oops to quick

"I haven't been able to find a picture of these, because MAN, are there ever a lot of google hits on 6.0L engine problems! "


Sure their are/were problems with this motor. I had someone email a picture of there odometer reading with over 400,000km on the clock, that's pretty good.

My truck was in for warranty constantly during the warranty period. After the warranty ended the engine blew it's headgaskets.

I got my quotes on getting it fixed, my dealer was actually the 2nd cheapest by a long shot.

I got the work done a performance shop where I felt no "upsell" . Anyways it's been a year since the work was done and no problems. Before it wouldn't run 5 mos without the doctor putting a bandaid on it.

I've had my truck since new and it was never programmed believe it or not. The engine is a great design, they just added a bunch of cheap crap so the consumers can test it first....oops too many warranty claims...........we'll build a new motor.........6.4l.........oops we don't like our supplied engine, we'll build our own.

Who's the next guinea pig.

By the way I like my truck now that it's fixed and I am keeping it. 165,000 km.
