2016 CTD 67,500 MILE PERFORM SERVICE

Regarding the 67,500 mile perform service light that comes on; I've seen Youtube videos that say the EGR cooler gets removed and cleaned along with replacing the crankcase filter at the top of the motor.

My manual makes no mention of the EGR cooler service, only to replace the filter. Which is correct?

    Don't get sucked into the "Recommended Service BS".

    2013 and newer RAM's with Diesel ONLY need the CCV filter changed, THATS IT!!!!!

    Be sure to buy FleetGuard or Mopar filters ONLY.

    It's about a 15 minute job start to finish with a Beer at the end.

    Thanks Cummins, I picked up the Fleetguard filter already from Amazon. Looks like a simple swap.

    It's actually required for the '07.5 and '12 first gen 6.7CTD trucks.

    The job was simple. Just need to figure out how to reset the service light.
