It was in for an EGR valve replacement and the tech determined that the turbo was sticking just slightly at 20psi. He determined that he should just replace the turbo for good measure because I only have 33k on the motor.
I have to believe that this is a remanufactured turbo as well, I do not think that they install new ones at this time. The main concern of mine was the new coating on the turbo itself. The SA and tech were suprised when they had seen it, because they had not before. Like I said earlier it could be a bad thing or a good...just unsure.
Also, I have never had a dealership tell me to call back, they just set an appointment....I would never even call them again or even stop in to buy an air freshener.
Just make sure you change your fuel filters(both) and do not let it excessively idle for long periods and the moisture problem should not be an issue. Also, pick up some motorcraft cetane boost and performance booster which could cause it to burn a little hotter and evaporate the moisture....that is what the master diesel tech told me....good luck!
