Glad it worked out in the end!

This reminds me of a thing going around about what day your car was built, you didn't want it being built on a Friday or a Monday. Not sure if it was just a joke or an actual factual statement. It was something about people in the factories not paying as close attention to detail.

Anywho, happy early weekend. Enjoy the eco-diesel!

That was the joke in the 60-70-80's. Monday everyone was hung over, and Friday everyone was in a hurry to leave for the weekend.
That's no longer true. It's every day now ?

Cool. I thought you were going to report a hangnail or something.

Have ya'll checked your transmission wiring harness on the passenger side to make sure its not touching your exhaust? Common problem... Also tire rod ends not torqued from the factory... Time to delete your Ecodiesel is now because your on borrowed time. Forget the warranty because the EGR is destroying the interior of your engine. Its usually too late once you figure it out.

I live in Hawaii and they don't check emissions nor does a lot of other states for small diesel vehicles. Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, etc. Emissions laws are changing as well so that is going to help as well.
