High mileage diesels?

[DeOhYouGe]

2021 JTRD with just a tick under 33,000 miles. Nothing to report regarding powertrain, the under dampened front end was addressed via tsb and the only other minor issues would be the start/ stop is a hit/ miss as to if it is going to perform or not and the occasional refusal of android auto to link up without some fiddling.
I asked about the HPFP recall on Saturday while getting my final freebie oil change and got the typical "working on a solution" line. When I asked as to how many failures the dealer had seen (according to the service writer) he said about 5. A low number if we were speaking gassers but, seeing the rarity of oil burners (in all Jeeps, not just JT's but excluding Ram) I was surprised. The solution until the fix, if it breaks, replace everything to as delivered and go about your business until the fix is in, get that and your done. Plus the warranty is alive (in the HPFP troubles varietyl til the fix is done. Crossing my fingers but not too worried.

Hey guys,

I'm really curious as to how these 3rd gen diesel engines will be holding up with higher mileage. Being that this diesel platform has only been in the Gladiator for about a year, I can't imagine there being too many high mileage folks out there with their diesels, but I figured it would be nice to start this thread to keep track.

So, if you have a higher mileage diesel, post your numbers and let us know if you've had any issues with it at all.

I currently only have about 1,200 miles on mine. I LOVE the torque and MPG that I'm getting. I usually go through vehicles once a year, but am loving this platform and hope the reliability of it stays true for the next 100k miles at least!

4 years-- 2020-to almost 2024, was in JL before JT-- my JT is 2.5 years old now...

Took delivery of JTRD in October 2021. Just about to hit 70k. Just had my first emissions system snag, but I cleared it with a Jscan and all it well again (knock wood).

Running a 3/4 rack and RTT, on 35s for the first 50 and now on 37s. Lots of highway, but plenty of trails, mud, sand and rocks. Love the ride and the torque.
