Dealer says I need to have my rail flushed!

DTR's 'Go to Guy'
Guys, this MIGHT not be BS, I just replaced my fuel rail pressure sensor because it was bad(codes were 192 and 193 and my Quadzilla couldn't read RP). The sensor I pulled out had metal shavings on it, I also have a 2 mic filter setup w/ 10 mic pre-filter. I'd pay $3??.00 if they could prove to me they were getting my complete system inside the filters to the engine cleaned. Just an FYI.

What would concern me, is that IF you had this done, it would push all contaminates THROUGH the injectors and into the engine! If I were concerned enough, I'd pull the rail off, lines off, and injectors out to all be disassembled and cleaned. NOT a flush! Just my opinion FWIW.

They are probably referring to cleaning the injectors. Really no way to "flush" the rail! Happens every time you mash the skinny pedal! LOL Save your money..........tell them to give you something in writing as to any warranty concerns. Dodge would have some sort of a bulletin or part addendum that they could print if Cummins or Dodge engineers felt it was necessary. And IF it was necessary, warranty would pay for it!

Oh, I agree totally! IF they took the system apart to clean it, it would be worth the money, a FLUSH would force everything into the injectors it seems. My whole point to adding to this thread is when I pulled my sensor out it was not clean at all even w/ really good filtration.
I'd be concerned about the CP3.......the only place that the metal could have come from - after the filters!
