    Lol I have 237614 and going up. Only issue this truck has had from day one is a turbo actuator. Yes I have the 68rfe. I change both transmission filters every year along with the fluid, has a trailer behind it 3/4 of the time. Plan on running this truck to damn near million before I’m done with it..

    Bought a deleted truck in Texas … lots to learn … I’m rolling with it , it’s driving great . Still worried about that fuel rail heater bolt … might get the banks set up. 2010 2500 with 180k 🤷‍♂️

    Oil temp is fine
    My 18 runs the same since new has 170k now. If you still have a egr cooler check it. Mine caused mine to lose coolant at around 140k. The oil is from when they changed the filter. If you don’t use a filter plug they spill when you slide it out.

      I don’t want to delete it until warranty is up. Is deleting it necessary to get that many miles out of it ?

    I want a 2014 ram 2500 and if the truck isnt deleted when i buy it thats the first thing im doing. Delete and tune the motor to be able to accommodate its new running conditions. A deleted truck and an emissions choked out crapbox are 2 completely different animals. Its not difficult to do at all mind you, just takes a little bit of work fine tuning the motor so it can run at its best settings. Me, im gonna be daily driving mine and as time progresses ill be pulling things pretty often with it. As a result, ill tune the truck accordingly.

    I checked 997 turbo yesterday, I asked if the price is negotiable, he said no. But I found few things bad allready! Right on the spot. The wing Wont go up, the cup holders are broken, needs front lip, one of the seats handle is broken so they don't fold. And I did not take it for a spin so who knows what else, car has 86k miles. I'm sure they can go lower on price. I think I'd wait another year and get 2013 + GT-R with low miles. I want a rocket ship... And rear seats so our son can enjoy it too and bigger trunk for groceries. Just been thinking about rs6 avant more and more. Ugh allready at 115k , maybe in 2 years they will dip in price

      You should expect to replace the transmission before the engine. If you replace it, look into upgrading it. It's like the cummins is amazing and they pair it with a transmission that just barely do the thing. Mine is at 158k and it seems to shift hard into 2nd and 4th gears
