Want a 392 AlcHEMI Durango to keep long-term, but am terrified of lifter/cam failure 😢
Welcome to our place!
I have two 392s, one is a 2017 Power Wagon, and one is a 2019 DSRT (to go along with the 2016 HC).
I have no issues.
Change the oil frequently with PUP and either a Mopar or WIX filter and drive and enjoy.
Is there a chance that you'll get the bad apple, or course, but these engines are doing fine if you ask me.
Now to be fair, I've also got a 2006 Durango with a 5.7L that knocks to high hell, but it also has 180k miles on it and it's obviously a different design motor. Shyt happens.
