EGT Gauge Probe
 
I own a 2005 F350 Diesel 4x4 Crew Cab Long Bed and I want to add some gauges. The question is if I drill and tap for a EGT probe and install it will it void my warranty?

I Have never heard of any troubles with this

I have never heard anybody have warranty problems due to installing a EGT Probe.

We have never heard of this issue either, but since your warranty concerned, to put your mind as ease, I would recommend going to talk to your local service manager about it and see how he views it. All dealers are different with the aftermarket industry.

I feel the only way that your warranty would get voided is if when you drill and tapp the manifold the shavings get in there and mess somthing up, what i did was kept a shop vac on the drill and tap at all times and when i was through i sucked it out and let the truck sit and idle for 5 minutes so in case there are some shavings it wont get your turbo like it would if you were driving!

I did the same as roadrage yesterday and it was an easy install.... Much easier access than I expected.

I don't think the warrenty will be violated, there could be problems if you had a problem and the dealer wanted make a big deal about the repair they may try to blame you for the problem. I agree with the others, ask your service manager.

Had no problems with EGT probe interfering with my Warranty

to be honest - I have NEVER in the year that I have been in diesels and the days upon days I've spent reading threads and talking to people heard of anyone having their warranty voided b/c of an EGT guage...

we drilled and tapped my roommates and havent heard anything about it from the dealer.

NO It will not void any waranty the only way it will is if you get shavings in the maifold and turbo failure accurs the best way is to drill alost trough then start truck so it will blow shavings out exsaust and not into turbo also coat bit in thick grease to help catch shavings
