Block coolant flush after cam
I'm putting everything back together after a cam and lifters swap. When I was cleaning the top of the block and pistons, a bunch or nasty gunk got into the water jacket, and I need to flush it. If I dump distilled water in through the hole circled in red, it'll come out of the holes circled in...- jelih

Take intake manifold to the carwash?
I'm changing cam and lifters this weekend (and probably next weekend too), and I've got all these dirty parts lying around that I want to clean up a bit before I put them back on. I'm sure I saw on another thread someone suggested taking the intake manifold to the car wash and spraying it out...- jelih

High Voltage DTCs
Can anyone offer suggestions for these codes? Just started on the way to work yesterday. I get a split second dash message of "service electronic braking system" and it kicks me out of cruise control. It also flickers the headlights a bit sometimes. And once the dash went completely dark for a...- jelih

Having A/C blower motor issues?
Last year in the heat of the summer one day, I suddenly had no AC. Uconnect said it was on, but no air flow. So I did what most of you do and came here frantically looking for solutions. I ended up changing the fuse, relay, and eventually the blower motor itself. That seemed to fix it, until...- jelih

Using oil?
I've had my 2014 Hemi Ram for just over a year now. I've consistently had to put a quart of oil in every two weeks since I've had it. The pan gasket leaked when I first got it but the dealer fixed that and there are no more oil spots on the drive way. I can't tell that it leaks at all. It...- jelih

AC / unused fuse TIPM question
I have intermittent AC blower not working issues. It only doesn't work on hot days, but when it works, it works as it should, blows hard, no weird noises or smells. I initially changed the relay, I'm about to change the blower itself. Mine is the unit with the resistor built in. I went to check...- jelih

A La Carte tuning?
All I want to do is permanently disable MDS and program fan on/off temps for the v6 fan swap. I don't want any performance tuning at all at the moment. What's the cheapest way to go about this? If the consensus is someone local, then I could use recommendations for someone in or around...- jelih

Coolant leak - part identification
Did a coolant flush last weekend. Swapped the 180° thermostat the previous owner had in it for a 192°, and it has worked great for keeping temps stable. But for the last 2 days I’ve been smelling coolant but couldn’t find a leak, and today coming out of the gas station there was a small puddle...- jelih

Should I be happy?
I bought a 2014 Lonestar CC about about 3 weeks ago. I drove it from Houston to Austin the next day, and have put about 1000 miles on it in that time. The CEL came on literally as I was getting in the truck to leave for Austin, but I changed the purge valve about a week ago and that seems to...- jelih

2014 Leveling: Solved or nah?
I recently bought a stock 2014 Lone Star CC 2WD, and I so very badly want to level it, but after reading the threads on here for a little over a week, I think I'm more confused than when I started. Some of you have just used the cheapish pucks and are fine, but a lot have had OEM UCA ball joint...
