You could also try Benny at All Mopar Parts on here.My husband has a 2013 dodge ram slt quad cab engine 4.7L . V8 Engine light on dealership said needs fuel pressure sensor mopar part 68210330AA. Told him they don’t make this anymore? truck runs great vehicle emission will not pass it. Is there a work around or a compatable part for this? I’m trying to help him he’s so frustrated.
Tell him to check into the fuel pressure differances between a 5.7 and a 4.7,as he might be able to mod the 5.7's sensor enough to fit your 4.7 if they're both a 58 psi fuel pressure system.They look similiar except for the pigtail,so he might be able to cut the pigtail off and rewire it for the 5.7's pigtail.My husband has a 2013 dodge ram slt quad cab engine 4.7L .

Your dealer is stupid, which is pretty standard. eMopar shows the part as "currently unavailable" which does not mean the stopped making it, just that it's currently out of stock at their warehouse. It's common enough for parts to be out of stock that there is a system in place to tell dealers when to expect the part to be in stock. If you want the Mopar part, I recommend calling another dealer. If not, a Google search will show you several aftermarket options.My husband has a 2013 dodge ram slt quad cab engine 4.7L .

I'm planning an arctic circle trip in the next year and drive from the southwest to the PNW and out to the east coast a few times a year.Wanted to get some advice. I bought a 2011 1500 outdoorsman with the 5.7 hemi 5 months ago. Its been in the shop the last 2 months. It has 89,000 miles on the clock.
Bought it cause it looked practically new and like it had been babied. Came with adjustable bilstein 5100s, nice rims and new 35" BFG ko2s. I hunt and overland a lot and drive solo into a lot of areas without phone service or that are inaccessible by tow trucks. I'm planning an arctic circle trip in the next year and drive from the southwest to the PNW and out to the east coast a few times a year. So I need something I know I can rely on.
I knew these trucks had some reliability issues but figured I'd take my chances cause the price and setup was right. I bought it from a dealer and bought an extended warranty for it for peace of mind. 2 hours into a month long roadtrip I got a code for a misfire and then sure enough loss of power. Limped it back at low rpms. Dodge dealer first diagnosed plugs and coil packs so I changed those myself but still had the same code so took it back where they told me it was cams and lifters.
The warranty tried everything they could to not cover it but eventually it went through, but the process took almost 2 months. If i had been on the road theres no way I could have waited somewhere for 2 months for this again. And typically I have firearms and my dog so figuring out other arrangements isn't always easy.
They didn't find any metal so they're doing new cams and lifters. Having such failure after driving this for 1,000 miles has shook my confidence in this rig. I've driven toyotas in the past and always knew I could trust em deep in the backcountry.
So overall, wondering if y'all would trust a truck like this in the future. I know the cams and lifters are a known issue but are there any other common issues to look out for? Would any of those issues potentially leave me stranded in the backcountry? Anything to make this rig more reliable?
The best thing financially would be to keep it for 3 years I have the warranty, pay it off and sell it before the cams and lifters explode again in 80,000 miles. I'm weary to drive it across the country knowing if it breaks down it could be months before it's back on the road. And definitely do not want to end up broken down in a situation without service and ample food/water. Considering how I use the truck would you keep it and roll the dice or trade it in for something more reliable?
Help the lady out,and find her one then as you seem to know all about them
You didn't add squat to the post,that hadn't already been posted ,I do not have access to FCA's computer network.
I DO have experience with dealer incompetence.
I know, from my experience speaking to someone in the Parts Department at Jack Phelan CDJR, that dealers have the ability to search other dealer inventories, as well as see estimated time to availability of backordered parts.
I helped a forum member out by sharing information. I did not find the part for them, because I am not an auto parts supplier.
A forum member was lied to by a dealer who told them a part is no longer available. I alerted them to the fact that the dealer was lying, that aftermarket replacements are available now, and that a competent dealer will advise them about OEM availability.You didn't add squat to the post,that hadn't already been posted ,
Change the recommended oil according to OLM.Get yourself an oil strategy,
Some people just don't get it. If your oil strategy is changing your 20 weight oil according to the OLM, you next post will be from the bad lifter/rounded cam posts.Change the recommended oil according to OLM.
Find her one then.Little tidbit for you,the last 4.7 used was in 2013,if they're out of stock now,what makes you think Ma Mopar will have more made for an engine that wasn't really popular in the trucks,and has been out of production for 11 years.A forum member was lied to by a dealer who told them a part is no longer available.

Which of those things, specifically, "didn't add squat'?
I doubt the dealership lied. Do you understand how their parts inventory systems works?A forum member was lied to by a dealer who told them a part is no longer available.
