    Synthetic Oil

    Now people are finding out ATF max life works just as well in the 8 speeds. Did you guys know these things use ZF gear fluid in their drive motors? Now ya do.

    Synthetic Oil

    Why hate on Redline? Is it because it took business away from HPL? All I know is when I have used Redline, my truck has been happier. That was on a 2017 and now a 2022.

    Synthetic Oil

    Wish I thought to make a pre-oil change video of my '22 5.7L non-etorque with 5800 miles on the odometer, but the EPA pushing for these 0w-20 oils that may as well be water is bullcrap. Just the way it flows out of the pan is cringe-worthy. Anyways, just put in Redline 5w30 with a Royal Purple...

    Ticking??? (YouTube video?)

    If you find that noise is higher up at the valve covers I'm wondering of you have a cracked valve spring, but from everything I've read on here, have the manifolds resurfaced by Ammermans (I've talked with the boss there and he had a Ram when I last spoke to him so he's well aware) and they can...

    Ticking??? (YouTube video?)

I second trying to use RL 5w-30 and put a RP 20-820 filter on there at the same time. let it sit fully overnight though tonight and get under your truck in the morning and reach up...

    I hope you will get the answer you're looking for. As for the spamming thing, just ask the mods to delete the other two identical posts and lets hope folks can get you sorted.

    Synthetic Oil

    Funny you say that about being lied to about the range. There are so many factors about what to expect on range. Interestingly enough, i took delivery of a 2023 Model Y Performance for my wife on December 27, 2023. I drove it from Bend, Oregon to Boise, Idaho in some cold ass weather I might...

    You don't use RL oil in your truck? assuming the Kirkland 5w30 with lubeguard?

    12" Screen Questions

    althoguh I don't have an answer because i'm new to the 12" screen and could honestly take it or leave it, i don't like that the heated/cooled seat and heated steering wheel settings are only available through the screen. I felt it was smart of Ram to make it accessible through physical buttons...

    Melling oil pump 10452 or 10452HV

    Seems like a waste of money to upgrade that oil pump but hey, maybe not. Maybe it's the end all, be all. lol

    What to offer for a 2023

    Like Brian stated above you can leave the OEM electric boards in the out position full-time but then I kind of feel it's a waste of money to do that and almost looks funnier when those are left out. I don't like that my Longhorn has the chrome steps and i already have enough chrome but hey...

    What to offer for a 2023

    I understand this but then it looks tacky when left out. No more so than the normal running boards from Ram but still I see your point. Touche

    What to offer for a 2023

    $2500 for those OEM steps installed i suppose isn't terrible but you can get AMP brand which are nicer in my opinion and they're actually fun to install in my honest opinion. Don't ever purchase add-ons from a dealer. Funny thing is they usually contract out window tint and spray-in liners and...

    Looks like I'm never buying RAM again...

    the irony of buying a truck and being upset it doesn't get good fuel economy. These are the same people who will spend 100k for a diesel truck "to get better fuel economy" only to pay more for maintenance and diesel fuel than gas more often than not, and never use it for what it's intended.
