I look down and spit and spit on the ground every time my truck is mentioned. I'm sorry people but this thing is a POS !
Todays Codes: (cuz we gotta have codes everyday)
P0380: always have this one but the glowplugs are good.
C0550: Cuz a tow driver squished the wiring to the right rear ABS
P0404: I'm told a $55 sensor to fox no biggie
FRESH ONES:
P0843
P0700
Tranny went into limp mode "Shift Range Prohibited". I cleared the codes and drove the truck. Are these just more nuisance codes or is there something of immediate concern?
P01404: I'm told same fix for P0404
The speedo sticks on the freeway every time I travel over about fifty or so miles. There are like two dozen guys on e-bay making a living rebuilding those clusters for about $120 a pop.
Now I need your opinions. Is this bs something that just goes with territory on the trucks or is mine truly just a freak POS? It has 118k on it. Will I ever be able to catch up on this or is it just the way it is? If I upgrade to a later model (LLY,LLM) will this shit go away? Or are these things like Jaguars and you have to dick with them? I just want to fire up my truck and go...I'm not into the code chasing thing anymore..it's no fun anymore (LOL).
I bought the truck to tow my 36' fifth wheel but the trailer is pretty much stationary in an RV resort right now. So I don't plan on towing heavy stuff anymore. Basically I could use just a HD 6.0 or even a 1/2 ton. I use a truck for homeowner stuff and recreation that's it.
OK...do we ever catch up on this stuff? If not do I dump it for newer Duramax or a gas truck?
Thanks For Your Opinons,
Larry
