    Cam Failure Poll

    Dam, that is nasty. Sounds awesome.

    Cam Failure Poll

    Definitely worth considering buying a brand new 1500 but I'm picky. I wouldn't settle for any less than the same features I have now and look for a Night Edition, Laramie Sport or Big Horn Sport. As of now, still looking at fixing it.

    Cam Failure Poll

    Hopefully, I can save a few bucks without needing a cam. I guess the next trip will be to the local shop. HEMI :biggun:

    Cam Failure Poll

    Really? It wouldn't show on Blackstone? That gave me a false sense of security! I guess the damage was already done when I bought the truck, 6000 miles ago. :banghead:

    Cam Failure Poll

    Yeah, it is what it is. I guess it would be better to just get it fixed before it gets worst. Then decide to keep or not. Sending an oil sample to Blackstone. Previous sample looked great. They said lower wear than most Hemi's. Anyone please advise on what lifters and/or cam to get?

    Cam Failure Poll

    I just voted yes for my 2015 CC Sport. 52,000+ miles on it. Not a daily driver. Last 2 oil changes, I used Redline 5w30 which did help quiet and smooth out the engine and no tick at that time. I now noticed a constant tick on the driver side from start up, even after 30 minutes of drivings...

    Cold start weak battery sound

    My 2015 does this too. First noticed this, maybe 2 months ago. Thought it might be a weak battery since the truck only gets driven on the weekends. Wasn't too concerned about it, as it always started. However, if there is a solution, I would like to get this resolved. Will be following this...

    Component speaker transition

    I just installed the Kicker Key 500.1 sub amp. I have the Alpine system. I cut off the wires going to the sub right under the factory box and ran straight to the 500.1 as high level input. Set DC offset to On and tune as per instructions. Right now, I have it wired back to the factory Alpine...

    Kicker shallow mount 8" sub in factory box

    I'm looking to use the same subwoofer but with the Kicker Key500.1 amp. I'm with you, I want to keep my fold flat floors but can't find any sub box that will accommodate this so I guess try something similar with the poly fill and dynamat. Or if I'm adventurous to try and build one out of...

    exhaust bolts or lifters

    They should cover it. I bought my 2015 Sport this month last year. Had the exhaust tick on start up on one side. Dealer covered it. Then around November last year, the other side started to tick. Got that covered too. Also consider using Redline 5w-30 oil for extra moly our Hemi needs.

    Antenna Move?

    Yup, good reception but like others said, depends on your location. I don't remove for car washes.

    Antenna Move?

    Stubby antennas that are around 3" didn't work well for me. Lost a lot of reception. Go with one that is around 7". This is the one I use. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MM52189/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    4th gen ram hemi avoid?

    I still own an 03 QC Hemi Sport. I bought it brand new. Never had any major engine problems but I only have 54k miles on it. I was getting only 11 mpg and lack luster performance considering its a V8. As you know, it has a 5 speed trans. Wanted to buy a new truck but dam they are so...

    2017 Ram Hemi sounds like a clattering heap

    My 2015 had the tick yesterday when I moved it back after washing my truck. Heard it for 3 seconds then went away. Using redline 5w30 and smaller RP filter for about 2500 miles now. Dealer already fixed broken exhaust bolts and has been quite till yesterday. Guess I’ll try the SRT filter...

    exhaust manifold leak vs. hemi tick

    Bought my 2015 with 46k miles in June 2019 from a local dealer. It had the tick, only on start up on the passenger side and sounded more like Tap Tap Tap. Dealer repaired 3 broken exhaust bolts in August 2019. Not ticking anymore but the Hemi engine is a noisy engine for sure. So I dumped...

    Cam and Lifter failure

    Could MDS reaction be an indication of cam/lifter condition? Bought a used 2015 Sport from a dealer 6 months ago. When I test drove it, it goes into MDS smooth but kicks out kinda hard. At first, I thought the transmission was upshifting to the next gear. MDS is new to me. Fast forward to...

    Question about Vararam intake breather

    I'm going to redo it this weekend. For some reason, the hose clamps I got are way too big, like 6 inch plus. Going to change it out to proper sized ones and try putting the intake tube on the vararam first, then bolting the vararam with the intake tube attached, to the throttle body.

    Question about Vararam intake breather

    I have a question to add. Does everyone's hood hard to close after the install? I'm not one to slam hoods. I lay it down first, then push down with both hands. I have to push down hard several time to get it to catch. Tried adjusting the height of the vararam as low as possible, doesn't...

    Question about Vararam intake breather

    I just installed my Vararam this past weekend. Got it from Moe's and followed his youtube video. The breather is installed on the other side of the engine close to the oil fill cap. Didn't notice any clicking or ticking.

    Weather tech floor mats

    If you like Weather Techs, consider Rough Country floor mats. They feel stiff like Weather Techs but are quite a bit cheaper. Just got a set for my 2015 CC Sport. Fits great. dodge-floor-mat-set-m-311c.html

    Hemi makes tapping noise at op temp & manifolds just done. vid inc to hear audio

    I recently purchased a used 2015 CC Sport. Not sure what the normal range should be but the lowest I noticed was 38 psi with whatever oil the truck came with at the time of purchase. The oil was still clean but I changed it to Redline 5w-30 and RP 10-48 filter. Now the lowest is 48 psi at...
