    Hemi Starter Motor

    So let me ask the question another way. How many of you, with 10 yo or older RAMs with Hemis, have replaced your starter motor?

    Hemi Starter Motor

    I've got a 2014 RAM 1500 Sport with 120,000 miles. I am wondering if I should consider replacing my starter motor before it lets me down in an inconvient place. Would appreciate some information on how long your Hemi Starter Motor lasted before you had to replace it. :( Thanx .... Dan

    Batterys

    I got a similar problem with my 2015 RAM 3500 diesel dually rig. Went to crank it this morning and click click click. Engine won't turn. Everything lights up like there's no problem but I had to jump start it to get it running. Got two batteries. The truck is a little over 4 years old now...

    Did I make the right colour choice?

    It depends on your personality! If you're starving for attention and have a voracious need to be noticed, then red is your color. But if you have high self-esteem and are confident in yourself and don't need the approval of others to validate your life choices, then grey is your color. So...

    2014 Ram 1500 4x4 service

    I bought my 2014 RAM Sport new. The oil has been changed regularly. I swapped out the stock air filter for a K&N as soon as I got it home. But other than that, I haven't performed any major service. I'm more concerned about the mechanical parts that might need servicing. For example, what...

    2014 Ram 1500 4x4 service

    I've got a 2014 RAM 1500 Sport 4x4. Got about 75000 miles on it. My question is, when should I be looking at performing any major service to this truck? What are the critical items I need to be servicing? The truck runs perfectly right now. Just don't want to break down unexpectedly...

    Aftermarket or OEM tpms sensors

    I took my truck to my tire guy and he put a meter on the sensors I bought and they are not the correct unit even though the dealer I bought them from says they are. Their advertisement reads "for a 2015 RAM 3500 Dually" but it's not correct. So, my tire guy is going to order up the correct...

    Aftermarket or OEM tpms sensors

    I've got a 2015 RAM 3500 Dually. My inner left dually when flat. When having it repaired the tech broke my TPMS. I ordered a new one. Didn't install it until I needed new tires. Now it's installed but still, I get NO reading on my TPMS screen. I was told "it would take a day or two to kick...

    What do you like about the dial shifter?

    Absolutely hate it! What were the RAM engineers thinking! I've already lost one freezer in my garage because I stepped out of my truck thinking I was in Park but not really. CRASH! Dial Shifters belong on luxury cars like Mercedes - not trucks. The overwhelming technology in my RAM trucks...

    What did you do to/with your second gen today?

    Since I can't figure out how to post a new topic I'm hoping someone will see this reply. I'm looking for a quality Diesel Fuel Locking Cap or Locking Door for my 2015 RAM 3500 Diesel Dually Crew Cab Long bed. Anybody got a lead on this part. I've looked everywhere and can't find any for...

    Fuel additives and cleaners?

    Opti-Lube and Other Diesel Fuel Additives - questions. Hi Everyone: I know this topic has probably been discussed to death, but honestly, I cannot get a straight definitive answer from anyone, including my service tech. as to 1) why I need to use a diesel fuel additive, 2) how often should I be...

    Additives and Oil.

    This topic about diesel fuel additives is very interesting and at the same time, quite disconcerting. I just bought a 2015 RAM 3500 diesel. I asked the service manager at my dealership if I needed to "add any fuel conditioners or other additives to my tank at each fill up." His answer was a...

    Retractable Mirrors

    Thanx for the suggestion but I'm no electrician so I guess the "final answer" is, there is no switch or setting to auto-retract the mirrors.

    Retractable Mirrors

    I have Retractable Mirrors on my RAM 3500 and was wondering if there's a setting somewhere, that will auto-retract the mirrors upon Ignition Off/Opening Door. Any ideas? Thanx .... d.

    Def

    So here's the question that I'm sure many of you have asked - "how many miles (average) can we get on a full tank of DEF?" I believe the capacity on my RAM 3500 DEF tank is about 3 gallons. (Not sure.) I'm sure over time and distance I'll get a "feel" for how long a full tank of DEF will...

    How to Disable Backup Warning Sensors

    Hi: Been looking for the "switch" that you referenced but could not find one. I've been away for a bit and just getting back to this problem. Any other ideas as to where I would defeat the backup alarm? Thanx .... Dan

    How to Disable Backup Warning Sensors

    Actually, the camper hangs out beyond the bumper about a foot or so but does not cover up the sensors. I was thinking that even though the sensors are not covered up they would still react to the camper body overhang. Maybe, maybe not. I guess I won't know for sure until I load it up for...

    How to Disable Backup Warning Sensors

    Hi: I'm going to be dropping a slide-in truck camper onto the bed of my Longhorn which has backup warning sensors in the rear bumper. I'm concerned that when the camper slides in, and covers up my bumper and therefore the sensors, I'll create a constant warning signal. Is this true or...

    Proper Tire Pressure for 2015 RAM 3500 Dually

    Speaking of "rotating tires" on a dually; I'm wondering how exactly that is done. Do you just swap the two tires - left to right or do you interchange each of the outer and inner tires left to right. And then there's the matter of the valve stems on the tires. What do you do if your outer...

    Proper Tire Pressure for 2015 RAM 3500 Dually

    Yes - deflating the tires will absolutely get you a smoother ride. I would just be careful not to air down too much or you may damage your tires. For me, the ride in my 3500, with no payload is OK - I mean - she rides like a truck, but it's not bone shattering. There is a some "give" in the...

    Proper Tire Pressure for 2015 RAM 3500 Dually

    Hey! Nice to have access to all this great information. I got a 2015 RAM 3500 Longhorn Diesel/Aisin Crew Cab Dually. There always seems to be confusion about how best to inflate your truck tires. So I thought I'd add my 2-cents. The following works for me and I'm posting my scheme...
