The radiators were a vendor issue.Lots of them leaked,LOTS.Ford forums were covered up with posts about leaking radiators.That issue got resolved.Now the particulate filter has been a issue on all the new diesels.

All of the work on my truck was warranty. The radiators were JUST a drip, so I was able to get my horses and kid home safely. MY 2004 f350 left me broke down alone all over Kansas and Oklahoma. I blame the DPF filter on enviromentalists... Its technology forced on us.

I think you can put any of the banks stuff, programmers and other products and not void warranty my friend said that their dealer put a programmer on their 05. On my 06 dodge 350 with 4.10 rear, I put K & N intake, edge juice with an attitude not my milage with 2 horses and 8 foot sw LQ trailer is 13.5 going to put an 5in exhaust.

Don't kid yourself into thinking anykind of programmer is O.K. If they find it on your truck, or traces of it, you will have a voided warranty. Hence, if you mod a truck, YOU are your own warranty station.

Add that stuff and have a engine etc.fail and watch how fast Ford says BYE BYE on warranty.If you want to argue about the Moss whatever act Ford will more then glad to see you in court in what ever decade you so desire.Meanwhile.You know the rest. A DEALER can and some do install such items.BUT FORD won't back nothing after such.None of the auto manufactures will.Don't blame them eaither.

Ford wont even stand behind any of their diesels one they get a few miles on them. My friend had one stayed in the shop more than her yard, Ford would not do anything she did traded for a dodge and it gets better milage.
