Well here goes guys,
The truck in my sig has 124k miles on it. It seems like i am running into problem after problem with it. About a month ago i threw a p0700 after i heard the loud BANG and felt like i ran my tranny over. (pred set at 85 and stood on it while i was in 5th geer) Also got the p0101 code for the Mass airflow sensor. Also having issues with my fuel filter WIF sensor bleeder screw pump bulb? something?? But i have to prime the freekin thing every time it sits for longer then maybe 5 hours (getting really tired of that) I really love this truck... Since the limp my tranny is acting up, every time i shift into 5th geer it seems like it jerks into geer pretty hard and then the truck moves. I searched earlier today but i'm not sure if the C3? is just screwed or what? I live pretty close to crank it up diesel and was wandering, do you all think it's worth sinking $3400 into a DMAX with 124k miles on it? Or would it be a better idea to upgrade to an 06? ( if i keep mine i want the 06 mirrors, and i'm still kinda upset i didn't wait for a truck with leather, bose, and the electric climate control) Also if i get the upgraded tranny i'm sure i would get efi live or ppe. I'm just looking for some suggestions. I have no idea what would be better to do, i would love more power, but i like the variable vane turbo sound better too :P Would i lose my butt trading on an 06 with the options i want with around 70-80k miles on it?
Any opinions are welcome and or comments! Thanks guys i will be checking this a lot so anything i forgot to add that would make it easier to answer just let me know! Thanks!
