    2011 Laramie Longhorn rattle

    No I haven't but mine only does it is overdrive at 1400 RPM. As soon as it down****s it stops. Maybe nothing to worry about but I do.

    Factory remote start and heated seats

    I guess you were correct. 25 degrees outside today and heated seats and steering wheel come on with remote start now. Hey that's kind of an ingenious setup. I thought I would have to change the settings for summer and then back for winter but the RAM is smarter than I thought.

    Factory remote start and heated seats

    thanks guys I was wondering about the outside temp issue....I guess I'll find out tomorrow morning. My 2011 Uconncect radio didn't have all those fancy options, in fact I just replace the OEM uconnect with a new Alpine with newer technology.

    Factory remote start and heated seats

    I wasn't sure what to put in the title. I got this pristine 2011 Laramie Longhorn in February of this year and I swear I had the remote factory starter setup to the seat position, radio, mirrors and temp but I am certain the I had the heated seats and steering wheel come on too. I really...

    2011 Laramie Longhorn rattle

    Thanks for the idea, that's really what it sounds like or at least the noise sounds like. No I haven't had anytime to look further right now, my grandson got married this weekend and I have been pretty busy. I might get out there today and look around.

    2011 Laramie Longhorn rattle

    I am a new owner of a 2011 Laramie Longhorn. Just lovin all the options and looks and condition of it. I bought from a private owner and one always wonders if there were any issues with it that caused them to sell privately. The ONLY thing I have found so far after 6 months is a noise. It's...

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Yes, it looks like it might be dog scratches. Now that I have a Sheltie that likes to ride he is starting to prop up there from the back floor so I have to take a rag along so it doesn't happen again. I might have to get a cover like "tidefan1967" showed me in the second post, if I can find...

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Yes, I dyed the entire lid except for the Laramie badge. Because of the lighter colored thread that it was sewen with I didn't want to touch it.

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Well I got the Dye from Seat Doctors and it's a perfect match. I'm ecstatic with the results. Take a look again at before and after. I also used MANY leather conditioners and found the best as Meguires Gold Leather Conditioner.

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Well tried all the conditioners I could find but that didn't help. Was ready to try the Paint/Thinner idea when I stumbled across the Seat Doctors Dye website. I ordered a bottle with my VIN number and interior Color Code. It should be here Thursday. Hopefully, it will be a perfect match...

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Hummm...since I could do just the console I might take a chance. I could even take console lid off and do in garage.

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Except for covering the issue, I see 113 views and no solutions. I guess I'll have to live with it. I'm still trying all the leather conditioners I can find to see if it will help improve or mask the problem. So guys take care of your leather before it gets to this.

    Laramie Leather Scratch Help

    Just got this baby in February. 2011 with 74000 miles on it. It's in sweet condition except for some leather wear. I've tried all kinds of conditioner and have "Leather Milk" coming tomorrow. I'm just afraid it's past conditioner help. Has anyone had any luck restoring leather like this...

    Tailgate Light Bar Wiring

    Hey thanks for all the input and opinions. You guys are great. SO I might as well abuse you all with one last question. My Laramie is a 2011 and has a hole to drop the spare. I'm not sure what the newer ones use, but has anybody worked around that issue?
