re: Coy's Diesel Specialties

Yes they will do all of that. You're gonna need to locate a programmer first though. Another thing about Tri-care is that out of the year or so my truck was there, they never once upsold me on stuff that wasn't needed. If I had any questions about the work, they had no problems showing me the defective parts or walking me into the shop and letting me have a look at stuff.

Here's a story that can better explain how my last interaction went with them. This was a week before I sold my truck:

I was getting something done where the cab had to be off again. Didn't want to spend a single dollar more than I had to fixing it. Jay called and told me that my oil cooler had all kinds of shite in it(coolant residue), and that I should put a new one in it so I didn't have to come back a month later when it fricked up for good. I told him I wasn't paying a fricking thing more than I needed to to get the thing running, and I would just let the guy I sold it to worry about it. We went back and forth for a minute and he finally said, "Fine, I'm putting the thing in if you want me to or not. You've had enough problems with it and I don't want any more stuff going wrong. I'm not charging you for anything, but I'm putting one in". Sho nuff, he had the mechanic put a brand new one in and didn't charge me for the part or labor.


Ask for Jay or Daniel and tell them the guy with the cursed F250 sent you. I told them I sold it, but there is no way they forgot that truck.

They are very quick with work, but also do a lot of fleet work, so they might not be able to get to it for a day or three. To put that into perspective, they can have the cab off of an 08-10 in under 2hrs with one mechanic working on it. Swapped a long block and all parts over, then put the cab back on in about 10hrs. Diesel rates are around $100/hr anywhere you go, and they use computer hours like all other shops, so don't be surprised when the labor bill is high.
