    2017 Dodge Ram Tradesman Dash top - please tell me Im crazy and this is normal

    Hello all, I have a 2017 Dodge Ram Tradesman with 343,000 miles. So tons of miles. When I bought it the heater didnt work (bad heater core). I had a local Dodge mechanic do it. Here’s the weird part. After getting it back I swear these two humps were never on my dash. Is this normal? I dont...

    It wasnt the leaky EGR hose. After that was fixed it turned out being the Heater Core. No flow. All actuators were find. Doors in heater box fine. Its being repaired now.

    Well I wanted to give a final on this as the dealer told me all is fine. While at the dealer they also told me my heater core is bad and asked for $2400 to fix it. I said that was insane and took it to a guy who is a Certified Dodge tech but owns his own small shop. He took the truck and said...

    Well I finally caved due to lack of garage space to work on it. Took it to a local Dealer. 3 hours later. EGR hose.

    So follow up on this. I caved and took it to a Dodge dealer. Mechanic drove it and thinks its fine. Very confusing. Im going to have him change the axle fluid and do a more internal look.

    If an intake gasket were leaking would I hear the hissing noise? After 3 hours of driving it finally is getting hot again. And hissing is back. Sound front of motor and internal. Not leaking inside or outside. Must be burning internal. No smoke from pipe it smell from pipe. Any ideas???

    Thank you. I cant find a leak anywhere. I was a little low. Im going to drive it today after I did the thermostat. I figured for $100 Id try it. Its now not overheating in my driveway running 28 minutes. But I’ll drive it for a bit. Heater is still not working and the actuator is working...

    I took your advice. Thanks. As a hunch I did the thermostat assembly. It now does not overheat. And hissing gone. I think what I was hearing was the overflow tank hose. Im staying around 215-219 degrees. Also pulled out the glovebox. My recirc door us up when on heat, and down when on AC...

    Thank you. You gave me a lot to cover. Im getting into it later today. My truck also got hot today. I was idling in my car waiting to pick up my kid and it pegged the temp gauge. Nothing leaking. Still hissing. I will find the hiss and reprt back. Thank you for all your input here.

    So here’s an odd update. When I parked my truck last night it smelled a little ‘antifreezy’ when I stepped out my door. I looked all under my hood and could hear a faint ‘hissing’ up under the top motor area (under plastic cover). I looked and never could find it. An no coolant anywhere. Just a...

    I haven’t had a chance to remove the cover under the glovebox and look yet. That said I was in a parking lot waiting to pick up my son and all of a sudden it was blowing hot. And I swear I heard a ‘click/clunk’ right before it went hot. So is this like my old Dodges where you need to pull the...

    I have a 2017 Dodge Ram 2500 6.4 hemi 4x4. It has a zillion miles. 343,000. On its 2nd motor with 80k miles. Outside temperature dropped to 48 degrees today. I had to use my heater for the first time. At full temp, Inside recirc air on, and heat on full red, its blowing cold. Any ideas?
