    Hey Tarn,

    I just encountered this message now (02/28). Very sorry for the late reply.

    Here is my one weak experience with my 2007 6.0L PSD:

    The motor worked well up until 55K miles. At 55K miles my van died on an on-ramp a mile from my home and would not restart. Fast forward a few months and a fair amount of me diagnosing the issue on my own I found an issue with the IPR valve. Part of the IPR screen broke and got wedged in the IPR valve body. I purchased and installed the new valve cleaned and cleared the old valve for backup. I don't know why the screen failed... which will forever make me concerned with reliability (as well as carry more tools + spares than I care to admit). Since my fix, the motor has run fine (now at 60K miles). I have read enough info on the Internet to know that bulletproofing would help proactively make weak points stronger... but I don't have the resources needed for that investment today. Perhaps someday.

    Thanks,
    ---Bruce---
