Dropping the (already Euro and US emissions compliant) diesel was purely a business decision - they sold so few diesels in their key markets, particularly the US, that it did not make financial sense...

Very clear departure from the traditional GC formula, moving more towards luxury SUV. Not what the market wants here, but we're a drop in the ocean - USA is a different story with what customers want...

I had a pretty bad experience with the Zupps service team regarding a warranty issue back in 2013/4 - it was like pulling teeth. Sounds like nothing's changed.

Yeah from your signature crdv6 it looks like you'll need to the ELSD oil in the rear diff - if you have air suspension, this is the case.


Can't remember what the grade is though...

Have to remember though that we on here are really the odd ones out when it comes to being 'informed consumers' - not everyone has the desire to know anything about their vehicle. Just want to turn...

Hmmm pretty sure it's 10k intervals in my 2015 book - could be wrong though as I've always just done all filters at 10k

Service intervals were changed to 12mo / 20,000 with the MY17 facelift to reduce the 'cost to run' and improve environmental ratings. Nothing vehicle-side changed to warrant this.

Dealer is taking the piss even providing you a quote given it's a known issue which resulted in a recall. They should be taking it to FCA, not you.

FCA/Stellantis should come to the party - fight...

Just came to here to post that I've seen a couple of reports of it being done / booked in. A bit of a surprise if I'm honest. Can't decide whether I want a dealer touching it though...

Isn't the 'official' ZF procedure for these boxes essentially drop what you can, refill, run it through the gears, drop again, and then refill?

I'm partial to ZF's reputation for knowing what...

The cases where I've seen goodwill replacement (post-warranty period of course) have been when all services have been conducted by a dealer. Even then, seems to really be luck of the draw and how...

You'll spend more on a remap (and the other options you listed) than you will get back in fuel savings. Save your coin and put it towards the Caddy deposit.

Worth noting too that many dealers, and some independents, can't be arsed changing the oil viscosity on the charge list for each vehicle they do - so even if it says 5w30, it's possible it was 5w40. ...

I think I've found your problem Jeeper - the figure on the dash (and quoted in specs) is litres per 100km, not km per litre.

Equation should be 270.48 litres / 23.62 (100kms) = 11.45L/100km,...

BNE to SYD and back last week for TayTay - concert was damn impressive, but so was the fuel economy. Certainly can't complain about 8.9 with 32" LT ATs, roof platform, UHF, light bar, and about 250kg...

I was of the understanding that the RAM ecodiesle was a different (newer) generation to ours, and did have some differences? Ultimately you'd assume the oil specs should be comparable though.
