Diesel warranty?

[Americamper]

Are the newer diesels warranted to 100K or 5 years whichever comes first? Or is it 100K with no time limit? I think it would take me longer than 5 years to get to 100K.

OP got his answer. The rest of this is just wasted bandwidth.

He is doing research. If you didn't want to help why reply?

When you do your research be careful to also check the warranty on the exhaust system. It can be different, read less, then the engine. For example five years or 50,000 miles on the exhaust even if the engine warranty is five years or 100,000 miles. And the exhaust system is where you will likely have your issues especially if you drive the truck as a 'grocery getter' most of the time.

See the 'Comparison Warranty Chart' LINK in my earlier post

It has ALL the various warranties and time/mileage limits

Howdy neighbor. It almost always going to be the lessor of the two. Stay away from Sunny King if you do Ford.

lol, he is researching. He's researching who has done the research and what their findings are. Down to the nitty gritty and easy conclusion. Smart youngster for sure...

Every vehicle I have purchased is 'whatever comes first' Otherwise there would be no need to state both time and mileage unless the manufacturer would be providing warranty service for a 59 month old year old truck with 500,000 miles or a truck that is 40 years old with 99,000 miles.

Duramax, PowerStoke, Cummins-----5 yr/100,000 whichever is first

If you are bored Ford warranty takes 41 pages.
Main story is on page 8
Powerstroke is 5/100,000

Page 11 gives the breakdown on oil burners. 5 or 100K for most all parts on the motor.
