I'm wondering about your "facts" since it was you who stated previously that you've never once even looked at these motors.

The only thing I've seen you do whip people into a frenzy and skirt the line of the forum rules regarding legal action. You do this without any first-hand experience with the 6.7L. None of which is helpful.


And to everyone else in this thread, yes my 2015 has this very same issue. Is it ok for people to be upset? Yes it is. But know that Ford is in fact working on a solution.

 

Pocket I was brought in on four consults and found they tight tolerances and showed them their two options to fixit; pull on new heads springs and verify you have at least .003 , better being up near .005. Ones we encountered were around .001. Or machine shop it opening up to .004-..005 in totals minus my recommended additional bell mouthing at the combustion chamber side.
I tell people what's wrong and how to fix it and some make me out the pariah. I suspects most of those are upset as they are tens of thousands of dollars upside down and can't get out along with other factors. Well Indidnt create the problem but showed it and my fix is vetted with multiple vehicles in the tens of thousands of miles. Now if some have emotional or insecurity issues and get worked over because they don't have it happening to their truck and or hoping for an over one year promised band aide is coming and they feel the need to attack the guy who has shown route cause and a vetted situation, well that's not my problem it's theirs.
My diagnosis and vetted fix stand, my intentions have always been good.
Not dealing with attacks any more.

 

Oh and pocket you are Curtis over at Powerstroke army are you now ? Still waiting to hear your story about how you are building the remainging 6.7s and how if people listen to Nick it will cost you lots of money.
If you are the same person are you in Mexico. Has ford decided to farm these out to you? I've been hearing a whole lot of nonsense around here and am certainly not going to be attacked, especially by those.

 

Sooooooooooo.........

I'm wondering how someone who professes they are not an expert on the 6.7L can be "brought in on 4 cases". If you aren't an expert, then what good are your findings?

 

Because your non-expert assessments differ greatly from people that I have discussed this with who are actual experts with the 6.7L.

I have to wonder what is actually helpful to people on this forum who are having this very issue.

 

Once again I started the post and it's been augmented. And I realize why the moderators cut some of the pages out it was getting childish with certain members of your community. On Tuesday my problems will be behind me and I will have a new truck we'll see how it goes I hope it's one of the ones without the issue. The head mechanic at the dealership told me the only reason they're doing it is because it happened so soon into the life of the truck and they're not going to waste their time with mitigation and lawsuits when they go forth attempts to fix it and cannot solve the problem on these vehicles with this bad of an affliction. I truly hope ford solves the problems with these vehicles. so as I stated before I only want to hear from people that actually had this engine and if they were resolve just in case the new one does the same thing. And if there are any moderators looking at this keep certain people from just voicing bull**** opinions thank you

 

I don't consider myself as an expert on the whole truck from my standpoint not having been thru every single thing on the truck
But pal Im considered a diesel expert including people like the US Coast Guard.
Valve and thermal exhaust valve stiction is a general issue . It's not something totally new and unique. I identified it. My findings are corroborated in mechanics nots from a ford diesel tech. There are people who got there trucks fixed by having the service director to go by my guilines and now there are tens of thousand of miles logged trouble free.
How was I brought in because I have a stellar reputation and long list of referenced happy clients. How did I do that studied hard, got published before there was an Internet at age 21 , taught diesel classes. Cracked 6 figures at 22 yrs. old. Learned anything and everything I had an opportunity to. Started being approached for side work and consults, Spent 31 yrs. being a hard working, polite, respectful, relationship building person.
That's how. My credentials and reputation are in order.
People say," oh Nick is here to stir it up like blood in the water with a shark. Not only is that statement incredible lay rude but is furthest from the truth. I have explained what's going on and how the root cause can be addressed to make the problem go away. Vs. making statements like I jump in and say oh you bought a piece of junk it's your fault.
You do not nor will you ever effect my reputation and relationships I spent 31yrs. cultivating, sorry.
These are the facts now stop attacking me and get off my back.
And if you are Curtis, you need to stop saying," I'm building the remaining 6.7s and if people listen to Nick, Ill loose money.

I post technical info and you violate the rules attacking me.

If you are still young which I detect you are, go do what I've done and in 31 yrs. send me a note.
Take care of yourself, these tizzies you work yourself into is not good for you.

 

Tune in next week for the series finale of "As the stomach Turns"....

Sheesh...

 

On Tuesday you are receiving a replacement truck with the 6.7L instead of the 6.2 gasser?

 

[QUOTE=Maxium4x4;15896919]On Tuesday you are receiving a replacement truck with the 6.7L instead of the 6.2 gasser?[

What you are missing as I stated there giving me another diesel to try my post was augmented because of the exact same thing that Bigfoot just added no facts just bull**** another ford owner that doesn't want to hear about a bad 6.7 they're afraid to let you read the entire post that I stated if it was one in a million the second truck shouldn't have a regen problem in 400 miles I basically hit the lottery of bad luck with this truck and luckily it happen within the first 20 days of ownership that Ford will buy it back do the simple fact they can't fix it and we go around and around with arbitration. I will let you know on Wednesday how it goes once again please only post if you own a 6-7 with the region problem and if it's been cured in your area

 

All I asked was a simple question Yes/NO Not a novel. That is why the thread has went on a dark spiral down, unless you forget, we are here to help but if you wish I can Close this discussion. You post with aggression, what answers do you want to receive?

 

once again I told you in simple terms I'm getting a new 6 7 which is going to cost me more money. I'm not producing a novel I just can't stand the rhetoric going on with a simple post about anyone else having trouble with the regen process. Your comment included you ask for a simple yes or no if you wanted to help you would need more information than that you're once again doing exactly what I'm asking you not to do. the next post that hits this should say yes I have a 6.7 with that issue here is what they're doing the facts not ford bull**** and I quote what the head diesel mechanic said at my dealership the public relations people are out there telling everyone it's okay we're working on it. his opinion of the flash coming in the next quarter it's basically going to turn the horse power down and up the RPM's too a higher range during the regen process to keep the valve seated A Band Aid at best, he's personally putting off buying a new 17 until they solve the problem considering they're putting this engine in it a lot of confidence right there

 

Not one member here has the regeneration issue you are experiencing, keep us updated on your situation.

 

OMG you just don't stop check your own web page an owner he posted in my earlier post he had the jack hammering and mine does that too along with the shakes

 

Your case was the only one that I have read which gets worse when you downshift to increase RPM.
Have you ever owned one or more diesels before? If so - what was it?
