    Quieting Hemi Tick

    So... The truck is ready for pickup, the 'tick' is fixed. Exhaust manifold, bolts and gasket were replaced. Under warranty, zero charge. The seat... a new seat back and hinge assembly were ordered, they'll give me a call when they are in. At least something is being done! Also, under...

    GOOD!! That's why I'm REALLY glad I'm not doing it... and also not paying a red friggin' cent to have it done!

    Quieting Hemi Tick

    Yes... exactly. I'll be quick here. The compared my truck to another 2016 w/only 33K on it and whadya know, it does the same thing!! Hmm... maybe that one's bad too??? DUH! I can get in a friends 2015 Tradesman with almost 90K on it and his drivers seat is rock solid. They have the tech...

    Quieting Hemi Tick

    The tick... is the exhaust manifold bolts (as expected). They're being replaced along with the gasket (hopefully). The seat, a whole nother story... I won't get into here, as it's not the appropriate thread for it. Perhaps I'll post somewhere else. Sorry for my rant above. It's just annoying...

    Quieting Hemi Tick

    Truck is in at the dealer now... haven't heard anything yet. Also having them investigate why my drivers seat 'shifts/pivots' fwd and bckwrd when I accelerate and brake. Moves (best guess) about 3/4"... easily. I'm told that "these 8-way power seats sometimes have some play in them, as opposed...

    Will do for sure, and thank you for the clarification.

    Quieting Hemi Tick

    Good suggestion... I guess I forgot the DT warranty was longer than the standard. I will double-check. Thank you!! EDIT: Doing a quick search, I found this: The 2016 Ram 1500 is backed with a five-year/100,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty on the EcoDiesel and five- year/60,000-mile on...

    Quieting Hemi Tick

    So... getting thru all these posts on the 'Hemi tick' here, I'm trying to sort things out to see if the recommendations apply to my issue. I have a 2016 BH 5.7, that has a 'tick' on startup... which lasts from 30-45 seconds, before going away. Is this how everyone's "tick" starts?!? I use...

    Good 'ol wind noise - windshield and doors

    I think I got it... finally. So, while I was out at lunch last Friday... I inspected the rubber seal piece that runs along the outer window track, near the drivers mirror. I was able to 'push' it in towards the front of the truck about 1/4" along the full length (7-8"). How it got loose... who...

    Good 'ol wind noise - windshield and doors

    Good thought... I can apply some now for the ride home, just need to remember I can't roll the window down then!

    Good 'ol wind noise - windshield and doors

    Thanks for the replies, but to be clear (or clearer)... this is exactly what my issue is: https://www.torquenews.com/3768/3-ways-quiet-wind-noise-2016-ram-1500 It's the paragraph titled 'Replace the Window Seals'... I'll be taking a look at it tonight. I think I can find a home-fix for it...

    Good 'ol wind noise - windshield and doors

    Thanks... but that isn't where my noise is coming from. It's from the outer seal that runs along the outside of the window... and specifically, the 7-8" (vertically) right next to the driver's mirror. I plan to try to remove that piece and put some sort of 'shimming' rubber weatherstrip in...

    Good 'ol wind noise - windshield and doors

    I'm STILL getting wind noise in the cabin of my 2016 1500 BH Crew... and finally found out where it's coming from. It's the Window-Glass Seal Run, part number 55112367AF according to Mopar diagrams. Has anyone replaced this part for wind noise?? I see Mopar has replaced the AF P/N with an AI or...

    Interior Mods, Post em up!

    Very cool. Were they from a wrecked vehicle? Guessing they'd be more if bought new... anyways, congrats. Looks professional.

    Vent Caps on Projector Headlights

    Thanks. I would "think" it would happen on both sides though... I don't get the commonality with mostly being the driver's side. At least from what's reported. I might put my old bulbs back in (don't want to though), and get the moisture out... and see if it comes back with those in there.

    Vent Caps on Projector Headlights

    What about for non-projector types? I'm only getting this on the drivers side...

    Interior Mods, Post em up!

    Damn... that looks nice. Would love to do the same, but wondering what the cost was/is to do so??? Imagine not cheap. Also, how do you get the ventilation to work? SW/FW update for that? My 16' has heated cloth, but obviously not ventilated (since they're cloth). Well done!

    Wind noise

    Yes, please update with whatever findings they report. The only other thing I can think of... is that my drivers door sits a tad 'low' when viewed from the outside, looking at the upper right corner of the door. Perhaps it's dropped a bit from daily use (opening/closing, etc)... and that's...

    Headlight condensation

    I just found this thread... and I'm hoping it helps my condensation (drivers side only). Seems like this started not long after I replaced my bulbs with LEDs, and couldn't get the caps back on... until I duct taped them! LOL!!

    Wind noise

    So how is it fixed? New inner window track seal???

    Wind noise

    I too, am having a VERY annoying wind noise coming from my 2016 Big Horn drivers side window... somewhere, hard to tell where exactly. I've replace the inner seal already, as mine seemed pretty 'crushed' from a lot of door use. The door was very hard to close after replacement (like slamming it...

    Headlights blinking

    So... question here. Despite adding a 3rd party (i.e. non-OEM) replacement LED bulb/light, dealers are willing to flash the vehicle BCM to correct the issue? Do they charge for this? I just installed a set of Nineo H11 LBs, 9005 HBs and fogs... and love them. Would like to keep them, but...

    adding amp to base ra2 head unit 6 speaker system

    Hey Guys. Thinking of installing one of these KTP-445U units in my '16 Big Horn. Would this have any effect on the bass level in the vehicle? Or is it basically a 'boost' for the other speakers (doors and dash), etc.??? Thanks much.
