    Internet forum guessing is only going to get you so far before you need someone who is a professional to put eyes on the problem. It is going to get expensive with the parts cannon guessing.

    Oil Filter Thread

    Viscosity of a particular oil grade is a range. You either have a light 40 weight or heavy 30 weight grade oil. They do not fall in decimal or half grades when mixing. There is calculators to figure out what grade you actually have if you have the tech data sheets of the oil used.

    Oil Filter Thread

    Sad to say, but the running average build quality of China made oil filters has outpaced many if not most USA made offerings.

    It is intellectual laziness. Like people who post the simplest of questions that could be answered readily by looking in the owners manual. It easier for them to just try and crowd source an answer and let others do the heavy lifting than just figure it out with the means already available to them.

    It is endemic on just about every vehicle forum of people only joining looking for magic bullet fixes and confirmation bias of their already bad decisions.

    Just bought a 2002 Dodge ram 1500 with 8 lug wheels

    What a mess. The only way I can see it getting sorted especially if moving to a emissions testing area/state, is to get the vehicle deemed and titled as what the frame and powertrain is.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    Yeah, you are right. I confused a H13 headlamp bulb and that will draw 4.5 amps.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    I get the point you are trying to make but most of us live in the real world that cannot afford the unknown response time of waiting on them multiple days in a row. It is unrealistic.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    Roadside assistance is contracted out third party. Dealership has nothing to do with it. Also, response times could be 30 minutes or 3+ hours.

    Issues with 2024 HD 2500 RAM

    Only thing I would add is to make sure the doors are closed and locked and have waited about an hour before pulling fuses under the hood to give time for all the modules to go to sleep. I would also suggest taking a picture of your fuse panel for later reference and as you pull each fuse, leave...

    Any update?

    Slowest-selling vehicle in America is the Dodge Ram 2500 truck

    Being that all the RAM HD's are made in Mexico does not help with Government contracts. Ford and GM have at least some USA manufacturing presence for their HD models.

    Blackstone - used oil analysis

    So even the Redline Jesus Juice of motor oils could not save it. Sad to see.

    Tesla Trucks rusting

    This! The key is breaking down "stainless" to "stain" "less" which does not necessarily mean stain free.

    Unresolved Lemon Law Claim - Two Years and Counting - 2022 Ram 1500 Limited

    I stopped going all in siding with people who only join for one reason and that is a scorched earth one sided rant. Usually things like this are more nuanced and we lack more details to really buy into this as stated.

    WOW - Rip Off Dealership

    Putting the issue of the aftermarket filter aside, Ford has grounds alone with the lack of receipts and specified oil to deny. Magnuson Moss Warranty Act also is somewhat toothless as the FTC is not going to parachute lawyers in on ones behalf to fight such things. It just give the consumer...

    WOW - Rip Off Dealership

    Did you realistically expect they were going to leave you alone every time you brought it in for a oil change? I learned long ago to stop caring about what a dealership thinks or how they try to shame me and make me fall for their BS crap. Sometimes you have to just give your junk a tug and get...

    Motul markets and sponsors pretty heavily in motorcycle motorsports, especially in Europe and Asia

    Slowest-selling vehicle in America is the Dodge Ram 2500 truck

    I get the technical detail of what you are saying, but I doubt anybody was confused by inclusion of the word "Dodge". That legacy association is a hard thing to drop out of peoples minds.

    Slowest-selling vehicle in America is the Dodge Ram 2500 truck

    Like to know where that 92 number sold in the last 45 days came from? Simple math of how many RAM dealers there is vs. that numbers gives like a less than tenth of a vehicle sold per dealer.

    After market radio help

    That was over 5 years ago. I must have linked a YT video that has either been removed or link is dead now I guess. I have slept since then so I cannot give any insight on setup again other than I just followed the PAC instructions to the letter.

    Dealership turned off dashcam before service

    On the surface, I see where you are going with this, but I would like to know if there is established case law concerning dash cam recordings and two party consent state law violations of it? I would think there would be challenges to this in areas of normal public use and interaction. Granted...

    2022 Ram 1500 display either not turning on or unresponsive to touch

    Sounds like the touch screen digitizer took a dump. Probably will be a full radio replacement.

    Dealership turned off dashcam before service

    The Dealership is still a private business. Get too indignant about it, they can just trespass you and tell you to go elsewhere.
