I was driving on a Tollway today on cruise control me and wife heard loud POP or BANG. Sounded it came from the front of the truck. Thought I had hit something, but I didn't. Instant power loss but truck running just acceleration is slow.
Two messages appear on dash display:
1) Service Electronic Throttle Control (Red Lightning Bolt)
2) Service Electronic Stability Control.
Thought maybe and ECU or other module had failed. Drove back home with just slow throttle response. It felt like it had lost any turbo boost.
Got home and inspected under the truck and found no leaks or smells. Opened the hood saw some oily residue on the air intake pipe from the filter. Took off the engine cover and found the Turbo feed pipe before entering inter-cooler had burst. Then saw something funny sitting on top of the engine block. A roughly 2-3 inch metal sleeve. When I looked at where the pipe had burst. It DID NOT look like this could of been thrown from the tubing assembly. The tubing was partly together and I couldn't see how this ring could have been shot out of the pipe. I just had the 01A HPFP recall done on my truck about 11 days ago. Is it likely the servicing mechanic forgot to reinstall the metal ring weakening the tubing?
Check for codes as well and got a bunch:
2022 RAM 1500 3L V6
~11,500 Miles
P0299 Turbocharger Underboost
P2471 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit High Bank 1 Sensor 4
P00101 Mass or Volume Air Flow Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance
P049B EGR "B" Flow Insufficient Detected
P0266- Cylinder 2 Contribution/Balance: No Sub Type Information
I'm taking it in to Ram service tomorrow, since it is still under warranty. I've attached pictures of the interesting particulars. You can clearly see the metal ring sitting just below the burst point. Notice the tubing still seems semi together.
Thoughts? Anyone else seen this before?
