA doesn't have a fix yet!

That's not good. So if it's the same oil cooler they are just band aiding the problem..

So you never used a tuner to delete the emissions, you just cut off the exhaust? Also, removing the DPF will make the most difference in sound as it catches all the noise.

I asked in your introduction post how many miles, which I see here. Glad warranty is in place.. did they give you a estimated time on replacement, or details on what happen?

2nd post today with someone reporting to have a blown motor. Sorry to hear.. any details yet on what happen?

Ouch.. sorry to hear that @D. Bloomfield Any explanation yet on what happen? How many miles are on your truck?
