$450 for fuel filter change at dealer on my 2024-3500. I think an oil change quote was $180 on the 2024 and $145 on the 2008 2500 6.7. Portland, OR area dealer.
I once got "pushed" going down the grade from Stovepipe Wells to Panamint Springs in Death Valley. Had just started learning to tow a toyhauler with a 2008 CTD. I started the downgrade too fast, but learned a valuable lesson:
"It is better to be able to be the slowest guy going down a hill...
What does a guy do to preserve these shiny, grossly expensive headlights from exterior deterioration over time? Some kind of wax or what? Thank you.
I'm in process of replacing the "dumb" halogen headlights on my 2008 CTD. I saw what OEM LED projectors cost to replace on my 2024 and my heart...
What is your experience to recommend this brand? Have you used the halogen projector units? They look very cool on the web page, I've just had such bad luck with bulbs and lights not performing or burning out too fast, I'd like a referral from a happy user. Thanks.
I bought a kit to rehab my headlights about a year ago. Worked pretty well, but the haze has returned. I'm getting older and need all the light I can get! Based on experience, would you play with one of the rehab kits, go to someone who specializes in rehab or buy new parts. I'd love...
What brands of bedslides have folks had good experiences? I've got a longbed with a canopy and a slide would sure help out my 69-year old back and two fake knees! I'd like to find one that can extend as far as possible, I'd probably trade weight capacity for extension. Thanks.
I just got back from a 1,400 mile trip in my 2008 2500. Primarily interstate. Had the Banks installed a couple weeks before the trip. I was getting worse fuel mileage than stock, down 1 to 1.5 MPG. Cannot really say there was any positive change in performance, was only towing a raft...
I remember a tire rotation was $95 at my dealer this am on their price board. The $175 oil change was for a diesel as well, a little more oil. So added together, about the same you were originally quoted.
Oil changes used to be a loss leader to build customer loyalty.
Why would you say that?
I'm not looking for your sympathy or am I complaining. I just stated a fact that if you have a new truck,, repairs appear to cost more for the same job.
Had my oil changed at the dealer this am, two knee replacements and my desire to climb under the truck has diminished.... Anyway, today I had the oil changed in my 2008 CTD with Rotella 15-40 and MOPAR filter for $116 USD. I had called the dealer last week to inquire on the price of an oil...
I cannot imagine the war stories your Dad could tell, working within the beast. I bet he get's a lot of satisfaction helping people get a fair deal. I've had a couple warranty issues, where you just end up amazed at the slimy nature of the dealer/manufacturer interface with the customer -...
I've got a 2024. Any reports of problems on the 2024 units? I mean how many years have they been making this motor? I kinda figured they had this stuff figured out by now!
