Egr cooler repalced to get us passed warranty - oil cooler was not replaced prior to 160k warranty exipred- on vacation 2000kms away (only 11000kms after egr cooler fixed) from home towing a trailer overheated was told head gaskets done and heads pitted. would this be caused by the egr cooler not being the proper fix in the 1st place? when replacing head gaskets - egr cooler replaced again and this time also oil cooler

Thanks rocitman187......this confirms everything I have read on this issue. Does anyone know how I find out the exact date when the TSB 08-11-3 was changed to 09-8-3?

A few week after having the egr cooler installed (under warranty) we called again to advise same issues. Ford dealer said sorry past warranty of 160k. Have since found out the egr cooler should have still been covered at that point and should have at least been looked at to see if it had failed. I have called dealer who originally installed egr cooler to advise the egr cooler had to be replaced on vaca in Halifax only 11000kms from the one they put in they said - oh but we replaced egr cooler under warranty so you don't get the 12mth/12000k warranty on that part you only get 3 mths/5000k warranty. what kind of bs is this! it shouldn't matter how the part was paid for and by who (them or us) it should have the same warranty!

Thanks for this - it confirms what I have been reading online. Do you know what driving with pitted heads will do to the truck? Also do you know when the TSB 08-11-3 was updated by Ford to 09-8-3?
