I also have an 06. My blowby tube extends just past the pan bolts an even if it leaked it would not show on the pan bolts. You could get a piece of tube just big enough to press onto the blowby tube to extend it past where you are seeing the oil build up to prevent any leakage from getting on anything. Then clean everthing off really well. Then if the problem continues you can atleast elliminate the blowby tube.

... I might start an argument, but these numbers would not bother me; especially with synthetic oil. If we go any further you might have to install an old mechanical bulb type gage to make the discussion worthwhile.

I have an 2008 Ram 2500 megacab which now has 22,000 miles. The check engine light started coming on after 6,000 miles. The first solution was that a sensor needed to be replaced. That lasted for a little while before I was back to the dealer with check engine light on again. This time the turbo needed to be cleaned. That lasted about 2 weeks before so then the dealer replaced the turbo at 12,000 miles. Now at 22,000 miles the engine light is back on again and the truck is in the shop. Their answer this time is cleaning the exhaust system and possible sensor replacement. All of this is covered under warranty now, but what happens after 36,000 miles and you are still having problems with the exhaust system?

I'm in the market for a used Dodge 2500 from 05 through 08. What years are better to look for than others? I'm seeing a lot of turbo soot issues and lift pump issues. Should I expect these with any year?

Well it seems you have answered your own question. The newer Dodges need to be worked to keep the system clean. Not designed for a car but work. This is just my opinion. I have an 04 that I bought used just recently. It's my first diesel.. Not really happy with the milage but it pulls the trailer.
