Everything Wrong with the 6.7L Cummins

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 พ.ค. 2022
- There is no denying that the 6.7L Cummins has been one of the most reliable engines on the diesel market since its release. There really aren't many problems with these engines and most of them go their entire life without experiencing any major failures.

I would love to see all 3 of the big 3's transmissions run down, and I'd like your opinion on who has, historically and currently, the best 2500-5500 diesel transmissions
What about the turbo and all the problems it has from the vnt nozzle cracking to self destruction? What about the oil cooler cracking? What about the China quality tensioner pulleys? What about the DEF freezing in the tank? What about the piss poor wiring harness on the engine and throughout the whole vehicle? What about the front and rear crank seals constantly leaking (front 3 times in 100,000)? I will never advise anyone to buy one that is not deleted before major engine damage occurs.
I eliminated every one of these problems, and it is a fucking beast now. Thank God I live in Florida.

My favorite thing about my 6.7 Cummins is the in line six configuration, it's so much easier to work on unlike the V8 configuration.
6 IN A ROW READY TO TOW BABAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lots of V8 diesels that work really hard too. Cummins make a lot of V8 as does Cat and Detroit. I can understand a straight engine is easier to work on and that it allows easier access to reach into. But there are plenty of V8 getting work done too.
@@ms.annthrope415 it's the difference between fixing it in your driveway vs paying a dealership to pull the cab on a v8 and do it
get a 7.3ps problem sloved, hell u can pull the heads with the motor in
@@clarkwilliams9967 You mean cab on?
As a Cummins guy I can honestly say that they haven't ever gave the public a trouble free engine. 12-24 valves had the killer dowel pin. The 24 valves had the 53 block and then the VP44 that Dodge sent out with a junk lift pump. Then we move to the 6.7 that at first only had one fuel filter and lots of folks had stuck injectors kill their engines. But wait there is more! They moved the grid heater to the intake plenum and over time the high amperage can burn a bolt off in the intake and it can be ingested into the engine. Head gaskts are another problem. What has happened is the engineers and bean counters have tried to make the engine cheaper. It's a shame really. Do you think that Cummins would supply a Ram spec 6.7 to run a stand by generator like the 5.9 would? I doubt it. Do I think Cummins is still superior? Yes. But these little things that can destroy an engine is ridiculous.
The bolt into the engine happened to me a few weeks ago (11-4-22) in my 2017 Ram 6.7. Completely destroyed the engine (they said) but it still ran. New engine $30k. Although because my warranty was only up by two months and 6k miles they are "helping". It will only cost me $3,000. But I will be renting a vehicle which will cost me a total of about $1,200 and I am with out my truck for a month. All in $4,200 to get my truck back. Here is a list of issues that cost me $$ and the amount I had to pay out of pocket. Water pump froze and destroyed the belt which broke other things ($1,200), Turbo actuator ($1000 put a new one on my self), Turbo ( no out of pocket, had 700 miles left on the warranty, but without the truck for a week, Bolt in the engine ($4,200 with out the truck for a month)... Still waiting for them to fix it. Now I get to wait for the other issues and pay more. Probably the last Ram I own.
@@tonyozanich3760 Man that really sucks. I'm glad they are helping you though. If Chevy had a solid front axle I would probably look at them. I would never buy a Ford with the CP4 injection pump. Anyways, sorry you had the trouble, if I can ask, how many miles on your Ram before it let go?
@@tonyozanich3760 honestly don’t expect 6.7 power stroke or newer durmax to be better. All these new trucks struggle with emissions so there’s not much you can do unless you delete it
@@tonyozanich3760 I had a 2020 Ram 2500 Cummins and it was a nightmare all Diesel Emission problems, they tired but just couldn't fix it!! it only had 34000 on it and the last 9 months I owned it I had it in the shop 3 months I traded it for a 2022 6.4 and am happy so far with it we will see.
@@Derek-pd4fc this is a known issue. Shame on you
Great video. Had a 01 2500 5.9 24v loved it. Installed a few upgrades, loved towing with it. Only issue was multiple lift pump changes. Never upgraded to Fass. Eventually bought 09 6.7 3500 been a great truck 178k miles. Tows our 3horse Lakota LQ without breaking a sweat. Cummins all the way.
id say almost all full size diesel engines would be pretty reliable if it werent for the epa
If it was not for globalist nonsense that has replaced North American sourced electronics and air line fittings with Chinese junk.
Older all mechanical diesels were some of the most trouble free engines ever made in history. It's such a shame those days are gone forever. They'll only get worse as time goes on and I bet in the soon future maybe 20-40 years diesels will no longer exist due to epa
@@ronnieswindski825 that’s what it looks like now, but once people see how unrealistic cobalt and lithium mining is, how logistically sound impossible hydrogen or electric is, then they will wake up and start making retrofit kits to make ICE engines hybrids
Just bought my first cummins and this video was very informative. Please do one on the transmission.
There's another problem I didn't hear mentioned hear; Over time, a bolt in the 2007-current stock RAM 6.7L Cummins grid heater deteriorates, falls into the intake runner, and makes its way to #6 cylinder. When this happens, untold damage happens potentially destroying the engine. Best case scenario, if you're lucky, the bolt can wedge in between the valve and seat. If that's all it is, then the worse possibility is replacing the head if it can't be repaired. Either way, you're talking a lot of money. Thank you for doing this video, it's loaded with great information. Keep that good stuff flowing...
Man it can be real hard to find issues when the issue is only ones in a while. It's so expensive to do anything. I have been working on one and it's getting the best of me for sure. I have other customers car also and this came in on hook so it's getting overwhelming. But the video was very helpful and I'm glad I found it. Thanks for putting that video together for us.
5.9 will always be my favorite over the 6.7! Both are excellent in the world of diesels
The 5.9 has the KDP, & the 6.7 has that little intake heater nut that can rattle loose & get in the motor.
What are some of the best years for the 5.9 and 6.7? I'm helping my dad look for a new truck. Thanks
@@ClearWater7.62 5.9 12v or the 5.9 common rail..
@@ClearWater7.62early 2004 5.9 no factory emissions not even Cat.converter and had the good CP 3 high pressure fuel pump.
Love Cummins and duramax got myself a 6.7 Cummins for towing but my personal daily is a lbz duramax both of those engines are monsters and super reliable
So the chevy cant handle real work?
@@jibrilthegreat35 it can i tow with it on occasion with a 40 foot gooseneck on it but it’s my baby I just want to daily it and keep it forever don’t get me wrong I love my Cummins it’s a workhorse just to different situations for both the Cummins I got first for my hotshot business that’s all there both Great trucks and can pull a crap ton just a preference and what you desire out of both trucks
@@DieselBodyEDC Fr lol ig he didn’t get the point of a work truck 😂😂
@@jibrilthegreat35 the big 3 Diesel engines all tow relatively similar. Gate keeping haters always hype up one brand or another. They are all good for towing and it all comes to personal preference
@@rock-uu7qr yeah but u never see anyone put a Duramax or power stroke into another truck, u see plenty of Cummins swaps though
“It also helps to drive the truck hard” 68RFE-😳
Yup G56. Yeah it has a single mass fly wheel now BUT I did get 189,000 on the factory clutch and dual mass flywheel.
@@darryladams519 that’s wicked impressive!
68 is actually a great trans at stock. Mine has performed flawless 178k
@@darryladams519 bought mine with 30k on it then at 33k I had to have it replaced. I guess the flywheel was in pieces? Btw, stay far away from Sheridan motors in Wyoming. They totally f•cked me over on that truck. Didn’t cover the clutch so I had to spend 2200 out of my pocket to have the southbend dual disc put in.
At 125k now, most of it with a truck camper and trailer in tow, no problems yet!
@@downbytheriver501 yeah I've heard some didn't last long at all. Luckily I'm still able to do all the work on my truck. I don't think the clutch is covered it falls under the same category as brakes do, serviceable items. Stupid but ........
Best thing I did to my 2017 ram 6.7 is delete every emission system and install a banks intake elbow (also the grid intake heater removed so the bolt can’t fall into the engine), tuned it for reliability as well as the 68rfe. Hands down has been very reliable and great mpg
How many MPG are you seeing ?
I love cummins engines, I drive a 2005 Dodge 2500 diesel and it is amazing. I work on 6.7's on Freightliner M2's and Yarddogs. The biggest problems I find are usually Egr Valve/Cooler related and dpf issues a lot on Yard trucks. VGT actuators, and scr's are also problematic. I have seen a couple engines need replaced or major work out of thousands that have gone through the shop. 6.7 engines are great, I believe them to be better than the Chevy or ford equivalent as the Cummins engine is used in a lot of applications. I still prefer a 5.9 common rail over anything though. Just my opinion.
The engines themselves are good. The emissions equipment sucks and is the source of most diesel owner's problems.
@@craighoffman6876 I agree. The new GHG 21 Detroit engines are junk. All because of the epa regulations.
I had a 5.9 and now 6.7. I love them both but the 6.7 is my favorite. I had issues with the injection pump on the 5.9.
25yr ASE. chevy guy.
Business owner.
I drive a 6.7 Cummins. No issues.
I have a '96 12V (original owner) and a 2022 3500 H.O. Ask me which one I like better. The new H.O. Cummins is a beast. ...but I do love the sound of my old 12 valve. Good video.
Very informative. First time seeing one of your videos. I have 2016 ram 2500 Cummins. Thanks for making the video
Great video! As a 6.7 owner I'd love to see a video on the transmission.
Which one?...I’ve got the Aisin bought new in ‘07 260k of heavy pulling zero problems.
@@mudslutmusic9052 I have a 2018 Ram 2500 with 150K... I've have speed sensor issues and shifting issues due to pressure switch failures. A poor seal on the tranny filter nearly caused catostrophic failure... fortunately I caught it in time but I'm sure I did the transmission zero favors. Transmission itself is fine... just the cheap FCA sources accessorie parts...
Another issue, at least that I’ve noticed on the school bus application of the 6.7L is the DEF system itself. A few failures I’ve seen are the DEF dosing unit and a few other components.
That’s why the 2011-2012 is the most wanted 6.7 Cummins because it’s pre def but has dpf
I worked for Chrysler for about 10 years and didn't see any head gasket failures. The CP4 pump did grenade a few fuel systems. The turbos use a sleeve that controls how much air goes around the vanes, the vanes themselves don't actually move. Only other issue ove seen that you didn't mention is the intake air heater grid bolt becoming loose and falling into the engine. Banks fixed that issue with their monster ram intake.
I have a pre internal EGR 5.9 common rail Cummins. 460k miles and the oil isn’t black as soon as you change it. If you can believe that! Amazing!
VP44 Injection pump?
I’ve found a good fuel additive also helps with more complete combustion therefore reducing soot. Archoil seems to work great for me but there are others that help too.
Thank you so much for the lecture. Awesome video
I love my 6.7 I love my 5.9 24v too. 6.7 tows way better but when I want that old farm tractor injection rattle on Sunday it’s also great.
Great video. Thank you for all the info. I am in the market precisely for a Ram 2500 with the 6.7 Cummins engine. Looking at a 2018 with 68k miles in very good shape.
I'll sell you mine.
The best thing about my 6.7 is its a CUMMINS !!!!!!! 6 IN A ROW READY TO TOW GANG WHERE MY BOYS AT
I would love to see a video on the 68rfe and upgrades you can do or good alternatives
I’m a dealer tech, the most seen common issues is emission. Egr failure and DPF clogging due to soot. Turbo actuator, and now the y78 recall on injection pumps, 19 and 20 year models only. This is the most common issue that I see in the northern part of Georgia.
Glad they reverted to the CP3 pump and recalled 2019-20 models to put the CP3 on.
I just get in it and goes! I’ve been getting in it since 2019, and it always just goes! It’s still a brand new unit!
5.9 will always be my favorite. 6.7 is still a sick engine but 5.9 for me
Our 6.7 has had over 400 thousand trouble free kms, so you must of had a lemming.
you provide valid points here although you were talking about the emissions side of the engine but also i think you missed out on the intake manifold issue of the heater grid on this line of diesel engine
Do the transmission video but not just with the newest generation but all the generations. I’m wanting a Cummins and have been researching for awhile. Would love to see a transmission video
I'd love to see a specific video on the transmission /overall power train for Ford and Dodge's recent offerings. From personal experience Allison transmissions normally outlast a Duramax before a rebuild and that's with heavy towing. Just the opposite of the old days with reliable 350s and 4L60e's regularly grenading.
Luv my 01 LB7 no smog or EGR Or DPF built profed luv the 6.7 Cummins too with a delete kit!
Good video, agree with pretty much everything said. Although I'm not so sure the head gasket issue is worth mentioning. It's not something I personally see a lot and I have run my 17 2500 and my current 21 3500 ho on the max tune pulling heavy and have not had a head gasket issue. I personally don't know any friends of mine or Neighbors that have had head gasket issues on a ram unless of course it was one with major bolt-ons pushing really big Power.
I looking at a 2018 Ram truck to buy. The info in this video is helpful to see problems that may appear in a used truck and perhaps the reason it was traded.
Bought a 2007.5(the first 6.7 with emissions as we know it) within 1000 miles all, I mean all emissions equip. Fell off and never had a problem. Still going strong 15 years later. Best mod was bypass oil filter. Love my stripped down 6.7.
Its crazy how nature does that
The only real problem with 6.7 is people who use it as a payment princess, the turbo will soot. If you buy one pull with it, that's what it's ment to do. I've owned all of them and they all have their own problems. Duramax and Navastsr have V8 which is a better gas configuration, inline 6 is a desirable deisel design.
I have a 2021 Ram 6.7 Cummins high output engine . I have had the truck in 22 many times with egr issues,fuel filter issues,battery replacement,now I have a coolant leak,ecm issues and can’t believe how much trouble I had with my truck!
Question, this same 6.7 liter Cummins is offered in motor homes, in a Super C motor home weighing around 30,000 lbs, will you have this issue or will the engine work more efficiently to disallow these issues?
Thanks for your video
Having the same issues with my ‘12 vw CJAA with the cold starts & burning more fuel in the winter. Injecting more fuel to heat up the exhaust & having a HARD knock. Just went to 5w40 oil for the winter. I’m not even 1000 miles with that oil. Going back to 15w40 asap due to the low sulfur washing the oil down.
Great job!
I run water and or methal injection on my 6.7, no build up what so ever, keeps the EGR and cooler clean all the time, never had a single issue with anything and on alcohol it makes more power super cheap. The factory should have gone to water injection, keeps cylinder temps down especially when towing.
No mention of grid heater bolts or on the 19+ which has Hydro lifters. At least in 22 we have CP3 back. My 6.7 was awesome but deleted since day 1.
Another problem ive came across on my personal truck os the grounding bolt for the grid heater. Mine was almost wore thru. If that bolt wears thru it will fall down in the engine. Ive heard from a couple other guys having this issue as well. I got very lucky
Is this noticeable just by looking at it?
Yes please do one on the 68rfe behind the 6.7👍
Kinda funny they had the BorgWarner logo when you showed the turbo that's where I work but my plant makes timing and drive chains
I sold my 6.7 because I wasn't really towing much and the issues related to soot would only get worse. I bought a F-150 ecoboost I get same turbo performance is what I wanted without the diesel emmision issues. Deleting emissions wasn't an option it basically meant I would lose value can't smog it, or pass state inspections.
Love this channel....
I would love to hear about the transmission in the 2020 2500 diesel
me and my buddy have basically the ford and dodge equivalents of eachother, both are 2019 6.7's and we both had them fully deleted by the dealer, aswell as all the regular things done to them to improve reliability (live in rural alberta, ca) then got tuners from the same company and both of our trucks are around 170k miles. and honestly they both have held up quite well, both have had their share of shop hours, but so far both have been about equal in terms of reliability, I prefer my powerstroke all day but the 6.7 cummins is a nice motor when maintained well
please make a video on the different trans options on the cummins equipped Rams, including the g56 :D
A rear coolant reroute helps a ton with the head gasket issue
Hey man! Scrolling through your account trying to find stuff on Chrysler engines since I’m a mopar tech. I found this and I work on these so thanks for the useful info, could you do a video on the Chrysler 2.0L Tigershark? It would mean a lot to have extra knowledge about my own engine
I had to take my 2020 Ram 2500 in for DPF Filter Full/See Dealer message this past weekend with only 23,700 miles on the truck. I had to take in about 3,000 miles ago back in February for the same thing where a forced regeneration was preformed and only have had two active regen cycles since them. Yesterday morning DPF when from 25% full to 50% to Actice Regen to Filter full in about 15 miles of driving on freeway. Does anyone have any insight as to what is most likely the culprit: not driving truck enough(only pull heavy about 4-6 times a year and I work about 4 miles from my home) or is this a bad DPF that will need to be replace?
Cummins is pretty reliable but the underrated reliable medium duty in-line 6 navistar dt466e and dt466 are super reliable especially without emissions stuff. The Maxxforce version was alright but with all the “Maxxforce emissions stuff” it doesn’t last long before needing a rebuild.
DT-466’s we’re dogs in small semis
I work at a heavy duty diesel repair shop and I commonly see the 6.7 Cummins being used in commercial applications such as in massive freigtliner box trucks and tow trucks
When I was in our garden I thought about the 6.7 Cummins and I’m just 12 but I take a big interest in all trucks I studied about trucks for 5 years and from the Cummins diesel family the 6.7 Cummins is by far the worst,I’m more of a Ford 6.4 guy but the 5.9 Cummins is reliable at the most but the 6.7 Cummins May put out the most power and torque,it doesn’t me it puts out the most reliability over all great video ,the 5.0 is nice as well
Once your diesel truck is out of warranty, add a water methanol injection system. It helps steam clean the entire system. It also keeps your EGT's in a much healthier range when towing uphill heavy.
I just bought a bus here in Australia with a 4.5 isb in it, it seems to be a good little engine but I can't seem to find that much information about it other than it shares a lot of its components with the 6.7 isb just with a smaller turbo.
I wonder if all of these problems could be related to the Cummins iSB or b series 6.7 version.
Could you make a video on the 48re transmissions in the 3rd gen Dodge ram heavy duty trucks from 06-07 I believe they put them in the 03-05 trucks as well thank you 🙏
Less Soot = Happy DPF.
It really is that simple.
Can be achieved by more boost and less fuel. There is plenty of talk out there on how to make a stock Cummins regen less and have better MPG.
Diesel delete=happy engine
U dint talk about the heater grid bolt falling apart and going into the cylinder.
I have a 2020 ram 3500. Ram has recalled the CP4 fuel pump but as of yet every dealer has told me it has not been authorized and the replacement parts are, apparently, not available. I have 144k miles on my truck (I know, I drive the hell out of it). As of yet it's fine but I really would like the pump switched out before it actually does implode.
Did you get it replaced yet?
Dude I'm loving this channel lately. Great info. I drive a deleted 6.4 F450... it's company owned luckily
Calling the epa on u
Ew a 6.4 gross
Great video. Would like to see a video on the transmissions for the RAM trucks too. I knew I would have issues with my Cummins emissions system with more in-town driving and just took those parts out of the equation a few years ago.
The ASIN is pretty good. There are rumors of Allison 9 speed maybe that German 8 if it can handle the TQ
How has your transmission held up?
@@wrongthinker350 No issues. I have the transmission tuning package for the 68RFE and shift on the fly tunes. I use 30 or 60hp tunes for towing and don’t act crazy when unloaded.
@@brenteason9891 I'm doing mine tomorrow with the EFI live tunes and shift on the fly. Any advice?
@@brenteason9891 what tuning package did you use on your transmission?
Im a school bus tech. Ive mostly found that engine blow by is a major problem with the 6.7. Clogs the EGR cooler and valve in a few months. This is a problem near 200,000mi. Not exactly sure why we are having blow by problems. Ring or engine block material problem? We do change the crankcase filter often. But with the blow by problem can only last a couple weeks before clogged filter.
My fedex truck had a cummins . It lasted around 750k miles before it was retired for the transmission. It never broke . Never lost power
You still do fedex? Did you get another Cummins?
The grid heater bolt and nut can corrode and fall into the intake. It will damage a piston and head.
How do the transmissions hold up ???
No mention of the grid heater bolt coming loose and getting consumed by the engine?
Don't see any head gasket issues with 6.7s in commercial trucks and don't know anyone with a ram 6.7 that has head gasket issues either.
The head gasket is no longer an issue, unless pushed over 600Hp then it does need studs. Past issues were caused by imperfections made by the block makers
Please make a video in regards to ram trucks transmission. I have a 2017 Ram 2500 limited 4x4 with continuous transmission issues. I only have 31k miles and been having issues since I purchased new in 10/2018. Took my truck in to dealership 3 weeks ago and dealership claims issue is my reared gear oil. Owner manual maintenance is 50k, but dealership notified me the tech bulletin from manufacturer Ram to change gear oil at 20k if heavy towing or 30k normal drive. Btw, my truck been to 5 different dealerships due to transmission issues. Starting issues around 1500 miles to present. Thank you
2012-13 intake air heater relay solenoid which will cause the intake air heater stud to break off and eject itself into the number 6 cylinder requiring a new head and piston
BTW, the turbo on the Cummins does not have vanes that actually move like the others. It has a sliding ring that moves axially over static vanes to control exhaust flow. It has fewer moving parts and mechanisms, thus is far less complicated. However, that certainly doesn’t mean it’s immune from soot buildup. Emissions.....ruining our engines one mile at a time. The worst part is....the people who came up with these regulations don’t have the slightest clue what any of this is or how it works, infuriating. Thanks for sharing!
Dude doesn’t know what kind of turbo it has, how can he speak on any of this stuff? Is he a mechanic or just a forum jockey.
With a 2016 Cummins, I often times I pull over while towing 20k and the 'active' regen is ticking dpf away. So passive is not nearly enough clearly, even when driven hard/towing. I sure wish it were, I'd rarely ever need dpf.
I’d love to see all 4 transmission compared to each other!
Here is MY comparison based on the shop I work at. Allison is great for smaller applications...do NOT tune a truck with an Allison to create more torque because it is not a good transmission for power.
The Ford transmissions are almost just as bad as the Chevy ones but they don't hold up at all.
The dodge transmissions seem to hold up very well.
We have rebuild about 4 or 5 dodge transmissions in the 2 years I've worked at my current shop. Chevy we have rebuilt about maybe 150. Ford's....well....we do 3-4 a week...or more....some weeks we do nothing but Ford transmissions. Apart from a warranty on a Duramax head gasket, for the past month the only thing we have worked on is Ford's at the shop...so tired of fords HAHAHAHA
Not sure what the 4th one you are talking about is but I'm also tired so probably forgot
@@Kolonol1 two ram transmissions, aisin and 68
The only issue that are popping up is the side Cover where the heater plate Bolts break off and smoke the Piston or the Valves.
Ok I just ordered a 2023 Dodge Ram 3500 with the 6.7 Cummins so does anyone know if these issues have been resolved in the upcoming year trucks?
Great Video 👏⭐⭐⭐⭐
The one thing I will tell anyone who wants to delete/ do power adders. Install ARP head studs. You will blow the head gasket pretty easily.
I've blown it easily in the past but not so much now.
Can't forget about the bolt in the heater grid that likes to break and fall into cylinder 6
Its kind of good to live in a country where there are no emission laws. Rams with the cummins diesel (and many other diesels) come deleted from the factory 😛
Wheres that?
@@LoganC278 Panamá (where the Panama canal is). Usually these type of things happen in almost all Latin American countries, where there aren't any emission laws or even vehicle safety regulation laws for that matter. We get all cars from all global markets.
@@Kevin09210 man, that's some good deal yall got I'm jealous
@@LoganC278 yeah, but it not without issues. We can get really unsafe cars that can kill you in a major crash (cars with no airbags and with really unsafe bodies that crumble with its occupants inside) and cars that pollute the air way worse. We can also get cars made for the US, but made with lower quality standards because its a vehicle that will be sold in another country. This doesnt happen with all manufacturers and all models, though. We have to do our homework if we want to get a good car overall.
@@Kevin09210 I guess its not all sunshine and rainbows over there, but at least u have some stuff to look forward to over there
I have owned every Duramax Year since 2002 and only had an Injector issue on the 2003 but other then that not One Problem until now with the head Gaskets leaking.
I found a ‘07 Ram 3500 dually with under 70k miles that I am considering to buy. The truck is deleted and tuned. Assuming the truck has such low miles and has been used on occasion by previous owners. What issues should I look for?
07 didn't have def..... lol
Simple and to the point, thank you
But we can agree Allison along with Cummins are unbeatable!!!!
I currently have a hemi and have been trying to convince myself to buy a diesel. The more I see these videos the more I can't convince myself to buy one. Looks like I just need to get another hemi. My Ram hemi has been sooo reliable.
Junk hemi
can you do a video about everything wrong with a vortec 4200
Have a couple buddies who have them and one had the transmission shit the bed shortly after he got it home…less than 1000kms…transmission took months to come in from the factory so the dealer had to give him a new truck…but no issues with the engine…another friend of mine blew his engine up at around 200,000 miles but he had a problem with changing the oil so it was a self inflicted wound…
Don't forget about the bolt on the intake heater that can break off and cause engine damage
No grid heater bolt mention??? I see that as often as all but the DPF issues.
Had 2 67 an 1 59 both were great
I run one of these in an Ottawa yard truck. Damn thing is an underpowered slug.
What about the 6.7 Cummins in the Ford f650?
