    32 Gallon Tank Upgrade

    Another money wrench to add to this, sometimes it can be the filler neck causing the fuel nozzle cutoff. I had my filler neck replaced with the newer style, and also do not have the problem where the nozzle is difficult to put into or remove from the filler neck.

    Is there any way to test the auto dimming function of the mirror(s)?

    Hold a flash light in the area above the rear view mirror at night, the rear view and one side view mirror should dim. If you have the higher trim model, both side view mirrors will dim. Assuming it is working correctly, and you actually have the function.

    Key Fob stopped Working

    For me, it was the semicircle pads that are glued to the underside of the rubber buttons on the FOB. I bought a cheap aftermarket FOB on Ebay (came with 2) and swapped that piece into my FOB. This was only happening with my remote start button; it was actually causing the truck to start on...

    What Toolbox do you have in your 4th Gen Ram?

    I did a Weatherguard (I removed the logos) as well: I also added a roll up cover (I don't think they make the cover anymore) love being able to cover the bed AND have a toolbox:

    Signs of being in a flood?

    If they live along the TX coast, and near the beach, there can be rust just from the air. For example, North/South Padre Island. Do you have any idea where the truck was registered, serviced? Also, my 3rd Gen Ram had rust under the dash, very similar to your picture, but never had any flood...

    warranty denied

    MaxCare Lifetime warranty. 88k miles, just had the starter replaced with my $100 deductible. Still glad I got it and have many many more mile ahead.

    Break-in locked truck

    Yeah, I figured it was an aspect of the FOB/Push button setup (with the door handle button), instead of the unlocking with the FOB. I just didn't know how to explain what I meant. My 2008 Audi will auto lock if you use the FOB to unlock the doors and don't open a door or hood/trunk. It does...

    Break-in locked truck

    Are you sure FOB/Push Botton equipped Rams don't do this by FOB proximity (as a setting)?

    Break-in locked truck

    My 2008 Audi A4 will do this. If you open any door, trunk or hood it will not auto lock to prevent infants getting locked inside.

    Looking for quality LED 9005’s for highbeams in OE Premium Projector headlights.

    I have these LED 9005 high beams in my OEM projectors (I had aftermarket projectors but recently bought some OEM projectors). So far I'm happy with them. I have HIDs in my low beams. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HCZ4VCH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    LED's in OE Premium Projectors- what works?

    The problem is that LEDs are not sending light 360 degrees like halogens and HIDs. Even if you get LEDs that can rotate for best output, the parts that block light affect the light output. LED bulbs are superior to halogen except for this problem. This is why you need projectors designed for...

    Transmission Fluid / Service

    I was replying to you, to basically let you know that you were not actually answering the question I was asking, nor were you the person I originally quoted... I was responding to another post that stated that there were auto manufactures that recommended ZF fluid changes, by asking for...

    Transmission Fluid / Service

    As far as I know, BMW calls it "long-term" and does not recommend fluid changes (my BMW is stick, but I just looked it up), Audi does not (I have an A4), I believe MB also does not describe an oil change interval. Volvo, I have no idea.

    Transmission Fluid / Service

    I'm trying to see which Auto manufactures (using ZF transmissions) recommend fluid changes. So far since I've had my first ZF in my A4, I've only heard of people on forums saying ZF recommends fluid changes, but I haven't heard of an auto manufacture using a ZF recommending it. So, the member...

    Transmission Fluid / Service

    I'm just wondering. Which other manufactures using ZF transmissions recommend oil changes?

    Transmission Fluid / Service

    The ZF trans, like the ZF trans in Audi ARE considered non-serviceable by the auto manufactures that use them in their vehicles. As the service manager, @Podcast is not wrong. The trans manufacture has a listed a service interval, but that is with the understanding that the service is done at...

    Maxcare warranty and dealer....problems

    Just an FYI, I have a 2008 Audi A4 with a ZF trans. Audi also has a lifetime fluid interval in the manual. I have not touched the fluid with 130+k miles on it, still shifts like day 1. I wont touch my fluid in the Ram and my MaxCare lifetime service contract (or let a dealership touch it)...

    "What DON'T you like about your 5th Gen RAM"?

    I would assume this feature is also a reminder to those who park in a garage, there is always the risk that someone may accidentally leave it running and risk CO poisoning (mainly for an attached garage).

    another big brother feature

    Honestly I have never tried opening the door in gear with the parking brake on. I have only had the auto park engage 1 time unplanned, it was an instance where I turned the dial quickly trying to put it in park, but for some reason it I only got it to R. It did it's job and as soon as the...

    another big brother feature

    Do you have the ZF Transmission (dial) or one with a column shifter? The problem is with the dial shifters, where either the user thinks they are in P, when they actually only turned it to R, or the computer that shifts the mechanical selector somehow doesn't make it all the way to P before the...

    fuel tank

    K. So it seems Ram Classics have the same tank options as the rest of Gen 4's. So, you have the smaller tank at 26, 32 was the bigger option.

    fuel tank

    I have no idea if the Ram Classics have the same tank options as the "true" 4th Gen rams. 4th Gen rams had 26 and optional 32 gallon tanks. I have the 32.
