    I have a 2012 LML Duramax with 322,000 miles. I did the CP3 conversion at about 175,000. Installed a FASS 165 lift pump. I deleted it and has a CAI, programmer(towing tune) and 5 inch turbo back exhaust. I also changed over to Catepillar oil filter, fuel filter and water separator. This thing runs like a champ, no issues. It's my daily driver.

    Have a 2016 Duramax with 41,000 miles. Use it mostly to pull our 5th wheel. I procrastinated for several years about the CP3 conversion. I did put an Airdog lift pump on approx. 1 1/2 years ago and always run additive. I have followed all the bad reports about the CP4 and quite frankly it really concerned me. When my extended warranty expired I decided to bite the bullet and do the conversion. Being a retired aircraft mechanic I felt that even though I had never done this conversion before that I would give it a go. In July of 2023 I completed the job using and S&S CP3 kit. This was their latest version with a new block for the 9th injector and a port for the temp. sensor. Per kit instructions I did a regen on the DPF system and so far I have put around 1000 miles and pulled our 5th wheel with no issues. I did this for peace of mind as I dreaded the thought of a complete failure on the road especially pulling the trailer.

    2013 Stock with 465,876 with CP4 still going strong. Change your filters and use a fuel additive. Have done this day one and no issues. Will go to CP3 when the motor goes for a rebuild shortly.

    Great video. I have 2019 Ram. Bone stock. CP4 blew up at 7000 miles before recall. And again at 46k miles when CP3 conversion was covered by the recall. From what I can see in the paper work it was a $19k repair. Crossing my fingers it doesn’t happen again or at least not before I can sell the POS.

    I needed a new water pump. I have had my cp3 conversion sitting in my office for other 3 years. Since I needed to replace my water pump I decided to go ahead and do my conversion..... 330k miles, original stock cp4 pump, original stock injectors, installed my lift pump about 100k ago. Had zero metal shavings but did have pieces of rubber and plastic on the screen. Blows my mind it was still running without an obvious issue.

      I'm at about 230k with mine and no issues (yet). While I know it does get blown out of proportion, it's just that thing that lingers in the back of your mind... when is it gonna fail? Did you use lubricity additive and/or live in a biodiesel state?

    I have a 2016 LML Duramax with 356,000 miles on it. Use truck for my job as an RV transporter. At 334,000 miles the original cp4 pump failed, but did not grenade. Had a new cp4 pump put in at a GM dealership and fuel lines and injectors were not changed as there was no metal that made it to them. Cost was $4k parts and labor. 20k miles later new CP4 pump failed and this time did grenade. Entire fuel system has to be changed out along with injectors. Was told by GM that they would only warranty pump and not entire fuel system. Cost out of pocket now is going to be $7k. A word of advice for anyone with a 2010 thru 2016, do a cp3 conversion now rather than later. Pay the couple grand now rather than $10k-$15k that most places will charge. I will be doing the complete contamination repair and also a cp3 conversion. Eventually that cp4 will fail and when it does you could be stranded on the side of the road pulling a 42 foot park model 4 hours from home as I was.

    2014. 102,000 and I just did the CP3 Conversion. Among some other fun stuff...Finally. Runs much better now! I don't know why I waited so long. Mine was strictly preventative maintenance since I just hit 100,000 miles. Now a couple weeks prior, a relative of my wife had his CP4 on his 2016 self destruct. So, that was the final wake up call and my wife really started worrying so we pulled the trigger.

  • @jasonlipka
    @jasonlipka 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think that one thing people need to consider is that the CP4 issues are bit overblown because of the COST of the failure. You'll hear numbers anywhere from $5k to $15k. I remember reading an article where they had data to show that the actual number of CP4 failures were less than 2%. Now, that's a lot higher than CP3's have, but it's not like you have a 50/50 or even 1 in 5 chance of experiencing a CP4 failure. It is far from the "ticking time bomb" that many people make it out to be in their clickbait videos.
    If you run an additive (I, too, like hot shot secret EDT or EDTDWAG for winter), odds are you'll never have a problem. And that's really all there is to it. In Europe and Canada, where they don't have Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD), CP4 failures are non-existent. Thus, it stands to reason that as long as you make sure the fuel in your truck has as much lubricity as Canadian fuel (and most additives far exceed that), then you are not likely to experience a failure.
    There are other benefits, as this video points out, especially if you're doing big mods and need the added capacity a CP3 can provide.

      Lots of CP4 failures in Canada , we run Ultra low sulfur diesel here too, had my 2015 lose the first one at 70,000 km / 40,000 miles on warranty, then lost that one with 120,000 km / 75,000 miles with regular filter changes at 10,000 kms/ 6000 miles. Went to a CP3 conversion, a full delete and tuned for heavy pulling , and has been trouble free since,

    • @jasonlipka
      @jasonlipka 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@BladePro2021 Thank you for the insight. I was unaware that Canada was also ULSD. This prompted me to do some more research and it seems the main difference between the US and Canada is that Canada isn't really enforcing the emissions laws in most parts of the country. Thus, although it is technically "illegal" in Canada to delete your diesel, there isn't really widespread enforcement. This is much like the US prior to ~2018. It has always been illegal to delete your diesel here, but it wasn't until the EPA started cracking down in 2018 that there were any real consequences to do it. That's when vendors started getting fined/shut down for selling delete parts and tuning, so now nobody will touch it.
      All that said, your post drives home the point that the problem isn't necessarily with the CP4 pump itself, it's the ULSD fuel. A good lubricity additive should keep your CP4 reliable. A CP3 conversion does tend to avoid these issues entirely, but you can buy a whole lot of additive for what a CP3 conversion costs, especially if you are going to pay someone to do it. Peace of mind has a value all its own that is difficult to quantify.
      By no means am I attempting to dissuade people from doing a CP3 conversion (there are other benefits), I'm just merely attempting to tone down the rhetoric that every CP4 is a ticking time bomb that is going to get you sooner rather than later.
      CP4 disaster prevention kits are another option worthy of consideration that are much lower cost and much easier to install. They're not 100% effective, but they are close to it. They do nothing to prevent your CP4 from failing, but they do minimize the system damage (and thus cost) if you do experience a failure. I would think a disaster prevention kit with a lubricity additive would offer great value for those that are concerned. Most additives have other benefits anyways.
      ETA - My LML is a 2012 with 190k miles on it. No problems with my CP4. Until a couple years ago, I was unaware of the issues with the CP4's so I would guess I've only been running additive for a couple years now.

      @@jasonlipka I agree, and yes Canada hasnt been over zealous on enforcing the law. You might also be right on the CP4 , my issue is on the manufacture and GM not advising the customer about the known issues and offering an information package in the warranty booklet on ways to help the CP4 last . A bit of info from GM would have saved me thousands of dollars. No where do they mention changing filters way earlier then the change fuel filter range on the dash, nothing about lubricant additives , even after changing one out on warranty they said nothing to help prevent another failure. .

    • @jasonlipka
      @jasonlipka 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hard to know. You need to get out a scan tool and monitor actual versus commanded fuel rail pressure. Is the truck tuned? Big power?
      It's also possible that the fuel filter on the side of the engine needs changed. That can cause low fuel rail pressure. Rule of thumb is change filters every 20k. A single bad load of fuel can necessitate a filter change if it's really dirty.
      Try the easy stuff first before you assume it's a failing CP4.
