We bought a 2019 L5P used at 84k miles to pull a camper with on the weekends. The 1500 we had with the 5.3 was just being killed, and after buying the 2500 and diesel engine I could just kick myself for not doing it so much sooner. Completely different and better driving experience. It’s been 3 years now and now I am getting really nervous. It’s the ONLY vehicle we have, so I depend on it for work as well, but I know I’m driving around on a ticking time bomb of built in repair BILLS that will cost thousands, money I don’t have. So now I’ve done some research and I see the epa has been cracking down on service shops busting the guys who were doing the deletes and I can’t find anyone willing to do it. And delete systems that used to cost $1500 to $2500 now cost $5k to $10k. I’ve been considering doing the The Diesel Dudes delete, you buy the parts bundle from them and tune and install yourself, but I’m just not sure I have the ability or the time , and if ANYTHING goes wrong I definitely don’t have the backup vehicle to drive until it all gets straightened out.

Now with shipping rates so terrible and fuel costs, companies are dying at a fast rate, and it isn't going to slow down any time soon.

Diesel Podcast subscribers I need to vent a bit. I grew up in a state that was the “birthplace” of hot rods, NHRA and so many other cool things centered around the vehicle. At 15 I remember this same state implementing its first emissions test. Luckily for me I drove a vehicle that was pre 1976 or what ever year the cut off was for the test. Today at almost 55 years of age today I would have never guessed that “simple” emissions test along with California’s own CARB would snowball into what it has become today with all its strength, influence, power added to the EPA’s reach. From restrictions on certain aftermarket parts being ordered/shipped to my home (state) to the recent emissions recall notice I received from Ram, it’s my belief, this all goes back to that “simple” test back in 1984!!! This unfortunately reaches the motorcycle community or virtually anything with a fuel burning engine that’s sold to the public. Why am I saying this? Well as I said I wanted to vent but also (and maybe I late to the party) but I wanted this to hopefully be a lesson/warning for all those out there in other states. But also I say this because it’s my belief that restrictions like this stymie growth and innovation at the grassroots level. Especially for garage guys like myself who love to tinker and pass down some things to his kids. ✌🏽🇺🇸🙏

Years ago they caught a car engineer on mic and I heard the conversation where he admitted that when you are going down hill with no throttle input your vehicle ECU is dumping fuel into your engine for the sole purpose to heat the catalytic converter.

He stated in this interview that they could actually make gasoline powered vehicles run cleaner and obviously make more power without catalytic converters but the government; EPA, wouldn’t let them stop putting them on the vehicles. Definitely nothing changed.

To have the least amount of problems with your diesel work truck is to always always be careful fueling, no dirt, no water, clean clean fuel with a good liquid additive is so important. Keep your oil clean, and air cleaner too ! Remember, cp4s are used in Europe and work very well as the European diesel fuel is better, higher cetane and more refined, unlike Americas diesel fuel. Have a professional fix your motor with tuning and get the best out of your trucks ! No water, no dirt and no def ! They can run so good and last a long time !

Several things I've observed in the trucking industry. During covid and supply shortage, the EPA green lighted dealers to turn off dpf/def systems until the supply chain stabilized. Next, I am seeing a lot of 2020,2021 trucks for sale and advertising "fresh rebuilt engine", that's literally a 2 and 3 yr old truck, maybe 500k miles with a fresh rebuild. Next, my 3 trucks are gliders, all are 12.7 detroits 1999s, all are highly modded for big power, all average at least 6.5mpg pulling flatbed and the blocks are all between 2.5-3million miles, all three engines were inframed twice, in 07 and 2014, and full out of frames in 2021. My buddy has a fleet of 389s and w900s, 2022/2023 and they've had nothing but problems with the emissions, turbos and mpg sucks.

[@isaiahwelch8066]

Given this conversation, this isn't just happening with diesel trucks. It's happening with tuner and modified cars as well. Literally, people are still getting tickets in places that are emissions tickets, for not keeping a car stock. Yet the emissions on the car are better than what stock emissions are required to be. From what I've seen, people are under the impression that if a car is "modified," then somehow what comes out of the exhaust is worse than what it otherwise would be. And this is not the case.

[@mikelemoine4267]

You think you have it bad, I have a 2014 Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel. The EPA mandated re-tune makes it feel like I'm towing a garbage truck behind it, and dropped the mileage at least 10%. Oh, and it also lost a rod 200 miles into a 230 mile trip and puked a couple of quarts of oil on the side of the road before being hauled to the dealer on a diesel flatbed to wait for another half ton of ore to be mined somewhere with diesel equipment before being shipped overseas to Italy to be built into another engine, before being shipped on a carrier that burns a gallon of tar sludge every 4 inches or so as it moves across the ocean (no emissions on those); before being trucked from Detroit to Florida to be installed in my vehicle. Yeah it;s a run on sentence, but it was far more annoying in real life🙂 This all happened at just under 7 years old with 64K miles on it, and only 4K miles after FCA replaced the failed EGR cooler, the melted intake, a melted valve cover, melted injector tubes and cracked turbo hoses under a recall and AEM warranty. They also hit my aftermarket warranty for $1700 to fix a timing cover leak and front main seal on it. This is my wife's car which got the oil changed every 5K (factory suggests 10K), fuel filters every 20K and wasn't used for heavy duty service, towing, etc., but did a fair number of long road trips between 50-2000 miles. It's up to around $21K in repairs paid by the aftermarket warranty. It stinks as it's a great driving vehicle, but it's the least reliable turd I've ever owned. Warranty runs out in October 14th, selling it on the 13th!

"Hey, I have a 2020 duramax with 60% over injectors, a twin turbo setup with dual CP3's and I need custom tunes to make all these parts play nice together."

I understand the new emissions are making trucks clean. BUTT!!! Take note motors that at one time lasted 500k-100000k and were more dirty with less energy used to produce the older motors. New motors use more energy to produce them and maintain and don't live as long 250-300k at most. Soo the new motors need to be built. Long term we won't have old diesels trucks after 10 years when the parts run out and you can't delete it

@@patricksquires77 while most people won't take their truck back for the recall, many will take their trucks back for service, repair, warranty items etc. These dealers aren't required to ask permission to update the ECM/PCM with updates. If the customer goes into a dealer for an oil change, they're getting the update regardless. It's always been that way, can't tell you how many customers we deal with a year that bought a programmer for their truck and the dealership flashed the truck without asking and bricket the programmer making it worthless. We've been dealing with that problem for 20 years.

If you study Ideal gas law at atmospheres absolute you can easily disprove climate change narratives in relation to specific element CO2. Their physics of time, temperature and pressure dose not correlate with physics or Ideal Gas Laws. The base line coefficient of CO2 condensates at, 800 PSI @ room temp or 65 degrees Fahrenheit. To calculate that over a surface area or parts per million us this equation per ratio of atmospheric gases .7854xdia.2/PSI. You can win a court case with those equations because they are repeatable results at atmosphere absolute.

I did a stealth delete on my 2010 6.7. I left the CAT on. Ran better, went from 10-12 AVG to 18-22 AVG. MPG and exhaust was still clean and smelled clean. DPFs and DEF is just a scam IMO.

I got a paper in the mail the other day from ford saying there is a emissions update for the 6.7 power stroke mine is a 2012 so im assuming its the 2011-16 i think may be what it said

[@Wyomingfarmer]

Many commentors here still don't understand these diesel emissions systems. I understand the transportation and packaging of def/adblue isn't helping the environment but def itself is not harmful. Also the def system itself technically has nothing to do with the dpf or a regen. Regen is when the dpf is becoming plugged, exhaust temp is raised to burn filter out. Def is injected into exhaust only to react with the catalytic converter. Def is there to lower nox, dpf is there to filter soot, and egr is there to also lower nox. Egr systems are probably the biggest problem, can cause major reduction in engine life. Now plugged dpfs can also be harmful to the engine. Def on the other hand doesn't come in contact with engine, engine can be tuned to run clean, near no soot, engine stays clean along with oil.

[@rosen9425]

Agree, a lot of misinformed ideas floating around. The problem isn't DEF at all. It's the manufactures making/buying the cheapest crap system they can get their hands on, so of course they fail. A well running no fault def system literally means there will be no soot in the exhaust pipe. Seen it my self by literally swiping my finger in the exhaust pipe of a 13L Volvo engine. There's nothing but a thin layer of grey ash at the very most. The latest one I had was three years old and the pipe was clean metal, never smokes black. But the nox sensors crap out at an alarming rate. Crap components with a heavy OEM price tag. Fuel mileage on a 64,000kg unit, that's 141 095 lbs which far exceeds most US big rigs by a lot, still manages 5-6 mpg. Granted speed is euro governed at 52 mph though

It's great to know that people like Cory exist, that can and have shown that diesels can be more efficiently without the emissions. It's also why the laws doesn't set it so if it passes the standard that it is okay . Instead it says you can't change or alter the equipment.

Oh you losers and your defective thinking. If emission regulation were removed globally. You would not have common rail injection... hell you might not have direct injection.

[@vinnyhimes1190]

I have the same truck, those are great upgrades and yes, you've broken the law according to the EPA. DP tuner does not have CARB/EO certifications for their tunes or tuning devices. You could swap that out for an Edge Revolver (same exact thing) and they do have their CARB/EO certs. If you don't pay the Mob their testing fees which allow you to break the law, then you must pay their fines for breaking the law. It's a pretty neat little system the government has going on here.

[@vinnyhimes1190]

@@tomwalton2872 LOL, it's a giant joke man. The EPA literally makes the rules up as they go from shop to shop. The actual law they are trying to enforce state "Any aftermarket product that alters the way the vehicle ran from the factory is illegal to manufacture, sell, offer for sale, to purchase or install." so by that definition the DP tuner is illegal, that law was written in the 60's and amended several times since then. But that's what the ePA agent stuffed in my face when they visited our shop. We have no diesel emissions here in the state of Georgia which is where Dp Tuner is located. But the EPA is enforcing federal law, not state law. So that's where we get into trouble.

[@vinnyhimes1190]

@@tomwalton2872 these are fantastic questions. So the law they stuffed in my face when they visited our facility stated, "Any product that alters the way the vehicle runs from the factory is illegal to manufacture, sell, offer for sale, or to purchase or install." I in turn asked the agent if we could no longer sell 40" tires. He said it was fine, they're just tires. I replied that they do in fact re-gear the vehicle which alters the RPM at which the vehicle drives down the interstate at 70mph which alters the electronic injection timing and a whole slew of other things. His face turned red and he couldn't answer me. So do I think you are going to get pulled over and fined for what you have done to your truck? Probably not, because they don't even know what they are enforcing. They are cherry picking the low hanging fruit and going for the easy fines which is deletes on newer diesels. When that money runs out, I'm sure they will hunt you down along with the rest of us. This is a money grab and has nothing to do with enforcing laws that protect the environment. The EPA is a self funded 3 letter agency.
