Excelente video , aprendo mucho con usted ya que tengo dos camiones un freightliner cascadia dd15 2012 y recientemente un mack cxu 2015 y pues como la economía no anda muy buena que digamos pues nos toca aprender un poquito de todo y personas como usted son una bendición para nosotros los dueños de camiones. Gracias por sus consejos y que dios lo bendiga!!!
I like your videos. Helpful to me, owner operator trying to do my own repair and maintenance. I bought a used Schneider 2012 Freightliner Columbia glider. 2002 Series 60. Had 511,000 mi. at purchase. Dropped #5 exhaust valve at 588,000 mi. Performed low budget repair. Fixed valve, one liner&piston looked rough not#5. Only top of piston beat up a little. Crazy thing....could not find piece of valve at disassembly!! Replaced #6 because liner had unusual wear marks around circumference, like coolant got in and layed there waiting repair. 837,000 on engine now, but uses 4 gallons oil in 15,000 mi maintenance cycle. Mostly when oil is getting old. Mostly heavy flatbed loads in northeast region. Stock 430 horsepower
@@СтепанБандера-ы8у Schneider knows how to get the most for their money. How much to budget for maintenance and when to sell because problems will arise due to minimal care. They replace a truck after approximately 5 yrs/500,000 miles. Power and drivetrain longevity is not highest concern.
Schneider doesn't change oil for 30k miles. They add oil Delvac at PM service and change oil filter b4 30k miles. I think the overhead should of been done right after you got the truck.
@@nikolairomanov3160 I agree. My bad because of inexperience. Must do overhead after purchase to know starting out with good valve adjustment. Simple and cheap....good insurance.
I notice that oil in the liner is your diagnosis due to big ring gaps. Of the pistons that I can see, The rings are not clocked properly also. I have heard some say it does not matter but I think this is a good example that is DOES matter.

FIVE GALLONS OF OIL in less than 1000 miles. 2011 cascadia DD15 125. Bought truck in Feb ‘22. Seller drove it from Houston to San Antonio. Had oil changed and other items replaced. I bought it. My first weekend running drove 260 miles Saturday night and then drove 590 miles Sunday. Last 30 miles to destination check engine, stop engine and oil light came. No oil on dipstick. Added 22 quarts to get out to full line. FIVE GALLONS! Drove home to SA. Added TWO GALLONS. Replaced oil pump, oil sensor. Ran it to Oklahoma. On the way back same lights came on. Added just over gallon and got truck back. On arrival, added 4 gallons to get to full line. Figuring it’s burning nearly a gallon every 100 miles. ONE HUNDRED. Runs smooth, no other warnings. No leaks. No oil in fuel tanks. No oil in turbo. No oil in coolant. No smoking exhaust. No oil in air tanks.
@@ReptoOwnsYou I’m running it. Can’t afford to even check to verify what the problem is. Recent well site I was on was 18 miles from plant to well, getting about 1-2 loads a day. Added about 1.5 gallons a day. Don’t have a choice. No one I’ve spoken with has a clue.
Francisco!!! Thanks. Mine has been burning about 5 gallons every 1k but I decided to keep topping up till it hits 1.6M kms then rebuild it. It's currently at 1.45M kms been burning oil since 860k
I have a DD-15 motor as well The mileage on my truck is 1,119,868 mi My motor was built at 9 00,000 mi I don't hear no ticking sounds any of that and as far as the RPMs go I drive this truck at 15 RPM I never keep it low RPM high idle
Great video. U explain the problem but u didn't explain why is happening because of what.? What did went wrong to begin with? Pls explain the root of cause
Francisco.. donde tienes tu taller? Tengo un problema acerca del d.e.f. low pressure... y no me pueden encontrar el problema... me gustaría que me pudieras ayudar.
Hi, Amaya. I like you explanation of this problem. Can it happen on gas engines too? I have my pick up truck GMC Sierra 3500, and looks transmission problem. It was running normal with 2500RPM, but recently jumping to 3500 RPMs and looks like torque converter or gear is missing in transmission. Is anybody here have experienced this problem, Please? Every advise is highly appreciated.
Francisco I have a question? I just had my oil cooler replaced because it was leaking for a long time literally a week ago and now I'm burning a gallon of oil every thousand miles but I just had this motor rebuilt a year ago I'm sorry a year and 6 months ago could it be the motor or something else if it was a turbo how would I know?
Brother can u help please my 2013 cascadia have white smoke when it’s getting cold , if I drive 35 mph it does kind a farting out white smoke and it does only if it’s getting cold outside if it’s warm it doesn’t do it it runs fine????
I have Freightliner Century 2009 with 830k millages and my truck burn about 1gallon for 200millages. I don't want to rebuilt my engine right now, any help to save oil?
Yo tengo un Detroit 60 series y el turbo se me rompió y 4 semanas después le cambié el aceite que eso fue ayer sábado y encontré pedazo de aluminio no se si son cantos del turbo o cantos de los pistones como puede ayudarme
Oil is cheaper than to do overhaul. Change oil often (15k miles), synthetic 25k and use Lucas. Freightliner says keep running 45k, I say don't do it. Those pistons are cooked.
@@olegd268 are you in Canada? In the Summer add Lucas in the Winter when gets below 10°C just oil. I change oil myself I add half a gallon with new oil and other half I add after but I keep Lucas mixed with oil when I have to add. It works for me what you do is up to you.
@@nikolairomanov3160 i replace oil myself as well. Was always a bit afraid to get it too thick by adding lucas. In winter I usually mix 50/50 0w40 and 15w40. For easier starts when up north. But never added Lucas. Had overhead done about 500k km ago . Having 1.5 million km now. DD15 2015. Still very strong pressure over 50 psi. Rolled new bearings in on crankshaft with overhead and new pump/ pickup tube. Will definitely add this change after trip. Yha in Canada. But always running down US south and back.
I have c15 acert but for ur dd15 I belive synthetic is recommended. If it works for you .... Lucas doesn't make thinker it sticks to the metal protects cold crank. The metal not dry on cold start.
Can this happen when your RPM is too high? After I had my engine rebuilt I noticed my RPM would go all the way up to 20 is this another problem that could cause it? Where is my oil going I don't have no dripage like I said the oil cooler was replaced a week ago and now all of a sudden I'm eating oil just out of nowhere literally after a 3,000 mi trip I started eating oil.
Francisco,I hope you read and answer this: how can we prevent OR know when the engine is close to catastrophic fail? my engine was working like a dream,smooth and quiet,no oil consumption,no leaks of any kind,even with over 1mill miles. But last week,BOOM! the coolant went into the engine,it damaged the camshaft as well,I stopped the engine inmediatly,but the damage was done. How can we know before this happens? my truck had a lot of new parts,New SCR box,new radiator,new tires,new ac system..so my loss is double,the engine costs from 34k to 44k for an overhaul and 50k for a new engine,I am junking it at this point,but it was a delight not having payments and what I thought was a good engine. Answer if you can,please.
You might see coolant in your oil pan. As coolant is heavier than oil so it will stay in bottom which might give you an early start. Or you can check the coolant reservoir level. If the coolant is not leaking outside then it’s going in. Could be the cups, EGR or just a oil cooler.
@@supreetdhillon9665 Well,I was hoping a better signal/warning than that,I did my PTI that day in the morning,all fluids were fine and upto level,no strange sounds of any kind,no smoking of any kind either,but in the evening I was pulling a heavy load up i 77 in WV, and just like that,in less than 30 seconds,I had just stopped for fuel 1 hr ago,and nothing unusual,when the mountains got heavier that s when it happened. R.I.P. my truck,it was a good one. Thanks for the info.
@@odestryjam2231 Most used ones cone with over 300k miles at astronomical prices,some want the core or they charge 2k if no core. In my position is best to buy a fairly new truck,which I did,I just want the knowledge for future reference.
1million miles is time for new truck. That supposed to be sign that truck is at the end of its lifespan. If it drove a million miles it should make enough money to buy new truck.
My dd15 reach 1M miles today. It running like new with an excellent oil pressure. My only concern is oil consumption. It’s about 2.5 to 3 gallons in 10K miles. But I noticed the consumption began after the first 5 or 6k miles running. Qué me aconsejas? Hacer el overhaul o esperar un mayor consumo?
I wouldn t recommend it,there is a reason why they only warranty an overhaul for a yr,my mechanic would not do a second overhaul unless the owner signs that he is aware of premature or early fail,I wouldn t do it,but if I had the money and the truck is in good shape,I would consider a new engine.
The engine speed problem is particularly so with the automatics. The driver can still drop down a gear but 90% of the time don’t, and just sit there with the pedal to the floor saying this truck is slow and has no power.
Knowledge is power 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Your problem is a idiots who trashed your truck before you and a Schneider why was saving every penny to keep it instead of maintaining your truck.

That’s caused by the owners, they don’t have a good maintenance program!
They are owners that own trucks and don’t know anything about trucks.

You might see coolant in your oil pan. As coolant is heavier than oil so it will stay in bottom which might give you an early start. Or you can check the coolant reservoir level. If the coolant is not leaking outside then it’s going in. Could be the cups, EGR or just a oil cooler.

Francisco my truck is losing oil not going to diesel tank or coolant what can it be
Maybe, turbo or internal engine problem
The only way to detect that problem is to open up the motor thankyou for replying 🙏

How much blow bye did that engine have?
👌 great video
I have lots of blow by, with high oil consumption..so it can't be the turbo leaking right??
I have same problem did you find the answer?

Is 1 gallon of oil every 15000 miles bad ?
One gallon every 15,000 is normal. No problem.
800,000 1.5 gallon every 13,000 miles. 2009 DD15
