When it comes to long-haul trucking, diesel engines are the go-to choice for fuel efficiency and durability. However, even the most well-maintained diesel trucks can experience issues on the road. We offer reliable roadside services for diesel trucks, ensuring your vehicle stays on the road and your cargo reaches its destination on time.
Common Roadside Issues for Diesel Trucks
Diesel trucks are prone to various roadside issues that require immediate attention from a skilled technician. Here are some of the most common issues that our technicians at Riteway Diesel encounter:
- Fuel System Issues - Fuel systems are the heart of any diesel engine. If the fuel system fails, everything from debris entering the engine to complete engine shutdown can occur. Common fuel system issues include fuel pump failures, clogged fuel filters, and air in the fuel lines.
- Electrical Issues - Modern diesel engines rely on complex electrical systems to function. Problems with the battery, alternator, or wiring can cause many issues, from warning lights on the dashboard to the engine not starting.
- Cooling System Issues - Diesel engines run at much higher temperatures than gasoline engines. If the cooling system fails, or if there’s any sort of blockage, your engine can overheat, causing permanent damage. Typical cooling system issues include leaks, failed water pumps, malfunctioning fan clutches, and radiator failures.
- Transmission Issues - The transmission transfers power from the engine to the wheels. If the transmission fails, your truck won't be going anywhere. Common transmission issues include fluid leaks, clutch failures, and worn gears.
