Truck feels like it has a mis in it
I have a 07 2500 2wd Quad cab 5.9 CTD. My problem I'm having is when maintaining speeds above 50 mph the truck feels like it has a shudder or mis feeling to it. It is at the dealer as of now and they are looking into it. just wondering if anybody on here has any ideas on what this could be. truck only has about 1900 miles on it. thanks

Okay guys I know I'm new on here, but just looking for some helpful ideas on what the problem might be. truck runs fine along as you are in the throttle but when you try and maintain speeds at 50 or above it has a slight mis like feeling to it. thanks

Update on my truck. The dealer had my truck for a week and it still has the mis feeling to it. they said I had a bad injector and pulled it to change and it was all carboned up. the truck only has 1900 miles on it. kinda hard to think it would get that bad that quick. they put some additive to the fuel per dodge and told me to drive it kinda ruff for two tanks to clean the carbon off. and it should straighten out. does this seem right or am I getting my chain yanked. thanks

I can't see how you could have a carboned up one in 1900 miles unless it IDLES a LOT! LOL Having a bad injector however seems to be very common with the 2007 5.9's. I lost my #5 at just under 20,000

Quick advice: Don't idle it, turn it off when you get out. And yes, run it pretty good, carbon builds up with low temps and excessive fuel like what happens when you lug it around in too high of a gear and never really wind it out. Run that motha hard, they just beg for more. Jay
