    Old member, new truck

    Hello. I’m an existing member with a new truck, and I didn’t do an introduction post when I first joined, so I figured I’d do one now. I just got a 2021 1500 Laramie to replace my 2019 1500 Classic Laramie Eco-Diesel that suffered engine failure at 10,000 miles. After the engine was replaced I...

    How many miles have you driven your eco diesel?

    10,041 miles when the main bearings failed. Been sitting at the dealer for five weeks waiting for a new engine.

    Engine trouble

    I’ll see if the dealer can confirm when they do the replacement. But I agree, it doesn’t really matter either way!

    3.0 EcoDiesel Reviews Needed (Real World)

    Engine trouble

    Main bearings failed. Engine toast. New engine coming. Service guy said this is the fifth or sixth of these he’s dealt with. He didn’t say over what time period. I know this is a problem these engines can have, but it’s hard to tell how often it happens. Internet research is scary.

    Engine trouble

    Two things happened today: my truck passed 10,000 miles, and its engine failed. I have a 2019 1500 Classic Laramie with the EcoDiesel. I was towing a boat up a hill when the engine started a loud clattering noise, but there were no warning or check engine lights. I hadn’t noticed any issues...
