    Ever seen a "good" carfax that still made you worry?

    Buy the reports yourself and have them reimburse/comp you. You can also have them put clean title and no accidents on a "we owe" so it's an actual contract.

    Gde tune and warranty question

    Window tint on the front windshield and getting water/soap down there has been known to brick PCM's and require replacement. I'm not advocating playing games, if you tune the truck you know what you are getting into and the "cost". There's a difference between running a hot tune and blowing...

    @ramcares really cares?

    If you have any warranty at all ( you most likely have powertrain ), you can lemon law it. Also all those "couldn't duplicate visits" stop your clock and count towards your 3 visits for same problem. If the dealership wants to be lazy or avoid the problem, great, they will make it easy for you...

    Gde tune and warranty question

    If odd though that if you pull the fuse for the dash cluster the mileage doesn't go up in either. But the rotations and rpm counts go up.

    Renewable Diesel Fuel #2

    That's all fine and dandy, are they paying for repairs or buying you an engine or fuel system if it causes a problem? You may be able to prove detrimental reliance and an implied warranty if they keep making claims like that in public and in writing.

    Gde tune and warranty question

    They can't just blanket cancel your warranty. What they do is set a flag on your car when your computer has certain values changed that are different from what they should be. That flag means to look further into the issue to see if there's something that can be used to deny warranty. If you've...

    Truck won't start, just cranks and spits and sputters sometimes

    Check grounds. Find the fuse box under the hood, open it and make sure all the relays, the black square things, in there are pressed down firmly. I'll guarantee you a few are loose. Check the nuts on all the wires going out and make sure all of those are tight as well. If there's still nothing...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Its right on the front of the engine, upper right side, follow the thin metal pipes that are the high pressure fuel rails.. Engine shouldn't need to be pulled, but they are gonna have to take a LOT off to get to it.

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    The best part is there's still no approved fix, or any fix at all yet.

    AC Outlets wired incorrectly ?

    Use a multimeter on continuity/ohm mode, set it to beep and make sure if you touch leads it beeps for continuity. Put one lead in the ground plug and touch the other to the frame where there is bare metal. It should beep.

    Any high mileage diesels, how are they holding up?

    I've never seen the glowplugs light on my EcoD. I also extremely rarely use them on my Tractor ( deere 4105 with a 300cx loader ). In 10 years, I've probably pushed the ignition in for them 3 times. In Florida, it's never cold here, usually hot and humid as hell.

    Help please

    This may be stupid, but are you sure you are in hands free mode and not on just bluetooth, but using the phone in speaker? I've done it and sometime the truck does it without prompting to go to handsfree even though its connected. especially after an update in 2020 sometime. There was also a...

    Any high mileage diesels, how are they holding up?

    The dpf slowly fills with unburnable ash. Once it passes a threshold where a regen won't reduce soot levels it needs to be replaced. It wouldn't surprise me on these trucks if the computer decided to brick the truck for you like it will if you run out of DEF.

    Any high mileage diesels, how are they holding up?

    Yeah and they aren't really designed to be serviceable either. On a semi or larger truck it's a serviceable canister you can pop in and out in minutes. It's an engine out/cab off thing on these trucks.

    Wiper Blade Options

    PIAA silicone blades. Aquapel. It's permanent rainx, you just need to clean the everloving fark out of the windshield and other glass before you apply it. Apply it in the shade when it's cool, not during the day. Put it on, and use clean paper towels and buff it off, and keep going until it's...
