Yep...and than they will try and tired you out.. Do you have any record of early service... Yes, you have to be extremely diligent with this engine. It's well known of its rotating mass failures over the last 8 9 years....

You can prove the early service? Don't you have some type of CC statement? Did you do LOF yourself?

Yep.. VM 3.0 has IMO the worst failure rate in the last 20+ years , I think it has now surpassed the Ford 6.0 failure ratio. That why You ALWAYS Register your vehicles at the official site and update your service records... If Dealership did the service, it should be record here...

WOW....I have to ask NO one at the Dealership made you Aware of this engine service requirements? Also what's the 2020 manual requirement on service?

Naaa, it's not a spun bearing...The VM 3.0 has such a horrible History on puking The Dealership just does not want to deal with it.. There's simple procedures to check Fuel system, intake, rotating mass, etc...It also could be as simple as a bad connection. IMO after you do get it running sell...

The material would have been found in the filter....Your magnets did nothing to stop the impending destruction, plus you continue to operate even after the factory warning became apparent, at this point wisdom would have dictated to investigate and check your Magnets. The best fix for VM 3.0 is...

We built several 3000+ HP motors in fact it was our Build (Long Block 6.7 Cummins that won the UC 2785 HP, stayed together the entire season We will be tearing it down next month) we've/I seen the damage Bed plates create over the decades. If you check my postings back in 2020 I forecasted the...

None of the attempts you mentioned 220 rocket would save the VM 3.0 destruction. I been promoting VM 3.0 is Hero - Zero Status... it simply too great of risk to own any VM 3.0.

The VM 3.0 has oil Switch, the Oil temperature sensor is live.

OA Trends are mandatory on VM 3.0. additional filtration may prolong rotating mass failure. When that bed plate starts to squirm around impending destruction follows IMO. Thier are three different size main bearings match to block , Crank , bed plates , this requires absolute precision spec's...

No offense but I have no desire to hear from the haters, what is your definition of a hater? OldManEco

1126 Your intake for NON-deleted motor is by far the cleanest at that mileage I've seen......

Thats not bad for 210K Miles..I would replace the intake and carry-on . You obliviously drive your 3.0 properly... Roll into -it, less soot created + HWY Miles.

It depends on the dealer, GO OUT is relative if the dealership declares it was contamination, you will be denied any type of compensation.
