    8Hp70 transmission additive

    @Jdoc I've also used Seafoam on several vehicles with good result. I only drove around 100 miles with it and definitely made the transmission shift better. BTW, hat's an impressive amount of mileage on your 2014! The Redline ATF obviously worked well for you., but was there a reason you...

    Do you guys think all Gen 3 5.7L Hemi engines are doomed for lifter/cam failure?

    The 5.7 Hemi in the 4th Gen Ram 1500 is the Eagle Gen3 5.7 Hemi engine. I guess, I could have worded my title better.

    Do you guys think all Gen 3 5.7L Hemi engines are doomed for lifter/cam failure?

    Thanks everyone for the replies! In regards to switch to Redline 5w30, I assume if I do this I will no longer need to use Lubegard, is that correct? Has anyone who switched to Redline 5w30 had any issues during the really cold winters? On the tuner, what idle RPM would you guys recommend to...

    Any concerns about running Redline 5w30 in the winter time?

    Any concerns about running Redline 5w30 in the winter time?

    I have been running PUP 5w20 on my 2014 Longhorn since I got used in 2016 with about 26k miles and it has 58k miles now. It has the 5.7 Hemi and after reading about lifter/cam issues I want to ensure long engine life since I plan to keep it for as long as possible. At this time I have no...

    I did the update over the weekend and also experienced the washed out back up camera screen on my 14 Longhorn. Thanks to this thread I was able to fix it by doing the factory reset. It's all good now!
