    EGR service

    So, I just replaced the CCV filter and Perform Service won't stay off with reset. Dealership walked over, lifted hood and told me I needed a $650 EGR cleaning without any other diagnostics at all. I've had a bunch of these cummins with our company with well into the hundreds of thousands of...

    Cylinder slap on cold/cooled startups

    Back after a long absence. :) So, we have about 32 trucks in the fleet now, all but 2 are owner operator- all are RAM! One of the two is giving me headaches. My personal '17 2500 just replaced the NOX sensor. Expensive fix. Replaced the front injector pump at 12,000 and again at 26,000...

    Looking for HD towing mirrors

    For 2016 ram 2500 laramie. Would like them chrome, not a deal breaker. Have the power non-tow now, chrome and in like new condition. Would like to see if you have any and if they are retro'd to have a power fold motor so that truck doesn't throw a constant code. Thanks, hounddog

    Looking for HD towing mirrors

    Anyone have, or know someone selling 4th Gen towing mirrors? Prefer chrome, but thats not a deal breaker, has to be the heated kind or it'll throw a code all the time. Just picked up a 2500 and it has standard mirrors. Thanks

    Help!

    So, my '14 Ram dually 4x4 Today when I started it up in 7 degrees, after it got warm it indicated "Perform Service" but otherwise acted normal, 4x4 worked fine to pull me down the snowy roads, and drove it about 25 miles. Zero performance issues, and I felt the truck was telling me to do basic...

    6.7 injector pump warranty question

    So, I can't get a straight answer from Chrysler. Is the CP3 front injector pump covered under the 5/100,000 powertrain warranty or is it not? My '14 injector has started knocking and I'd like to replace it before it goes super-nova and I have to rebuild the engine. Chrysler will not...

    Why I buy Rams for commericial

    Rams have the most expensive engine/transmission combo in the Cummins/Aisin. They have the most expensive cab options in premium trim, but have much more "standard" options in the available Big Horn trim package options. Heated seats/steering wheel, the big screenS, etc. are only available in...

    3500 Rear pumpkin cover leaking

    Anyone with the Aisin with the rear aluminum heat sink cover having it, or had it leak? My personal '14 has less then 40k on it and it's already developed a leak. None of my '15 and `16 are doing it. It started right after a long trip with a 13k lbs 5th wheel to Colorado, but not through...

    Need thoughts on switching trucks.

    So, long story short my 14 2500 Crew Cab 4x4 short bed 6.7l ctd is shredding injector fuel pumps.(that's the one on the front of the engine that feeds the common rail) and 3 different dealers, the dodge "help" line and Cummins themselves won't help me. Each pump is 1,000 buck and most of...

    6.7l help needed

    So, my '14 2500 6.7l with only 3800 miles is making a noise that has been described by others as "eggs frying" when it is idling. The noise is a popping and snapping sound. It's over the regular engine noise. When it has been driving or gets warmed up it gets worse, not super bad but inside...

    Does anyone know when they switched?

    So, my dealer is willing to give me almost four grand more on mine as a trade effectively making it nearly retail price if we pick up an existing truck since it is Ram month instead of ordering. Since this setup is quite new the reality of lot-rot is likely to just not exist. What I am having...
