6.7L Cummins Engine Brake
Does everyone use the engine brake when not towing? I've read mixed opinions on using it 100% while driving. Thanks in advance S Woolery 2012 Aerolite 2014 Ram 2500 4x4 6.7L Cummins

My brother still had to replace his actuator in his 2014 at around 60k even when he used it 100% of the time. So did another friend of mine who owns a 2015, but his was still covered under and they gave him a whole new turbo. I replaced my VGT with a fixed geometry turbo at 80k miles in my 2014. I wasn't having any issues, I just wanted to replace it with a non computer controlled turbo. My EGR "fell off" at around 30k so less carbon running through the vanes which may have also led to why I didn't have issues.
So take it for what it is worth. My brother used his EB 100% of the time and still had actuator issues. I will say though that my brother drives like a grandpa and I don't so that may also have something to do with it as well.
