how many miles on your 6.4
#33
2008 F350 6.4 auto crew SRW 4x4 w/ 74K+ miles.
Bought it used in May 2013 w/ 51K+. I mostly love this diesel gulping hog.
When I bought it and still at the dealership a check engine light was on ...EGR had to be replaced at their expense. Three days later a trans "module" fried and was replaced about 45 days later when the dealer could get one (apparently these are very popular),before I had it it was mostly regular maintenance according to OASIS.
Trans filter and fluid at 59K.
I think that's it.

118,000 miles,,,
Other than cracked DPF at 7,000 and drive train stop/go knock at 28,000, no major issues??? DPF and slip yoke cleaning/tightening covered under warranty.
Since 100,000 the radiator replaced due to leak, cold weather white smoke (seems to resolve with cleaning exhaust routine), and occasionally a reduced engine power on startup (after being parked for a few days).
Last few weeks, have noticed power steering fluid leak,,, considering use of stop leak,,, no problems noted with steering or unusual sounds.

36,400 miles on my '08 F350. DPF fell off early, around 5k mark. At 20k I changed every fluid to the best synthetic I could find.
Absolutely no mechanical issues yet.
My tuner is Edge. I run it on the mild setting. It has enough power to do what needs doing but is notably less potent than my prior 7.3 with the mild Edge tune.
At the rate I am using this truck it may be the last truck I ever own so I spare no expense for maintenance . I just wish the TPMS had an "ignore" feature because I refuse to spend the money to change out the monitors for a feature I neither want or need.
