paccar engines good or bad

The fuel economy on the engines has been good. Not saying we had trouble with the S60 12.7 and 14L.

Our mixer trucks at the place I worked just out of the service had little 300 horse Cummins. Problems with the DPF. But in a lot of cases, the Kenworth dealers still don’t have the diagnostic equipment, either.

Maybe the price has come down some on that stuff now, but the company I used to work for lost 2 ISX's, one 515 hp and one 565 hp due to an oil cooler issue.

But he thinks anything over 62 mph is speeding.My only complaint so far is that not a lot of people know how to work on them yet.

Low cost is the only good thing about them then you pay on the other end. Didn't realize how bad it was till I crawled back in the backup truck.

Stopped at a stop sign so thought I would throw this out to the drivers. 2 things the trucks have in common is 2-3 years old with 150-200k miles. In terms of power, performance and fuel economy they are great.My drivers really like them: We have a fleet mixture of Cummins and Detroit power. In fact, they’re getting the highest MPG numbers for any engine in our fleet right now. Just talked to local truck repair guy. He liked the cats/cummins but said he still had better overall life/expense out of the detroits.

They had a bunch of Cats that were getting around that million mile mark where they usually traded. If I were going to buy a used truck, a twin turbo 550/1850 C15 (MXS,NXS) would be my first choice engine. Anyone have any experience with these motors?
C-15 accert . Both in terms of filter and component placement and access to major systems.It’s a very technician-friendly engine. I have the same opinion when comparing a Cat to a Cummins. You have to download the fault codes and send them in to Paccar. I know of several guys that had one and won't buy another. Ah the elusive diesel engine: power, strength and the raw horsepower to get the things done.

A few yrs back, my buddy that ran our truck shop visited one of the local fleets to drum up some business. Our service support has been very good.The only thing I don’t like about the engine – well, it’s not the engine: It’s the way Paccar handles the fault codes you get off the engine software. Our PACCAR MX Engines unite high performance with light-weight designs, giving you a reliable B10 design life of one million miles. Just so happened there were 2 Paccar trucks in their shop that day... with holed blocks. What is an “undefined” code?

PACCAR claims to be a technology company but uses systems from 30+ years ago and did not even have the ability to forward office phones when employees worked remotely during COVID-19 (still doesn't). The heavy haul trucks are Pete's with the 565 X15 Cummins. Hunting, Shooting, Fishing, Rodeo, building things in the shop, Only run IHC all my years of ranching. They say you can’t hear the turbo spool up and engine brake noise is nonexistent. Hunting, Shooting, Fishing, Rodeo, building things in the shop, Only run IHC all my years of ranching. His personal truck with a detroit has over 1million on it and the engine has never been touched. Some of the engines only have about 15,000 miles on them; others have around 75,000 miles. Hello I am working on a Paccar engine mx13 Peterbilt truck it's blowing white smoke when truck runs is tought it would be injector dozer so I replaced it and customer Says it is still doing the same thing I did injector test with computer and got these results I'm not sure on how to detect if they are good or bad Dad had one years ago in a western star with a pot that was gutless he couldn’t stay in radio range with me. There's 2 that I'll bet have spent 40% of their lives in the shop for constant wiring and emission issues, phantom check engine lights and derating. I have the same opinion when comparing a Cat to a Cummins. Contact Us . Just that IMHO our Cummins N14 when set at the Same HP will out pull them and is a smoother running engine. Good power,decent fuel mileage,and great reliability. Just talked to local truck repair guy. And we sure were not going to tear out a driveline or any other catastrophe  I have heard good and bad and everything inbetween on them and dont know what to believe especially coming from a truck driver.
One thing a few years ago Columbia with big Detroit brought 10,000 more as a fleet truck just because they were the big hp reliable truck. Not saying we had trouble with the S60 12.7 and 14L. This means 90 percent of PACCAR MX Engines will log up to one million miles without a major overhaul, almost double the life of comparable engines. And the drivers tell me the PACCAR is the quietest engine of the bunch. I know of several guys that had one and won't buy another. There was always something wrong. And that’s a very aggressive engine brake. This is so important when you’re buying a truck.

Really, the only thing I’m nervous at the moment with this engine is breakdowns out in the middle of nowhere.They’re so new you pretty much have to go to a Kenworth dealer to get them repaired. They all agree with you. Lot of kitty cats pulling bull racks out here. They did the job just fine.
