Failed rebuild?

[TopGear]

Most shops in Canada cannot rebuild stuff properly with the OEM stuff. You cannot expect them to do it with junk parts either.

The reason everything always seems cheap in the beginning is that is how the shop gets you as a customer by giving you a ridiculous price you cant say no to.

You advised the rebuild shop has opened a case with Cummins? Did that not raise any red flags to you? How would that be possible with aftermarket garbage...

Each engine is different and knowing how to rebuild a diesel isn't enough regardless of the experience, unless you spend tons of time working on them and getting successful results.. no way you will get a good rebuild. You sir will instead have a timebomb waiting for disaster.

I would highly suggest you become somewhat knowledgeable about how the red engines run or sell/trade it in for something else. Maybe you can pick up another truck for way less then the headaches that truck will give you?.

The path you are going down is going to get darker the farther you go down with less and less people to help until you go broke.

The Diesel engines are not what they used to be in the past. The shops who can do the work correctly percentage wise is very low. Even the shops who can do them properly still don't have {reduced dust/clean} environment.

These emission systems installed on these trucks cause the truck to behave in certain ways. When the parts are not up to standard you end up with defective parts or a part that has a short lifespan then its intended. Causing the owner of the truck to suffer. So did you really save money not really. Are you learning stuff about the engine that you as owner should not be wasting your time doing learning yes.. is it helpful maybe..

Most shops in Canada will give you 1 year warranty to fix problems with engine. I would either go back to the shop and tell them they need to fix it in which case you get a band aid over something that need stitches or you maybe sell it and start again with hopefully some better hard learned experience.
