6.4 in Mexico
I also posted this in the general discussion. Will you be able to drive the new 6.4 diesel in Mexico. Will you be able to run the diesel they sell in Mexico and not hurt the engine. I bring up this question because the new diesel in ultra low sulfur and I don't think they sell that in Mexico. Any thoughts?

You'll need to get an aux tank to drive into Mexico, they do not have ULSD. There are other threads on this.

I mentioned in your other post that LSD can be used in infrequent situations. Just don't get in the habit of using it a lot. The catalyst can repair itself as long as ULSD is used AFTER a tank of LSD.
The cost of replacement won't be covered under the emissions warranty if it is found that too much LSD has been used. That's considered neglect. It will cost several hundred dollars just for the catalyst since it is made of platinum.
