Mark, agree. Going to find one soon.
Deltas were 8-10 the second time it happened. The thermostat was acting funny the whole trip. It's a couple of months old and it was acting like it was sticking open. It dropped a couple times to 177* when EOT was above 200 and would come back up.
Turbo was acting fine and it was about 29psi when it popped the wrench the second time. Was going up a big hill in PA.
It felt like it went into limp mode. Lack of power. Pulled over, let egt's cool, shut down and restarted.
I will hit up some place for a better code reader and report back.

Joy. I don't let the truck sit. Put almost 16k miles on in the 1st year. Once I clean it again, how do you prevent this from happening?
Really don't want to be doing this A-1R (annually or as required) But I will put it on the maintenance boards.

How often to you do WOT runs? That might help a bit.

This should be a W1... at least.
I get on mine often and even then, thinking that mine needs it now... three years since last cleaned

Had the same issue with my engine wrench coming on when pulling. A turbo unison ring fix. As noted in other threads, my last one stuck and it lasted only 20-25k after.
I replaced it and the fit is much better. I wouldn't be surprised if the OEM factory units come with just a bit bigger internal hole diameter now, knowing the consistent issue here.
Just replace it and save some time soon.
