Watching your vids while my trucks in getting the outlet nox sensor replaced an they’re going to work on the front brakes shakes the steering wheel like crazy when I press the brakes 👍
@@CaptnSyko expect to pay about 2.5 hrs to get this done. If you do plan on doing it your self make sure to replace the speed sensor on top. Easy insurance.
@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 I appreciate the response. I did replace the sensor, block port and all. Was going to do it myself but a southern tire mart knocked it in 45mins and charged .6. Keep up with the vids man. Lot of good info for us owner ops.
Thanks for reaching out. Very well could be the breather gasket. Got to wash it off and check to be sure. Or..if you have over 200k miles you might as well replace it before it get full and throws a code.
I’m getting ready to buy one now I’ll be following your steps it’s my first time changing one thanks a lot from the video. There was a part of your video went silent was that a bolt and nut you use to unscrew it?
Thanks for watching and reaching out. Yes I used a regular bolt and double nut it to get the fitting out. Much easier and much cheaper than buying a large Allen socket to fit in there. All about saving money and working with what I have.
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 Ook cool agree with you. I installed minds earlier today, Is this the only way to contact you if I have a question in the future?
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 hey I have a question I have a oil pan that crack and dripping oil but not much and cam housing the question is why my dipstick is always showing over full even if it’s for a day can you help me out?
Hello mister. I have truck freightliner cascadia dd15. The truck have 715000 miles. I change crankcase breather. It was leaking. But smoke come out from only from breather ? Please and advise for me Thanks and advance
If the breather is slightly smoking it’s fine as the crank case is venting. If it’s heavy smoke then you have a compression problem and may need a Eng rebuild soon.
I've noticed that the hose going into the block has a small leak. Should I just replace the whole crankcase or just the hose? My oil pan is leaking also not too bad. Would the crankcase failing cause that?
If you have over 500 k miles than definitely replace your crank case vent housing and fitting in the block. If under you can do just that hose or spend just a bit extra and do the whole thing. Good maintenance to get done. It also won’t cause ur oil pan to leak. But might leak around your pan causing it to look like your pan is leaking.
Thanks for reaching out. The force of the exhaust gas leaving the block causes the filter to spin than clean the slobber and send the remains to the pan. Only vapor should be leaving the filter, and if much oil comes out it’s time to change the housing.

Hello, enjoy your videos. I work in a fleet shop for a national company. Have changed a few of them for sure. Have you notice what mileage that you have been changing them.
Petroleum based retention conpound. This particular one is from grainier and it made by chemtool incorporated. Great to use So it won’t dry up hard on those orings.
Thanks for watching. You can expect by 500k Miles to replace this. Either by a check eng light or pushing oil. Makes since since there’s a lot of oil slobber that comes from the valve train down to this. Thanks for reaching out and stay safe out there.
I have a 2011 dd15 it has a metal pipe with a sensor. I went and got a replacement from Freightliner but it has a plastic pipe or tube. They are telling me it's the only one they carry for the dd15. It will not work with the metal tube on my engine the plastic tube doesn't come off. Any help or ideas on this ?? Thanks
Great question man. That is a problem with many older dd engines. I’ve also had that issue. I took the old one to the dealer and had them match it up with new style pieces that adapt to the new plastic lines. It was a pain. But best thing is to bring it in to a dealer and have them ask a tech if they need help because parts guys don’t always know it all. Good luck on the search and if you want to find out part numbers to help others that would be even better.
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 thanks for the quick reply Ya I know it's not correct but parts guy said that's the new version I can't remember the term they used the super seaded part I think. I have ran into this before with many other parts but they usually work and fit. I will have to go to the big dealer in Denver and figure it out and I will put part numbers along with a video on my channel. My metal tube bolts to the motor and won't even fit that rubber grommet you showed pulling out on your video
@@MakeMoneyTrucking unfortunately it was an early model DD and the more years that pass the more parts are going to be hard to get. As you can see With the crank case vent they tried to make a universal one and failed because some had bolted fittings in blocks and some didn’t. It will only be getting worse as they will be focusing resources on the 18 and up engines.
Great video! Do i have to replace the sensor itself if it doesn't throw a code? Im replacing the ventilator because mine looks oily and probably is the original one.
Great question and thanks for reaching out. Happy holidays by the way. If the sensor is not throwing any codes then go ahead and reuse the original one they rarely go out. The only problem we usually get is from the actual filter itself being clogged.
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 Thank you and happy holidays! Im replacing the turbo and i thought that now is the time to replace the crank case breather bacause i have so much room. Btw i think it will be great if you make a turbo replacement video for dd15 because there's only one on youtube and its in spanish. I wish you all the best for the new year!
Great question. You don’t have to worry about that because no it will not. But I would start looking around for signs of soot collection around the exh manifold, bellows after turbo , and exh clamps , basically anything on the p/s of your engine.
Great question, if the breather was plugged up than you would experience oil getting pushed out of the vent instead of it naturally being vapor. If you notice a lot of oil around it , it’s time to change it. Blow by is more of a cylinder problem.
So I have a very Nasty/nausea blow by smell that comes from this every time I’m in stop in go traffic an or use the jake brake. Didn’t start this till I took to freightliner to have my first pm service done 15k ever since the. I have this smell coming out. Still at 40k miles. Is this something that be the issue of what do you think it is?
I got a 2014 freight lighnet cascadia with DD15 engine i just replaced the crankcase oil seperator know how often doesvit need to b changed at? thnx. A.T.
Appreciate you reaching out man and watching along. These separators expect about 500,000 miles. After that they’re pretty slobbered up and will start pushing oil. And while you’re there don’t forget to replace the rpm sensor because It will go out.
Great question. The ccv is used to take any excessive pressure out of the block and separate gas from the oil. The filter inside actually spins and throws the oil back inside to the pan and vents fumes to the outside. Once you start getting excessive oil out of the ccv vent it’s time to replace the filter housing. Hope that clears some things up.
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 thank you so much!!! Does it always leak oil when it needs to be replaced? Or does it need to be replaced sometimes even without leaking oil?

And i dont feel any vaccum on oil cap and beneath crank case
Good job!. I'm having an issue on my volvo d13 , seems concept is the same.
Thank you
Hi, thank you for the video. Is it ok for a nea one to have some leak?
If it’s good it won’t leak. There will be minor signs of oil around that exhaust area but very minor. If it’s dripping than we got problems.
Appreciate your video brother! I’m doing mine to !!! Grate video . I hope in future you post some about dt12 transition and clutch how to check them
Cool thank you
If I changed the crankcase less than a year ago is it possible to replace the sensor only?
Absolutely, just may be a little hard to get on since that heat shield is in the way. But do-able.
Could this be part of a solution for code 102 18 air intake manifold pressure too low derate 25% ?
Great video sir, thank you for sharing.
Are crankcase breathers covered by Detroit Ew4 warranty?
Yea they are. Leaking and when there full.
