More 6.0 problems!!!! Help needed
My dad has a 06 power stroke with about 135,000 miles on it. In 1 months time, he had to replace number 1 and 5 injectors and the turbo went out (he is now on his 3rd turbo).
When when accelerating, the truck reaches the upper part of the rpm's (when it should shift to the next gear) it won't and just kind of bogs down. You have to completely let off the throttle and come back into throttle for it to shift.
Anyone have thoughts what could be causing the issue? We were thinking there's another part of the turbo system that needs to be changed due to it not creating enough vacuum but were not entirely sure. After the dealer changed number 5 injector is when this accelerating problem started. It's going back to the dealer but just want an idea of what's wrong since we fell there aren't up to pat on diesels.

Truck runs great now but the wallet it's substantially lighter.
