- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 พ.ค. 2018
- This common problems are based on my own experience with this engine.
No all CUMMINS ISX engines are going to present all this problems but at least they are going to have one of them.
This common problems are going to be similar all CUMMINS ISX engines from 2008 and up and all manufacturs: Freightliner Kenworth Volvo Peterbilt international, etc,..
Cummins ISX engines from 2016 and up are more reliable than older Cummins ISX engines.

Thanks bro. This worked for me. U called out everything I've had problems with! Crazy
Thanks so much for the video Francisco they are all wAys so helpful,
So thankful for you to take the time to make these videos.
Thank you for doing this video... I have just bought a 1013 t660 with one of these in it... Ill be looking at all these things.
man... I wish I seen this video along time ago. Very helpful
Very knowledgeable and very helpful. Thanks
Good video.
Thank you for the knowledge.
You are awesome man!! Thank you so much
It is a very interesting advises you mention. Thanks. I have a casacadia 2013 with a cummins isx 450 hp. It has 500 k miles o it. It allready fail the EGR valve. But general speaking I'm feal fine with it. As maintenance what you suggests.
Had 2 Freightliners (02-04)with Detroit engine with over million miles and no mayor engine issues at all, then I decided to trying 2011 Kenworth with Cummins ISX (568k miles) so far oil cooler was gone ($2500 repair) few months after bumm head gasket gone ($5,130 repair) and all made by friends local luckily NOT over the road thanks God!
My recommendation.... stay away of those reds, unless N14 old school Cummins, I’m trying to swap a 12.7L 60 series Detroit on my kenworth so dumping ISX to junkyard where is right place for them to be...lol
Thanks for the video 👍
Hi Edwin, what was the symptoms of the head gasket and the oil cooler ? I have high pressure on my reservoir and it overflows i change the air compressor and it still doing it
@@fernandocontreras4784 i think symtptoms of a fail head gasket is coolant in the oil, possible overheat, and usuallly when oil cooler goes bad it starts to leak oil in the coolant system, you will notice oil in the coolant reservoir.
@@brkbrk5205 Always thot a failed head gasket 'chirps' or shows leakage on the block. If coolant is in the oil that possibly the liners 'O' rings. High pressure in your coolant reservoir can be head gasket failing due to liner dropping.
Thanks for the video, I have a 2011 and i didnt know why the pressure was pushing back from oil cap and dip stick.
Also found that EGR plugging causes a lot of the grief, up to, and most especially, engine failure. Evidently annual cleaning of the system prevents most of it. What they sort of gloss over, if they tell you at all. This is for more than Cummins, a friend is going through this with 2 Mack engines right now.
Cheers
This was absolutely a very excellent presentation.... Great...great job.
Keep up to great work on the videos
Good video, keep up the good work... Thanks bro
Thanks for the video very informative I've heard alot of bad information on the isx engines since I'm looking forward on purchasing my first truck no wonder I've seen a lot of cheap trucks on the market most of them have the ISX engines and they are 2015 and below models muchas gracias 👍 great videos great content very informative...
Thanks for the info 👍🏻👏🏻
Francisco knows his shit! Thank you for the video.
Mis respetos carnal, muy buena actitud compartiendo informacion, Dios te bendiga!
I will be buying a truck soon thanks for the advice really appreciate it
Thanks man keep it up!
If you could do a more in depth video on the symptoms of these problems that would help me. I did know about the EGR cooler failure and heard it was an 80% failure rate within 280k miles but some of these other problems like the fuel pump, I would not know how to diagnose. Appreciate the video
I drove one 5 years. I didn't put a bunch of miles but never had any problems. It was bad ass engine. Lots of power no problem
Jimmy Herring I’m looking at one with 190k how many miles did you do on yours if you don’t mind me asking?
Thanks Francisco I'm buying a 2017 prostar with cummins isx15 428k miles. The engine runs smooth and the engine oil is even clean/clear
Try to look for Detroit engine 60 either freightliner or kenworth...
Pro star are questionable...
They all have problems and sadly the epa keeps making them worse :(

Great video, thanks for advice brother keep it up 👍
Brother you the mannn thanks for you video save me a lot money one again thanks
Estaría padrisimo que lo hicieras en español, siempre veo tus vídeos y siempre aprendo algo nuevo
Saludos desde Aguascalientes mexico
Pero Francisco suena más como si fuera hablando en ruso
I have same truck like in your video a 2016 Pete 579 and at 200k miles already replaced turbo actuator... my mechanic told me those engine from 2011 to 2015 are very problematic and really expensive to fix them because it has a very complicated systems, like camshaft...
I had a Cummins ISX, blew #4 rod through the block just after 800k miles. The Pete in my pic... did a 3406E swap... couldn’t be happier

Good
2005 volvo with isx 1.6 million miles overhaul around 1150000 running no leaks no issues never let me stranded onthe side of the road
Great video bro
Thanks Francisco. I would like to recommend Baldwin Crank case filter # CV15000 over the other filters available. It appears that this filter manages better the crankcase pressure over the other designs available.
Thank you Francisco for the information
Muy informativo. Muchas gracias.
Great video brother im ready to buy a Volvo with the isx
Great info
Good advice thanks
I like your video, Francisco. I have had two Kenworth with the ISX15 engine and haven’t have this issues you mentioned yet. On the first one, I put almost 500,000 miles till I got involved in an accident. The second one, is a 2015 and this one I got it used with 474k miles, now almost 500Kband. I problem at all. I personally like Cummins no matter what, they are, as you said, strong and reliable. I like it. Keep on doing the good work, blessings.
Ps. Where is your location. I go 48 states and I might need your services, you never know. Thanks.
Great. Video brother I am a journey man heavy equipment mechanic. With seven years of experience and is looking to upgrade like your videos keep. It coming learning a lot God. Bless you
Great video
Thanks......couse.l like the cumins motor...
They are prone to front cover oil leaks and rear flywheel housing leaks. Both are very expensive to repair.
Good music selections!
THANKS FOR YOUR BLOGS
Where is ur adrees
good video bro.
Thank you
Your the man
Hola
Francisco apenas empecé a ver tus vídeos y son muy buenos, saves quiero una recomencion me das
I’m bout to buy a 2012 and seen this video
Where is your shop at to take a look at it
on my dd15 engine I had the air compressor failure that caused blow by to come from the crank case vent tube on the engine, it looked like i had a engine problem but it was a compressor problem where part of the air being produced from the compressor was going passed the compressor piston into the crankcase of the engine, i new i had a compressor problem due to it being slow to build air but i didnt know that it would pump air into the crankcase of the engine. I put a new compressor on and I had no more blow by from the crankcase vent tube.
Buen video mr si tienes change as alguno parecido pero para un isx 400hp 2007
Good video
Hey good info, I got the high oil pressure issue with my 1mil 2012 kw with 2010 isx15 it don't burn any oil I do change oil once a month
Francisco, I have question, when you say that cummins 2016 year and up is better, do you mean truck is 2016 and up or we have to look at date which is on engine cover? Bcs ussualy if truck is 2016y, on engine says 2015.
Thank you
Great video what are your thoughts on a 2009 isx
saludos fransisco ..podrias hacerlo en espanol..gracias..
Bad ass mechanic knows his stuff
Great video So what do you recommend to buy all this engines has multiple problems?
Buenas. Me gustan todos tu video.
Como es de bueno el 2009 isx 15 con 425 hp. Gracias
Gracias por el tutorial pienso que el EGR COOLER se me comenzó a dañar. Puedo correr hasta poder llegar a mi terminal siempre y no le falte coolant ?
Hello Fransisco , i had the main ,rods and bearings. The mechanic said that one of the liner has a tiny leak , what can I add to help slow down the leàk to be able to save for repairs
How to fix a Cummins ISX15 CM2250: Basically convert it to a CM2350. How? Replace all pistons an liners with the APR pistons and liners to eliminate the horribly honed Chinese liners and carbon scraping issues. Install the steel plunger upgrade into the fuel pump, it's very easy, get rid of the ceramic plungers. Have the head resurfaced and all valves re-sealed with updated seals. Replace the oil pump. Replace the oil filter bypass valve with the updated valve which is less prone to sticking open. Replace the oil cooler. Always pressure test the EGR cooler before assembly. Now you've fixed the most problematic issues in that engine. These problems are more specific to the CM2250. The next best fix is to get a Detroit. The EGR is the primary killer to the ISX engine, it is what creates the carbon issues. Also liners in the CM2250 were cast in China then sent to two locations in the US for honing. One of those locations used three stone hones and caused oblong surfaces, these liners will cause piston/ring failure. It''s a 50/50 chance cm2250 liners went though this honing process.
Dragon steel what's the cost to do everything you mentioned to convert to CM2350
15,000😂
How about the cylinder head and valves??? Does apr brand make brand new cylinder head or reman?
@@StickNclutch APR is a type put out by cummins vs a brand.
Mauricio está muy bueno el vídeo , pero seria bueno que lo saques en español también 👏🏼👏🏼
Aprende ingles
Aaahhhhh huevo
Soy de la Huasteca, Potosina,,,Teneek, Espanol, Ingles , Japanes, No es impossible,,, dedicale tiempo,,, muy buen video Sr. Mauricio,,
Que sensores necesitó cambiar antes queden problemas tengo un 2017 kw T680 con 160000 gracias per su ayuda muy buenos videos!!!!!
Antonio Arroyo eliminale el mugrero d las emisiones y levantale el caballaje a 550 y te quitas de andar batallando despues
Francisco got it right on the oil consumption. Im adding a gallon every 2 weeks and thought it was due to pushing the engine to it's peak daily.
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a method to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I would love any tips you can give me
@Ryker Lennox Instablaster ;)
@Milan Melvin Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Milan Melvin It worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
@Ryker Lennox no problem =)
Francisco if you can help me giving me some advice. I am getting ready to buy my first truck and I am still not sure which engines are better a Cummins or a Detroit . Let me know please
What would you recommend
ISX or DD15 and what year?
I appreciate the help
Many people are having #6 cylinder,valve problems in a Cummin's ISX engine. Have you seen that problem? can you explain it? Like you said, most problems in ISX15 engines are found in engines from 2007 to 2015, like the #6 valve malfunction. thank you.
Do you have any video how to replace the fuel pump on isx cummins engine for 2012?
that is a mechanic job trust me, the pump weights 70-80 pounds itself lol
That's a great name for those big red boat anchors "Cummins ISX Common problems"
Hey Francisco, I have a 2009 Cummins isx cm871
When I am at idle I can rev the motor and it will run perfect in idle.
But if I put it in gear and go to take off, the engine sputters really bad and blows out a lot of black smoke. Do you know what it could be?
Everything I’ve seen so far says the EGR could be plugged? IMAP sensor and delta p sensor could be plugged? Do you think that’s correct?
2014 and 600k miles running strong here!!! Preventive maintenance and Change wearable components, this engine will last
300k the engine breaks? 50k miles???? 25k-30k engine oil replacement? Take this from an expert in oils..no matter what oil you use after 10-12k miles it will loose all its properties. All oil manufacturers tell u stories but won the you All Of Them are using same base oil. 80% of oil composition is the same between all brands, the rest 20 % are patent formulas that make their oil different than others .Advice to all owners :No matter what oil u use dont run over 12k miles no matter what oil. Dont be cheap in saving money on oil...thats the life of the engine...how many oil changes do you need to skip to save 20k dollars on an overhaul? Be cheap on different parts but not on oil 12k miles top...no matter what oil u use
So you expect me to get an oil change every 3 weeks??
In Europe, new Mercedes Actros has oil change in 120 000km! That's factory recomendation! Older Mb Actros mp2 has oil change in 80 000km!
@@sergeantspeed5941 pretty much i change it 1 month
LMAO you can use rotella T6 well past 12k miles. Changing you oil filter is more key than the oil @ 12k or so. You can send samples of your oil to a lab and you can tell when you should change your oil, along with many other things the sample will tell you. Some can go 50k miles with just changing filters. many factors play into why/when you should change your oil. I think I'd stick with science over some random word.
@@pokerman9108 ima tell you like Roger Mayweather told people who knew nothing about boxing and use his line "you obviously know nothing about trucks and main bearings" when u just replace the oil filter you are leaving all that contaminated oil at the oil pan which is going to contaminate that new oil filter as soon as you crank up and oil pressure starts to build. Don't be a lazy mechanic with a buttcrack showing just flush all that old oil and filter with new fresh oil and filter. And don't forget your davco fuel and secondary filters
So on Cummins isx label should say way make in 2016 ?
I’m currently looking at 2014 freightliner with a isx 550k miles would you recommend something like it or stay away from it ?
Exelente explicación haser ca de este motor hermano mire una pregunta que motor me recomienda ponerle a un pro star 2012 trae un max force 13 que ya camino muchas gracias espero su respuesta
Un Cummins isx estaria bien
Buenas tardes, en donde esta su taller?
Does this affect isx15 manufactured in 11/15 ? I have a 2016 cascadia with isx 400st
What is the compression ratio on CNG cummins?
Please make a video of isbe 5.9 euro 6 engine
You should do the same video on Volvo d13 and dd15
I have for DD15 engine, here is the link
th-cam.com/video/7096dlIadSM/w-d-xo.html
But I don't have for D13 engine, yet.
Do I need to chenge crank case filter I never done it in my truck
What the solution for a bolt gauge surging from 13.5 to 15.5 back and forth and then it'll quit and start back shifting through gears and out of nowhere it will surge again, the batteries are 2 days new checked cables alternator any suggestions
Great video. Where did you get that fuel pump housing. My pump went out. I thought i would rebuild head and get a new housing.
I have a isx 15 485 and I bought it bc I thought it had 500k but I plugged in the computer and it showed 800k is that bc they swapped out the computer ? Should I be worried it fells good looks good I’ve only cleaned the dpf and done the all maintenance like oil fuel air and crank case filters have been changed should I look for something else ?
Hi Mr. Anaya, just an question, do you have any idea about, what is valve adjustament lash , and timing gear gap for this Cummins isx after 2012 single cam?. Thank you .Anticipated
It should have that info in the valve cover of the engine?
Does it still have it?
At first I start thinking on switching over a Cummins but with all that kind of failure í wont....🤔🤔🤔😁😁😁
do you recommend using the crank case filter that it looks like a filter but nothing in it ?
Yes, that one is better.
Fransico you are dead on amigo! I blew high pressure fuel pump with the ceramic ports all the shavings went into the block had to do complete out of frame!! My question is now I'm getting sut on the air to air tube boots I just replaced turbo and vgt 2 months ago can you help me figure out what's going on now? Thanks amigo
Vagos is no more. Varrio los Aztecas for life!!!!!!!!!!!
Cual es la presión del motor, mi aguja me muestra 223 a 225 corriendo y parado 200 mi motor es un dd15 Detroit, te agradezco su ayuda tengo la amber light on, saludos Francisco.
Great video Francisco and tnx,i got some questions for you,have kenworth 2013 cummings isx and problem is my oil temp unusual high 230 on flat goes to 250 f up hill,btw weather temp is 180,do you have any ides?tnx
Replace the oil thermostat.
It goes in the oil cooler, the front area. You have to remove the AC and alternator bracket to get access to it.
Hi Francisco its me again,i did replaced oil cooler,termostat, oil cooler sensor and radiator, so i got some good things better,so right now my oil temp dont go over 230,its constantly 225 and temperature is still 180,so im srill concern about to hihg oil temp,any idea what else i should replace?? Im thinking about wather pump sensor and wather pump?? Tnx a lot
,can you put a filter frompum to oil line

Can I bring my truck to you?
my 2015 cummins isx15 engine through a rod at 283k miles with no alerts on the dash at all and oil pressure read normal until i suddenly lost power on the highway...anyway now cummins is asking me why i ran the motor at 2750 rpm's for 30 seconds according to ecm ....of course my response was...i didnt the gauge only goes to 2500 rpm's and also the motor has a rev limiter...my question is....is it possible to run that motor at those rpm's?
