    Humming noise

    Not the ANC or MDS. Been down that road and took 24K and about 4-5 trips to two different dealers to solve. Bypass ANC, Re-Flash ANC, turn off MDS, etc. still droned when it wanted to. Got the usual can not duplicate answer. Not a good answer for 50K. Ask them to do ANC re-flash 08-056-19...

    Vibration in 4wd

    You should try 4wheel auto in the rain if you want. Regular 4wd not for rain and not super high speed, not enough slip.

    DRONE SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE

    Been dealing with the drone/growling noise since new. I have been a mechanic most of my life and thought from day one it is the trans or transfer case. Intermittent so hard to pinpoint. Shut truck off and it goes away until it does it again. Might be a couple days or a couple months in...

    Tow mirrors should be outlawed 2019 bighorn

    I know what you are saying about the fixed stock spot mirrors. You cannot see anything in them as they should be adjustable. Adjust them to be useful and the main mirror becomes useless. I solved that by getting adjustable 3" spot mirrors from napa and installing them right over the factory...

    What is TSB 08-056-19?

    Went in for TSB 08-033-19 for the growling and droning. They said it was updated to #08-056-19. Had that done and was good for 100 miles than starting doing it again. May do it 3 times in a week or not at all for a month. I know how to de-pin but will make them fix it instead. Anyone have...

    When Starting Intermitting noise ,

    I get a bang also on start sometimes. Never know when it will do it but sounds like a bad starter or the exhaust banging. Have not looked into it yet and no sense mentioning to dealer as all they ever say is we could not duplicate. (like the growling/droning from the ANC). I guess we only see...

    Just got in an accident

    Glad your OK. Truck can be repaired or replaced but we cannot. 38 years in the delivery business have seen a lot. I never swerve if possible. Don't want to hurt any body or thing but bad things happen when you swerve as they walk off laughing as you go in the woods. Deer are out of control...

    2019 Windshield

    No, but if I were you I would insist on OEM glass only. I had a side window break and Safe-lite wanted to put a Chinese window in and I refused. OEM glass was only $135.00.

    Body Ground Cable Fastener Recall - came today

    Got mine today also. Will let them check ground. Clean all yours grounds every couple years even if they look good and eliminate a lot of problems. Learned that with my 05 Hemi when you could not turn off lights.

    First Oil Change

    13mm wrench and small oil filter wrench. Order 5w20 PUP (Pennzoil Ultra Premium) from Walmart delivered for about $24.97 per 5qt jug. 7 quarts needed and get Wix premium filters from Rockauto #57060XP for $6.62 each. Can't do much better than that. Also heard factory fill is semi-synthetic...

    Tradesman, basic yet good platform to build upon ?

    Nothing wrong at all with Tradesman level. That's what I wanted but the rebates are weak for them and a Big Horn may cost the same or less in the end. Less to go wrong with the Tradesman also. Best thing about my Big Horn is the Level 2 dash, power remote mirrors and heated seats. All things...

    2019 Block heater issue, really??

    Had engine block heaters in most of my trucks in my snowplowing days. Not sure about the 2019 but most cords plug into the heater element. If it is removeable get a cord for a Diesel that is longer and route to the front.

    Wind noise.

    Same wind noise hear from back doors. Looks like the alignment is not right on most Rams you look at. Look at any new Ram and the top of rear door is in too much and bottom too far out. Weather-strip not the problem and you keep trying to close the rear window which is already closed. It is...

    A Poll for all new 2019 RAM owners

    Dealer stock since uncertain about rebates for time of delivery. 7800 miles and no real problems. Intermittent droning or growling noise not related to radio, moving, brakes, etc. Pretty sure the active noise thing causing the sound. Waiting for it to happen again and catch on video. Not...

    Loose oil filter

    When I did my first change the filter and plug were only finger tight but not leaking. Strange since the factory usually over tightens them.

    37's Not Balancing

    Get rid of the Coopers and the vibration will go with it. Spent 38 years in the delivery business and we went through 100's,maybe 1000's of Coopers over the years. They were great tires for a long time. The last 5-10 years are hit or miss. My buddy's repair shop got to the point where they...

    I have the 26 gal tank and my DTE shows anywhere from 450-530 when I fill up. Same range as my 05 Hemi with the 34 gal tank.

    Does it bother you when people call your RAM a Dodge?

    Ram name is dumb. What do we have? a Ram Ram. Will always be a Dodge to me with Ram being the model. Even my 2005 Hemi Ram said Dodge nowhere on it.
