Help...6.7 CTD smoking (update: Cracked injector)

I would not drive it. A tow to the dealer is much cheaper than a blown engine.

X2 on not driving. If it's the EGR cooler, it can cause more damage. If its the DPF if means its trying to burn off excess fuel, which could end up fouling it or plugging it with ash. A 2014 won't ever smoke during regen. Actually none of the 6.7's do, unlike the Ford 6.4L.

I wouldn't worry too much. Get it to the dealer and let them handle it. I am sure it isn't anything you could have done, even if you pegged it on the redline.

I think you're right. I'll try to get it there soon. Will I damage it if I keep driving it until then?

I wouldn't advise it, get it looked at asap.

X2. Have any issues with getting water in your fuel?

I'm going to say you are just going through a heavy regen. My 13 did it too. If you drive around like you have an egg under the pedal the exhaust builds up.

Get it there before your 3/36 warranty is up just to be safe

The more I load down my truck the better it runs. The most common turbo failures that I've seen is the variable veins start sticking, but you'd notice that with a loss of power, and that "usually" starts acting up around 70k miles. My first thought was maybe a blown head gasket but you said all the fluid levels are normal. Have you pulled the dip stick as well? Oil color and smell normal? Is it making oil?
