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

    21000kms on my 2016 and noticed at -20c Temps and colder I would hear a slight occasional howl from what I thought was maybe a diff. Has dealer check it out and was told when I went back that my new transfer case was on order...really didn't expect that and I'm still using 4x4 with no issues...

    Engine Block Heater

    From what I was told all eco's have a block heater but depending on where it's purchased it won't always come with the block heater cord but you can get one at most auto part stores. I'm in northern ontario and get a lot of -30 and colder weather and barely ever plug mine in and have not had...

    it wasn't in tow/haul mode and hasn't happened again since. On the bad side my backup camera they changed is already doing the same thing, didn't last 24hrs.

    Transmission issue

    Never did it before and of course it stopped doing it the day before it went into the shop and hasn't done it since. Service advisor said that they had heard of complaints of "surging" when stopping but found it was because there are no baffles in the fuel tank causing the fuel to slosh around...

    EcoDiesel Tester got 33 MPG

    Just did my first trip with my 2016 with 3.92 gearing and running 60-65mph on a fairly hilly curvy highway and less than 300 miles on the truck and got 28mpg one way and 29mpg back and that also is at -12f with -20f windshield and some slush and snow on the road. I guess with a clean level road...

    2016 ram 1500 ed

    Ya, I don't think the new trucks being so computer precise would handle it. Mind you when I worked as an aircraft re-fueller whenever we got a bad load of jet fuel in they would usually send the truck to dump its load at a local truck stop where they would try to mix it 50/50 with diesel. jet...

    has anyone had the problem of exhaust fumes entering the cab of truck on 2014 ecodiesel

    Ive got 250km on my 2016 and am getting an occasional smell of what seems to be smoldering cardboard to the point it makes your eyes and nose burn. it only seems to do this once it builds to full temp which takes a bit when outside temps are -25 to 30c. Any ideas?? I keep wondering if they...

    New BFGoodrich KO2 tire

    I stand mistaken. checked with my tire guy and it was the KO's that I had not the KO2. He says the KO2's are much better. The post of watch the fine print didn't pertain to the KO2's in general, just a warning to watch when purchasing winter or all weather tires. I myself prefer to purchase...

    New BFGoodrich KO2 tire

    You have to watch the fine print on the all weather tires as well, while having the mountain and snow flake makes them snow rated and legal it does not make them ice rated. take for example the blizzak tires, they are a winter tire that is ice rated..but...fine print states that after 20% wear...

    New BFGoodrich KO2 tire

    Had them years ago and would never buy another set. they had good tread life and were quiet and generally had ok traction but found them terrible in mud and while good on snow or snow pack were skates on slush. I also had a lot of issues with debris being that in 4 tires I had accumulated...
