sorry
I'd like to know GIGGER how you have 100,000 plus posts. Wow! Who were you posting to as no one else is even close. You fingers must be tired. You are the undisputed posting champ I think.
As for the turbo I worry about my truck as now at 115,000 kms and no warranty left. I take great care of it but I know parts aren't cheap on the Super Duties.

Yeah I thought powertrain was 160,000km. I would say the turbo is part of the powertrain...
This is why I'm on the fence for engine mods... should I wait for the warranty to expire or screw it, if an OEM part breaks then replace it with an aftermarket part.
Only thing is, 160,000km is already 'time get a new truck' kind of kilometres. I don't necessarily want to keep a vehicle for 400,000km. (Of my own driving. my 2004 6.0L has 425,000km over multiple owners and it needs new everything and I only keep it around in case I want a project to tackle.)

I don't know where the turbo falls, probably under the 60k like a few of you suggested.
One would think it would fall under the engine since it's kind of important?
Dealer wants it towed in on Monday so I'll try to coordinate that from DCA.
Should be fun.

period: the engine, cylinder block, heads and all internal parts, intake
and exhaust manifolds, timing gear, harmonic balancer, valve covers, oil
pan and pump, water pump, fuel system (excluding fuel lines, fuel tank
and frame mounted fuel conditioning module sometimes referred to as
the frame mounted pump/filter/water separator), high pressure lines,
gaskets and seals, glow plugs, turbocharger, two-stage turbocharger
assembly, turbocharger actuator, powertrain control module, engine
control module, high pressure fuel injection pump assembly, electronic
driver unit, injectors, injection pressure sensor, fuel rail pressure sensor,
high pressure oil regulator, exhaust back pressure regulator and sensor,

Wow, good luck kper. You won't pay a dime, and shouldn't.
Turbo is not a hard repair but getting it delivered to your dealer may take a week. Hopefully you'll get it done quick.
The ESP has provisions for rental car in it.

It was slowly failing from the beginning (if it's actually failed).
Could be something else I suppose...
Flatbed picked it up from the driveway this afternoon.
I'm in NH so didn't get to watch.

I heard on another site that the turbo was redesigned for trucks after February of 2012, but my 12' was built on 12/15/2011.
