We have blown Allisons, and injectors, they all have issues and each brand have their limitations. I own all 3, NEW, and use all 3 differently for our business.

Re: '05 6.0 PSD idiling issue
I can tell you that the fleets I call on that run several thousand of each (3500-4500, 350-450) the Duramax injector is cleaned up as of the re-design in 05. The Allison has been a breath of fresh air with minimal failures overall. The 6.0L and trans performance have not been acceptable. I believe Ford may have gotten the 6.0L cleaned up in 05 but there are a bunch of unhappy campers still out there with re-occuring software/injector issues.

All I can tell you is my 05' Duramax with the new redesigned variable-response turbo and Allison both have a ton of low end torque. I had an 04' and with the new turbo what a difference! It kicks in much faster and just pulls away.

"'05 Excursion 6.0 PSD with the full Banks upgrade on it."
I think that this is part of the problem too, if you leave it stock, alot of these problems with ALL three trucks would be alot less.
Glad to hear they fixed it under warranty!
