are you still leaning toward either loose injector or bad cups??
-
If loose injector cup is made of copper so it's done for either way and how many problem d12 has with cups it's got to be cups that's what I would do first I have yet to see one volvo new or old to not have any issues with cups andI see them all day eeveryday so it's a lot of trucks new ones with stainless steel if cup is bad injector Is done to old ones with copper don't have the issue
Helowrenchturn2 Thanks this. -
I might call them back and tell them to just go ahead and replace cups to see what happens
-
So, I'm not sure what's going on. They called this morning and told me that they put air in the cylinders and found 1&4 passing into crankcase. Yesterday they said the compression test showed 4&6 bad and the rest were near 100%. Offered me a rebuild for $20k. Lol
-
That's ###### up I don't know who they have working on this #### or if they just want to make money with this kind of oil consumption that engine should not have any issues at all at least that will be the first one I see that doesn't use oil but has bad compression it doesn't make any sense to me at all. And 20k for in frame sounds high but they are a dealer anyway. I don't know man this is going to be a tough call to make I think it's getting harder and harder to find good honest mechanics everyone is out to make money I had a guy last week that overhauled a mack cuz dealer suggested it and all the time it was a bad egr cooler it's getting ridiculous
Sani101 and Helowrenchturn2 Thank this. -
And after 4 days they still haven't checked the cups like I asked. I told them to put it back together and I am taking it somewhere else
-
When it comes to this much money always better to get a second opinion see if u have any shops around you're area that work on d12 engines what volvo dealer did u take it to
-
Place called truck enterprises here in Virginia. Do you have a shop?
-
