    P0456 typical line wear?

    On my 14 1500 hemi I have P0456 pop up. I installed a new OE gas cap, purge solenoid w/hose and a dorman ESIM leak detection pump. Comes back. Are there typical areas where the evap line rub and leak? I tried to chase down the same code in a wrangler once and there were places that it was...

    Brake fluid leak

    I have a '14 express with 74k. Well taken care of. Today the brakes were acting funny then the low brake fluid light came on. I noticed that fluid was dripping from the driver side A arm area which eventually drained the master. Its not the flex hose, its dry and intact, the leak is inboard of...

    Rustproofing

    My '14 is in good shape for its age but I want to perform some rust preventative work to ensure it lasts much longer. I just recently had the underside NH oil undercoated which I am sure is effective on the places it contacts, but they don't treat body panels. The primary areas I am concerned...

    Gas tank strap recall

    I have a 2014 with only 66k and live in New England. Yesterday going over a speed bump with a full tank the front strap disconnected. Other than some surface rust the strap looks OK but the T pulled out of the frame. I see the recall but haven't found a version for anything post 2012. My vin...

    Seat airbag harnesses?

    I have an issue with airbag lights and pretty sure it is something with the drivers harness. Mopar parts pages don't show a clear diagram for the wiring that goes from the thorax air bag to the floor. Anybody have better details on how to ID this part/harness??

    Any Air Bag system gurus here?

    I tweaked the male pins a few times to ensure interference with the females and still had issues so it must be the crimps. I wonder if I disassemble the connectors and tin the crimp with solder.... Hopefully Chryslers poor connector game is limited to just this junction.......

    Rear seat protector - waterproof pet

    Bringing my own thread back from the dead because it popped up when I searched. Still on the hunt for a fitted seat protector that fits like the one in the pic above (don't want a hammock style). I did pull the trigger on weathertech hoping it fit like the image. But no, it was too narrow...

    Any Air Bag system gurus here?

    A few days ago I drove 1.5 miles to the grocery store and it pinged at least half a dozen times on the way. While at the store I reached under and stuffed the connector in between the lock box I installed and carpet. It has been a few days and has yet to make a peep. So I agree, it has to be in...

    Any Air Bag system gurus here?

    I have a 65k 14 express QC. For a while I have been chasing an intermittent air bag system warning that is often first triggered by a bump in the road/pothole then chiming for so real reason periodically after that. I am not sure exactly where it started however I had to relocate the underseat...

    Service air bag warning repeatedly while driving

    2014 Ram Express. 60k miles. From time to time I get service airbag warnings that constantly appear and chime while driving, then it may just go away for a while. It doesn't seem to be tied to bumps like potholes or anything like that but I seem to remember it starting after I pulled the tilt...

    Debris collection areas

    Where do these trucks collect debris like pine needles and leaves etc.? I'd like to stay on top of cleaning these out to prevent damp rotting material from causing rust.

    Grab Handle Water Leak - 2014 Crew Cab - NO SUNROOF! NO CAB LIGHTS!

    I have a 14 express, no sunroof and no cab lights. Out of the blue I noticed a small wet spot on my pass floor mat. Yesterday driving in the rain I watched water drip out of the upper grab handle bolt hole. I have read something about a Dodge "star case" where they say the factory weld robots...

    Power seat upgrade

    I have a 2014 Express QC. I want to upgrade from the manual adjust seat to a power seat. All I really want is adjustable elevation so my wife can see better over the dash when she takes the wheel. Is the best solution to find a power drivers 40/20/40 seat and swap it in with my seat...

    NH Oil Undercoating

    Just saw this on Motortrend TV and a local shop gave a rough estimate of $250 to do my QC. It seems like it must work, just knowing how clean a leaky car can be underneath. They coat the underside, suspension, get in rockers and frame rails. Anybody ever have it done? My 2014 Ram has 60k...

    Seat foam

    The drivers bottom bolster is collapsed from getting in and out of my truck. Factory foam is over $150, aftermarket is $55. Anybody try the aftermarket foam?

    Rattle noise at the drivers rear of the cab driving me nuts

    Found the problem. It was the freaking weatherstrip around the rear pass door at the top. The straight area in the middle didn't grip the pinchweld like its supposed to for some reason. When it was cold, over bumps it would come up and hit the pinch weld. After all the attempts and multiple...

    Rear seat protector - waterproof pet

    I have a 14 Express Quad with the full rear bench in diesel gray. Recently we picked up a pup, a Lab & we also go to the lake a lot. I don't want wet dog soaking into my upholstery. I'm looking for a rear seat cover that fits our trucks well enough to leave on full time. One that also allows...

    Rattle noise at the drivers rear of the cab driving me nuts

    Its been a while but after multiple attempts to find it I was successful. Believe it or not, it was the weatherstrip running around the rear door. Since the tap sounded like a small plastic hammer tapping on sheetmetal, I never would have thought rubber would do it. But feeling around the...

    Largest tire on stock 2017 4x4

    I put 275/65R20 General Grabbers on mine. Basically 1" taller than the stock size. This size is only available in LT, not P so expect a mileage hit. I'm happy with the look of the truck. No issues rubbing or anything.

    Teach Me "The Art Of The Deal".......

    When I was shopping for my '14, I could not get any dealer (visited 3) to move anywhere on the truck price other than what it came down after my Chrysler affiliate number and the regularly offered incentives. What they really varied on was what I got for my trade. What does you OTD price look...

    Yukon diff gears?

    I've setup Yukon gears in vintage mopars that saw the track. A big plus is that they are very forgiving when it comes to patterning vs. say Richmonds. But if you are paying a shop, just follow his instructions.

    Rear window/third brake light leaking - tried everything.

    I had a leak and when searching lots of people said the satellite radio antenna was the culprit. Run a fillet of silicone around the antenna and see if that works. For my leak though, new foam with a skim of silicone did the trick.

    Rattle noise at the drivers rear of the cab driving me nuts

    Really? One of the main cab mount bolts? Could be, especially if the rubber bushing shrinks in cold temps..... Easy to try out. Come to think of it I completely lost a cab mount bolt on a 2nd gen 2500 back in the day.
