Detroit DD15 overhead valve adjustment. Freightliner Cascadia

Hi Truckers! Valves are a crucial component in the diesel engine when it comes to running at peak performance and ensuring the engine has proper combustion.
In this video, Jose walks you through the process of an overhead (valve adjustment) on a DD15 in a Freightliner Cascadia. Tune in to see how to access the valves, identify the engine components in the overhead, how to test the valves current placement and what we do in an overhead to adjust the valves.
This video was brought to you by Era Service and Era Transport in Chicago.

[@alexshortsplus]

Great instructional educational video thank you for sharing it

[@TruckYoo]

Thanks for watching Alex!

[@heavydutyrepair64]

Very easy overhead adjustment

[@joeyslaughter5791]

Thanks for the video. Should an oil change be done when the engine is opened up like that?

[@wd2862]

Super, thank You.

[@Adoken101]

Thank you🎉, 👍 good 🙏

[@Willtek5]

Very nice. In the future it would be nice to see what a properly adjusted valve feeler gauge looks like. You covered both too tight and too loose but not Goldie Locks just right :-)

[@TruckYoo]

Thanks for watching

[@dimitrovbmw]

Can you do video for d12 engine as well?

[@467inc]

After this do we replace valve cover bolts?

[@Shortstop-xm1do]

I think I need this done to my truck. MPG has dropped from 9 to 8.4 and very slow acceleration even with cruise on. What’s the ball park price range for getting this service? It’s a 2019 Cascadia 126slp DD15 engine

[@usjettransinc8029]

can you do video for d13

[@sukhsidh]

When is the first time adjustment due on the Dd15

[@nathan00campbell]

i thought you were suppose to use blue thread locker on the adjusting studs to the jam nut, and torque to 37 ft-lbs

[@stilliraise9201]

How much they charge for 2019 cascadia valve adjustment

[@1971bigrob]

Bad boy and his tools

[@wisdom9195]

How much do you guys charge for this service? How long does it take?

[@satbir3719]

overhead adjustment & tuneup is same thing??

[@oasisauto]

Where’s that at …I want this guy to work on my truck

[@nouredineajgal1374]

What is the purpose of overhead valve adjustment

[@thadiesel7655]

Where are u located. I'm gonna need this done on mine in 80k miles

[@booyakashaboy7250]

Anyone know how much a valve adjustment like this should cost?

[@Spinmoove]

Great video. Big tip tho. Turn the original audio down and do a voice over, especially when you in the shop, or you in big open areas, or pretty much always. Yeah

[@alexandertakele6136]

Doesn’t the valve cover always have to be resealed or a gasket in between?

[@Dirt-d]

No

[@joefeng23]

Where’s the shop?

[@motojesse]

Wish u would have shown the actual adjustment.

[@kengerman1014]

How do you know when you need a valve adjustment? I'm at 586k miles now on my dd13. Any info appreciated,

[@Gstarxpress]

If u hear engine got louder when idling than it was before. U can tell the difference. U also compare your engine noise to other similar trucks by standing front of your trucks hood.

[@TTuckerTrucking]

Where are you guys located

[@MrGsxrk8]

How do u know when the valves need adjustment?? Are there signs?

[@davids4063]

I am wondering the same

[@beauschultz2491]

Valve adjustment is suppose to be adjusted at predetermined mileages/hours listed in the service manual. I recommend every 225-250k miles or when in depth mechanical troubleshooting or anytime the rockers are removed/replaced for any # of reasons

[@Jokers59th]

The music was the only thing I liked 😂

[@matthewpolo227]

FEW MORE VIDS LIKE THESE I CAN START MY OWN REPAIR BIZ A BLOCK AWAY..OR WE CAN JUST MAKE A DEAL AND BECOME PARTNERS.

[@nathanharrison816]

We don’t know you!

[@467inc]

Man I will drive all the way to the chi to get my shit done by them with no problem

[@user-ce7qb3ko9l]

Valves need alignment every 100k/250k and 460k don’t make the mistake of replacing injectors until you readjust your valves.

[@raymondwandell8880]

Could you please define"rotation"?

[@ramrumble]

Engine rotate

[@raymondwandell8880]

I mean how far.

[@allday3433]

What song is that 4:50

[@johnnybatogiannis7629]

Pet Shop Boys "It's a sin"

[@0dbm]

Background music

[@quinwatier4281]

4.6 what

[@maigematthews5620]

Can you suggest a good company to buy these set of tools from? And by your opinion, what are some bad companies to get tools from? Once again, great vid. I’m sure us viewers will watch this as reference time and time again. Especially automotive schools!

[@wildwesthunt17]

ВЫ меня извените я механнник с 20 летним стажем и вот что думаю как можно рассказывать о регулеровке клапанов что некто и понять не может Вы сами понимаете что делаете???

[@rowellhowell2707]

Need a mechanic really bad

[@7thfloorisnomoreq790]

How many hours does this job pay?

[@californiadreaming9216]

Hello friend. With respect, this video is of very little value for a truck owner/home mechanic. Insufficient info (fast forward) on methodology for immobilizing engine/rotating engine, then you didn't even show us how valve adjustment is performed, nor how adjustment is retained. I'm guessing it's clockwise on the torx screw to tighten, counter-clockwise to loosen, with locknut loosened before/after adjustment. Could you clarify that please? Thanks.

[@clintbeatey2362]

First of all I not a negative person . Sorry I didn't think you went in depth

[@clintbeatey2362]

What I mean by is not enough explaining between the A and B rotation what value to set at what time

[@ramrumble]

Maybe they don’t have the time to do all of that, they just want to show you “kinda” how it’s done, they still need customers to come in for service

[@dell7054]

how do u know u need valve adjustment i have a 2018 cascadia 460k

[@TruckYoo]

If you didnt have one yet. Do it
