oooof, can't say iv'e ever heard of that one yet something new pops up here everyday.

 

and maybe new piston return springs as long as she is there?

 

I really like the new piston return spring they put on mine!!rofrof

 

Are you sure they didn't mean the EGR cooler?
I think it is supposed to be serviced, along with the EGR valve at around 65K.
Maybe "boiling" it is how they clean it out.
Don't get me wrong, I am not too happy with most dealerships, but maybe this is just a mix-up of terminology.
Still, seems awfully expensive.

Just lose the egr and dpf and worries go away...for the most part.

 

Thanks for the replies, I told my buddy when he takes it in friday to explain what they ment, either way he isnt doing it...

 

Any news back from your buddy after visit to dealer?

 

I was going to say to have the exhaust fluid checked too but that one is a reality now hahaha

Chris

 

No, but he does need to get the CCV filter replaced soon if he hasn't done it already. IIRC, it's scheduled for 67,500 miles.

 

Yeah they boil the egr valve and the egr cooler to clean it. I know one guy had to have the entire egr system cleaned and it cost him 1800.

 

Make sure he checks his muffler bearings as well....

 

And blinker fluid. If it runs out you need to bleed it manually. 2009 and up has a self priming lift pump for it now. Waiting for the aftermarket to get one on my 2008.

 

Hey guys i work at fleet maintenance and the EGR valves and intake/ grid system get awfully carboned up if your truck sees lots of idle time like my fleet. My trucks are all 2012 6.7 and have less than 10k. Below are pictures of the intake as it was taken apart. 9951 mileage. I am in NYC so delete kits are not an option due to DOT. Any advice?

 

Nice 710 stick!
I unplugged my egr valve, under exhaust braking the egr valve would open up. My suggestion would be to find some thin steel shims to truly block it off. Your pics are making me wonder if I need to pull my intake off & see about cleaning it out.

 

Are your drivers using the idle up feature? 1,000 + RPM's might help.

 

you could do an efi live just to delete the egr but leave it on the motor, search stealth egr delete. all appears to be there and working but really isnt lol. just a thought to save your engine and turbo!
