Magnaflow Exhausts
Same concern here... looking to order the 19461 cat-back exhaust for my brand new Big Horn with the V6 3.6L eTorque and I can't find a single tiny video review or sound clip on YouTube or on any of the major RAM's owner forums online... this is a shame because ordering a new exhaust is something...- SimmZ

*JUNE 15th 2020 UPDATE* After 3 months of waiting, here's the conclusion of my case.

How to replace uConnect 5.0 with aftermarket 6.5-7.0in CarPlay radio (any brand)
Thank you for the advise, but unfortunately the PAC RPK4-CH4101 isn't designed to replace the uConnect 5.0. It's only to replace the 8.4c with aftermarket unit (dunno why someone would want to do that) and as for the Metra 99-6527B, it's almost perfect, however it still have a lack of a few...- SimmZ

TPMS question regarding tire rotation
How do you know for sure? You are soothsayer? :D -
TPMS question regarding tire rotation
This is EXACTLY my point... maybe I have this issue for the past 12 years on my last 4 vehicle equipped with TPMS, but NEVER taking note of it because it never failed. Then also logically if you rotate TWICE, you put back the wheel at the same place... so if you rotate twice a year, your... -
TPMS question regarding tire rotation
Well those aftermarket sensor are rated 5/5 and they have the highest reviews, so they probably work fine at some point. A DOA unit is something possible and the three other sensor work perfectly for the past 5 months. According to the professional tire shop I visited, you should never rotate... -

RAM Classic 2019 major burnt rubber smell (3+ weeks at the dealer, no fix)
They didn't took apart the exhaust yet (I think), however they perform several cleaning/buffing on the exhaust manifold, cats and mufflers and they inspected them when very hot and there's not trace of smell in this area.- SimmZ

They already replaced the entire (20+ pieces) rad hoses/elbow/etc at the first glance. It did not changed anything. :oops:- SimmZ

RAM Classic 2019 major burnt rubber smell (3+ weeks at the dealer, no fix)
Definitely! However I have the 44-45 TC myself, who doesn't have any clutches, it's all gear driven. But as for the other who have the 44-44, obviously that if it's become hot enough to smell burnt rubber, you probably already blown the clutches!- SimmZ

RAM Classic 2019 major burnt rubber smell (3+ weeks at the dealer, no fix)
If your RAM is a Sport model or upper model truck and equipped with the 44-44 automatic transfer case (4WD-AUTO), I read many threads about overheated clutches that smell burnt rubber. However in my case I have the 44-45 manual transfer case (4WD-LOCK) and it doesn't have clutches.- SimmZ
