    2013 4.7 dead?

    I’ve tried to take decent care of this one, it has gotten 5-6k oil changes with full synth its entire lifespan of 166K. Pretty much no varnish either. I’m going to see tomorrow if it’s salvageable, i’m hoping it’s just a rod bearing.

    2013 4.7 dead?

    Never mind, you were right. Oil was more metal than oil. Probably going to 5.7 swap, don’t want to deal with another 4.7 failure in 160k.

    No loose rods either.

    2013 4.7 dead?

    Just dropped the pan. No metal in the pan at all, some coolant from taking off the timing cover. Looked up, everything looks OK with the pistons, and after moving them around a bit, the cylinder walls look good too. I am at a loss.

    2013 4.7 dead?

    I’m mainly wondering how it could be a rod bearing if it was just fine a few hours prior to the ticking you hear in the videos. I can get piston skirt, but not rod. I also hear nothing when using a mechanics stethoscope on the crank.

    If it is a skirt, would it still be hearable in flood mode?

    2013 4.7 dead?

    I know it’s not a rod. This happened after a heat cycle. It also does not improve at all when it gets warmed up.

    2013 4.7 dead?

    I have a 2013 4.7 ram with just under 170K on the odometer. Engine has ticked on start for the past 6 or so years. Always went away when it got hot so i didn’t think much of it. Recently, i took it on a drive. I noticed the ticking was a little louder but nothing to be concerned about. When i...

    2013 4.7 bogging down

    For whatever reason i don’t seem to get notifications on here. I don’t think the cats are clogged, and if they were, wouldn’t it be constant and maybe have a CEL for catalyst efficiency?

    Forgot to add that there’s no codes either.

    2013 4.7 bogging down

    Hi everyone I have a 2013 ram 4.7 that bogs down at around 4000 rpm when it’s floored. I took it to the dealership, they said that the transmission needed to be replaced even though according to what i saw it was fine. I let them replace it as i have maxcare on the truck and it wouldn’t cost...

    2013 ram transmission issues.

    I need to mention that the hesitation in 4th only happens occasionally too. Sometimes it’s very smooth.

    2013 ram transmission issues.

    Hi everyone… I have recently inherited my dads truck as he was recently involved in a work accident. It is a 2013 ram 1500, and it has some issues. He neglected it since he owned it and it’s been in the family since new. Went 10-13K on conventional oil on the 4.7L, (yet somehow still burns...
