I have 45K on the studs now. The manifolds rarely warp to the point they won't seal. Simple way to remove the broken studs is to weld a nut on the broken stud and turn it out. The head is aluminum so the chances of building enough heat to mess it up before getting the nut attached are minimal (I...
Just FYI, the parking brake circuit is a simple off/on switch to ground...a toggle switch that can open the circuit (parking brake engaged) would keep autopark from functioning.
The vapor canister is on the side of the fuel tank on these trucks. You may want to take a look at the ESIM switch on a scanner to see if it is switching from open to closed as vacuum builds in the tank. The switch in the ESIM is know to get stuck.
Try to have someone else actuate the key while you listen under the hood. The electronic throttle body does a self cleaning actuation and test at key on that will produce an audible thunk that gets louder the more dirty the throttle body gets. Just a thought.
Since this was launched as a recall I do not believe it is voluntary. This feature doesn't bother me, but if it did I would just plug a dummy buckle into the seat belt receiver. The auto park feature needs to see the door open, brake not applied, and seat belt unbuckled.
Recall U05 will update the software in the PCM, TCM, RFH, and IPC to add this feature. If you have the last 8 digits of your VIN I can check to see if your truck is part of the recall.
Drop the pan, put an OEM solenoid pack on, and recheck your filters. The converter filter has plastic threads and can easily be messed up. The sump filter seal must be replaced and installed properly or the pump will suck air. hope this helps.
The 5.9 would be my first choice. With that said, the 2014 and up is much better about ball joints than previous models. If I was looking to buy/build a truck for your purposes any late model 6.7 with an AS69RC would work...right after I deleted the after treatment system. The 68RFE can be made...
I find that the EGR cooler being plugged is usually the problem, however, any plugged portion of the EGR system, or a leak in the CAC will cause this code. Make sure that when your dealer is doing the EGR system clean that they are doing the WHOLE job including the bypass valve and the intake...
The 66RFE is used behind the Hemi and is a robust transmission. Once again, if you want to put a bunch of HP through some upgrades are needed. I do not see a lot of failures with these units except for the OD clutch issues when hauling heavy loads and not using tow haul. Please keep in mind...
Definitely not normal. However, I need a little more info. Was the truck warm? Did it move at all? Was tow/haul on?
Keep in mind that the LR clutch is only applied until 150 RPM tailshaft speed (approx. 8 MPH) and then the sprag clutch takes over. The sprag is weak and has a plastic cage...
Unless you are familiar with using pinion depth tools do not attempt this on your own. The overall job isn't overly difficult but pretty technical. I would try to find a pro that is willing to let you watch and ask questions for your virgin differential gear swap.
The severe angle of the push rods is part of the issue as they are almost horizontal. This is the same reason the Hemi doesn't like prolonged idling. I have replaced many cams for lobe wear on police vehicles with high idle time. There have been several good suggestions as far as oil goes, and...
