truck is tuned with a delete now... also have straight piped and a banks intake installed.. For this reason, If I ever replace the "tuning" it will be with one I have control over options with an interface like most of the other diesels have been using for years. If I did a lot of highway...

I have had 2 sets of the 4 ply g2 terra grapplers now... breifly I had 10 ply tires and did not like the ride or mpg. the G2s are quiet and have a smooth passenger tire like ride. I have not had highway tires on my truck to compare. the 4 ply tires generally get better mpg than 10 ply due to...

Mine was a 93 jeep wrangler with a 2.5L and manual 5 speed. I loved it.. my paychecks as a teen went toward bolt ons. but like most jeeps it rusted out quickly. eventually the frame got too bad for my uncle to weld reinforcements too and I gave it away after 13 years with less than 80k on the...

They replaced the whole engine instead of just the heads? glow plug failure at 21,000 miles seems crazy, so much for thinking they were just freezing from rust in the threads as many do.

I use the bluetooth version of the elm327.

LOL I was listening to the Carshield infomercial when I was posting in this thread yesterday and for the first time in my life I actually considered it! My truck is not stock so they most certianly would use that as an out from paying if I had an issue.

The main bearings are wider along with the crank journals

It is strange that they are still taking orders on the original engines if they are not backordered due to covid issues (Which would be the logical reason) even the tires I ordered in october spent almost 3 months on backorder. its a big cause and effect mess with manufacturer disruptions and...

I for one wouldnt want the old generation ecodiesel replacement. why replace a bad design with the same bad design vs the newer generation where at least there were improvements?

So ironically the new 34" 4ply Nitto G2s arrived yesterday and I just got them mounted. Theres a huge difference in ride quality and the mileage is better, it's still too early to get actual figures on how much the mileage has been effected but I have noticed the truck holds higher gears a bit...

Are you trucks both stock as far as height and tire size? do you have heavy aggressive 10 ply tires vs the lighter 4 ply tires the trucks were rated and came with? I drove my truck around for just over 2 months after I bought it without modifying the previous owners modifications. He had...

wasnt this an issue chevy had a while back also?

My tires are expected to ship in the next day or 2!! ... only took four months. In the mean time my overall mileage have dropped to 15.9mpg some of this has to be the winter blend. hopefully I see an increase with the new tires or I will be going to smaller tires as this kind of mileage hit is...

lawyer likely gets a percentage of the settlement , possibly on a case by case number and knows what buttons to push to get action.

2nd and third gen ecodiesels. Not to be confused with the fact that a 2018 is a 4th generation ram and 2020 (non classic model) is a 5th gen..

I love my 2015 but realistically the best design is a 2020 or newer where I recently learned they changed the main bearing design to reduce the likelihood of the common engine failure in the older Gen EcoDiesel

Well? did you buy it?

Its nuts that we even entertain buying something else to drive to prevent an engine failure. Its like buying suede furniture and covering it in plastic IMO

From what I gather, with it being such a big concern, I would think if there was an option many would take it for piece of mind and the shop would do quite well. Like you yourself said so many have a weird love hate relationship with the ecodiesel that they would jump at the opportunity.

whats really needed is a qualified shop that will rebuild and address the manufacturing weaknesses, offering an aftermarket replacement thats improved on vs OEM.
