Replaced my turbo actuator, now truck isn't running right.

3 Upvotes

I have a 2017 Ram 3500 that had the U010C code. I replaced my turbo actuator with one that came 'pre-calibrated". Immediately after replacing it, I noticed my truck sounded like it was idling a bit different, but just barely, so I didn't think much of it. Fast forward 10 days and my truck is doing the following:

Sounds louder when in gear, even if not moving. Seems to idle rough, almost like a loping sound. Truck bogs down/almost dies at low RPMs

Is there a chance the turbo actuator is causing this by not being properly calibrated?

Other possible culprits that I've determined could be responsible are the FCA and the MAP sensor. I'll be checking those next. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Got this 2019 3500. I’m running hotshot. I can’t do a complete delete. What are my best options with the exhaust system?

I have a 2006 dodge 2500 it has the 48re trans. I was just doing some normal driving when the truck was acting weird going down the road, kind of a clunky sound. After that at low speeds it doesn’t want to move but barely will and sounds very grindy. I’m sure I’ll have to drop the trans but does anyone have an idea of what went out? I will try to get a better video tomorrow.

12 valve turbo upgrade?

2 Upvotes

Just got my motor back from the shop, and I need to change up my build plan. (Lots more broken shit than I thought and a baby now on the way)

Motor has

Hamilton towing cam

60lb valve springs

18 degrees of timing

4k gov spring

Number 8 fuel plate

Fass180

Stock injectors

Fresh rebuild on the long block

I’m gonna get an upgraded cooler, 3 piece exhaust manifold, intake box/ intake.

I’m not SUPER concerned with making a ton of power, I just want the truck to drive nicely and reliably. I was going to do the crazy carls twins, but now going with getting my hx35 rebuilt.

Anyone know fuck all about compressor wheel sizing? There’s so many variables it’s hard to figure out what’s what, but I just want the truck to run well without having to wait forever to get the thing to spool.

CEL with P02E3 code

1 Upvotes

I've been chasing a CEL with a code that my mechanic (not a dealer) couldn't definitively diagnose. He told me to take it to a dealer, which I plan on, but they're weeks out and I need to get my truck registered. I've already paid my registration fees and have done a temp tag. I am now on my 2nd and last temp tag, so I've gotta figure this out ASAP.

Truck is a 2017 Ram 3500. About 115k miles on it.

I am fairly handy with a wrench. I've done the full EGR service. I can probably replace whatever the problem part is on my own.

Any thoughts?

Injectors 2016 Ram 3500 6.7l 68RFE 113k miles

1 Upvotes

Just after 100k miles, the truck started misfiring, most noticeably under load. Mileage wasn't good. Eventually I got a code P020B for injector 2, so I replaced injector 2. The symptoms improved, but I still experienced stumbling. Eventually I got a hard code for injector 6 and there was a pending code for injector 4. I replaced both of those last night and went for a test drive. Stumbling is better, but not gone.

My current plan is to drive it until another code pops. If it's one of the injectors I've replaced already I would suspect a bad replacement part. Any suggestions?

Thank for reading.

Engine misfire when towing and P0336 code

2 Upvotes

2006 dodge 3500. The issue seems to be heat related and only occurs when towing. The trailer loaded weighs approximately 11000 lbs. The problem occurs after 30 or so miles of towing. The truck very harshly bumps and power cuts. I can reduce speed for a few miles and then it occurs again until I have gone from 70 mph to 40 mph. I was able to crawl at 40 for several miles. Transmission was rebuilt recently but problem existed before that. The only code is for a crank position sensor and the CEL comes on either just before or right when the power loss begins. A new, oem sensor was installed but did not cure the issue. Could this be a battery issue has indicated by the code reader? I do have new battery cables on order since mine are corroded. Fuel delivery failure? Reluctor wheel? Any advise greatly appreciated.https://i.imgur.com/XIPO8nC.jpg

XRT Pro Diesel Downloader

1 Upvotes

Good evening, y'all.

I know H&S shut down, but I was wondering if anyone had the software for the H&S XRT Pro Diesel Downloader and a EGR/DPF delete tune for my truck? I had accidentally used an Edge CTS3 with tunes (I'm new to the diesel world and actually had no idea my truck had DPF and EGR deletes done to it.)

Thank you!
