| RE: CM871 mistake Regardless what you do egr tuneup is needed - clean intake, egr cooler, replace imap and back pressure sensors with genuine brand new ones. Then look up the filter cans, was there any soot on tailpipe side? If yes then filters are toast. Only proper solution is new genuine dpf. If it is not sooty you can try your luck with having dpf dry cleaned in a kiln. Pressure washer willl wreck dpf, profession wet cleaning too. If you happen to live in Africa or other developing parts of the world with high sulphur diesel you can mandate'd he truck. Since high sulphur diesel will damage those filters and finnicky systems no matter what and it is legal to do so there and it is better for environment since when sulphur reacts with those catalysts and dpf s there will be sulphuric acid formed and that will cause acid rains. That case pull the programming and maybe somebody trusted from here can do the programming . How rest of the truck looks like? Since wiring loom on engine was gone, most likely truck has rust issues and also there will be lots of faults on chassis wiring side too. What about brakes? How much for new genuine truck brand brake drums/discs shoes/pads? Has the engine ever been overhauled? If not you are looking to spend 20-40k on repairs in a reputable shop. If engine was overhauled then most likely it was not done correctly and you still have to spend more money than the truck is worth. Is it worth it to spend lots of money on a endless money pit truck? Newer truck with less issues is CHEAPER in the long run. If buying new truck for daily trucking does not make financially sense then something is wrong with the business. New truck has to be profitable to make it worth, if you can buy used and know how to fix things yourself you can come up ahead cost wise. Finding good quality workshop who knows what to look for and when to replace is not easy and is like finding a needle in the haystack for most people. | |||
