    High speed fan came on, terrible mpg, high trans temp

    Drove back from our cabin yesterday with a small utility trailer and snowmobile. I've done that trip with bigger loads tons of times. I noticed my mpg was horrible (15.6). Then when I got home and shut the truck off the high speed fan came on. Even in summer when doing that same trip it never...

    Service interval after fuel pump recall

    I got a little 20 some page pamphlet with the recall from my dealer. It's listed in there. I'll see if I can find the pic and snap a pic.

    Service interval after fuel pump recall

    There's 21 pages on the other one, so I didn't want it to get lost. I just had the recall done today as thr dealer just got parts in. Anyone read the info that came with this? They now "require" fuel filter changed every 10k miles instead of the 20k. I'm a bit pissed about that. Looks like a...

    Winter front poor design

    The manual says when under 20 F degrees. And we had Temps sustained with windchill -20 to -30 for a week so I put it on. Not to mention my fuel economy has been much better with regulating the temp it seems. I paid for the additional package, I figured I would use it.

    Winter front poor design

    With the limiteds, you have to cut off the only mechanical part that really holds it in (velcro loop) on the bottom, you just stuff it between the grille and bumper. My slowly works its way out after just a few days. Terrible design. Any thoughts or insight? Different brand to use?

    Cold weather killing mpg?

    First diesel, first winter with it. Doing the exact same 3 hour trip to my cabin, I have since dropped 6+ Mpg. I've reset the average counter to disregard idle warm up times. I know it's not related, but it's strange this all came about right after my first oil change. (Dealer does) My battery...

    News on a tune?

    Wrong. The handheld is to load the Trans tune. Gde said at least 4 years if ever for a handheld unit. You need a spare pcm to swap back if you want

    Gde tune and warranty question

    The mileage isn't stored in the ecm. So odometer doesn't change. It's also not aftermarket. I have 2 oem ecm's

    Gde tune and warranty question

    I agree with their statement. That little tidbit about non powertrain visit made me hesitant

    Gde tune and warranty question

    Foe those of you with gde tune, have you gone in for warranty work even with a stock ecm swapped back? Here's what my dealer said. I'm I'm pretty good with them due to having worked foe the group. I don't want to void the warranty on a brand new expensive truck on a light tune. It's not like...

    Pcm cloning and ram recording it...

    It's a gde tune. It's not really outside their parameters. It's not a delete of any system. My dealer won't brick me or screw me out of it. No different than a level kit. It's not going to hurt anything but they will do what they can to shaft you. I worked at a dealer (chevy) I know the game

    Pcm cloning and ram recording it...

    I need to get my spare pcm programmed before sending out to tune. The dealership said that fca/ram watches and keeps record of it. Has anyone ran into this? I'm at 6k miles and have 100k of warranty because of ecodiesel. Any concern?

    P206d after filling def at truck stop

    If anyone is curious or has similar problems, it appears it was over full. I didn't top the tank off. I stopped when it clicked. When I went to siphon fluid out, (removed disconnect under truck to tank) as soon as I put the hose in the tank, def sprayed everywhere. I removed maybe half a...

    P206d after filling def at truck stop

    First time adding def. 3900 miles. (Dealer filled when bought) it was down to 1/4 on the gauge. As I was filling with diesel I figured I'd add def. I heard truck stops are the best option because it rotates out. After 15 miles and two key cycles of the the same day, check engine light on. I...

    Limiteds with 35??? Do you lose brake assist?

    Nope. Surprisingly it was most accurate at 2650 mm. Even though it technically should be 2790. Everything works great
