EDIT: I'M CONFUSED, IT'S A 5TH GEN FORUM, YOU TITLE IT "NEW 1500 LIMITED" AND YOU ASK ABOUT A 2012 TRUCK????
I was talking about the new Gen of ED, Not the old one.

Member "VernDiesel" got well over 300,000 miles on his original Ecodiesel engine, and last I heard his truck had something like 600,000 miles overall (not sure about the 600 k miles). Go read all of VernDiesel's posts, you'll learn a TON about how to maintain an Ecodiesel.
The early version of this motor in the 4th Gen Rams did not have a very good track record. However, the engines were redesigned for the 5th Gens, and so far, seem to have much better reliability (although, it is still too early to tell for long-term reliability).
Just stick the recommended maintenance schedule. There’s a whole sub-forum for the EcoDiesel…I’d recommend taking a look in there and reading some of the threads.

I have the current setup, 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 Gen 3 in a 2021 Limited Off-Road Group. I love it…
