Yeah I got a Gen 3 in my '21 Limited Off-Road Group. Love it.
Did you get a tune for your '21? If not, you may want to investigate if you are looking to keep the truck long term.
In the meantime, there are several things you can do manage risk with this motor:
1- Get under the hood and remove ALL of the SDF (slow death foam) that covers both sides of the motor. This is not difficult, and can be a little time consuming, but you will be glad you did. This foam's only function is to silence the motor, but the trade off is tremendous heat soak on vital electrical connections and sensitive lines/hoses, as well as elevated fire risk
2- Remove the heavy steel cover and SDF from the high pressure fuel pump on the front of the motor. The purpose of these is the same as the SDF covering the valve covers and the consequences are also the same. Do you want super hot fuel or cooler fuel going into the motor?
3- Remove the thick intake cover with the Ecodiesel badges. Again, another "silencer" that causes heat build up above the intake and around the turbo. This just pops off of rubber studs and brackets. No tools required.
4- Investigate Sofa King tune options. The GDE tunes are all compliant now but I'm not sure if Sofa King has worked aroud the EPA. The transmission tunes are game changers, and if you tow anything, the engine braking is a spectacular feature. The other nice feature of the tunes is they actually prompt you when the motor initiates a regen. On stock EDs, the regen is "supposed" to happen in the background, but this is not always the case and can cause expensive particulate filter problems.
5- Speaking of particulate filters and DEF, during warm months use a 2:1 or 1.5:1 ratio of distilled water to DEF. Using straight urea DEF eventually rots out the lines and system. Costy repairs... In cold months go back to straight DEF if you're in the north or 1:1 if your in a warmer area.
6- Register on Ecodieselram.com and look up a guy that goes by
TCDiesel. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the ED and diesels in general as well as the politics around Chrysler/FIAT. He can help you navigate issues you may encounter with your ED. For example, I met him on the site shortly after buying my truck. The first thing he had me do is remove the intake line on my ED to check for sooting. Of course, as he predicted, the intake tube itself as well as the plenum inside the intake was completely sooted and covered in greasy oil. He instructed me to take pictures of both and escalate the issue to the service manager at the dealership I purchased the truck. After a brief conversation with the SM and discussion of the pictures, the dealership agreed to replace my intake manifold at their cost as TC predicted. This is after they had already replaced all of my injectors due to chronic "service electronic throttle control" errors that they couldn't fix. TC is a great dude and has helped a ton of guys on the site with their trucks.
7- Buy an OBD scanner so you can clear codes without having the down time and cost of going to the dealer. Your truck is still likely under warranty, but the inconvenience of going to the dealership is justification enough.
As I mentioned in my first post, the ED concept is awesome, and the performance you can get out of these little motors from a mpg and towing perspective is phenomenal. However, Chrysler/FIAT continues to use the Italian motor that is overengineered with tons of unaddressed issues. If they stick with the ED, I wouldn't be surprised to see a completely new ED motor in these trucks in the near future. Best of luck to you!
