150,000 miles on my 6.7 and what I should look for.

11lifted250 · Jan 15, 2017

My 2011 F-250 CCSB just rolled over 150,000 miles. Not sure if I need to look out for any parts that may go soon around this mileage. I do alot of driving from NY to NC on long weekends and normally see around 20-22 MPGs. But this last trip I had to drive like a grandma to even get close to 17-18. Not sure if this is a sign something getting ready to go. Any advice would be appreciated.

With that mileage I'd be waiting for turbo to go. Easy upgrade for that is budget kit which doesn't break the bank and makes great power.

Does turbo failure risk damage to other parts? I'm getting close to this mileage also but I hate to tear the truck apart when it's running fine

Once the turbo goes I want to upgrade to aurora 3000 or 4000.

I have a 194k on my 2012 and only things I have replaced were the hot side intercooler boot and the turbo. The turbo did not fail on me but long story short I was installing E G R kit and broke a bolt off, shop took things apart to install new exhaust manifold and saw turbo was loose and had lots of oil as well as sludge on the vanes so I figured what the hey since it was already apart (it was making some noise when I took it in). I don't fret anything going out on me really since I have been D-leeted and all the crap that gums up the engine are gone. I say keep on trucking and don't fret it. My mileage will vary quite a bit on really minor condition differences. I can head south to the beach going 80 and get 19mpg and I can head north with a 10mph headwind going 65 and get 15mpg. I'm stock suspension and factory tire size.

Are you up on maintenance like air and fuel filters?

11lifted250 · Jan 15, 2017

I am looking at E GR Dletes now just not sure which one to go with, I already took off the D PF and tuned with H&S mini maxx. Hoping to see this truck make it over 300,000.

Yes, regular maintenance is complete, I even sometimes do it ahead of schedule based on driving conditions.

Could be I'm in the north so I assumed most of the time it is winter fuel. I didn't fuel up at my regular spot. So could be fuel. I'll see on my way back up this time stopping at the regular stop if it makes a difference.

I am up here in Canada, and winter fuel does make a difference.

No, but I had it for a week or two before I tuned and de leted D PF. Still need to remove the E GR but have it unplugged when it was tuned.

Nice, I'm in upstate NY about 30 miles from boarder. Think the pumps say September to April is winter fuel.

Winter fuel always drops my MPG by 1 or 2. I have noticed that strong head wind will also kill my MPG. I think what you are seeing is totally normal.

My front shocks were pretty much done around 100k miles. The backs still had some life left, but I decided to go ahead and replace them anyway.

Your front shocks were done by 30k,they don't last very long.

That's what I heard.
I bought the truck at 99k, shocks and weightloss were the first changes I did. It's an entirely different truck now!
