I've had the opposite situation. I had 2 Laramie's, one standard and one with the off road package. The "standard" suspension was the worst for towing my 26 foot camper followed next by the off road suspension. The off road suspension was stiffer and for whatever reason did not sway quite as...
This is true as well. The issue with the sayers perspective on this is that it's "not about the transmission failing but about doing maintenance
Yes, you sure can. That's my point. The filter is in the pan so the entirety has to be replaced. Stellantis doesn't care about the transmission...
Negative ghost rider. I wrenched for 15 years prior to advising and now managing for 10 years. The rear wheel drive version of these trans don't even have a serviceable trans filter, it's located within the molding of the trans pan itself and there is no access less a small port.
Not who I am, time to move on. I no longer work there.
Do you not think that there is information passed between ZF and Stellantis recommendations and ZF said yes they are capable? Do you not believe these transmissions are capable to run 300k without service? Fact is that most do. These...
Read what was stated. Never did I say it was a Stellantis product. I said it is IN a Stellantis product and therefore whatever recommendations are made from there is what is followed. ZF can make recommendations however they are not the final retailer. To discredit someone for giving sound...
See above post. It's not wrong information, it's exactly as Stellantis trains and how the flow chart works as well as documented with in all repair procedures. Obviously, since it's the exact information the OP has from a dealership. You can argue what you believe you want to do with the...
Let me state that differently, Stellantis lists these as non-serviceable regardless of what ZF recommends. Ultimately ZF recommendations do no matter since it is in a Stellantis product. So, as a dealership service manager no I should not know that or recommend that since the manufacture of...
I'm a service manager at a certified dealership. I'm not stating an opinion here since they can very greatly. However, these 8 speeds transmissions are non-serviceable whether it's a fluid flush or any kind of internal repair. This is the Italian design. There is a new plant in Indiana that...
They are junk motors to begin with. We are replacing the 4th one this year in my shop and they are back ordered through January 6th. Love the idea, love the mileage and I've owned one myself but they are reliability nightmares.
Thanks for the response. I typically see this happen when the truck sits for over an hour and then I go to get something out of it. When I open the door or hit the unlock button it must wake up the modules and then the pump may or may not come on just for a couple of seconds.
I'm new to air ride although this is my 4th gen 5. When the truck is off and parked then I open the door to get something out the air compressor will occasionally run even though the truck never starts. Is this normal?
My main issue I have with my 2019 is the tow mirrors. You pay to "upgrade" to the tow package and the mirrors are a major downgrade. For the first years of the 5th gen there's no power fold, you loose the 360 degree camera, there's no dimming at night and the worst part is you're actually...
