I would find another shop with competent techs that will diagnose the problem instead of throwing parts at it, and giving up when they cant find any codes. If it's a fleet shop, well, you're kind of stuck. If you're mechanically inclined, you can check the EGR delta P ports and tubes for plugging. That's a common issue that can cause odd performance problems without logging faults. The 5 to 15 miles sounds like the problem is happening once it gets up to temp? That might be a clue also. Those engines will derate without a CEL if the air/coolant/egr temps get too high, but they're supposed to log an informational fault in the ecm.
AModelCat and BoxCarKidd Thank this. -
More than likely a vpod air pressure my 14liter was a beast after it was deleted

I have the same exact issue right now
But mine gives a check engine light and it cuts turbo boost in half
Although I just put new turbo
I also smell something odd like hot fumes maby Egr fumes
I’m not losing any coolant
Problem seem to happen at high speeds /high temp !
I’m going to delete it will let you know if that
