    The roller on the post slides up and down. Try tapping it down.

    Door squeak fix

    There's a picture of what I used in the first post. Lowe's or homedepot should have them.

    Door squeak fix

    The washer I put on in my original post is still holding up and working great, haven't heard any noise in almost a year.

    Starting issue

    This morning the truck failed to remote start. Had to brave the cold and get in to start it. Started right up, no issues. Full tank of gas too so that wasn't it. Not sure what can cause these issues. Started it 5 more times during the morning errands, no issues.

    Starting issue

    Hi everyone, I'm having a starting issue with a 2017 1500 with the 5.7 and push button start. Over the summer, I went to start the truck and got a click. Jumped it and got a new battery. Not long after I had the same issue. I would try to start the truck again and it would turn right over. A...

    Synthetic Oil

    https://www.oilfilterwrenchbyjm3.com/ Looks like this is their website and you can buy them there. Shipping is almost as much as the wrench.

    Synthetic Oil

    https://youtu.be/9AhlO6Dr80o Have you guys seen these before? Looks like it would be helpful especially on these rams if someone else tightened the filter down. I have no affiliation, just thought it was cool.

    Odd starting issue

    I'll keep that in mind if it happens again but the relay seemed to fix it. Wires coming off the battery look fine and they're tight. Didn't check the start wires as the relay worked.

    Sliding rear window leak fix

    Assuming you checked the third brake light, mine was leaking from the sliding window seals.

    Sliding rear window leak fix

    I think mine had some adhesive, they got a little boogered up the first time getting them out.

    Odd starting issue

    Knock on wood, I think that was it. Fired up this morning, went to lowes and it took three tries and fired right up. Grabbed a relay and it's started 15 plus times without issue. Appreciate the advice. Never knew they could cause intermittent issues like that.

    Odd starting issue

    Thanks, that's a cheap and easy thing to try replacing. It's just odd that seconds later it fires right up.

    Odd starting issue

    Hey guys, I have a 2017 1500 with the 5.7. Recently I will try to start it and get a loud click. It happened a few months ago so I got a new battery and all was good. Now it's happening a few days a day. Got to start truck, get a loud click. The push button is in run mode so I press it to get...

    Synthetic Oil

    This was my very thinking. Sure redline 5w30 is more stout than the 0w30 but the 0w30 seemed very comparable to other brands 5w30 that I would run in other vehicles if I didn't have to worry about tick or piston slap. Hell I ran 5w20 dealership oil changes for the first 50k on this truck as it...

    How to drain gas tank?

    That's what I was thinking. Just would like to fill 5 gallon tanks to feed the generator as needed. Going to test it out when the weather calms down. Any tips that might not be obvious?

    How to drain gas tank?

    Not sure if this is the right subforum but I'm looking into the easiest way to drain gas from my 2017 1500. I tried to siphon it and ran into the antisiphon devices that are coming up in my searches. Everything works, this is more for an emergency situation as a hurricane is working its way to...

    Synthetic Oil

    Not only cheaper but the peace of mind that comes with it. Don't have to go trying and testing a bunch of oils to see what works driving yourself crazy. Don't get me wrong, I think its great guys are always looking at different oils as a solution but it seems we have the answer already. I feel...

    Door squeak fix

    Glad to hear it. Mine was the same. I tried everything but it always came back until I put the washer in.

    Door squeak fix

    To put the washer or oring on? If so it just slips over the pin or post. Takes a few seconds.

    Door squeak fix

    If that's the case, it didn't work that way on my driver door. The roller works it way all the way up the post and stays there. Then it would stop rotating due to the friction between it and the top of the post. I would lower it and lube it only to have to redo the process constantly.

    Synthetic Oil

    Just got back my uoa that I did with RL 0w30. The uoa from December 2020 is Rl 5w30 and these were done back to back. Same mileage and both with RP filter. Ran the 0w30 well into summer as I didn't want to dump it after 3000 miles. I note to blackstone that this oil had more idle time than the...
