    Lifters, extended idle times, oil

    I have a 2016 Ram 2500 with the 6.4 Hemi. I have almost 60k on the truck now. Been through two sets of lifters (on my third set now). Used only 0w40 Pennzoil ultra Platinum since the beginning. Since I’ve gotten the third set installed, by the dealer a few months ago, I have made sure I...

    On my 3rd set of lifters with 6.4

    Has anyone used an oil additive on their 6.4 Hemi to try to reduce the problems with obsessively worn out lifters? I took my truck to the dealer because of lifter noise (engine warm or cold). They replaced all 16 lifters at just 46,000 miles. Just 10,000 miles later at 56,000, same noise...

    Lifter Replacement.

    I have a 2016 6.4 2500 with 46,000 miles. I’ve always heard a ticking sound for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on a cold start and then it goes away. (Bought the truck new). Decided to take it to the dealer yesterday, in Michigan, to get it checked. Dealer says they are going to replace all 16...

    Humming noise at low speed

    I just noticed A humming noise at very low speeds until I speed up or hit the breaks. (Like 5-10mph) it’s coming from the front end. Could it be a wheel bearing? I have 43,000 miles on my 2016 2500 Hemi 4x4 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2016 2500 6.4 Stalling on Start

    Twice this month (July) my truck stalled after startup. Both times was in the morning. Temperature outside was around 70 degrees. Started the truck, runs for about 5 seconds and then stalls. I have to turn the truck completely off for about 5 seconds to get it to start again (It refuses to...

    Interior Rattle & 3/36,000 warranty

    My first rattle showed up deep in the dash on a road trip. It is incredibly annoying. I’m still under my 3 year / 36,000 bumper to bumper warranty for my 2016 2500. Anyone know if that will be covered or will it be a battle? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    18.5 mpg on 6.4l

    My engine is getting more efficient as the miles add up. This was a 4 hour trip from Gatlinburg to Cincinnati up 75 and through the mountains. My truck has about 14,000 miles on it now. It is a 2016 2500 Long Bed Crew 4x4 w/ 3.73 and the 6.4l. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    High 8s - low 9s MPG 6.4

    Since winter came, my 2016 2500 4x4 Crew Long bed 6.4 is barely getting over 9mpg city. In the winter, I drive much less on the freeway. My work is around 9 miles one way. Typical speed is around 40-50 mph. I've been resetting the computer each time to see if the next full tank improves. Is...

    Towing MPG 6.4 Trip to Florida

    Went on a trip to Florida from Michigan towing 7-8k gooseneck. Travelled down 75 primarily going through mountains in Kentucky and Tennessee. The 6.4 w/ 3.73 was strong but mileage wasn't so great. The gauge showed 6.5-7.5 and my average at the end of the round trip was about 7.2. Normal...

    Trans slipping

    I have a 2016 2500 4x4 Crew 3.73 with the 6.4 Hemi. I've owned many Rams over the years (mostly Diesels). I have just over 2000 miles on it. This truck has been great but I seem to have to wait like 30 seconds to a minute after starting to drive. If I don't, the truck barely moves. If I...

    Crew Cab with long bed or short?

    Been driving 2500 pickups for 22 years and have always liked the functionality and look of a full 8' bed. I've driven them for so long as a daily driver and work truck that I'm so used to it. Anyone else prefer 8' crew cabs over 6.5' beds? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
