    If you belt sand manifolds, the dust can bond to the clearcoat

    For those not able to get it detailed by pros, I'd do an automotive acid body wash to help remove the initial fall-out contamination, and then I would do a thorough clay bar of the entire vehicle, too. Then wash it thoroughly afterwards with a great soap product, and then seal it up afterwards...

    Three Camshaft replacements within a year

    By all accounts, this is not normal! I would ensure you obtain the detailed report from the dealership for all the warranty work, and I would also reach out to @RamCares with this, too. This is significant surgery on any engine, period! But to have it done three times with no reasoning from...

    After tranny fluid change, how long until it’s mixed up?

    While I understand the sentiment... do not put anything but the recommended fluid in these tranny's, period. I would say to drop the pan and do a full gravity drain, overnight if possible, and then refill with fresh fluid and then drive. Ensure you follow the correct refill procedures, and...

    Under seat subs?

    If you're looking for high quality and hard detailed hitting bass... look at these ones. I now have 2100W of total amp power in my 23', but I originally started with 1600W and a single one of these subs and no capacitor. It was nice, but I needed more. Added 500W to the mix and the...

    Under seat subs?

    These hit hard and clear and can handle lots of power! Audiomobile EVO 2410. They can be stuffed into small boxes. Just stuff the boxes with poly-fil I'd also recommend a 5-farad db digital capacitor, too. They fit perfectly under my back seat with no need for the seat raise mod. Just ensure...

    Synthetic Oil

    I've used Seafoam for years... I'd dump a half can in the crankcase about 500Km's before an oil change, dump a full can in the tank, and I'd siphon off a can of it via the brake booster line while someone held throttle at about 2,000rpm until the can was empty. Shut off and let sit for about 10...

    Slight ticking/flutter noise under load

    perhaps dump in two bottles of Red Line SI-1 fuel system treatment on an empty tank and fill with premium fuel. Drive it till empty and then refill with premium. Also, do an oil & filter change after the first tank of fuel that was treated. Use a good quality 5W30 synthetic oil and a quality...

    Yikes! Look What the Dealership Wants For This Easy Service

    While I'm not advocating for dealer services nor their crookery in pricing, but, if one is not handy oneself nor has a good independent shop that backs their work, using a dealership can provide insurance, per say to the vehicle owner. For things like the front & rear diffs, and the brake...

    Tires make all the difference in the world!

    Fantastic tires! I had them on my then 19' 1500 Classic all last summer and really enjoyed them. Put about 20,000Km's on them. I ended up obtaining a Michelin warranty for all four of them, and they replaced them all for me. So, now my new Warlock has a brand new set of them that just went on...

    2020 1500 limited bounces after 2in level

    ^^^ This!! It's not slander, it's a PSA to help other members here not get shafted by hacks who know nothing about doing this work correctly. They only know how to scam and fraud out hard working honest enthusiasts.

    WTB: AFE Y pipe for 4th gen 1500

    Perhaps consider sourcing a good custom exhaust shop and having a nice y-pipe custom made. I went that route and it was an immediate night & day difference how my HEMI was breathing & flowing. Worth every single penny to have it made up and installed properly. Edit - the shop even made custom...

    The unwanted step child car.

    I listened to a pod cast with her a little while back, and she was talking about a time when she was 14 and pretty much a roadie at the time & travelling all over the place. She was at a concert where the lead singer of The Animals (Eric Burden) invited her to his hotel room after the show and...

    Tires make all the difference in the world!

    Before I took ownership on my new Warlock I had the brand new stock Good-For-A-Year RSA's removed and had brand new 35" Michelin Defender LTX M/S LT 10-ply's installed.

    REACHING OUT

    While I hear you on this (re: waiting until the factory powertrain warranty is up), and don't necessarily disagree with your thought process overall. However, as I've learned from my dealership buddy (who's also the Service Manager, too)... Having the Dealership do this transmission service...

    Cabin Air Filter

    Quit bragging about yer low mileage... lol ;) I'm about to turn 8,000Km's on my new Warlock that's turning 10 weeks old this Friday.

    Cabin Air Filter

    I replace mine with standard filters every 4-months, regardless. I put it in my Outlook calendar...lol (or I'd never remember it...) When I take them out, they absolutely present as requiring a change. However, I do drive a lot, and in many different road and/or environmental conditions.

    2022 Ram 1500 Throttle/downshifting issues

    Has the dealer checked the fluid level in the transmission? And yes, I hear ya on what a bad accelerator pump feels like...lol ;) Dating myself a bit, too :) Are you comfortable and confident with this dealer? If you have any doubts and/or questions about it, perhaps source another dealer and...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Stick with the Magnaflow is my $0.02... Great tone and subtle...makes the HEMI sound great. At WOT it wakes up and let others know there's a HEMI under the hood ;)

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Yes..pics, and... how did you mask it off and was it their glossy or standard spray? I'm wanting a dull/matt finish and not glossy... that would stand out too much on the front grill. I, too want to do this with the RAM on the front grill as my whole theme is black & copper.. I'll also do the...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    I had a 22" Magnaflow and switched it to a 14" Magnaflow. It sounds sweet! And from a standstill at WOT, it barks nicely on the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. The 3-4 & 4-5 shifts are super nice as well.
