I've seen info about a cam timing problem, but don't know if it was resolved or when.(quoted from post at 11:53:47 06/14/19) There?s a 2015 low mileage one at a Ford dealer near here,I?m just wondering if they are good engines or if they?re poison?
(quoted from post at 12:29:12 06/14/19) My dad has one and would never buy anything else again.
The first year ones had problems but after that it was resolved.
Around here they get something deleted on them or there nothing but trouble.
I think it has the pollution thing deleted. My dads was in limp mode all the time.
Got the $2500 delete done and has no issues since. 38 miles per gallon when the go on trips.

People have to come to realize this is 2019 with Tier IV emissions and diesel fuel costing more than gasoline per gallon.
Some people still think "diesel is status".
This is not the 1990 s glory days when any diesel pickup was superior to any gasoline pickup .
The direct injection gasoline engines have high compression and operate in diesel mode most of the time .
Why did GM develop the 6.6 direct injection gas for heavy pickups and medium duty trucks . In some operating environments the gasser will cost less to operate and has less down time/loss of production than a diesel.
A diesel by design operates best in HD applications at full load and at max rated rpm for weeks or months at a time . Fully warmed up and burning clean.
A gasser by design and the lighter fuel is more tolerant of putting around stop start operation typical of pickups, delivery vehicles and light duty highway applications .

Buick, do you know if the new 6.6L gas is a revamped 6.0L, or a ground up new design? I've heard rumors it utilizes a 6.0L base with a longer stroke, but haven't been able to verify. I have the 6.0L in my 2011 3500HD, and absolutely love it, so not sure I'd upgrade to the 6.6L if it's a major departure from the 6.0L.
Thanks. Where is here?(quoted from post at 14:26:36 06/14/19) Yes here it still does.
What problems ? Just use the proper low ash motor oil .(quoted from post at 11:48:53 06/14/19) You need to look at all the problems the direct injection gas engines are having...
The 1985-1987 Jeep Cherokee and Comanche XJ used a Peugeot-designed 2.1L turbodiesel I-4. 85 hp and 132 lb-ft
(quoted from post at 20:12:40 06/14/19) " gas is cheaper than diesel" - not here. Gas DOWN from $1.59 to $ 1.44 - diesel $1.36. Got my bum to the wall.

Hard to believe that.
Maybe price of diesel is lower than gas if your buying dyed fuel.
(quoted from post at 05:18:36 06/14/19) There is a good reason its at the Ford dealer I would suspect. Traded it in on a better truck/engine....FORD!
