IF ITS A MAXXFORCE DO NOT BUY!!!Joec111 Thanks this.

Holy Toledo.....I finally found the worlds dumbest trucker..... So you know you cant reley on the jake but you pretend you can, than cry when it does ( or not does) exactly what you know it will do! I could make a career out of you if I were a psychiatrist!
Lest I digress....here is my real question.
On the problems with the 2010 to 2012 maxforce c13's...did the changes in the egr components fix the problem the engines were prone to. I see an announcement on the changes in hardware but no followups. -
Well....there realy are stupid people in this world....why would anyone drive faster than their ability to stop...just seems stupid to me...especialy if you do it over and over. The definition of insanity is trying the same thing and expecting a different result !
Lest I digress.....
My real question is...HAVE THE EGR ISSUES BEEN RESOLVED WITH THE 2010 THRU 2012 C13 MAXFORCES WITH THE NEW HARDWARE AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS AS OUTLINED IN THE DIAMOND RENEWED PROGRAM. -
No, those issues have always been core engineering problems with the whole advanced egr system. There are have been some improvements with egr valve, egr cooler cores, valve and actuators parts, but most of the 2010 generation are now coming out of warranty and no longer a concern for Navi. The improvements have helped, but too little, too late in my opinion. The 2010 generation is a terrible nightmare they just want to forget about, so re-engineering and further improvements are not going to happen.
wheelerdealer Thanks this. -

SO THE CORE ISSUE OF BAD HARNESS ...AFFECTING THE EGR SYSTEM...AND THE EGR , VALVE AND COOLER ARE SOUND IF THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED TO UPGRADED MODELS?
-
They have made up harness repair kits, not complete harnesses, although changing a complete harness is possible. The harness kits are for egr valves and air control valves specifically to prevent terminal pin "fretting". As for the cooler cores and egr valves, as long as you are installing the latest part number revision, you getting the upgraded part. I see no visual different. They have improved metal material quality and strength in key areas of the egr valve to prevent shaft and valve breakage and increased the soldering thickness of the coolers so they last 400K instead of 200K. ECM software calibration is also another area of improvement with egr operating strategies. Make sure your truck has the latest ECM calibration. If you have the last 8 of your vin, I can check to see if is current or out of date.

Can you check my truck. -
I have just purchased a 2013 maxforce13. I want to do all the preventive maintenance I can before we put it on the road. We will use this truck to pull our race car trailer. And we only run 10 to 30 k miles a year.
