not the worst by far, as long as they are left stock. problem came in when people hopped them up and didn't do other things like stud kits and such. I would still take a 6L over any 12V or 24V dodge 😉

The weakest points with both engines is the oil cooler which can be addressed by a coolant filter so the cooler never cloggs, or an external oil cooler which works better anyway, and adds 2 more quarts oil to the system. The other major fix is an improved egr cooler that's less likely to clog, and also not crack and leak coolant into the exhaust, or exhaust into the coolant. There are other repairs beyond that but these are the main two.
