i had the second one done....dealer was surprised they were not told to do it on every truck that comes in since it dealt with turbo longevity and was a cummins flash not Dodge....but he did mine anyhow and just put down CHECK ENGINE LIGHT as reason for doing it.

never had long crank issue so did not do first
