Excellent video, to the point. Thank you, kindly.

[@darkirondiesel]

You’re welcome!

My performance service light came on and went and bought the ccv filter. The dealership wanted 900.00 for that and to install it. I watched your video, and I am doing it myself tomorrow. Thank you

[@jimmywest8506]

Thanks brother, you just saved me from having a hart attack. Replaced filter and apparently I didn't do the pedal sequence correctly. After watching your video I was able to clear code.

[@mxgangrel]

Thanks. Stumbled on this while looking for videos for the fuel filters and this is my next thing to do so figured I'd get ahead and watch it. Appreciate your time.

[@scotthelgerson533]

I needed this. I can do it myself and don’t need to pay the dealer. Im now a subscriber! Thank you!

[@mrbizmarky1]

Excellent video . Piece of cake. I just turned 69,000 miles and that message came up along with the service DEF system so I’m changing the filter myself and may have to go to the dealer for the def service

[@michaelseamone6115]

When doing any work add in torque specks if any. Great information video.

[@jakehockey96]

Got this done quick and smoothly thanks to you! Great video. Stupid 10mm bolt and rear 8mm bolts was annoying to get to lol.

[@casrojinegro76]

Thanks to explain how reset the performance service!!!!!

[@bobsargent4906]

Is it a good idea to change the filter before the check engine comes on? I have a 2023 2500.

[@ubaldogonzalez1747]

Thank you so much for this video ... the dealer was telling me it will take six to eight hrs. to do this ... $90/hr. ... WHO?????? Thank you, thank you so much!!!

[@chrisspence3216]

How often does it need change ? I just changed mine in October last year ? I have a 2016 ram 3500 with 67760 miles I had about 56k miles last year when I did it ? I do tow a lot everyday I have a grading business so always towing 15k lbs if that matters I always maintain with factory or Napa filters and synthetic oils and change my own. Fuel filters often ?

[@billwright6800]

Thanks for showing how to clear that message. I was hoping I could do that without going to a dealer.

[@paulricelli5520]

Nice vid. Quick and to the point. No bullshit.

[@rubenarguello13]

Thanks for the vid I literally did this like 20x and It wouldn’t get I thought cuz my truck was manual but thanks got it, 2016 ram 2500 g56

[@darkirondiesel]

That’s sweet you got a manual. I got a manual 5.9, but the newer 6.7’s are pretty rare to find one.

[@LetsGetRushed]

Drove me nuts for a couple days. Thanks

[@independentthinker709]

Great Video, HAD BEEN watching motor city mechanic until I found your page. MCM has some good content, but nothing on resting codes on this level. I just subscribed and will be looking for more tips. This is my third cimmins 5.9, 6.7, 6.7 good engines but the rest of the truck is junk.

[@darkirondiesel]

Haha thanks man. Ya the engine is definitely the best part of the truck

[@timross3008]

Great video. I’m going to look for more of your video’s.

[@cjtyner]

Thank you for the walkthrough of resetting the code.

[@darkirondiesel]

You’re welcome

[@scubieman]

Thanks for video. No one said accelerator

[@BigCountry67]

I really like your channel. Good stuff.

[@D2THAC807]

Thanks brother. The video was exactly what I needed.. You did great. Thanks again.

[@njgl2010]

Im sitting in my truck watching this and every time the dinger DINGS in your vid I look up at my dash wondering what my truck is doing lol.

[@darkirondiesel]

Hahaha 🤣

[@andrewyoder9440]

Great video and explained very well! Love your videos!

[@maxgarcia9512]

Good Video. Thanks...Does this process also apply to a 2021 Dodge Ram 6.7l Cummins Diesel too and do you clear the perform service light the same way on the 2021?

[@efrenruiz5379]

So perform service means just to change the ccv filter only or do you have to clean the egr valve and the egr cooler too?????

[@crazycanuck4927]

I just did mine for the 2nd time on my truck… noticed to hairline cracks/fractures on 2 of the bolts plastic area… do I need a new cover now or should I just watch for any leaks or maybe cracks getting bigger? The cover looks to be about $650-$700 CAD…

[@cristianfranco1301]

What a legend

[@GerardoLopez-wp4yz]

Great job doing the video. It really helped me. thanks!.

[@northsouth4299]

Thank you for short simple video

[@PetersonFarmsofNashvillePFON]

Thanks for sharing Great info and told me what I needed to know

[@ronnieam33]

The entire reset process can not take longer than 10 seconds or it will not reset.

[@philthis68]

Great add after reading this it helped out thanks

[@maxmartinez8387]

thank you i did it 3 times and it wasn’t erased till i saw this comment i did it pretty quick before the 10 seconds and the code went away the first try thank you

[@flanneryd]

I've been sitting here in my car. Being very careful and taking too much time it wasn't working. Thank you so much for the ten second tip!

[@civilwolf4843]

Thanks! 2017 Ram and went through steps to remove Perform Service code fast to reset. Slow did not work for me!

[@josearchilapineda8158]

Thank you my friend excellent teaching

[@tomgarcia7220]

Thanks for this... you are a stud

[@shanebishop5677]

I like all your video's very awesome information

[@nelsonfernandez8164]

Thanks a lot for your video! Very useful.

[@kosteelers]

What’re your thoughts on the CCV breather kits? Doesn’t seem smart to have oil vapors flowing into the turbo, intercooler, throttle valve and sensor so plugging the vapor line on turbo intake and removing ccv filter element under the valve cover and only having the small filter at the top.

[@marcellodepaoli1341]

Thanks I follow all the steps and works perfect

[@kennethcantrill7607]

Everything went fine; however, I have a 2015 Ram 3500. If you have this year, and im not sure if its any other year like this, pump the brake twice and gas twice fast. That will clear the message

[@darkirondiesel]

That’s for the input! Some seem to like slow gas pumps and some like it fast haha

[@brittanyguardiola1030]

Thanks for this comment I tried it 10 times till I tried it the fast way worked on 1st try

[@tavoortiz7571]

I just did the fast way work the first time... thank you hermano..🤝

[@josemata5554]

Clear and loud excellent video

[@spdracr58]

@darkirondiesel any explanation why after changing the CCV filter the perform service would come on. changed it over the weekend at 57K miles and Perform Service came on. cleared using the brake/accelerator sequence and came back on again this AM

[@MRCHUYGARCIA]

thanks for this video, help me a lot.

[@COCODIYGAMER]

Great video thank-you Sr now I can change my filter. 👍👍👍

[@franciscohunter4422]

Thanks 🙏 brother for showing us your knowledge

[@angelsimperfi1999]

Hell yeah!! Thanks man!!

[@cynicaltexan9639]

i tightened those screws back down with my dewalt torque drive just fine. didnt hold it on it 2 quick knocks

[@houstonmurray5681]

Thank you so much was an easy change thanks to your instructions

[@georgeeadeh8284]

I tried to rest the service light the way you showed and it still there 2022 tradesmen Thank you

[@oscariturralde1270]

🎉 good video. Thank you very much I appreciate the help.

[@bullrunoverland7022]

OR...after watching another video...does it come on based on mileage ?? Not because there is an issue?

[@HomeLabEnt]

Thanks. It's working.

[@saulmadera2621]

Thank you very much

[@cynicaltexan9639]

It is snowing deep in central Texas today. so i took my truck out to mess around and this message came on after awhile while spinning my wheels and driving

[@cynicaltexan9639]

it didnt stay on

[@cynicaltexan9639]

never mind

[@mikepilchercustoms]

Great video!!

[@wilsonpena9606]

My truck is already displaying the perform service message. To my understanding it is suppose to come on at 75,000 miles. I’m at 64k miles now. Could it be something else. I just had it serviced at the 60i miles mark too

[@melharris318]

I've seen other trucks that have been deleted but the def hand shows empty on this truck the def hand still reads full. Which programer are you using for the def hand to still read full.

[@socialexperimentgaming4808]

Hello, I have a 2014 ram 6.7 Laramie. Have you encountered the dash/cluster flickering? My dash/cluster is identical to this one I am deleted if that makes a difference. I read somewhere to check fuse box as they can pop out....holy crap they were all just barely in there! The problem persists though. Any ideas? Thanks

[@craigadam6964]

Am going to change coverage filter before scheduled service. Will the service message still appear at 69000 miles

[@darkirondiesel]

I am not sure, you could try going through the reset process of the light but I have a feeling it will still come up at the schedule milage.

[@philg1440]

I had to do the reset process 3 times to get it to go away. In between each, I opened my door and closed it and did it again. Total of 3 times before my code went away.

[@elfederal4]

It's the same way with 2008. ? When change the filter how can reset or turn off the light SERVICE PERFORMANCE?

[@gregoryroque4030]

I changed the filter, cleared the warning message; I have the same reoccurring message? Ideas?

[@TheSlinkster]

I did exactly that. Still had the Perform Service light on after resetting with the brake and throttle. Now it seems the Perform Service light doesn't come on anymore. But, ii still have the Contact Dealer warning coming on, is that Contact Dealer warning something different? How do i get that to not come on anymore? I'll know for sure if the Perform Service light is off after i take it for a ride in a while. PLEASE HELP WITH THAT CONTACT DEALER WARNING. I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins

[@paulreithknecht5616]

[@jessyalcala1543]

I tried clearing the perform service light and it’s still appearing on the messages

I've been trying to get my preform service light to go off. Iv tried several times. Still on. What should I do ? 08 6.7

You need to do it very quickly less of 10 seconds

[@josevictorino7338]

👍👍

awesome

[@naterussell6025]

-29C thats pretty cold in the shop.

[@chrisfriel3633]

I have the 08 6.7 and did this and it keeps saying see dealer now perform service can you help me out on this please

[@78thilton]

Thumbs up

[@caidenstyles2644]

So I did exactly that and now I have a check engine light on. I’m guessing I should have cleaned it a little bit better.

[@Waterstsanjo]

How often do you do this?

[@darkirondiesel]

Just whenever the perform service light comes on I think it’s like every 85000 miles or something

[@2003evodave]

2017 Ram HO Cummins and just got the “perform service” light as I was pulling 12000 lbs up a big and very long hill. Zero issues with performance or temperature and this happened at 32k miles. This rig sits most of its time and gets almost all of its use in summer towing a 12k travel trailer averaging about 4000 miles per year. As I understood it the perform maintenance light automatically goes on at 64k miles not half that? So why is my warning light on? Anyone know???

[@Knuckledragnation]

I recently purchased a 16’ Ram Laramie 6.7 with 81k. That hat Perform Service come up a few months back when I would mash the accelerator. I left it alone and my wife and I ended up hooking up the toy hauler and taking a 1,500 mile round trip. Now the Perform Service doesn’t come up at all. You ever heard of these filters clearing themselves out? Especially given that in all likelihood the CCV filter had been serviced at the 67.5k interval?

[@MrMariobig]

So the perform service ligh will still alert you if your truck has been deleted

[@darkirondiesel]

Yes the perform service light has nothing to do with your emissions. It’s to notify you that it’s time to change your CCV filter.

[@cabinets10]

Hey brother, I just serviced the ccv filter and I did exactly what you said not to on the bolts, on one of them I tightened it down a little to hard and cracked the portion the bolt attaches too, how critical do you think that is? Should you recommend I ordered a new valve cover and replace it? I’m crapping my pants

[@darkirondiesel]

I don’t think it’s a big deal man, only one broke? You should be fine. All that does is hold that ccv filter in place. The actual valve cover is underneath the ccv filter

[@cabinets10]

Dark Iron Diesel thnks brother I couldn’t sleep. I appreciate you’re reply

Yes only one broke the very end one close to the oil cap on passenger side

I had recently changed this filter in my 2011 after seeing your video. Did not have a service notification. Just id it. BUT...today after a 15 hour drive the "perform service" notification popped up. Should I change it again? Truck only has 140K on it but in the last year its been really getting run on long trips.
