    Still getting used to my diesel

    When I start my truck up, I usually let it run for a minute before I take off, when I drop it in D and go it sounds like I can hear the fan or something like it kick on for about 10-20 seconds while accelerating and then it quiets back down. It usually only does it when I first start it up and...

    Weekly Shifting?

    So the truck sits for a around a week most of the time or even up to 15 days sometimes before being started. Over 6k miles. I run Redline 5W20 (going on a full year). Based off how often I drive I'll be conducting yearly oil changes with 5W-20 (not the 5W-30 because that may be too thick for...

    Surging idle after overnight cold soak

    I am new to owing a Ram so I am not familiar with what is normal for these trucks. When I first start up after letting the truck sit overnight the idle surges/searches for a few seconds before it smooths out. It runs fine afterwards and doesn't have the wondering idle again until the next...
