- [9003215](/bulletins/10229181.md), 2023-01-09, Service bulletin: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. Part Description: 5.7L Long Block Issue Description: This 5.7L Long Block Assembly is compatible with both EGR and Non\-EGR applications. An EGR Block\-Off Plate \(53032739AA\) must be ordered when installing this Long Block Assembly in a Non\-EGR application. Unless, the EGR Block\-Off Plate is being transferred from the old engine.
- [05191925A](/bulletins/10228094.md), 2022-12-19, Service bulletin: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. Radiator If vehicle comes in for transmission fluid leaking from trans\-oil cooler fittings on the radiator, please perform the following before replacing the radiator/cooler:\~ 1. Remove both of the transmission lines from the cooler?s top/bottom flared fittings on the radiator. \~ 2. Remove hex nut and the top flared fitting on the radiator tank.\~ 3. Using a wire brush and gasket remover, clean off the old sealant on the smaller threaded portion of the flared fitting. Do the same for the threads on the trans oil cooler.\~ 4. Apply a new application of Mopar PN 04318032 to the flared fitting, leaving the first threads free for ease of engagement.\~ 5. Install the top flared fitting by hand, then torque the fitting to 235 \+/\- 15 Lb\-In.\~ 6. Install the hex nut and torque to 100 \+/\- 10 Lb\-In.\~ 7. Repeat steps 2\-6 for bottom flared fitting.\~ 8. Reinstall transmission line per normal installation procedures and ensure correct fluid level.\~
- [68332810](/bulletins/10223854.md), 2022-10-17, Service bulletin: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. Service \- Four Piece Oil Pan Gasket All Cummins Equipped Vehicles ONLY \- The replacement oil pan gasket can be a four piece gasket rather than a single piece gasket. This applies to Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L engines only. Installation: 1. Clean the oil pan T\-joints.\~ 2. Fill the T\-joint between the pan rail/gear housing and pan rail/rear seal retainer with sealant. Use Mopar® Silicone Rubber Adhesive Sealant or equivalent. 3. Apply a 2\-mm \[0.063\-in\] bead of Mopar Engine Sealant RTV Silicone Rubber Adhesive, to the oil pan flange.\~ 4. The four piece gasket will need to be assembled to make a complete oil pan gasket. 5. Lay the oil pan gasket\(s\) onto the oil pan flange.\~ 6. Ensure the oil pan gasket segment joints are properly aligned. 7. Apply a 2\-mm \[0.063\-in\] bead of Mopar Engine Sealant RTV Silicone Rubber Adhesive, to the top of the oil pan gasket.\~ 8. Install the oil pan. Starting from the center and working outward, tighten the oil pan bolts to 28 N·m \[21 ft. lbs.\].

Part Description: Valve Body Assembly Issue Description: Valve body design was changed between 2010MY and 2011MY applications. To prevent mix matching valve bodies and solenoid packs the connectors are color coded.\~ Valve bodies with a white connector can be used on 2010, 2009, 2008..., model years. Valve bodies with a gray connector can only be used on 2011, 2012, 2013..., model years.\~ Solenoid packs with a white connector are used with 2010, 2009, 2008..., model years. Solenoid packs with a gray connector are used with 2011, 2012, 2013..., model years.
- [18\-016\-13](/bulletins/10215810.md), 2022-07-18, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE \(TCM/PCM/TECM\); POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE \(TCM/PCM/TECM\). This bulletin involves reprogramming the Powertrain Control Module with new software. The Technician may discover that P0128 \- Thermostat Rationality DTC is present. This DTC is a two trip code and is matured if a significant difference exists between the PCM predicted and actual engine coolant temperature during engine warm\-ups. The PCM calibration may improperly mature a P0128 DTC because the airflow across the coolant temperature sensor during colder ambient temperatures, 50° F \(10° C\) or below, causes the predicted coolant temperature to deviate from the actual coolant temperature.
