    P0456 code question

    On my '15, it turned out to be the ESIM down by the gas tank. I did my gas cap first, but that wasn't it.

    6.4 oil pressure light

    +1 on the OE sensor, went through 3 different aftermarket sensors on my 02 1500. I haven't changed the 3rd one yet to oem, but have verified that pressure is good.

    2017 Ram 1500 Slt 5.7 Hemi Service shifter/transmission

    Don't you just love it when someone posts about an issue, then just disappear? Both are one and done's.

    That sucks. Prayers sent for speedy and lasting repairs.

    One of those days....

    You might have spare fuses, but if you have not actually looked, you might be in for a surprise. My fusebox had plenty of slots that said spare, but not a fuse to be had in any of them. My spare tire is in decent shape, surprisingly. I will be checking it again before we load up to go, and you...

    2013 8HP70 Fluid Change or not?

    If it were mine, I would do a fluid drain and fill once, and then once more with a new pan/filter after a short bit. I would not do any kind of flush, though. That way you would have 75% new fluid with a new filter on the 2nd drain and fill.

    Issue changing a brake caliper.

    Makes sense. It was tight, too. So much so that I was afraid I would strip the threads.

    Issue changing a brake caliper.

    Actually, the new ones seemed thicker that the ones that were originally there. Definately weird, I tried and tried. No dice. One thing I did not check was the length of the new banjo screw, maybe it was too long and bottoming out somehow.

    Issue changing a brake caliper.

    My son has a 2002 Toyota Highlander AWD, and had one of his brake pads fall out. I went over to help him and sure enough, the left outside rear pad was gone and the caliper had worn about 1/8 inch of the rotor surface and itself away. I took him to the part store and he bought a new rotor...

    One of those days....

    I went to Advance Auto and got a couple assortments of the micro2 fuses, so I am good to go there. I have noticed lately that Walmart seems to always be out of the stuff that they really shouldn't be. It must be their ordering system. I should get some of the cartridge fuses as well, but...

    One of those days....

    It gets better....The fuses I bought are mini, not micro.....None at the local parts store, none at WalMart, plenty of all the others, but only 1 tiny spot for the ATR fuses.... Ed luck, plain and simple. Will try another parts store tomorrow. If I absolutely have to, I will order on amazon...

    One of those days....

    I really expected there to be a few spare fuses in the fusebox, every other vehicle I've ever owned had them. Not surprised, though. If mfgr's can save $1 per vehicle, the savings are huge across a production run. I guess I'm livin' in the past....lol.

    One of those days....

    Had one of those days yesterday, stopped at the grocery store, had to stop at the drugstore across the street, and as I'm going through the parking lot, ding! My passenger front tire at 31psi. Hadn't gone 200 yards, 26 psi. Sh*t. Hauled ass across the street, and got situated just in time...

    My Back-up Camera is Back "Up" - tailgate camera fix for almost nothing

    WD40 works, but it doesn't last. Deoxit is far superior, IMO.

    Opinion On A Set Of Tires

    I got 81k miles out of the Cooper Discoverer A/T's from walmart. This was before Cooper got bought by CrapYear. Granted, they were LT265/70R17, but "E" rated. And they only cost me $675 OTD at the time. Have heard that Falken's are great tires, too.

    Not a typical tire question. Load rating/side wall ply questions towing

    I ran Cooper Discoverer A/T "E" rated tires from Walmart. Got over 81k miles out of them, and they cost me less than $700 for the set, otd w/road hazard. Now that Goodyear has bought Cooper, have no idea if the equivalents are as good. Have heard that the Falken's are excellent.

    Think I might crash

    And if it did, we wouldn't know about it anyway. If you live another 10 or 20 years, you might begin to understand.

    Hemi Tick. Needing Opinions

    Alot of times, the exhaust manifold tick will quiet once the engine warms, but sometimes the exhaust manifold warps so much that it doesn't seal well when warm. Fix the broken exhaust bolts, belt sand or mill your manifolds flat, and see if the tick is still present. Keep us posted.

    Transmission pan and fluid change questions

    I didnt do that, but I did manage to pop the radiator drain plug out during my drain and fill, lol. Btw, OAT coolant tastes really bad, too. What a mess!

    My pretty bad 2018 RAM 1500 Hemi experience, help/advice needed on what to do next

    I would wait on the mopar crate engine, and IMO, you should get a loaner vehicle, just for the inconvenience. But, as has been said, tread lightly, esp. since they are taking care of you, albeit very slowly. Best of luck to you, keep us posted.
