  1. My dealer also just came out of an audit. We had a sit down with a few warranty reps. that came up from the U.S. And, ofcourse, we are high in diesel engine and driveability. The twist was that he said that he overlooks 6.0 warranty, as they are aware that it is not the most trouble free engine on the market, and that he can see that we are a dumping ground for most of the other dealers in our area that are certified enough to sell the trucks, but turn around and tell their customers they can't fix them. He did also say that if we only did a small volume of diesel work, and were not a commercial dealer (which we are), he may not have been as forgiving. I guess we just got lucky.

  2. Hi everyone, first time poster, long time lurker.

    I thought I'd add my biggest brainfart in the past while so others don't feel so bad.

    When I'm air testing a pick-up, I normally apply my air through the ICP port, but last week I was working on a tow truck that had a hydraulic pump in the way of the ICP, so I applied my air to the port on the pump. Listening through the oil filler, I found my leak to be on the right side, so I proceeded to remove the PIA pump and the rocker cover, and reapplied air pressure to the pump port... without reinstalling the ICP sensor! Long story short, I was covered in oil from head to toe, filled the school bus that was being worked on beside me with oil inside and out... And the problem is, I'm sure I'll do it again one day...
