Just found the forum, sounds good. I have an '05 f250 6.0. Interested in the problems discussed, esp the oil cooler issues. I have had no problems excp. bad injector o rings at <5000mi. I am surprised to hear of all the oil cooler issues. Should I make a change to my stock truck before its too late? Only have 56k on it. I drive it and fuel it.

Welcome to FTE.

As others said the coolant filter is a great investment. Go to DieselSite and order one, you won't regret it.

Also check out the Tech Folder if you haven't already. There is some great information there.
