    60750 Miles and Exhaust Manifold leak...

    Is it the manifold or the manifold bolts?

    Grinding noise coming from the engine bay when hard accelerating at 5-6k RPM

    Here's a wild guess; Broken motor mount?

    LED HEADLIGHTS 2010 SLT

    Nope, that's the way they're suppose to work.

    Break-in locked truck

    I'm one of those guys who even locks my vehicles in my own driveway. I also tend to keep my keys on me at all times. I've found my Ram unlocked quite a few times in the driveway. I've also unintentionally activated the remote start and set off the panic alarm while working around the house quite...

    Red Line Oil

    I run Redline 5w30 and a Mobil1 filter. I tow a bassboat and a camper a lot during the Spring, Summer, and Fall. My Blackstone Labs oil analysis looked great last year. Virtually no signs of wear and the oil itself was still in great shape after 6000 miles. In the comments they wrote that I...

    Best Oil and oil filter for ram 1500 Slt 5.7 Hemi

    There are several pretty good oil filter comparisons on YouTube. One of the more recent ones compares 10 filters from ranging from cheapest to most expensive. They cover constuction, material, filtration particle size, and price. The Wix was rated fairly well in the comparison.

    NO KEY FOB. NOW WHAT?

    My thought as well. Locksmith is an easy solution, just have to be able to prove ownership.

    I've got the good old gas cap light problem- 2014 Ram 1500

    My 2011 had that issue, no idle or performance problems. I replaced the cap and cleared the codes using my OBDLink, when the problem kept coming back I replaced the purge valve. Problem resolved.

    Whistling on acceleration

    Does the whistle correlate to speed or engine RPM. If it's engine RPM, the first two things I think of is vacuum leak or idler pulley bearing.

    Remote start problem

    That's what mine did when it was throwing the evap/gas cap code. Once I cleared the code with my OBD2 MX it would work fine until the next time it threw a code. I replaced the evap solenoid and no more problem.

    AlfaOBD - Unable to Program New Keys

    I've only performed the function once to program two extra keys and it went without any problems. I don't even remember the procedure now. You might try clearing things out by disconnecting the battery for about 20 minutes. Then reconnect and try again.

    Bad Bilstein or bad install??

    I'd have to say it was a faulty installation.

    Switching from synthetic oil back to reg oil?

    It may all be some sort of coincidence, but before I started using full synthetic oil, no vehicle I ever owned made it to 100k miles before it started using oil, smoking, or had some kind of mechanical problem that could be related to engine wear or oil. My driving habits haven't changed, in...

    I went with Trail Ridge, no regrets at all.
