Noticed a couple of changes on the 2015 MY

lmorris · June 6, 2014

First is the already known new turbo. The lower intake seems to be redesigned as well. The section of the EGR cooler that was previousy fed by the secondary cooling system is now fed by the heater core supply line before the heater core.

Great, this is going to confuse the shit outa my parts department even more than they already are:

412 engine

416 engine

Maybe I am the one who is confused. I haven't replaced a turbo on a 67 in years. Is the 412/416 just a numerical designation for pickup/chassis cab?

The pic for the 412 engine looks like the new 2015 design for the EBP tube. The 416 looks just like the previous setup. Should make pulling the EGR a lot easier.

We had one 2015 chassis cab run through the shop already. I didn't notice much different. A few things but nothing remarkable

P473 was the model code for the 2011, that what you mean brad?

Brad Clayton · June 8, 2014

I have no idea what I mean, I'm pretty out there at the moment, someone reel me back in please. :confused:

412 is an internal designation we use for chassis cert engines, 416 is for dyno cert. I am not sure why you guys are seeing those now, but that is all they mean.

I drove a 2015 the other day but no time to poke around under the hood.

I dig the $65k dollar exhaust brake switch on the dash ::drool::

The cab/chassis vehicle where not said to get very much in the way of changes, hopefully they stop eating turbos tho

tonybullitt · June 10, 2014

with no changes to cab and chassis how are they going to stop going thru turbos

The cure for 450/550 C&C turbo failures is lost sales of 450/550 around me. Some long time big utility and construction company fleets I see on the road all the time are now getting 4500/5500 Rams. These guys have had Fords as long as I can remember.

I hope someone in Dearborn is getting the feedback from those customers as to why they are leaving the nest.

I will still buy a Ford 550 over the dodge for our fleet. We have a couple and they are good trucks but still have the headaches. Are latest one is a transmission valve body failure to the tune of $5100 to repair. Or I could by a new transmission for a cool $9000!!! :mad: really 9k for a transmission?? Oh thats right its the same one as the dodge sprinter pos! Thanks Dodge!!
