    Additional UAQ/UAS Update Files 28.3/30.24/34.2

    It's a OnePlus 7t, the cable that came with it, and all apps are up to date according to the play store. I just got an over the air update to 20.37.11 today. We will see if that is any better. I doubt it is the cable causing issues, because the head unit locks up most of the time before I...

    Additional UAQ/UAS Update Files 28.3/30.24/34.2

    I guess I am just going to disable AA unless I go on vacation and want to use Nav. It's so buggy. Especially when I get out for just a minute before it completely powers down. Half the time when I get back in, it is locked up, no buttons work. Or the backup cam switches on and turns solid...

    Did you ever get the heated wheel issue straight? Just to be sure...it works, but just doesn't have an onscreen indicator? Does the like on the physical button work?

    Radio randomly freezes

    I've got most of the same issues with lockups, freezes, reboots, blue screen instead of backup screen and the favorites issue. Not to mention the 2018 radio only holds like 20 favorites. I had a 2017 and I must've favorited everything that came on. I get the whole favorites are full delete...

    2018 Ram 8.4 radio, Favorites acting weird for XM

    Mine 2018 locks up or freaks out at least once every day. Latest thing is I get a solid bright blue screen instead of backup camera. It will reboot after about 2 minutes and sometimes work, sometimes reboot again. One day after driving for an hour with someone in the truck and the radio...

    Swapped 2017 Big Horn 2WD V6 for 2018 Big Horn 4WD HEMI!!!

    I had a Blue 2017 Ram 1500. I bought it new in May of 2018. It was one of 2 2017 still on the lot. I got a smoking deal on it. But deep down, I wanted a Hemi and 4WD. But at the time even the used trucks they had were more than the new 2017. But a few weeks ago, I saw one. I'm not...

    Active grill shutters affecting fluid temps

    Pulling a small 20ft ski boat to Heber Springs, going up 1 moderate hill before my brother's place, my old 3.6 hit 245 and I was like WHOA!, but as soon as I got back on level ground, it was down in the 220's in less than 30 seconds. Still, too hot for my blood!

    Uconnect and Android Auto issues

    Did you ever figure this out? I just traded my 2017 Big Horn on a 2018 Big Horn. Mainly to get the Hemi and Android Auto. I have a OnePlus 7t on Android/Oxygen 10.0.12. I've tried all kinds of cables and different settings. Yesterday I got the AA icon on the truck radio for a few seconds...

    Bye Bye Big Papa Smurf. Hello, Gray. I traded in my 2017 3.6 CC Big Horn 2wd for a 2018 5.7 Hemi 4x4. Pretty sweet, I got upgrades to heated cloth seats, heated steering wheel, and if I can ever get it working, Android Auto.

    Trying not to be that guy, but if I could trace it to where it goes, I would know what it is.

    It's 2wd, so that makes sense. Thanks!

    V6 Ram owners what is your MPG??

    I keep track of my mileage with Fuelly. It's usually close to what the avg says on the dash. That being said, I drive 14 miles to work each way, about half is interstate and the rest is a rural 2 lane with 3 stop signs. If I drive between 70-75 on the interstate and between 40-45 on the 2...

    Unknown hose nex to oil filter

    I changed this oil this morning. I've just moved this hose out of the way in the past, but today I noticed it looked like it has a plastic elbow not connected to anything. I unclipped it and it looks open. I searched all around and couldn't find a fitting or hose it goes in to. I started the...

    Synthetic Oil

    I swear 4 weeks ago, it wasn't available. They didn't even have quarts...or only had 2 or 3 available online. I might just go ahead and stock up while they have it!

    Gas mileage on the 3.6 V6

    Yes, if I am going more than 70 and come up a .0005% incline it kicks to 7th. If there is a headwind of more than 3mph it kicks to 7th. I try to get on the interstate and keep it around 75mph. On flat ground (like eastern Arkansas) I can avg 22-23mpg. But head up thru middle and east TN into...

    Synthetic Oil

    Does anyone know why it seems QSUD is hard to find? I was buying it off WalMart's website for $19.99 a jug but a month ago they didn't have it anymore. I finally got 2 jugs from Advance Auto, but paid $33 a piece. Maybe WalMart caught on to the steal??

    Adding Sub To 2015 Big Horn With Stock Audio System

    I put a sub behind the rear driver's seat. It's a self powered 8" Rockville Sub. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B019Z3RFGY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's not earth shattering, but you can feel the music. I modded my rear seat to fold forward and there's plenty of...

    New truck MODS...now showing..Sorry dealer service department

    So one thing I haven't liked since I first got the truck is the horrible stock headlights. I mean the foglights are literally brighter...my wife even commented recently. She has a Equinox with HID's and she asked if I forgot to turn my headlights on. Ok, that's it. I looked around and found...

    Glad you got them. Did you have a blockage in your vent pipe as well?

    Do you have a Pull A Part or similar junkyard nearby? Might be the easiest way to get one.

    New truck MODS...now showing..Sorry dealer service department

    Are you talking where it connects to the hardline that goes up by the gas cap? There's plastic tabs on each side you have to squeeze them in while jiggling and pulling the connector off. You can kind of see it in the pics on the previous page of this thread.

    Trouble putting fuel in tank

    I had this on my 2017 V6 Ram and ended up fixing it myself after the dealer F'd around for an entire week like dumbasses. It was an easy 15 minute fix. https://www.ramforum.com/threads/new-truck-mods-now-showing-sorry-dealer-service-department.121770/page-5#post-1805660

    3.6 Pentastar Issues Thread

    My complaint is the engine is so small, it is WAAAAY down in there. I think if work is ever done, it will be perfectly easy to stand between the radiator and the engine. But for oil changes, it's almost like laying down on the core support to reach in there. Otherwise it's so stupidly simple...

    ATTENTION ALL V6 Ram 1500 owners

    The exhaust tips will swivel down and clear a flat bumper. But I got a bumper off ebay for less than $400. Also, since I did this, there has a been an exhaust rattle at idle in gear. If you breathe on the gas pedal it goes away. It doesn't do it in neutral. I triple checked every clamp...

    2017 Straight rear bumper with sensor holes & stock 3.6 Crew Cab exhaust
