- I'm a little upset about this one. I took my 2021 RAM 3500 in for "perform service" message on the dash, and the dealer quoted me $4,000 in repairs! I'm going to DIY for about $350!

My EGR valve looks brand new. Only has 11 miles on it. When you keep emissions parts on a shelf, they last MUCH longer….
Bwahahahaha awesome!! At least you know where it belongs! Haha
Look in your owners manual and you'll find the only thing that needed to be changed was the CCV filter. Ram did away with the requirement to clean the EGR filter when they started using DEF, 2013 as I recall, and the "67,500" service actually jumps up to an even higher interval with the 5th Gens I believe. The actual service manuals have the correct data but the dealers always seem to go with the requirement on the older configurations.
There's no EGR filter. You are referring to the EGR cooler which really gets clogged up on pre-DEF cummins (pre 2013).
I think he probably meant DPF@@wtbman
@@wtbmanthe EGR cooler still get clogged has nothing to do with the def system
@@jamesvuxta8723 2013+ trucks run fewer EGR cycles because they run more SCR/DEF so they don’t clog as often. The EGR maintenance interval mileage is a lot longer on DEF trucks. Therefore newer trucks should have fewer EGR issues.
@@wtbman I believe that was pre-67A recall 🤣
I paid 100k for my 2021 ram 3500 with the black widow edition. It’s only got 41k miles on it and the service engine light comes on! The dealership wanted to charge me 85$ just for diagnostic check. I went to Autozone, within 5 minutes I found out what it was. Damn egr valve! For my engine that thing was 995$ thru Autozone. Can only imagine how much thru the dealership! So glad you made this video. I’m sure mine has even less build up than the one shown. Time to get busy under the hood. Ty for making this video. In my opinion dealerships are out there just to rip you off.
A 2021 with 41k is still under factory warranty. Why would you pay for it?
@@AutoAuctionRebuilds you are correct. I believe we also got the extended warranty. Cleaned out the egr valve but the service engine will not go away despite trying many times to reset it. Also disconnected both batteries for an hour and the light is still there. I don’t trust dealership mechanics but looks like I have no choice.
I would never allow my diesel to go over 5k before giving it an oil change. I don't care what the computer says. Your asking for problems and that's how some tucks get bad reviews. People abuse them until they break then say there truck is a pile of crap.
Take care of your trucks people, oil is cheap your engine and transmission are not.
Thanks for the content.
Amen I do the same. I use t6 what do u use?
I sold my 2019 diesel over 2 years ago, which was $760 a month, and bought a 2003 Duramax for 17k. Zero problems since I bought it 124k miles no Def saved me 8k a year in payments alone. The truck has already paid for itself in payment savings.
Don’t buy a new duracrap are you will be dealing more problems
The only real issue with this gen Duramax are the injectors. Keep your eye on the oil and oil level as the diesel can go down into the crankcase when this problem presents… but otherwise it sounds like you’re winning.
Unless the 2003 Duramax was fitted with an aftermarket exhaust break, you have a lesser truck. Less HP, Less torque, possibly less towing capability. Of course you swapped that for less payments too. For me, the exhaust break is the winner. I can go down a 7& grade towing 11k lbs, set the cruise at 55 and hardly if ever have to touch the brakes. Exhaust brake magic.
Yeah but you are driving a 20 year old truck. My 2020 Ram 3500 will be paid off in 2 years and I’ll be driving a 5 year old truck
Must be at a dealer to let a greenhorn ..screw ya good truck up.....
FYI, chrysler tech here. The "perform service" only means that you need a ccv filter. You don't need the egr cleaning until 120k miles, and even then, they are usually perfectly fine and don't benefit from the service.
@@rticul8862 I got a question that always has multiple answers. What are your thoughts on the fluid flushes on everything? Necessary? Also transmissions. Flushing fluid and filter changes? Good idea or don’t Touch if it isn’t broke? Thanks.
14ooo miles no oil change ? You can do most all mant. Just RUclips it I been doing mine for three years. 👍
Poor engine….sucking in all that soot, what an after-thought the emissions are on this iconic engine. Stripping the life out of it.
Manufacturers and dealers operate in such a way that they try to make it impossible for you to do any maintenance on your vehicle without a headache for you the owner not to mention the rate they charge. Thanks for your videos.
Good job Randy. You saved a lot of money
This will help a lot of people
😊
Problem I see is it voids the factory warranty. I'd love to do my own servicing but I still have 4 years warranty left on my 2020 Kia.
You might also want to check on the bolt that holds the heater grid in the intake manifold. They are known for coming loose and destroying the engine.
Good call! Banks has a cheap solution for that.
Goto GENO’s Garage on google. They have a document on how to check this.
@@christiandulaney1638 I wouldn’t call it cheap haha, maybe cheap when compared to the damage the bolt can cause!
@@Mistro07 right, I think that bolt breaking is mainly banks fear mongering
@@Mistro07agreed! $1000 + is not cheap at our house
Welcome to owning a heavy duty diesel truck! I bought my CCV filter at Autozone. Works great and has a lifetime warranty for $140.00. I’ve already changed it twice for free. I hotshot so I rack up the miles quick. Also I’ve reused my egr gaskets with no issues. Don’t spend money you don’t need to spend.
Thanks again Randy. These videos are great for us, the consumer, to inform us on the hidden costs of owning these new vehicles
The crazy part about my 2021 Ram 3500 HO Mega Cab is the engine bay looks like the day I picked it up. It takes some time to keep things clean but damn this truck engine/bay looks dirty as hell.
Glad to see you’re doing all your own maintenance. I do all mine except the transmission service. I do oil, oil filter, fuel filters, cabin filter, and these types of services myself. No need to spend that kind of money if you can do them yourself. Just keep a record of everything you do and mileage for any warranty stuff if applicable. Thanks for the video.
Unfortunately, you only cleaned about 10% of the entire circuit!!!!!!!!!
Some notes, The CCV will continue trigger perform service if not replaced. it checks pressure, also the EGR valve is not designed to be cleaned on all 6.7 Cummins after DEF system implementation.
good one , from Joseph in Australia I drive a 1987 Toyota land cruiser hj75 diesel truck I do all my own work . i am 70yr s old and I saved so much money, I buy them for about 10,000 dollars and keep them going this one had it 30 years. parts getting hard to find so i picked up a donor car for parts.
Legit got the same message a month ago around the same mileage as you too. Changed the ccv filter and cleared the service message the same way. Now that i now about the ccv cleaning I’ll take care of that too. $2k for those two services is insane. Thanks for the video you explained everything perfectly
Don't think it's Insane.
I thought he said 1300.00
That's all labor cost. Labor is not free in a shop or any shop.
That's why I'm a DYI mechanic. I don't complain about shop labor. I buy parts and do my thing.
I'd buy a Cummins any day, over the other 2 V8 Diesels? After working on a P.O.S. 6.0 Power-Choke, that was done at 150K, the Cummin's is much easier to access main components, and more reliable? A V8 configuration is not as balanced as a straight in-line 6 cylinder? I still think the old 7.3L Power-Stroke is the best diesel Ford ever had?
Great job Randy,I’m going to show the video to my brother as his 2500 Ram diesel has about 50,000 miles.
at around 65K miles he should be getting the same message. It will go into limp mode if not addressed.
Great video!
You showed that this is a straight forward procedure using basic tools. No Witchcraft or Magic involved.
Great job.
I would let the new Ram go and get that pre emissions one. Way cheaper and less B.S. to deal with.
Randy, Thanks for the heads up and the warning to never buy a new truck! I will keep my 2005 3rd gen Laramie.I bought it new and have only have to do very basic maintence on it so far. 154,000 miles on it so far and it run like the day I bought it new. Really hope You sell your truck and get an older one. You will save a lot of time and money. Wish you the best with whatever you decide to do my friend.👍
Leave the receipts in the book as proof the service was done for the next owner. Great job.
My 2016 Ram 3500 is very expensive in maintenance. I do the fuel filters myself ($80) in parts. Oil changes I get done at Jiffy lube because it’s just a pain and messy. The dealer charged me about $1500 fir the EGR cleaning. My heater core went bad. That was $2800 including changing the AC evaporator because why not. The dash is already taken apart and it’s a $180 part. I go through tires every two years because the truck is so heavy, it just eats them up. I’ve tried Toyo, BFG and Michelin. I’m doing the egr myself next time thanks to this video.
Definitely worth cleaning the EGR valve. Look at how clean it is now. Hope you did the other services yourself saving thousands.
My truck is at 267000 and never had the EGR system touched. Haven’t had any issues so must be working ok. In fact my truck has never been to the dealer. Only issue has been turbo actuator, changed in my driveway. This has been the best truck I’ve ever owned. Also, buy all your filters right from the Cummins dealer. They are cheaper than Mopar.
What year is your truck ?
@@Elenrro 2014
I got a 2012 ram 2500 with only right now 74000 miles on it and no def
I just bought my Cummins in December of 2023, BUT ! i watched your video before i bought the truck and feel confident that i am competent enough as a novice diesel enthusiast to get the job done.
It's Friday, May 24th. I'll be using your video as a guide. And follow up with you afterward.
Great video. It really makes one stop and think about how much is not being said at these dealerships when selling used cars. I've heard some stories that have blown me away just so a dealer can flip a vehicle. "Buyer beware"!
138K and I've never cleaned my ERG on my 2013. No one ever stated at my dealership that in needed to be done. Yes, I have my truck serviced by the dealership when I can't get to it. Good vid! Thanks for posting!
That's alot of dough brother just for a little bit of work. Garages today charge an arm and a leg just for a little bit of work. It's best to do the work yourself and to know how to do it. That's key.👍✌️👌
Bought my 2007.5 Ram 2500 from a Dodge dealer with 68K miles. Noticed the perform service message. Did some research learned of the 67.500 mile service. The dealer said I was SOL. So I did the service myself,cost about $200 in parts and 4 hours of my labor. Wasnt to bad of a job and everything is on top of the engine. On the earlier trucks its more involved sint the EGR cooler has to be cleaned too. Been 2 years and im at 82K miles now.
I bought a 06 3500 Cummins new. Still love it. It has none of that crap under the hood 👍💪🏻🇺🇸
Hi Randy it’s so nice to see you working on the ram you need to flip it before you lose money on it you have the right idea buy a older car save money all the best from the UK
As a long time subscriber we all know the way you keep choping & changing your personal vehicles, that you don't hold on to any vehicle for long, it's just the way you roll. ☘️
i think cummins doesnt include egr cleaning anymore on the newer trucks as a recommended service. they started in with the first 6.7s but some dealerships are probably looking to make more money and/or have not updated their service recommendations.
I'm glad i watched this video. I just bought my first Cummins. I started watching the channel when you picked up the red 2nd gen at auction. I've also got one of those. I bought my truck with 58k on the clock and asked the dealership if they would perform the 60k service which they declined to do i wanted the truck and jumped on it. this service is due now thank you for this video i know it's a little older but it's definitely helping guys like me.
Thanks Randy.
Diesels are NOT cheap! I’ve got a 2016 ecoDiesel….and early on, she was expensive as well. But the last few years, she’s been a good rig. Thanks for the education….
Also, the EPA requirements force dealers to follow the procedures. If they don’t it will effect their relationship with big brother!
I knew about all the “service” epa stuff. In 22 I ordered a 6.4 hemi 3500 dually. It does fine with a 16k trailer. Fuel mileage is actually not too bad
Randy, you don't work on cars remember. Yea right. You are on the right track my friend! Good job!! Saving money is the key to success.
I could not agree with you more. I bought the same truck with 72000 on it and out about 6000 miles on it and got the same massage. Dealer told me that it would cost me $2500 and I only had it for 2 months. Thank for the video
Did it all on my 2013 and saved a ton. It drives like a dream.
Just fyi and you may have already found this out but the Fleetguard CCV filter can be purchased on Amazon for $60 at the time of writing this. I was going to do the same thing with buying it from the dealer but decided to shop around and am thankful I did!
You can always fix it! I wonder what the next work truck will be! Great video as always keep it up randy!!!!
I was at my local dealership last week I was planning to do a coolant flush. I bought the coolant no big deal easy cheapy but I asked for a thermostat that almost made me pass out $480 freaking dollars just because it says Cummins in it. Wowww. I still have chills.
Dealerships are pretty much a scam. I worked for a Ford dealership and the markups were ridiculous. That said, if it were me, I'd sell the truck and buy something for cash just to get out from under the payments. Of course, the truck is super nice and if I could afford the payments, I'd probably keep it.
Isn't it amazing how much they charge for something you can do in less than a days time?
Randy, you have beautiful cars for daily driving, you should buy that dually.
That dealership knew it needed those services and I wouldn’t doubt the guy traded it in cause they hit him up for it too. They didn’t do it because of costs and sold knowing it would throw that code and you’d have to bring it back in for those services. Happens all the time anymore. Back in the day the dealers would go through a used vehicle and do any service before selling it. Not anymore
I have a 2012 3500, as soon as the warranty came of it all the pollution control crap came off also. Got better fuel mileage, felt like I had a little more power today it has just over 500,000 km and running like a well oiled Rolex
Oiy.. Genos Garage for the CCV filter. Filter and EGR gasket kit $183 or $115 for the filter. Replace every 30k miles or so. 440k miles and never have had to do my EGR. 2008 6.7.
Thanks for showing people how to do this procedure. A little more research would let you know that that perform device message will pop up about every 60k mile so that the crankcase ventilation filter will get changed. The dealer will rob you blind. I bought my 2020 Ram 3500 with 40k miles on it in April of 2022. I currently have just over 207,000 miles on it. I’ve changed that filter every time the message comes on. If you buy your own filters and do your own service, you will not spend near what the stealership will charge you.
I’d say keep it. It will pay for itself if you have it as a work truck.
Get another TRX that was the best all around truck
You should keep a or that heavy duty truck for pulling cars around and have an older truck, like the silver 3500 dodge dually in a previous walk around video, that you can make videos with by fixing it all up. I personally enjoy older vehicles, pre 2020, 2000-2010 vehicles most are easy & kinda fun to wrench on.
Welcome to my road. Bought a 2010 Dodge 2500 6.7 in 2011. I owned it for 3 years and it ran just about perfect UNTIL it got to 100k miles. Then the AC condenser leaked and that cost $2300 to repair. About 6 weeks later, the main ECU went caput. Another 2500 down the drain. After that one I got rid of it
Grate informative video Randy. I'm glad my 09 ram 3500 has none of that emissions crap on it no DEF or a $10,000 exhaust to deal with and with it being a 6 speed manual gets 20 mpg city
Just to let you know. If you check your owner manual. You don't need to touch the egr valve for this service. You only need to swap out the ccv filter. The dealership was hostelling you services you don't need.
the cost feels out of whack though. $2000? So $300-ish and 8 hours-ish of labor? The tech's at Ram probably do this job in 4 hours. What's labor these days? $150 an hour? At any rate, I am SUPER thankful that you made this video and taught me to do this myself. You are a bright light in my day.
$150.00 per hour. Last time I checked
Got into heated debate with dealer about that egr service....it's not recommended until after 120k. The ccv yes at 60k intervals. Pre 2012 models yes egr cleaning every 60k
Great video and I'm sure it will help me somewhere down the road. I'm heading out tomorrow on an 800 mile road trip to buy a gently used 2008 Ram 3500 SLT 6.7 2 WD single rear wheel. I've been looking for a tow vehicle for our travel trailer for over a year now and this may finally be the best one. Dealership has been very helpful sending pics and videos. Said the last owner kept it in a garage and never towed with it.
Pick up trucks are expensive to maintain properly, but in my opinion the life can be decades upon decades long. Long term value.
It is business but I'm with you. 2,000 bucks, for that!?! Talk about robbery without a ski mask lol. Good video!
I just got took on what you're talking about .i went in for a check engine light . And they told me every little little issue they could find I just met the guy. He seemed to be a pretty good younger person With a fairly new Shop. I told 'em to do what he thought would be best for the truck .man the list went on and on 125 to take off a small grill 3 bolts 200 for a bg battery care witch is to small little pads under the clamps and yep the cv filter swap $646 fuel filters $ 376 $450 to hook up the ob2 scanner it's said shops do that to ppl .
Also was told of a $1700,00 bill to service CV filter and EGR at dealer. Came home ordered filter on Amazon $28.00. EGR cleaned with simple green in half an hour. Money in pocket - $ 1655.00.
You didn't pocket anything. You only spent $28.00 period. Just like the guy who services their own vehicle.
It's all on paper. The only money is parts and sweat you do or you tell your buddy to do.
I've been a DYI mechanic for 40 years.
I don't call a shop for labor prices and toot my horn saying a saved $$$$$$..
I prefer to smile and drive my vehicles that I can fix them in my driveway. That's the icing on my cake.
Delete the EGR system and keep your factory tune or, as you said, get a pre emission diesel vehicle. By the way, I’d recommend you replace the intake grid heater. That’s a major issue on the Cummins and when it fails its ruins the engine.
I have a 21 5500 I do everything!!! In fact I learned for that reason!! CCV , egr cleaning ,differential, transfer case( super easy) ,I upgraded my water pump ,I do all my oil and filters,brakes ,etc ,man i can't tell you how much I have saved
Your my kinda guy sir. I do my own stuff too
Here here! Welcome to the club!
Looks simple enough. Only have 13000 on my 2021. I did notice you were engaging the preheat when starting. If you push your start button twice, it will start with no preheat. I assume from your video you are not where I am (Alaska) although I do not engage preheat in summer. That under nut of the pre-heat cable connector is a huge killer of these motors. I plan on installing the Banks kit that will eliminate that bolt. It seems simple as most Banks stuff is designed DIY. Great video!
I’ve got a manual 5 speed 2005 dodge ram 2500 5.7 gas. This truck is awesome!! The only serious thing I’ve ever had to do on this truck is new clutch and a fuel pump. I change the oil myself and the plugs. It does have a leak in the exhaust manifold however but I’m not concerned with it because it’s never gotten any worse.
Randy, I have yet to see a video of yours that I didn’t enjoy, and I watch all of them. Please keep doing what you’re doing my friend.
I have a 2005 with a 59 Cummins 300,000 miles runs beautiful
i just bought and installed a genuine fleetguard crankcase ventilation filter and installed it. it took 20 minutes altogether and the ebay cost for the ccv filter was 30.00 including tax and shipping. the gaskets at napa are about 10-15.00.
CCV filters are due every 68,500 miles. Trucks are rock solid but as with every vehicle you must keep up with the maintenance
Hey Randy, I just wanna let you know that I watched your video for today about you make meetings your truck. You did a awesome job. I can’t wait to see the next video that you got coming up most likely tomorrow. Have a good day. Talk to you later.
My dad always taught me if the steering does not pull. Do not do a front end alignment. I'm surprised you paid them for an oil change. And a cabin filter? But honestly I don't know how complicated they've made. It become so awesome video. Thank you sir!
If he paid $150.00 for oil change at the dealership. It's a bargain.
My daughter has her Toyota trucks serviced. Oil changes only. I do the regular services. Like brakes and rotors or shocks at my home.
Randy better buying older easy to work on won't loose value and better built and will last longer
Good job Randy. Always check other videos to make sure you're doing the process correctly. You can see in the video that you're calling BS on what the dealership suggested. Also... you need to clean your engine bay man. Don't care it's a work truck. Peace of mind...Just saying 😌
When we do an EGR service we also drain the cooling system, pull the EGR cooler, and soak it... There is a lot of crap in the EGR cooler. If that dealer is like our dealer, then that is why it costs so much for the service in labor anyhow.
Your video was very helpful and informative one of the best DYI’s I’ve seen yet.
Last time I was at the stealership they took 6 hours to replace my drag link and do an alignment. Dirty little secret: they don’t replace the EGR. The stealership just cleans it and reinstalls.
Excellent intelligent information! I have 2004.5 H.O 3 gen Dodge Cummins. Smog exempt and the crank case filter only $50. I change mine every 50,000 miles. Thank for sharing.
The CCV is $36 shipped from Amazon looks exactly like the one I pulled out, the EGR cleaning is simple unbolt clean and but back, just need new gaskets, all simple maintenance for the regular guy
People always trade their vehicles in, just in time for major tune-ups, services, needing new tires, etc. Just so they don't have to pay the outrageous service bills, when service is due by mileage usually? Never really thought about the services due, being the reason the vehicle get the boot?
Always an explanation why the previous owner got rid of it too. Never forget that.
Randy I don't know if you looked it up or not but anyways the ccv filter is supposed to be replaced at right around the mileage you are at now and same with the egr valve cleaning the perform service message is supposed to come on right around 67,500 miles so this is normal maintenance I could be wrong but I did a quick google search and that's what came up but do understand why you were upset though about the cost.
Not on 2019 and up ccv 75 k egr does not need to be cleaned on 2019 and up.
Even (some) fleets are agreeing with the assessment that modern diesel light duty trucks (technical definition includes most F450 and under) are more costly in the the total cost of ownership category. Our local utility did a 24 month head to head on service trucks and even EXCLUDING downtime for unexpected repairs. The costs per 100 K miles was 3% less for the identical gas equivalents. They had particularly scathing opinion in the back-up documentation from the fleet logistics manager regarding the diesel-burners unexpected down time % but they left it out of the official report in case it was brand/generation/model specific.
Cummins has stated that the ‘19 + EGR valve cannot be disassembled for cleaning. Only the CCV filter can be done for the 77.5 service
But Randy you don’t ever work on anything!!!! Lol. Great job as always.
Thanks again Randy. These videos are great for us, the consumer. 😃😃😃
If your going to complain about maintenance ride a bike.
Great video. The problem here was not knowing the services on the vehicle being perchance. But the dealership should have said we are going to include this service when you reach this miles. Pues, you could have saved more by doing the oil change yourself.Great video keep making those to help other understand that they can do this anytime . 👍🏻👍🏻 Note always look for the parts in other places. Just ask the dealer parts department for the list of parts
I remember way back yonder(like 3 years ago) when i had to change my maf sensor & clean the Egr Valve on my Jetta, the dealer wanted close to $400(mechanic rate + parts) did it myself under 2 hours & saved ALOT OF $
Great DIY video Randy. Saved yourself a lot of money. If i was you I’d buy a diesel with cash. Those payments are crazy! 😮
Not sure, but my diesel mechanic said the EGR cleaning service is unnecessary for the newer trucks. I have a 2017 Ram with 150,000 miles on it and it runs strong. Mostly highway driving and a lot of towing. Never cleaned the EGR cooler or valve. The CCV filter is super easy and so is the EGR valve. But there is no required maintenance for cleaning EGR valve that I’m aware of. The oil change and fuel filter change costs me $240. The dealer is rippin ya for sure. If you aren’t towing a lot then the Diesel probably isn’t worth it. I haven’t deleted mine but I want to.
Hi randy your extension for sockets is little wobbly . And I think that silver truck you showed in beginning of video looks good to replace the ram . And thanks for saving money for many people
Put another way, how much could you have funded your retirement with had you not bought all those new cars only to trade them away months later?
Not sure what you got for $800, but I'd recommend never allowing the dealer to do any work on your truck unless it's under warranty. And definitely shop prices on the parts. RockAuto and Amazon. Also replace your grid heater asap.
That's why people opt for delete the truck. In the long run, you recover your money, no spending in parts.
The emissions crap on these new Diesels really kills the whole point of getting a Diesel. I still drive my 1991 F250 with the 7.3 IDI and have no plans to get rid of it. I don't drive it a lot but when I need a truck, it's there and always ready for work.
That EGR valve is good Randy. I have seen worse.
I have a 2019. My Perform service came on at 6500. The dealer wanted 400 for the CCV service. I just changed mine. The cost of the CCV was not in my ballpark. I watch a You tuber and found out the filter was available on Amazon for $30 bucks.
So, now you know about the service requirements. I read lots of comments from guys who praise their Cummins engines, but strangely never mention the service costs.
First class video, can’t believe you filmed all this by yourself!
I think an owner(the one before you) who’s willing to drive with mismatched tires is also going to be skipping services and skimping on quality parts. I hope that you don’t have any further problems!
Screw that , you should buy that dually :)
Dealer shop rates are the highest you will find so that's not surprising. I'd look to do anything that doesn't involve the warranty with an smaller repair shop.
