Description of the problem	When purchased at the dealers driveway, idle dropped extremely low then surged, salesman said that was normal for diesels, drove from that dealership to home with same problems almost at every stop, took to dealership again, they changed fuel filter, no change, then changed fuel pump, no change, then said they think it might be injectors or fuel rails, i had enough asked for the keys they still made me pay $600 plus to remove the vehicle even though they couldn't find the problem, shortly after that i started getting alot of blow by from number 6 cylinder, the pcm stopped functioning normally so i had to replace that, shortly after that i had to replace the turbo charger. Recently i was driving it and it started smoking extremely bad and just quit, i opened the hood and there was oil everywhere, had to have it towed home where it still sits as of this day. I have heard so many bad things about this vehicle between the years of 2006 and 2007, i think it only fair the dealer should stand up for their product.
