    How long does a 3.6 exhast usually last?

    crap. Bad rocker arm and lifter. Needs a new engine really when you factor in the cost of fixing everything. Any additives I can add to quiet it down so I can trade it?

    How long does a 3.6 exhast usually last?

    The oil cooler was fine, so I dropped it off at my mechaninc. The weird clacking noise doesnt happen until the truck is warmend up. Under the hood, it sounds like its coming from the lower front of the engin, and under the truck, it sounds like the exhaust, so i'm stumped. Not throwing any...

    How long does a 3.6 exhast usually last?

    I have a 2016 with the 3.6 V6 with 134K and the exhaust smells terrible suddenly, and is louder, like an exhaust leak somewhere. Sounds like a tick under the truck. The whole garage smells like burning oil a little bit, but not too bad. I had the oil filter housing replaced last year. Imma...

    I found my window sticker

    This truck was decently equipped for a lower model. It was like $9K total off back then so I got it for about $22K. I was living in Phoenix at the time, so a 2WD was fine, and wasn't making much money back then anyway, so my options were limited. The upgraded door panels with aluminum trim re...

    3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Lawsuit

    Is there a link to a story about it or anything? My truck has that engine and its doing just fine at 130K. I had one problem with the oil filter housing having to be replaced at 100K, but that was expected.

    I need to get my transmission fluid changed, so it can start slipping...

    According to the manual, 120K is the interval to change the fluid, but I've been putting it off becasue I'm neurotic about tranny fluid change causing it to slip. I have 130K on the clock now. Pentastar V6 with the 8 speed that shifts smooth as silk. Supposedly, the debris in there keeps an...

    Can anyone get Mopar.com to work?

    https://www.mopar.com/en-us.html I cant get it to work right. I try to register, and the fields you put in your info are all garbled being overwritten, then it doesnt do anything. I tried Chrome and Edge. i want to download my owners manual to look at the service intervals.

    My 6 year Interstate battery went dead after 2 years

    I had to call AAA to have them install a replacement at work. The old Interstate battery was completely dead. I have sworn by Interstate since the 80's and am wondering if they have cheapened their product to cut costs? maybe I just got a dud. I dont plan on keeping the AAA battery very...

    120K maintenance

    I'm at 122K now on my 3.6 and it looks like I need to change the auto transmision fluid and differential along with an oil change and air filter. I got the spark plugs changed at 100K, so that is done. The manual says to also inspect some of the front suspension and brakes. I got my brakes...

    What does Traction Control actually do?

    What does it actually do, especially on a RWD vehicle that already is limited slip? And why would you ever want to turn it off then? I've had my truck 6 years and never really bothered with it.

    Slight knocking sound on cold startup

    I have a 2016 Ram with the 3.6 with 120K. Recently, there is a slight flapping or light knocking sound coming from under the hood on cold startup. It only lasts about two seconds, then is gone. It runs and drive like it was new, so I'm wondering if it's an exhaust issue, since that all...

    Burning oil smell, no leaks though

    I got my plugs done there at 100K. The truck is good to go now so I don't have to worry about it for now.

    Burning oil smell, no leaks though

    Yeah, iunno if I will go there again. The truck is paid for, so I had plenty of money to pay for it all, but it did seem steep.
