    3rd Party Warranty

    I'm curious to know what some of you have decided to purchase for a 3rd party warranty. I've read that Endurance is pretty good but curious on everyone's experience.

    Fix it, Trade it, Sell-It?

    Got one of those situations where I am having a hard time deciding do I fix my truck, trade-it while it has no CEL and otherwise drives decent, or Sell it and just wait and be patient? I have a 2011 Ram 1500 with 165k miles on it. I just bought it recently and never had a CEL and still doesn't...

    Engine knock (lifters, rockers, springs?)

    Here's a video of what my truck is doing. Sound only. Phone is on the driver front tire. https://youtube.com/shorts/BO6XpFpofsY?si=MF41DO_VKqRaZet6 Louder when at idle especially cold, not s noticeable in higher rpm. Doesn't get noisier or more noticeable. Got this truck for cheap so I'm ok...

    545rfe Relearn Procedure and Options

    Hello all, will a scan tool from an auto parts store be able to do a quick learn on the 545rfe transmission. After getting my 2011 Ram 1500 from marketplace I can tell the trans has brand new fluid in it. The atf on the dipstick looks brand new even after dipping a few times. With that being...

    Bought a 2011 Ram Sport 4x4 - 165k miles

    I knew it wouldn't be too long before I couldn't help myself and purchase an older Ram (2011) that had been taken great care of in terms of body paint and interior. I paid $12,500 for it mostly because of it having a new Bakflip tri fold cover and a ton of recent maintenance done as well. Aside...

    Winter wonderland

    Here in beautiful McCall Idaho. It doesn't get much prettier in the winter than here. The Ram sure does fit right in! She's back in her element as she began her journey as a Canuck for first 5 years.

    Royal Purple Direct (Checkout Inop)

    Hey all, if you're trying to buy anything on the Royal Purple Direct website like a new oil filter, you may run into a strange error code when checking out. No there isn't an issue with your form of payment. They seem to be having a general checkout error where you can't finish the order and...

    Capacitive Discharge on a Ram

    **article provided below** granted its by a guy who covers mostly VW I watched a very interesting video about something called capacitive discharge. Just like it sounds, apparently when a modern vehicle begins to act strangely electronically speaking, on some vehicles you can touch the positive...

    5 to 10 second exhaust tick....ONLY SOMETIMES?

    Have any of you guys ever experienced what sounds like the exhaust manifold tick but it only lasts maybe 10 seconds at most and does not happen that often? Does piston slapping sound anything like the manifold tick and would make more sense that if it's only every once and awhile that it...

    PCV Valve $35 Cheap Insurance

    To put it simply, this is by far the easiest but most valuable part not to neglect. If you are over 100k miles, and you're not sure if your pcv valve has ever been replaced, replace it. Even if you're at 30k, pull it out give it a shake and listen for it to make a clacking noise as you shake it...

    Mopar Official Parts Best Rep?

    Who's the go-to for official mopar parts on here? With a million "official" parts websites that all want insane shipping fees, I would imagine someone on here can get some better prices for stuff. My local dealer isn't great to deal with.

    Blower Motor Potentially Going Out? Unusual Fan Noise

    Hey friends, I wanted to ask if you can listen to this video of an up and close recording of the noise of my Blower motor and it's a little noisier than this but not by much when it's really cold in the interior. Maybe a cleaning or wd-40 to the motor shaft would help? I haven't removed it yet...

    Remote Start Inop @ 18°F and Whining

    This is a weird one and I can't pinpoint what's going on but it seems temp related. Here goes... Two days in a row now, it's been 18 degrees F. I attempted to remote start my 2017 Ram 4x4 Limited (62k miles) and it cranks fine from starter then attempts to run only to act like it can't turn...

    Amsoil Transmission Fluid in ZF 8 speeds

    Has anyone done a full trans fluid replacement using the amsoil recommended fluid for the ZF 8HP70? Whats your experience snd did you do a full drain and fill x3 to get 90%+ OE fluid out? Always makes me wonder how one fluid can react with another. There must be enough similarities that they are...

    Cold Trans Shifting Quality in 4wd Auto vs 2wd

    Ok, i know this is gonna sound really weird or ridiculous as it would seem that there would be no difference in 2WD and 4WD Auto in dry-road condition driving in terms of the 8HP70 cold shifting performance. Recently, I decided I would check the fluid level for my 8 speed trans and saw that I...

    Redline Oil - Which rating is best for the 5.7?

    Ok, so I have seen a wide range of different oil viscosity rating choices by the many members here who are doing their best to avoid any cam/lifter future failures on the 5.7L. From what I have seen it appears that most of us (to include myself) uses 5W-30 when using Redline oil. Now, I would...

    Redline/RP Filter Before and After

    Hey friends, Decided to do the old 5w30 Redline oil and 20-820 Royal Purple filter combo. I'm happy with the post install psi for sure and engine is quieter. Man that clearance was a bit tight for sure but I did it. Went from 32-34 psi on the 5w20 castrol edge with mobil 1 ep filter to 42-44...

    Feeling of Something Rubbing through Steering Wheel/Seat

    Ok, This one has me a bit stumped. I have a 2017 Ram Limited 4x4 with 60k miles. Explanation of issue: I am getting this weird almost tire rubbing type of feel in the steering wheel and seat when I turn left or right at lower speeds. At least that's when I notice it the most. This doesn't...

    Elite Race Fab Order - Have you also received extra oil???

    I placed an order with eliteracefab for 7 quarts of 5W-30 Redline oil to pair up with the 20-820 RP filter and to my surprise, 2 gallons (or 8 quarts worth showed up). I'm not exactly concerned about that as it's at least more than less but the stupid ****** gallon bottles don't have a way to...
