EcoDiesel Buyers Guide

[Jzram]

Hi guys,

I am considering a '16 Ram 1500 w/ the EcoDiesel. Truck has 62,000 miles. Is there a buyers guide for this engine? Anything to watch out for?

Thanks!

I own the 2016 Ecodiesel and love it. There were many recalls on that truck. I'd make sure all of them have been taken care of first. Do you mind if I ask how much they are asking for it?

I am getting it for $23,500 Canadian which is $16,700 USD.

I am so tempted on upgrading my 17 RCSB 3.6 to a Crew Cab Classic, they are selling for under $25k new here. Just not sure if it's worth it. Good luck!

I have a 2016 Eco Diesel Big Horn Air suspension ,93K use it to tow my Trailer still under Power warranty which is expiring in 6K Big Horn
for last one year this truck has been a mess

Fixing ABS light cost 1700$ last December
Fixing couple of other item 1400$ 20 month ago
Differential Bearing was replaced 15 days ago Under warranty
Engine Light for part replacement Under warranty Sensor issue and seal Leakage at the Manifold

In the end flr last 30 days this truck has lots of dealership trips I am thinking about Trading it in to get an HEMI or F150 as a last option as I think after Warranty It will be a Pain
Dealer mechanic has been telling me that it is not the best engine and you will have these issues after the warranty.

I am getting 22K AS A TRADIN VALUE from Chrysler WHICH is not bad


All prices are in CAD

+1 on the recall history. Even with the Eco extended warranty repairs were getting too frequent and expensive.

I got tired of the issues to and they gave me 24k for my 2014 (!) and I do like my limited.
