[QUOTE="JMJ Farms, post: 1513590, member: 24583"] I can’t answer that with certainty. But here’s my educated guess. The various exhaust components, namely the DPF, restricts enough airflow that you end up with carbon buildup on/in the actuator and then the turbo. They told me that it possibly would only need the wastegate cleaned. Knew I wouldn’t be the lucky. I do know that it’s a result of exhaust system components. DEF also not working at the moment. My original post was a little misleading. The part supplier that the diesel shop is taking their sweet time. They are actually putting the turbo on next week. Power is way off when towing. Took it to RAM dealership and they quoted $8k for a turbo. I told them their breath stank. That’s highway robbery. $4300 made my head hurt. But what do you do? $4300 or $60k. I’m gonna fix it and delete it. 140k miles and I should have already deleted it. I honestly believe that if I had deleted it at the end of warranty that the turbo would have never failed. [/QUOTE]
