    This is likely a faulty actuator that has the turbo vane position stuck in exhaust brake mode. You can replace just the actuator easily, and while doing so, check that the vanes move freely on the turbo to rule out the turbo itself as the culprit. If you are in a jam and need to drive 1) drain coolant 2) unplug the actuator on the turbo 3) remove the actuator and manually put the vane position somewhere in the middle 4) reinstall actuator and leave it unplugged 5) refill coolant. This somewhat converts the VGT to a fixed geometry turbo but your boost will be low and it will be a little bit of a dog to drive as well as no exhaust brake. It'll get you around for a while and won't hurt anything to buy you some time.

    I understand I’m very late to this video. If this ever happens to anyone you you need to get the truck home or to a shop, you can pull the VGT fuse under the hood. The turbo will go to fully open vane position and stay there. It’ll be a little smokey in lower RPMs but will sound like a 5.9 and drive like a big turbo 5.9 with inadequate fuel. It will be a little doggy in the lower rpm’s but it’s safe to drive that way. You need to pull the fuse before the vanes stick closed though (like this video.) They normally give you some warning before failing completely.

    All the new “clean diesels” do this bullshit…. Let’s just go back to 12V Cummings and 7.3 powerstrokes

      Oh yeah let’s roll the clock back and cut our power down by a 5th… as if they never have problems. Go stroke it somewhere else.
      For the record I love them both. But it’s absolute nonsense to say they are just superior. Also nothing about dudes truck is a clean diesel. No emissions components. Nothing clean about it. Not hating though mine is the same

      The turbo failed that's all the vgt was probably stuck closed cause of the carbon. It's deleted so it ain't a "clean diesel" anymore. It ain't the engine. Stop making a fool of yourself

    I had it cleaned. It was back to this 3 days after the $300 dollar dodge cleaning. They also told me if I had ran my exhaust break it won't soot up. Well I bought this truck new. The exhaust break was always on if the truck was running. These turbos are crap. They also had a very high drive pressure. This is why the 6.7s have headgasket issues. Not to mention stock studs are weak.
