    Getting an appointment for dealer service

    I think it really boils down to where you live. Around me I have two dealerships, within 30 miles. I have gone to both for warranty, amd recall work. Averages about one week to get in. The NAV issue is most likely your radios software. My radio wasnt over the air updating, and they had to...

    Oily residue

    If its a 4WD, you might check and see if the CV boots on the front wheels are not compromised?

    My new RAM

    A perfect 10??

    Nope, there's just no way I can. And they charged me $155 for the labor on the filters too.

    Key FOB - Proximity?

    The touch and go feature is definitely an option. And I have found my FCA fobs seems to like to be kinda close to work everytime.

    A perfect 10??

    Well I took my 2022 2500 into the dealer for some work today. My wife talked me into letting the dealer do some of the things I always used to do for maintenance basics. Anyway the dealership always sends me an email after a visit, asking for me to fill out the future FCA survey with all 10s...

    Help! Can’t decide how to upgrade

    The diesel option is another $10k. My first thought after reading your thread, I think the gasser would be better option. I have always done the 3.73 gears as well.

    Engine hours/oil change interval

    I change mine at least once a year. I too, dont drive mine much, as it it used mainly for towing my RV, not daily driver. I pay no attention to the hours logged.

    Which mud flaps

    I have always installed mud flaps on my trucks when new. Usually went with the mopar ones as they are form fitting and thru online places are reasonable.

    Intermittent antifreeze smell

    I had some warranty work done three years ago to replace the water pump in the CTD on one of my trucks. And I still smell coolant when warm. I think that OAT coolant type smells and lingers more than the older stuff did? I have several FCA vehicles, the only vehicle I own that doesnt smell...

    Looks like I'm never buying RAM again...

    Have you seen the majority of the GM trucks, both large and small.... is now a turbo 4 cylinder. Like others here have already said, times are a changing, and I doubt it its going stop. Honestly for a 1500 series truck, which I would use like a car anyway, it wouldnt matter what engine it had...

    Terrible towing with factory air suspension

    I would agree with what you are experiencing to a point. I tow a fifth wheel with my 22, with factory air suspension. I do notice it does seems to have some lateral swaying under load and towing... as compared to my previous gen4 truck w/o the air suspension. I think the factory air...

    2022 Big Horn rear end troubles

    The diffs in the trucks are from american axle in the RAMs. I almost sure GM buys them as well? Its been a few since my wife worked for AAM, but both GM, and stalantis bought differentials from them at one time not that long ago.

    Driving habits reported to your insurance company?

    I know back in my days of corvettes, and camaros. There was a lot of threads on how guys went to lengths to remove the onstar modules. Since I have a 2500 truck, I drive it like a 60 plus year old man would. Shouldnt be much to report there. But if anyone at FCA, or stalantis wants to know...

    12" U Connect Radio Shut Down

    I know a couple of times my radio, stayed on too. In the end mine was doing some over the air updates, and it was downloading these on its own. Did it ask you about an update ever?

    5th Wheel Towing 2018 Ram 2500 Diesel

    We had a 42 foot luxury fifth wheel for sale for a long time. It weighed 14,500 lbs, with a GVRW of 16k. Anyway the folks that bought it were from florida, and they drove all the way up here with a Gen4 2500 diesel. I told him that I dont think you have enough truck, but he didnt want to hear...

    5th wheel camera hookup

    It was an option (towing technology group), so if your window sticker says you have it maybe? Plus it would have a round connector on the rear bumper area for the camera to hook to. Camera NOT included.

    120VAC plug in pick up bed

    First off did it have that option? It is an option and didnt come with all the HDs. If not , the 120v inverter might be there to connect to.

    2021 6.4 sells like coolant ZERO leaks !

    Welcome to the club. My 2021 pacifica also smells of coolant with only 20k miles. So did my 2014 RAM 3500 diesel truck. Wasnt loosing coolant from the over flow tank either from the look of it. But trust me there is a small leak somewhere. I think the OAT coolant they are using these days...

    Is it legal?

    So I am not going to delete my diesel, but I know some guys that have done it, not real recently though. But would a dealer legally take a deleted truck in on trade? Can they re-sale it without the smog equipment on it?

    2022 Cummins U059F Code

    I have had a 2014, 2018, and now a 2022 Ram with the cummins. I will admit I really dont drive mine all that much, as they are mainly used for hauling my fifth wheel RV. But the fact I push them hard when in use, towing something heavy, so far seems to agree with them. No CELs ever so far...

    What grease/lube for power running boards?

    I know there is a dry spray on type graphite lube we used to use on our snowmobile clutches. Comet clutches? That dries and wouldn't attract dirt.

    Adding trailer brakes

    With the optional wiring harness the tekonsha unit, worked proportionally with the trucks brakes just fine. I resorted to this system, due to the OE brake controller in the dash not working with the trailers barkes worth a crap. The only thing I saw was there wasnt a graphic in the trucks EVIC...
