Selling my cummins as I've had a lot of problems with it and feel a fresh starts needed. Theres a 2013 duramax that's about my price range. Any opinions on these trucks
Ya I imagine it will definitely need to be deleted. This one I'm lookin at has bout 93k and looks to be bone stockI've got an 11 Dmax that hasn't had any problems since I deleted the DPF & DEF systems 150,000 miles ago, in fact, I'm still on the original rear brakes at 245,000 miles.
Is yours deleted?Mine has been good. Just be aware it has the disintegrating cp4 fuel pump
Since 95,000 miles I’ve been running an 8 oz bottle of OptiLube XPD at every fillup to keep the CP4 well lubed.Mine has been good. Just be aware it has the disintegrating cp4 fuel pump

I’m running a Fass 150 lift pump on mine.Prob going to add an air dog lift pump also
I used to get it directly from OptiLube with a $4.25 flat fee from the VW TDI forum, but OptiLube doesn’t ship direct anymore, so I get a gallon from either Amazon or Ebay whoever is cheaper at the time. For the first order get the pump and the 2 - 8 oz empty bottles. Then after that just get the large bottle, 1, 5, or 55 gallon drum.Mine is a 2013, love it.
Where did or do you get that? I may need to start being preventative with my CP4

I hear if that pump goes it’s a 9k repair
I had a 2007 Chevy 2500 Duramax/Allison and only replaced one glowplug in 67,000 miles. I'd still have it today if it wasn't totaled in an accident. I took the insurance money and bought a 2016 Chevy 3500 Duramax/Allison dually. I drive that now and haven't had any problems at 26,000 miles. I love both trucks.
The Allison trans has a spin on oil filter, which I don't think the other transmissions have.
The 10 speeds aren't ACTUALLY Allisons. They are made by GM and to GM specs but Allison reviews the trans and the design before licensing their name for them. It's actually an overly beefed up version of the 10 speed found in almost all rear and all wheel drive GM and Ford cars and trucks.The past Allisons have the spin-on trans fluid filter.
The new 2020 Ten Speed doesn't. $12 at Napa, don't lose the magnet that sits on top.
I'm told the 2017 and newer Dmaxs don't have the Bosch fuel pump that grenades.
Dunno if the Opti-lube-XPD should still be added.
Yep the guy I talked to bought the truck used and said 3 months in pump took a shit and scattered metal shavings through the whole fuel system..... I think that lawsuit should go in favor of the owners...that a Hugh bill to fork out for a design flaw IMO..It is. I keep an eye on the class action lawsuit but haven’t seen anything new. Most of the diesel places have a complete kit to purchase that has all the parts needed if it happens.
None of the w1000’s are true Allison’s but they are outstanding.The 10 speeds aren't ACTUALLY Allisons.

Yes would like to here about it. If my dmax needs to be put down looking for AlternativesWhat's wrong with the cummins? What year?
Ok thanks. That's what I'm lookin forI’d look for for a clean 7.5- 10 lmm.
Pretty much same body style as a 13 but no cp4 issues and no def fluid.
