    Synthetic Oil

    As for oil in the truck, ive been using Qsud 5w20 with a pint of lubegard for last 2 years, tried multiple brand filters. My truck seems to like the fram ultras. Only time i heard startup clatter was short runs or moving around cars in the driveway. Qsud was not available at my local Walmart...

    failed touchscreen 2018 Uconnect 8.4

    Your truck a 2018 Sport? My drivers seat does the same thing. And my screen just started delaminating. Most, if not all the posts I've read seem to be 2018s with the screen issues.

    Throttle response controller

    I bought the Hikeit x9 a year and a half ago. Was going to post here that ive had no issues at all. If i adjusted the settings, i would do it at a red light with my foot on the brake, no issues. I found the setting i like and haven't changed it for months. This morning, i had cruise control set...

    2015 Ram Hemi needs a new battery....suggestions?

    They are made by East Penn, their big name batteries are Deka. Awesome batteries made in PA. Ive been buying their regular batteries for the last 10 years and none have let me down. Just purchased my first AGM from them a couple months ago. Hopefully i get 5+ years from it

    18" 1500 Brake squeak

    My 18 has just over 18k miles. Been sqealing for a while now. No grinding, pulling, or vibrations. Think the lube just wears off over time. Let us know what you find.

    Fueling issues

    I have a 2018 5.7, 32 gallon tank. Was always a pain since new. Gradually got worse over 3 years to the point gas would spit back out like it was full. Dealer replaced my tank. Only filled up 4xs since, but good so far

    Reasonable plug/play door speakers for 2018?

    I put kicker 6.5s in all doors, 3.5s in the dash. I think the cs series. Sound great, but absolutely no bass whatsoever. Just installed the pioneer 6x9s that wallacemf recommended above in a buddys 2500. They sound amazing for 40 or $50 a pair. If your not going to install an amp, the pioneers...

    8.4 Screen hazy, delaminating?

    I want to put a screen protector on mine, but worried the tempered glass will add weight on the factory anti glare screen and possibly cause delamination over time? Or if you buy the plastic type, if you ever had to remove it, would seem pretty easy to damage the factory screen? Torn here, whats...
