POOAF

[biodiesel]

P00af is kind of generic and comes up for a few issues.

Most common is the wiring harness by downpipe overheating. Alot of us have vented the engine bay etc to prevent it and relocating it also helps.

I've been keeping track of the P00AF on the Ram forum. So far, that code has resulted in a warranty turbo replacement 100% of the time. Here's the list on the Ram forum. Everyone who has gotten a new turbo hasn't had the P00AF reoccur.

Fantastic info. Thanks for the work.

Surely that would present itself as a permanent code, no?

EcoDiesel owners have been able to erase the code. It's fairly easy to replicate by towing the same load up the same hill/mountain that triggered it. One of the Jeep guys was able to trigger the code by running empty (no towing) and driving over a long steep grade somewhere in the Tennessee mountains if I remember correctly.

You're very welcome. I have two Gen 3 EcoDiesels, so I'm eager to learn the ins and outs.

Has there been any update on replacing the turbo without a cab off? I saw somebody mention it somewhere but as far as I know it's still a cab-off operation. Seems so silly given how close it is when you have the fender off

Under warranty, they have all been cab off repairs on the Rams. Unfortunately, I haven't followed the Jeep forum(s) to know what they are doing.

With all the vehicles that need the body lifted off to change the oil they ought to hinge them in the back like funny cars

Nobody has been able to replace just the turbo actuator?

100% of the forum participants had the repair replaced under the 5 year/100,000 Powertrain Warranty. The repair procedure calls for a new turbo. That's partly because Jeep/Ram doesn't carry or sell the actuator.

That's great for those guys but for us folk with april 2021 builds the warranty no longer stands....
