Did my 3126B last fall at 140,000 miles and not really. But it was worth the trip to the CAT shop. I had them do a fluid and filter change and a chassis lube while they had it there and the tech found a bunch of suspension issues. Had those fixed over last winter.
They even threw in a new coat of CAT yellow in the valve cover. - ncrowleyExplorer III have 51K on mine. I had the HEUI pump go which required changing the injectors because of the metal shavings the pump put out. Expensive but covered by my extended maintenance contract.
- w4phjExplorer28,xxx, no issues.
Valve lash not checked yet.
Dash air is awesome !!!!! - tinkererExplorer58,000 on my 2007 MH with a 2006 C7. Did the valve lash at 55,000 and none of them needed adjustment.
- cableguy574ExplorerI have 46000 on my 08 National Pacifica
- sailor_louExplorerI checked my valve lash at 40K and it took little to no adjustments, so no noticeable change in performance. I have good engine access from the top and the job was pretty easy.
