I have an 05 that I have never had a single issue with. Recently purchased the Edge Insight to see what was actually going on with the truck. Found out I have deltas of 30+*, crazy right. About a week ago I performed a flush with water, simple green, and VC-9... in that order. The only thing I back flushed was the oil cooler from the top of the motor. I am now down to a 12* delta which isnt great but much better than it was. I believe before I go into my motor I am going to give it another shot. I really feel that the so called goo in the cooler is the culprit and that the simple green is what cleared a lot of it away. This was an all day task but worth it. BTW while I was under the hood I threw in a couple of Die Hard Platinums.. WOW!! The truck came back to life!
