In this video, I cover what we found on a truck with low compression. Troubleshooting and finding the root cause of failure is very important. If the root cause is not found a repeat failure may occur. The DD15 in the video had a complaint of low power. Be sure to follow PSL before condemning any parts and be sure to have experienced professionals conduct any repairs on the engine. Failure to do so may result in a more expensive repair.

Thank you Adam. Good job. Some people would think this is a bad design for a valve failure with just over 400k miles. They have to remember, it's not just the miles, it's also the added hours of running idle. Have a blessed and safe week to you and your family. Happy Thanksgiving.
Just a fore warning from a freightliner mechanic in maryland when you start getting the gen 5 motors in with dropped exhaust bridges do yourself a favor and just drop the pan and check the wrist pin on that cylinder seems to be building to much pressure in that cylinder and blowing bushings/ bearings in wrist pin
I’m a 35 year Detroit tech and I approve this message. I’ve seen this multiple times. The problem is that warranty won’t pay to drop the pan and inspect for this. after the adjustment screws are replaced and you still hear popping out the intake then you check for spun cam lobes because the lobes are pressed onto the shaft the increased pressure due to the exhaust valves being closed all the time they can spin. But when I’ve seen this happen the wrist pin bushing will come apart and crack the liner and let coolant into the oil. Detroit ruined the DD engine with the gen 5. They are going to put them out of business. These changes are all due to the new EPA regulations. I’m all for clean air but enough is enough.
DOCTOR OF DIESEL MECHANICS ! MAN THIS GUY IS GOOD !
I wonder if he got carbon build up from a leaking EGR cooler. That would cause a cold intake valve and allow contaminants from the coolant to build on the backside of the intake valve.
Well done Adam....very informative...
Great mechanic, you really know your craft. When I need work I’ll be coming to see you guys.
Boy this guy is very knowledgeable. I wonder if I can afford taking my truck for repairs at their shop. I hope they are not too expensive.
Exactly what’s on my mind
It would be nice if they could show a list of how much they charge for most of their work atleast.
@@Humanscale800 give them a call. He’s cheaper then dealer. Plus you get what you pay for! If you pay cheap labor you get cheap work done. Best to pay professionals. Adam is a great mechanic
@@transport21 , I fully agree with you. We all wish for such great mechanics. It's just that times are tough now. I bought this truck 4 months ago with a bad Clutch, Transmission and egr. I need it fixed so bad.
@@Humanscale800 for general repairs like that find a local family owned repair shop. They will have the best prices. When you need interior engine work done or something major then you go to professionals. Find a local family owned repair shop and stick with them. So they won’t charge for small things
Very.helpful. these are the checks im looking into rt now but yours goes more in depth.
Thanks much
I just bought a 2016 WS with 403k miles. In the first 25k miles I've had the DPF worked on, turbo blew, clutch replaced and fuel filter housing was taking a pile of air. I was just about to get an overhead ran next week and this video popped up 😫 fml... but that the downside to used equipment. You don't know who drove it before you.
This is why you get previous maintenance records. These days is bad idea to buy a used truck cuz if kids driving them rough.
@@transport21 it was an O/Os rig. I expected better from them.
@@danielroatch1322 what was the reason they sold the truck?
@@transport21 traded in for new. With the engine make, and the milage. The research I did for 3 months on the engine, the many friends I have swearing by the DD15 I took a chance. And that's all it ever is, a gamble.
Idk about this for sure but it seems to me it seems these newer trucks are only designed to last out IRS depreciation time frames without major issues. Not the million plus miles the older trucks were. I'm seeing early corrosion issues for certain 2 years in.
Thanks
Welcome
You're Awesome, nice video, explaining very Professionaly. Thank you
This video really helped me a lot
Very good information
Adam, I apologize for so many questions. What service information do you use? Mitchell? If so, how good are the wiring diagrams? Do they have good identification for location of components like modules, connectors, and grounds? How good are the wiring diagrams for the network (J1939 CAN Bus)?
Thanks for the info brother
You bet. Be sure to subscribe to the channel. 👍🏼🚚💪🏼
Hey boys Thanks you guys .??🏥🚛
*****🇺🇸🎼🎸🎤wow🤔we learn something everyday🤗Tks Adam 4T important info😇we appreciate 4T resolve causes it takes technique 2 accomplish🙏🏽🥁🎹🎶🇺🇸*****
Hope you answer me this cause I’m curious couldn’t you just grind the valve and re-seat it instead of recommending an entire new head for one valve that’s not properly closing???
Good job
Great job.
I have to ask. How much that job cost and how long a driver will have to wait from check in to ready to drive again.
Thank you
Wish you would do some videos on the MX13 Paccar.
You guys are awesome
video này hay lắm nhưng ngắn wa anh ơi, em cảm ơn anh nha
For sure stopping by
That was awesome!
Awsome again ace mechanic 😇😁
Great stuff brother 👍🏼
Good afternoon how do you fix a Gasket charge air pipe on a DD15
Great info
If you plan to purchase a DD15 auto with a 500k to 700k what would you look at before purchasing? And after purchase what is you recomation?
Hi Sir I had tex b4 with questions
We had a turbo replaced in Jan 2022
The gasket or o rings at the bottom of turbo for the return line started drip just had all replaced a week
ago trk came back with a bigger oil
leak at the nut at the bottom of return line just had it fixed Now picked it up an when u start pulling ck engine light comes on an stays on with no power at mid to top range anything I should be looking for now. Thank you in advance ☺
Hey Adam I have a question that no one has been able to solve yet. A few months back the number one injector went bad on my dd15. I had it replaced and ever since whenever I'm under a heavy load the engine will cough a couple of times when going back to throttle when coming off a hill. The problem is sporadic. And as long as I crowd into the throttle it doesn't happen , it's only when easing back into the throttle. And it's only when I'm loaded heavy 35000 Plus. The scenario goes something like this, I pull a steep grade reach the top and cruise back down off throttle. When the terrain flattens out and I ease back into the throttle to maintain speed the truck shakes violently for a couple seconds then Smooths out but if I stomp down on the throttle and then back off it doesn't do it. I've asked several mechanics and other drivers with dd15 and no one seems to have had this issue.
Mine doing it to but i got a regin on mine but it dont take def i don't evan have a check egine light on. I believe that regin got something to do with it
I have a 2010 cascadia 12.8L I’ve been losing power as of late. When my check engine light turns on my engine immediately misfires, my rpms decline and my diesel drains. I’ve plugged it into computer and got SPN1327 as the lookup code indicating cylinder # 5 misfire.
Is it my fuel injector? Does it have to be replaced or can it be cleaned?
I also think it could be due to a leak coming out of my high pressure fuel line? I have pictures if anyone could tell me what this is.
Thanks
Try to bleed the fuel lines might be there is some air pressure exist..
How much it coast to do the cylinder head replacement?
Good stuff
So how much did that cost to have diaged and have fixed roughly
I have spn 656,fail 14,with amber light..With slight missing..After parked,restart trk,no co eng light,Idles perfect???
My truck been blowing smoke up hills and loss of power. hours earlier it was making a loud noise whenever I accelerated and the jake brake sounded similar
Great Video Adam, can you share an estimate on this trouble shooting process?
Well Done! I really would like to come to your shop!
Hey I have a 2016 Freightliner cascadia automatic 896000 miles I bought from truc equipment this truck is hell the transmission jumps into neutral when I turn on the engine break it downshifts way to much the truck doesn’t regen it barley uses the DEF I tried to see if the other people have the same issue they do but I want to know if there’s a fix I already took it to the dealer ship and they replaced all 3 sensors and it didn’t work
Check the cpc computer behind the dash.they go bad and cause truck to do weird stuff.if that's the case u can gat a used one go to the dealership and have them program it with the vin number.hope that helps,mine did same thing and this fixed the issue.
Hlo sir your videos are very helpful to me thanks for that will you please tell me which computer i should buy for diagnos
This is interesting,
What would be the best maintenance to have good valve seating?
I have seen a few DD15 have low compression on cylinder 6 from engine with 300k miles to engines with 700k?
Have you found what is the root issue of why cylinder 6 have these issue? ( poor lubrication, poor fuel flow to this cylinder,etc)
I'm pretty sure he stated that is was that the valves weren't seating (sealed) and that's why it had low compression
How much will this Cost???
I got similar problems with my 2012 Freightliner Cascadia DD15 ..
it lose power on a normal hills … this happened after I by pass the DEF….
Could you please give some info …???
Thank You!
The DD series of engines are not Detroit's, there actually Mercedes.
Paccar MX is Daf MX
Assuming the customer is skeptical, could a leak down test be performed before pulling the head? Would it show a difference or just a waste of labor time?
Adam u r super thuper
Damit I live in Fort Worth. I’m in west and my truck did a 25% derate. Can I drive it back
Did you get this fixed?
I’m at the Freightliner right now for a water pump an oil pressure sensor switch an told them that the Freightliner I was at a week ago for a nox sensor said I need a overhead soon an the Freightliner I’m at said that I don’t need an overhead because I’m at 96% what do you think overhead or no
I recommended having them done every 500k. All valves will not need adjusting, but it is good practice to have them done. I would recommend an experienced tech with DD15. 💪🏼🚚
In case you have damages, wear, corrosion on the firedeck of the head. It is possible to rework the head by 0.2 mm. You have to reset the gearlash by loosening the boots on the topmost gear spindle on the block. The gearlash can be adjusted by rotating this spindle.
Bad valve and u replace the entire head? 🤔 If this is common, I'll never have another DD.
Wow, replace the whole head for a couple of bad valves?! I had liked what little I knew of the DD15 until now.
No thanks. Poor design.
That’s what I was thinking. I mean getting the valve and seat ground seems like an easier option
Na na labor is too much to do that and you would just want to replace the whole head cheaper
It's not a bad design it's just what these guys do if a valves not sealing.
Id just pull all the valves on that cylinder do a valve lash and put it back together.
Not a bad design. Do your valve adjustment on time!! And you won’t have this problem. Plus it’s about labor and time. More faster to just out a rebuilt head on and be done same day back on road then repair the old head.
@@transport21 i have a 2020 cascadia evolution with 371k miles on it ready for me to buy. However it had fuel pump failure and had metal shavings pushing out. The mechanics dropped the fuel tanks and cleaned it out replaced filter and pump. Would you recommend me to buy this?
Do you guys work on international maxforce engine?
I got a DD15 I just got my CPC done Over but I have no pulling power going up a hill
As always I've learned something new today, thanks Adam, by the way i have a cat C15 accert 2005 you guys work on those right?
Basically you need a New engine, or overhaul
What do you mother truckers think about running an old 6v71 detroit two stroke diesel engine?
All see it’s Avery expensive bill taking my truck to your shop….. yo can see the problem right away on the head the sixth cylinder has moisture.
What would that cost (complete repair )
A complete engine replacement is not cheap. It depends on the serial number and if the parts are reusable.
@@TATEXPRESSINC from your experience what’s an average price?
Cost of head part only?
Roughly $3k give or take, that’s head only; add in diagnosis, labor, gasket, injectors (if needed) & as we all know it’ll get up there
Rebuilt is $1,500
6900
piston- suppap- cylinder - gaskets -turbo- radiator
What will be fuel average on dd15 505hp with 3.73 ratio 13 speed ?? Any suggestions
Depends on how fast you travel, how many hills you go over, how heavy your cargo is, how bad your oil is, how bad your air filter is.........
Wat up adam....u guys work on 3406e...happy thanksgiving to u n yr family 👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
How much did it cost to replace the Head...
Id said new head is around 8k..labour is another 4k
Well, this business has been very unprofessional with me, I make my appointment for service over a month ago! I just arrive here and they just tell me I have to wait here for a week because about 12 unexpected truck has arrive over the weekend! And they will put in before my appointment! Don’t come here guys, look for professionals to get your job done! It’s so many around!
What’s a a job like that cost
How much for d16 2007 780 volvo
