    Looking for advice/opinion on buying a truck

    Isn't that supposed to change as you drive & idle more? What did your readout do to cause you not to believe it? I have seen complaints but not sure what the changes were. My reading seem reasonable so far. I only have 46,000 miles on mine

    Max Care quote for my used 2021 Classic Warlock: No?

    The 3.6L V6 is very reliable. The only issue they have is the oil filter assy is plastic & prone to cracking & leaking. Many owners have replaced it with an aluminum version I believe made by Dorman. So my vote is don't waste your money.

    2017 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi died, trouble restarting and wont stay running

    Did the valve fall into the cylinder? You might want to get a inspection scope to see if it damaged the piston.

    2017 Ram 2500 Factory Service Manual

    I had a tech authority manual CD for my 2000 Grand Cherokee, my boss had the written version. I compared them, they were exactly the same except for 1 thing, in the CD version I could blow up each diagram with excellent resolution so I could see detail not available in the printed version.

    Tire PSI on a 1500

    Do the tire chalk test (search that on youtube). I did with my truck & found the rear tires like 36 psi with no load in the bed. The fronts are good @39 since it has the engine weight on them

    Need Help Please!

    My 2017 hemi reads 30 @ idle when at full temp & 50 when above 1000 rpm. When cold it's 50 @ idle. If your engine is quiet, no valve tapping, then I would suspect that the oil pressure sensor is defective.

    TO Sell or Not

    Good idea. Better to stick with what you know and not lose the money you invested in her. I hope you can figure out a way to keep driving it. :cheers:

    Truck stalling while cruising

    The fact that you got a crank position sensor code is the one that catches me, a few misfires won't cause the truck to stall, a CPS will. Start with replacing that.

    AC shuts off when idling in traffic

    You say you got the efan to come on manually, how? When the engine temps start to rise and the AC shuts down, is the efan on? Is it blowing fast enough? The fan is controlled by the PCM. It pulse width modulated. If it's on when the AC stops is it blowing full speed? Check the fans connector...

    Would like to hear from anyone who has tried the XTOOL D8 diagnostic service tool with their 4th gen

    Xtool D7, D8, D9 are all bidirectional. I bought the D7 during black Friday sale. Couldn't resist for 295 bucks. Same as the D8 except D8 is cordless. I checked it out on my Ram. Scared fine & I was able to activate power windows, engine fan, heater blower. I have the capability to turn off...

    Backup camera lines dissapeared.

    Have you tried disconnecting & reconnecting the tailgate connector? That's how it happened on the first place. While it's disconnected check for recessed pins.

    To clean or not clean the oil pan, that is the question

    Tell him to save the aluminum bolt head that he claims fell in the pan for you.

    Help!! No heat on driver side and barley lukewarm on passenger side!!

    If both hoses are hot then it's most likely not the heater core, but one of the other blend doors.

    Sheered off lugs while driving

    Lubed wouldn't stretch a bolt if you're using a torque wrench. That would most likely only be 10 % increase on bolt stress. Now tightening with a 600+ ft lb impact gun is most likely the culprit. And if someone did that they most likely didn't start the lugnut by hand, the put the nut into the...

    Sheered off lugs while driving

    They will stretch if you tighten them enough with an impact gun as we've all seen people do way too often.
