    Bad Gas

    Try this to get out of limp mode, place your vehicle into park, cycle the key in the ignition to the "on" and "off" positions three times without firing the engine, then start the truck and limp mode should be reset. If this doesn't work, the problem might be related to a more serious issue like...

    Sounds like your display is showing kilometers not miles to me.

    Part # RP Oil Filter??

    Actually I don't believe RP has updated their site yet for the 13's and newer yet. The 5.7L have always used the 20-820 since mid 2008 when they started using the MDS system. The 10-48 is a smaller filter with a slightly different thread pattern, it is used on the majority of dodge cars nowadays.

    Cat Delete?

    Check engine light can come on for numerous reasons, O2 sensors, MAP sensor, EGR, EVAP system, cylinder misfire, low voltage, you get the idea. Definitely worth going and pulling the code to find out what the vehicle is storing. Whenever your light is on, the vehicle goes into basic mode of...

    2004 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi won't start after head replacement

    White smoke on an engine after head replacement is pretty common, a little can sit in the cylinders from removing the heads, but on the norm will dissipate after a short time of running the engine. If you are seeing white smoke from the tail and the oil cap, it is telling you 2 things. 1- your...

    2013 5.7L what's that ticking?

    I know this tick real well, back when I had my 2008 Sport, it started ticking like this also. The tick got real annoying when you were sitting at an idle. Took it into my dealer, which I have to say is one of the best and honest dealerships you will ever go to, they checked it out and told me it...

    whole story on my truck ( so far)

    Just curious, what did you sign when you dropped the truck off at the dealership? If you signed a blank form, you basically gave them permission to do what ever they wanted to do. On a used vehicle you should always put a ceiling on the dollar amount that they can do work on your vehicle, that...

    2003 p0138 code

    Yes you would be looking at the driver's side O2 sensor after the cat. Since the code reads P0138 1/2 O2S Shorted To Voltage, #1 - meaning driver's side, #2 meaning after the cat. Same O2 sensor that went out on my '03 when I had it. Twice. IMO, spend the extra money on a high quality...

    POLL: straight pipe exhaust vs age

    I had a 74 Dodge Dart Sport with a slightly built 318, 3 speed on the floor back in the 80's that had dual straight pipes out the rear. When it started up, it sounded like 2 cannons going off, but then calmed to a great rumble. Normal driving it sounded great, but if you got on it, the monster...

    Ram Rear End quandry

    I agree with everyone on here that if you ordered it with 3.92's, you should have them swap them out. I would make sure when they are swapped also that they retag the front and rear ends with the proper tags so there is not confusion down the road, if anything needs to be worked on. I am curious...

    keyless entry change after flash

    Go into settings in your radio, then into doors and locks, at the bottom of the list you'll see the option to unlock just the driver's side or all locks on 1 press of your remote. That's pretty typical for 1 press for driver's and 2 presses for all locks.

    Life time warranty vs. Oil Change

    Definitely have them change it. Keeping up the terms of the warranty is the best thing you can do in the long run.

    Trouble with media center.

    Have the same problem with mine, I have a 32G usb drive in mine, I figured it was just the size of the drive, that it took so long to recognize it. But no, sometimes it starts right up other times like you say just sits there waiting for input. I found that, with mine, anything over a 1G usb...

    Engine just died on the HWY

    Sounds identical to the problem I had with my '93 ram years back. I finally ended up hooking up a fuel pressure gauge so I could see what was going on while I was driving. Sure enough, when the problem happened pressure dropped to about 5 lbs. I never thought anything of it, because I got...

    engine oil temp

    Normally I would say that 262 oil temp is high, but by the pic, it shows the truck doing 65 mph at 4000 rpm in 4th gear. That would be a real good reason why the oil is hot. Engine was working pretty hard to keep that speed up.

    5.7L Hemi fuel economy.

    I'm pretty easy on the throttle majority of the time, but you have to let the horses out once in awhile to play. Best I have ever got with my truck is 14.2, average since I bought it is 12.6. Now mind you, I do have the 3.92 gears and the area I live in, you can't go anywhere without going up a...

    Write off or repair?

    I have to agree with Beefy, I am the type that once in an accident like that, the truck would never be the same again. Plus what would concern me, is that much damage and no airbag deployment?

    Detailing: Favorite Wheel/Tire Cleaner

    For cleaning of the tires I have always used Bleche White and for cleaning of the wheels and tire dressing I use all Meguiars products. They always give me the look I desire.

    Message reset function?

    The way I have always done it is, get into your truck, shut the door, put you seat belt on, turn the ignition on (do not start the engine), once you turn it on press the gas pedal fully 3 times within 10 seconds of turning on the ignition. You may or may not hear a tone, Turn the ignition off...

    First service visit already...

    I'm hoping that you don't fall into the same situation that I fell into with my radio. I have posted on here a few times about it, but in a nutshell it took 5 months for Chrysler and the dealership too get it right. (somewhat) 3 radios later, I lost count on how many hours I spent waiting on my...

    My first oil change

    I have to agree with you on filter location, I'm not big on getting oil on the chassis of my truck, not to mention on the front drive shafts. I can't believe that the designers didn't do something like the 4.7 engines, that was impressive. A catch pan and troff built right on the engine, so the...

    13 Abs Fuse???

    There are 2 fuses for the ABS system, F06 - which is for the ABS pump (green 40 amp) and F76 - which is for the control system (red 10 amp).

    UConnect website down

    What's really insane is after I had my last new radio put in, it had software version 13.15.4 already installed, but the dealership, per Chrysler's instructions, had to "update" it to version 13.10.6. Which of course lead me down the road of a draining battery, dash lights on again and numerous...

    UConnect website down

    So yesterday I was back to the dealership to see if they can get my 8.4A radio completely working. This is now on over 4 months and 3 radios later and 6 hours in the dealership yesterday still doesn't work. But I did find out that Chrysler now has at the dealerships the newest version of...
