My experiance in a month

Bought my new 2500 with the 6.7 cummins less than two months ago and have already been back for the engine light coming on!!! First they tell me that the ECM on the turbo isn't communicating so they replace the Turbo, less than two days later the light is back on and they tell me again that they need to replace another ECM!! This truck drives good and is still getting 14 to 16 miles to gallon and I wouldn't know anything was wrong if not for the engine light. Is this common with NEW 2500?

No, that's not normal at all. Find out what code it is throwing.

Do you mind me asking what was wrong with your blower?
The reason i ask is that mine just seems to be moving next to no air at all. My wife's Honda CRV moves as much air when the dial is set to 2 out of 5, as mine does on high. It's frankly embarrassing how little air comes out of my vents. I did do the cabin air filter mod and saw very little change in air flow (before and after).

It moves lots of air. It had an odd whurr sound to it. Other than that the HVAC works great.

My truck hardly blows any A/C at all. Maybe its a problem? I just thought the truck A/C sucked and I just dealt with it.
