Common Issues With The 6.6L Duramax (and how we fix them)
- Head Gaskets- This was the first Duramax engine to use the variable geometry vane turbo
- It was so rely problematic for the failures with head gaskets.
- While our business is engines, we also encourage the customers to fix the cooling issues and update the LLY with the larger later year model LBZ fan and radiator.
- But we will take care of our end. And that is why we make sure that all our Duramax engines come standard with headstuds.
- So you don't blow a gasket.
