Bought a 2017 with only 14500 miles on it. My buddy posted on FB that he has the same truck with just over 100K on it. He's on his second turbo...the first went out at 60 K. Is this a common problem? Didn't find anything with my searches. Seems like a solid motor to me. .??

I've only got 15000 on my '15, so I'm no expert on the longevity.... but I've seen several threads in the past with guys over 100k & the motor was still going strong. But there are also guys with '17s (sorry) who have had to have their engine worked on multiple times...KillinTime is going thru this now

Curious as to how the 2017 2.7 is treating you. I am looking at a used one as well...

I bought a 2017 with 23000 miles on it. She now has 47000 very trouble free miles. The truck is awesome!

Just picked up a 2016 with 86,000 miles. Seems to run strong.

6/60 Powertrain warranty. Turbos are allegedly good for 150k. In the big scheme of engine repairs, I thing a turbo swap is relatively inexpensive.

Seems everything has a Turbo now in North America!
Turbo has been a staple on pickups for decades in europe

Nothing like hurtling through space on a 3 ton Barcalounger with twin turbskies.

Picked up a 2017 with the 2.7L Eco with 71,000 miles. I am worried about the carbon build issues I've seen on YouTube. Anyone had to clean the intake valves of carbon buildup?

Also curious, if a turbo goes out, does it have to be replaced? I'm not a speed demon. I drive like a grandpa, lol.

Thanks

2018+ have port injection with DI, virtually eliminates the carbon build up issue. Since you have a 2017, you are susceptible to carbon build up issues.
