2018 EcoDiesel EGR

[SOMD_ECO]

34K miles and this is what my coolant level looks like. EGR on backorder for 90 days now. Maybe time to join a class action? Why harass me with emails about needing a recall FCA if I try to get the recall done and you don’t provide the part?

Just delete egr and be done with it.

Can you elaborate on how this is accomplished?

Thanks

Order the kit from https://hddieselsupply.ca/c-1334979...eco-diesel-dodge-ram-1500-3-0l-2014-2019.html

I'm mulling doing a full delete, especially since we are considering buying a trailer.

Thank you. It appears the 1334979 kit for the mechanical change over also requires the 170201 for the software side of the change. Is this correct?

I finally got the EGR recall done. No noticeable difference in the rig afterwards. I immediately put the GDE tune back on, hard to drive without it. I'll report any adverse issues.

I'm sure you've already looked in to this but I'd ask the vendor directly.

You had an extra controller that you put on to take your truck in for the recall and then added the GDE afterward?

They provide a tool to flash the ECM/TCM. I flashed the stock programming and when I got it back I put the GDE programming back on. They include instructions.
