    Heat Soak

    I am having another starter problem with my 2012 RAM 2500. I posted about it a few years ago, took the truck off the road (Not reliable), and recently had the starter replaced a second time since owning the truck (December 2025). When I picked up the truck, it ran fine, and I drove it around...

    Coolant Leak

    Hey, me again. Got a new rack & pinion, so at least that problem was taken care of. But of course, something new has come up, this time being a coolant leak. Not entirely sure where the leak is, as I cannot get a decent viewpoint of anything. Seems as though maybe there’s a clogged line...

    Cylinder 1 misfiring — but only when I drive faster

    The car vibrates a bit more at idle (though maybe that’s just in my head because of anxiety). It also vibrates somewhat more when driving in reverse, but I haven’t driven the car for a long time. The car was sitting idle for about 7 months in around 110 degrees Fahrenheit weather. Acceleration...

    2011 Ram 3500 with Non-MDS 5.7 Hemi constant issues after cam/lifter job

    I'm so tired of this damn engine. I am in this predicament and cannot afford to have the engine replaced nor can I currently afford to replace it myself.

    5.7 Hemi 4x4 Lifter Ticking

    Hello everyone, I have a 2019 Ram Rebel 4x4 with the 5.7 Hemi. The truck has 176k miles on it. I do a lot of traveling for my work, and most of those miles are highway miles.

    Hemi Tick?

    Hey y'all, I've been trying to track down a ticking noise that I've noticed since buying my '06 1500 (5.7 Hemi). It doesn't sound like the usual lifter or exhaust manifold tick based on what I’ve heard online. The noise only shows up when I accelerate past a certain point—not when I start the...

    4th gen inner rockers on 3rd gen?

    So my 05 quad cab ram has some pretty decent rust spots in certain sections on both sides. I know that there’s no production for the oem inners so I went to the 2009 model year since that was the first year they had listed and the oldest closest to the 3rd gen. Has anyone used any early 4th gen...
