macktruck505 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I am looking at a 2006 rawhide with an mp 8 just wondering if it will be as reliable as my old E-7 that i put 1.4 million miles on and never over hauled it. I heard mechanics saying there were problems with snapping exhaust studs or cam problems just looking for some advice thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackpro Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I'm pretty sure the MP-8 didnt come out till 2008. 2006 model CHN- CXN's had the ASET version of the ETECH engine and it does have issues with exhaust manifold studs breaking, leaking EGR coolers and a few turbo actuators , however the heart of the engine( block, heads and crank) are still great and will last over a million miles. The cam issue has mostly been solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
