    Exhaust Bolts - delaying repair

    I would be worried about warping your exhaust manifold. The heat cycles could warp it, then your replacing it too. I had mine done under warranty. And I left it too long they had to replace the manifold. Glad it was under warranty. Just my 2 cents.

    Oh deer

    Thanks again everyone. Convinced the wife to let me buy a metal bumper. You know for HER safety. I’ll try 4wheelparts Lyle. I know they have one at the coast in Langley.

    Oh deer

    Thanks for the advice Tron. I’ve already noticed the headlight is shifted and the corner of the fender is bent and chipped. I’m going to climb under it tomorrow and get a better look. It drove and braked straight. Those were the first two things I checked.

    Oh deer

    Thanks, I just looked at the Ranch Hand’s lineup but the only one for my 2015 sport looks like it belongs on the walking dead. I don’t need it to run deer down just to keep them off the paint.

    Oh deer

    I faintly saw the mother Doe up on the hillside right before Bambi made a fatal life decision. She died almost instantly. To my advantage Highways was right behind me and pulled over. I must have been visibly upset because he told to relax it’s alright it’s only a deer. I said oh I don’t care...

    New pads at 31k??? Really?

    I’ve got 80,000km from the fronts and 85,000km + out of the rears. Light towing. Change your brake fluid. Previous owner was probably a brake rider and overheated the fluid. I had a soft pedal at 70,000 km, fluid change fixed 90% of the problem.

    Benefit of 8 speed?

    I had a 2014 St with the 6 speed for 6 months and I traded in for a 2015 Sport with the 8 speed and gained 150km (93 miles) to my range with the same size tank. Right now I do a lot of country road driving and I get 800km + ( roughly 500 miles) to a tank or 19mpg! Way more responsive altho when...

    Is ticking "normal" or a lifter problem?

    Jon at BoostedMotorsports on YouTube has a video of how to do it yourself. I had the passenger side done by the dealer under extended warranty but if the drivers side doesn’t go in 3 months (end of warranty) I’ll be doing it myself. It’s a really good video.

    Shady business from the service advisor

    It’s not that I’m not happy. I have got my monies worth out of my warranty. It’s the shady business around it. Before you ask a customer to pay $1200 wouldn’t you see if 1. It’s covered under warranty? And 2 if they have an extended warranty? But no he wanted me to pay, I know they don’t make as...

    Shady business from the service advisor

    So here is the backstory..... Went into the dealership with my ‘15 Ram before the new year for an oil change. The service advisor told me before my truck was finished he said my control arm bushings were worn. $1200 repair. I asked what about my warranty. He said it wasn’t covered, then it was...

    Cab doesn't get very warm in below 0* temps

    These Canadians winters can be cold. I didn’t know I had a block heater until I googled it. Passenger side above the headlight. My feet are always cold in this truck. I run the combined vent as well and have just learned to wear an extra pair of socks.

    Can my 2016 ( 1500 5.7 Hemi ) 4x4 Extended cab Cary a 2200 lb Truck Camper

    If you want that camper, buy a trailer, put the camper on that then you have room for a patio or to haul toys.

    What actually causes hemi tick?

    I would first confirm it’s not a broken manifold bolt. Which is covered under warranty.

    Oil changes dealer scam

    1000k!?!?? $600 a year for 10 is $6000 that’s very expensive insurance.

    Oil changes dealer scam

    I’ve been there with a service advisor.. you should really change your oil every 5000k, oil breaks down and can damage your engine. Also could void your warranty he said. I called him out on the manual saying 16000 k or once every 12 months. He told me that was the bare minimum. I asked if...

    Width question “no not that kind”

    I think what he was referring to is some people drive to the nearest service station to air back up. And pulling in they can pop a bead.

    How do you know if you have 3:21 or 3:92?

    I heard the Canadian trucks are rated at 395 MoosePower, which is a much more majestic power rating system. Also I believe the horn goes “Sorry” instead of “Honk”. I apologize, my Canadians is showing. My 2015 Ram came with locking rear and 3.92. I love how this thing peels out at every...

    Why are there so few 6’4 long beds out there?

    I’ve got a 2015 1500 sport crew cab 6’4” box. I’ve had people in traffic ask if it’s a 6 footer crew cab and one guy asked if it was for sale! Doesn’t fit....anywhere, garage parking stalls anywhere. Fits a quad in the back. Great truck.

    Rear wheel fell off while towing motorcycle trailer

    Can you show us a picture of the front of the wheel to see how many lug nut marks are on the other side. No marks no lug nuts. Someone might have taken them off. If you have marks then maybe they have loosen over time. No one checks their lug nuts I only check every 6 months when it comes back...

    The Hemi tick. A good news story.

    It took the Stealership 1 day, they had to extract 1 stud and replace the manifold due to warping. Dropped it off 830pm the night before and picked her up at 430pm the next day. Don’t know what that would have cost but the $1500 extended warranty seems to be paying for itself right about now.

    The Hemi tick. A good news story.

    I have a 2015 1500 sport, 5.7 8 speed. I noticed the tick a couple weeks ago and it’s progressively gotten louder. Reading on here I had some worries it was the lifters. But I took my truck in for an oil change and asked them to check the noise before the oil change. They called and said it was...
