    Three problems, 02 Ram 1500, 5.9L or in American numbers 360 V8

    Problem 3 sounds like your condenser fan is out. The fan on my old 2004 was relatively easy to replace myself. Unfortunately, I dont have any ideas about the other problems.

    How to read check engine codes

    Check engine light came on, but no messages. How do I check the codes without a reader? All the searches I did said turn the key on and off 3 times without starting. I have the keyless start. Anyone know how to get them with keyless start and without a reader? Thanks.

    295/70/18 and MPG

    Put ridge grappler 295/60/R20's on mine. Lost about .5 - 1 mpg ish. The stock Ram wheel won't take much more width. I wanted 305's or 315's. 2017 w/ 6 speed transmission though.

    DragLink Recall-File a complaint with NHTSA

    Same thing happened to me. I took it back and told them they didn't fix it right, and they redid it without fuss. In fact, they service manager simply told me, "the technician obviously didn't do his job correctly and the'ld fix it right this time." Not happy about the weld on my truck, but...

    Anyone else disappointed with Nitto Ridge Grapplers?

    I love my Ridge Grapplers, but I'm concerned with how long they will last. It is an awesome looking tire, good traction, relatively quiet (can't hear them over my radio), etc. I did hit a spot the other day in the rain that was slick at a stop light, but generally traction for me is good. My...

    Why are you guys still buying Ram "Classics"???

    I've been driving Rams since '96, so I am definitely an enthusiast. The look of the new Ram is just a little to refined for me. I look at it and get the feeling of family car or station wagon with a truck bed on it. The grill being "wrapped" around the lights dont excite me either. There's...

    @RamCares this is not right and needs to be fixed

    Guess what I got in the mail yesterday from uconnect. Yep, I'll be updating my uconnect tomorrow. It doesn't look like a traditional USB or thumb drive.

    @RamCares this is not right and needs to be fixed

    Came with NAV from factory, so I'm guessing RA4.

    @RamCares this is not right and needs to be fixed

    I really don't want to, but I'm starting to get issues that bug me. Radio shuts off immediately after engine shutoff (regardless of settings) and clock was messed up for a while. I'm on a 16.X.X software version and I've heard of issues going from 16 to 18. Really, I just want my radio to...

    @RamCares this is not right and needs to be fixed

    Is there a way to initiate an ota update? Mine has never updated nor have I received any notifications that it needed to be (other than some of the problems others have discussed in this thread). Thx.

    Radio stays on after car is turned off and driver door is opened

    8.4 UCONNECT - 2017 I've not done any updates, and my radio started shutting off as soon as I turned off the engine. It bugs me to death. I did a soft reboot, then the time would not update from the gps. I verified gps was getting the location of the truck, then set time manually. After...

    I'm amazed it was still in the road and the cab did not crush.

    Fueling with RV

    Going down interstates, I really didn't worry about finding a gas station that could get my 6.4 w/ TT in tow. Rural Texas roads was another issue though. We'd look up gas stations on Google Maps, then switch over to Streetview to see what the gas station looked like. Streetview was pretty...

    A/c blows cold when running, hot when idle

    Condenser fan. The refrigerant requires constant airflow to cool. If your condenser fan is not working, air does not move through the condenser radiator when you stop. Quick check is to run your truck without the ac on then turn ac on. If condenser fan is working, you will hear it turn on...

    For those with 32 gallon tanks

    My previous ram (2004 1500) had a 26 gallon tank and, when EVIC said there were only a couple miles left in tank (single digits), I put 26 gallons in it. My current (2017 2500) with 32 gallon tank takes only 27 gallons when EVIC says empty. It also says I have a range of 450 miles when I fill...

    Help - Stolen Power Wagon

    I'm glad they recovered the truck, and I hope they didn't trash it.

    7 weeks and 2500 miles 6.4 fuel economy

    I typically get 11.8 to 12.6ish mpg (hand calculated), while EVIC normally reads 13.8 to 14.3. Funny thing is the EVIC predicts a range of 450 miles while in reality, I typically get around 320 miles before EVIC says I'm empty. There's a huge difference between 450 and 320.

    My 2018 2500 6.4L

    That looks really good. Now rotate your mirrors out and complete the big truck look. Your truck looks great.

    And you think RAM's oil filter is a pain...

    That's crazy. I smell some after market stuff to add a drain line and move the filter mount.
