    Cleaned EGR, CEL still on!

    Well thanks for the help but we must two different systems. Unless there is a vacuum system that controles the electric valve because mine only has a wire running to it. And yeah I plan on just running w/o the egr but I want to fine out why the EGR CEL is on because I hear that it could be...

    Cleaned EGR, CEL still on!

    What else could it be? How often does the solenoid go bad? Can I check it's function by just putting 12v to the terminals, or will I fry something? I would hate to replace the $180 unit if it's not the problem! Sooner or later I'll do the GED but it's still nice to know it work and I have to get...

    how to replace egr valve on a 2.8 crd 05?

    I just took mine off because my cel is on, it only took about 45 min to get it off. If I have to do it again (cel is still on) it will take half that, it's not that bad as long as you have the right tools because it is a tight spot! I split it in half and let the valve soak in parts cleaner. The...

    Rip/Crack in intake Boot!!!

    I was thinking about doing that, but I figured It would cost as much of not more then the factory part. I ordered one today, $51 and 4 days since its coming from the west coast.... about what I assumed it would be. I temp fixed it with about an half roll of electrical tape. Thanks for your help!

    ABS sensor

    I need a LF ABS sensor, I have never had such a problem finding a such a simple part! None of the local part stores carry it and most cannot even order it! The dealer can order it, but what a pain! I can't justify replacing a hub thats not bad so I don't want to order one. It looks to me like it...

    Compression Questions

    No its not running bad, I have just been noticing some smoke under light acceleration. My F250 PSD doesn't smoke near as much under light acc, and it would just be good to know.

    Compression Questions

    I want to check the compression on my 05, I know you have to get to the GLow plugs but I don't know where to find a tool or what numbers the compression should be at. Also wondering how much air should be exiting the oil fill, when I turned the oil cap over and set it on the fill the pressure...

    Alternator clutch

    I just had the same problem, I have never seen a decoupler used for something like this. I got mine from IAT and it worked great.

    Rip/Crack in intake Boot!!!

    Yesterday I took off my EGR because I was pulling an EGR code and for the heck of it I checked my intake boot and cleaned it. I noticed a large rip in the boot where it connects to the turbo. I would love to just get a better aftermarket one, but my guess is only stock will be available. Any...

    05 CRD Turbo Leaking Oil Help.

    Hi, I have had my 05 CRD for a few months now and When I got it I checked for leaks of any kind and I don't think this one was there a while ago. I should have taken picture, but I looked up at the turbo and I saw a line that is going back into the block and it was soaked in oil. I followed the...

    how to stop the Noise from the rear glass latch??

    I took the panel off and had my girlfriend drive around with me in the back so I could try and find out what was doing it. It seems to be the part of the lock that pushes the latch down to open the glass. Now if I mess with it enough I'm sure I could stop it but I figured I would ask and see if...
