Full EGR System Replacement Cost

[AustinAng]

Hi y'all,

Can anyone let me know the approximate cost of a full EGR system (the whole system) replacement? I've already had a valve, cooler, then valve again replacement. Nothing has changed.

Thanks,
Ang

Why not GD tune and turn it off, if not deleting it? Are you having issues with it?

It's a very long story, but yes, there are issues. The work up until now has been covered under the powertrain/ emissions warranty, but they're not wanting to go any deeper than a valve, cooler, then valve replacement. No one will take responsibility at the dealership or at Mopar. The current dealership won't touch it until Mopar authorizes an undetermined amount of money, and Mopar won't authorize it until the dealership can give them a number. So basically I'm getting the runaround.

Man, I hate to hear that. have you tried getting @JeepCares involved? drawing straws there too I'm sure, but id hit all the stops. If all else fails, Id tune and shut it off/Leave in place until warranty runs out.

The Eco-D is a beast when its tuned/deleted. My 20 Ram was done.... Loved it.

It has 47k miles of a 100k powertrain warranty and it's my daily driver. The worst part, that I just found out today, was the the original dealership that worked on it blacklisted my Jeep, with no reason given and no one told me. So they supposedly voided my warranty after doing work under the warranty, then when the issues persisted, they just ignored my phone calls. I took it to a different dealership who told me the first dealership screwed up the wiring on it. No mention of blacklisting or anything else, they've just had it for 3 weeks. They suggested I pay $750 out of pocket for them to diagnose the wiring issue, or I could take it back to the original dealer. I ended up opening up an escalated ticket with Mopar to get help and here I am.

What is blacklisting?? Why was warranty canceled??

Bulletproof Diesel makes an EGR for our vehicle. Looks dang good too.

Basically them saying something aftermarket was done to void the warranty.

Update: Well guess what... I asked the service advisor manager directly if that is what they say in their system, and he said NO, there are no restrictions on my Jeep! The runaround is just stupid ridiculous. The Mopar agent left me a message today that her supervisor approved the work, so hopefully they can get on it soon!

That sucks. If I were you I would definitely heavily look into deleting the EGR. I do hear good things about the GDE (non-delete) tune, but let's be honest here, the only thing that's going to save your engine from itself is a full delete.

You could always do what I'm doing: purchase the blocking plates (which I already own), and put in a order for a secondary PCM, get it copied, and have the delete tune put on the secondary PCM. Then you can install it whenever you feel like it. You could wait a few years, you could do it the next day, you could do it a decade from now. But at least you have the option.

At $500 an hour, PLUS you'll never get another regular person to regular person conversation. They'll ONLY talk lawyer to lawyer once one gets involved on your side.

I'm in Texas, but doing what I said without installing it is not illegal on any level. Not state level, not federal level. If you install it, you might be looking at some different answers there, but just owning a tuned PCM and EGR blocking plates without actually installing them isn't illegal.
