Thanks for the reply. Since the 3.6 has a mechanical water pump I doubt it has a control relay related to the pump but I don't actually have service data (wish I did).
I've noticed my 2018 3.6 has been slow to warm up. My first thought was a weak thermostat and I put off fixing it for a while since it would eventually reach temperature and the trans and oil temp readings were OK.
But eventually the check engine light came on and I expected to find a P0128...
I have 3 vehicles with the 3.6 Pentastar, a 2012 200 convertible, a 2018 Ram and a 2020 Charger and all of them make a light tapping on a cold start. It only lasts a second and I've stopped worrying about it. I'm pretty sure it's due to the oil draining back into the pan.
My 2018 Tradesman has the "radio 3.0" without a touchscreen. It does have Bluetooth. I use it with an add-on Sirius XM tuner connected through the Aux port and this setup has worked just fine for the past 3 years. Lately I've started to lose sound out of the left side speakers after driving a...
You can get rodent repel tape. I know Honda sells it. It is infused with the chemical that makes hot peppers hot. Made to be wrapped around the wiring so the critters don't chew through it.
Webasto makes both OEM and aftermarket sunroofs. Don't know what would work in a pickup.

I have used Bon-Ami for difficult windshield cleaning problems. The 1886 formula is what I use. GM used to recommend it. Just wet down the windshield and sprinkle it on like a powdered donut, then scrub with a cloth. It might take a couple of applications. It will even take off RainX. You...
Air in the coolant will make a waterfall sound from the right side dash. Question is why and one possibility is low coolant and that might be from a leaking cooling system and since you notice moisture in the air the leak might be the heater core.
If there is no leak you can get the air...
Got a recall letter from FCA last week saying some 2018 trucks may have an inadequate level of oil in the rear axle. If the dealer finds the level is too low they replace the rear axle. Symptoms would be a noise or whine. I crawled under my truck the day I got the letter and popped off the...
I have a 2012 3.6 in my Chrysler convertible and there is a known issue with the plastic end of the oil filter bypass valve breaking off during an oil change. The official Chrysler Co. fix is to replace the entire oil filter housing, which is a pretty big job.
Recently an inexpensive repair...
How do you know that the TSC becomes active? Not doubting but the same issue has come up in the GM truck forums and GM said TSC cannot be added to a truck if it wasn't built with it even if you add the factory trailer brake unit. I would definitely get the Mopar ITBM instead of a generic unit...
I bought a 2018 Quad Cab Tradesman this spring and I love it. There was a special at $22,900 but that only applied to folks with a bad credit rating. Chrysler actually gives a special rebate for bad credit - go figure. So it cost me $24,150 and I like the freedom from worry that comes from...
