Nice to see an actual dealer tech sharing some good info, appreciate it and keep up the good work.

Thanks Brian! Always happy to share what knowledge I do have. Appreciate the kind words and make sure to subscribe!

Great informational video! Kept it short sweet to the point with good tips🤙🏽 Thank you very much. Keep posting vids

[@MHXsuggestions]

I completely agree. No BS straight to the point.

[@TheHyde8875]

Only thing I would say different is cycle key on/off 3 times for 30 seconds each time. It's the recommended prime procedure.

[@raggamuffin3928]

Dodge charges me 450 to change out the 2 filters on my 2015. I got both filters and an oil filter on Amazon ( Mopar) for $100.00 Pretty safe to say I'll be doing this myself from now on

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Yeah that seems a bit excessive to me. We charge around $50 in labor for each filter and then the price of the filter. As you saw....its simple enought.....just costs you some time but saves some money. Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe.

[@stephenajones4438]

My local dealer charges $410 for a fuel filter change. Looks like I'll be pocketing that $410 now. Thanks a Ton

[@supremekingjesus425]

Damn that crazy $450? For a fuel filter??? I'm glad I been doing my oil change since I was 10 years old. I love changing out my oil and filters. I used rotella synthetic 15w40 and my truck love the damn oil

Thank you so much for this video. You explain everything. I watched your ccv filter change, egr valve & cooler cleaning videos, and was able to save about $700.00. Thanks.

Glad that the video helped. Thats alot of money to be saving. My hats off to you for taking on the job and getting it done! Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe

[@jddiguido]

Good video, But... This is what's giving dealerships a bad reputation. $400+ to do what you did and to spin off a water separator filter and spin a new one on. TOTALLY OVERCHARGED!!! That's $100 in parts & $300 labor for less than an hour of labor. We're getting RAMed......

[@MotorCityMechanic]

At our dealership we charge 0.5hrs which is around $50-$75 depending on the shops labor rate.....plus the part. I have heard some charging 1.0hrs and thats over kill for sure. Some trucks have one filter and the later models 2 but still the same none the less for each. There are good dealerships and bad dealerships for sure. One reason I make these videos is to inform people like yourself so that you know how long it takes and what they are charging for. Thanks for commenting and make sure to subscribe John.

Does the 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 6.7 liter Cummins come with a rear fuel filter? What was the first year with front and rear filters?

[@unclesam8451]

Your videos are great! One question though, does your service manager get butt-hurt with you showing everyone how to do their own maintenance?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Not at all. I have their full support and the dealers support as well. I could see it being an issue but luckily they arent that type. I am sure there are some dealer techs that dont like it for sure lol. I just feel that knowledge needs to be shared. Thanks for the comment and for watching the videos and for following the channel

[@CTSCAPER]

It's the same for my '02 Cummins. Not sure if my lift pump is going bad or I should stop meticulously cleaning the bowl but it takes forever to refill the canister with the lift pump. I've gone to the turkey baster method to refill the canister after cleaning it out.

[@kevincameron8437]

Another great video..and the universal and 12" extension is the trick to this filter. Also for the rear filter, I had to get a larger fuel filter wrench..my strap wrench wouldn't work w/ the factory installed filter..but once I had the correct tools, easy peasy...

I reviewed your 2012 ram fuel filter change. So simple, and you showed me that. Since this video, you’ve come a long way. I appreciate your confidence!

[@angelalagermann6776]

great videos.if i may add, Ive currently got a 2004 ram 2500. Ive been changing my fuel filters myself just about every or every other oil change. I just wanted to say that keeping a good,clean fuel filter does help. Most will agree the that the 5.9 common rail diesel that i have in my 2004,the injectors will last about 150-170,000 miles before needing replaced. I didnt have to have mine replaced until 285,000 miles for the first time. The diesel shop (Scheid diesel in Illinois) was shocked to have seen mine go so long,and also commented they have not seen any go that long before with stock set up. keep the filters clean and use good quality filters. Also, i just ordered a new 2016 ram 3500, are they the same setup as 2015? Last question,with my 2004 i dont bump the ignition after i replace the fuel filter as you have mentioned in your video's. It has a fuel pump , so i turn the key to the "on" position and step away for a few minutes or untill i hear the fuel pump stop. its only going to pump fuel until it creates enough pressure so Why not just do that with these 6.7L? Thanks.

[@keithbubba5229]

Very helpful video. On 2016 Ram 3500 they have a short hose on front filter housing, but not long enough to clear everything. Found that the disposable hose that comes with jugs of Def fits over existing hose and get one clear of all objects. On video of rear filter, I encounter a great deal of fuel when I unscrewed filter--- this after attaching drain hose, opening drain and then removing water sensor.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The rear will drain then stop and then when you try taking it loose or the water sensor...it starts draining again. Plus being over the drive shaft.....it will splatter everywhere. Thanks for watching and for that tip as well. Much appreciated Keith. Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos as well.

[@rodrigorios250]

Hey buddy thanks for you videos hey I got a 2011 6.7 Imani so hard to take off any ideas that's up

[@MotorCityMechanic]

You can try a 1 1/8 inch socket as some have mentioned and then some extensions getting you high enough to use a breaker bar. They can be tight for sure......not sure how they get that way but I have had a few kick my rear!

[@aubreyroche5080]

I am getting ready to do it again and it usually doesn't take very long at all, mainly because I was not worried about the mess but this time I thought I would consult the PRO regarding the catch of the Mess..... :-) I really like the Idea of Relocating the filter and set up for a little more Mileage and Simplicity... If made more money I would Happily Pay you, the Pro... LOL.. Hope all is well with The Fam !

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks Aubrey for commenting and for watching. All is great on this end and hope the same for you!

[@mikecampbell119]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and very useful tips, especially where to place the socket extension. I was able to add an extension to the drain hose and drain it into an old water jug, but I still needed the oil pan to catch the overflow when the filter comes out. Geno's is selling the Cummins/Fleetguard 5260529 fuel filter for $68.95. Thanks again, appreciate it.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thats the same filter that Mopar uses so you cant go wrong. Thanks for watching and also for using Geno's. I deal with them on a regular basis and have done a few videos for them. They are great. Make sure to subscribe and share the videos with others.

[@wyley87]

I know this is one of your older videos so you might not see this comment. We have 6 of these trucks in our fleet. The last one I did hadn't been serviced yet with only 13,000 miles on it. While attempting to remove the cap, the center of it snapped off leaving a giant hole. I was able to get the rest of the cap off but it wasn't fun. Talked to the dealer where we bought it and they warrantied the $80 cap.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Old or new videos....youtube makes sure I get notified when comments are made. Cool to see that they warrantied it. I have had a few that kicked my rear for sure....those I mainly blame on previous techs. They make aluminum aftermarket versions that might help out in the end....especially if you do eventually have to replace another if it happens again.

I have the 2018 ram 2500 cummins, do I have to crank it 3-4s intervals or does the pump turn on momentarily on opening the switch.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Both. I turn it on and wait and then crank and then repeat.

[@BWT7210]

What if I stripped the fuel filter cap nut using a 1 1/8 socket? What do you recommend?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

What I do is place a rag over the nut and then the socket so as to give it a bit more of something to hold on to. The rag takes up the space between the socket and the cap hex portion. You may find that you may have to fold the rag once so that its two layers and you may also have to tap the socket on as it gets tighter with the rag. Thats how I usually get them off when someone else has stripped it. Hope this helps and make sure to subscribe

does the lift pump come on with these but simply turning the ignition on. Many other videos believe this is the cases. Mine is a 2015 with a pushbutton start. Is there any special concerns?

[@ut1004bp]

Thanks for the instructional video...the price of the filter is mindboggling (overpriced)...If you attach a long enough hose to the outlet of the filter canister (not sure what size, but 1/4 might slip right on), you should keep the drained fuel directed into a bucket rather than all over the engine, chassis, firewall etc. Drain before removing the cover to reduce the spillage. Also Be a good time to add Seafoam directly to the canister after installing the new filter, and start, run for 1-2 minutes and shutoff for 30 minutes for the seafoam to soak the injectors might also a good idea. Not so good to do at dealership as the vehicle is tying up the bay while sitting, but at home its not such an issue.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

There is a good reason for the price. I do need to do a video on that soon. I have looked at the Mopar and the other aftermarket filters and there is a difference internally. The Mopar or Fleetguard had 4 layers of filtration.....2 paper style sections and 2 mesh style. The aftermarket ones I have seen have only 1 layer and some have 2 layers. So you get what you pay for when it comes to these filters....they certainly arent the same internally. Thanks for all the added info and steps. Much appreciated.

[@sih7184]

1st Great Video as is the rest. huge help. and second with the fuel filter could someone add fuel to the filter houseing instead of having to turn the motor over. im sure you will have to turn it over once to build the pressure but i was just wondering

[@MotorCityMechanic]

+shifty pants Thanks for the comment. I find it easier to spin the engine over. Reason why is that it you had fuel to the housing first....theres a good chance that inserting the filter will force/splash some of the fuel out. Installing the filter first and then trying to get some fuel into the housing is slow going because you don't have much space to add the fuel. The other issue I see is having some diesel on hand to fill it in the first place. Sitting on the front seat and using the key is much more easier to me....I get a bit lazy sometimes and when the option is there, I'm taking it lol. Its a good thought however. Thanks again for watching and make sure to subscribe

[@mattcarpenter6290]

great video, thank you. what lube did you use for the o-ring? thank you

[@MotorCityMechanic]

matt carpenter I use a small touch of wheel bearing grease because it’s always handy. Just a touch to give it a bit of lube. Then wipe off any excess. That will do just fine and not cause any issues. Thanks for the question and for following the channel and make sure to subscribe

modica bros wanted 227$ for a single filter change. just grab a filter at your normal auto store 50-70$ depending on brand and do what he does in the video. i bought 2 for 108$ er so at O'Reilly's Auto Parts

[@CS-rb9jk]

Hi MotorCity. What do you think? My 2016 2500 cummins has what seems like a real slow throttle response. I drove a 2018 and it was night and day better. I've taken it to the dealer and asked them to check it. They said they could not find anything. But they did say my fuel filters could be causing the slow engine response. It has 12,000 miles on it and has good power once the throttle communicates with the ECM and it spools up. Could it just be the filters? That just doesn't make since because it has good power.

If the water in fuel light is in it could be a bad sensor or actual water in the fuel. Make sure based on the year of the vehicle that you see if you have the two fuel filters or just one. I would also take a fuel sample to make sure you dont see any water in it. If okay and the water in fuel sensor is plugged in correctly, then you may need a sensor. I personally would have it checked further however before replacing to make sure we are 100% what the cause is.

@@MotorCityMechanic ok thanks, I will check on that and my truck only has one fuel filter, the light came off for like a hour but came back on I'm going to check the fuel to make sure it's no water in it

You have to get into a time machine DeLorean and head back to the early 90's lol. Old video and glad that it eventually broke. I laugh to when watching those videos and seeing that.
