I put 7 quarts in on a recent HO oil change and it's showing max safe level... interesting considering it calls for 7.5 (maybe that's the dry number), but after seeing several people getting overfill messages when using the correct amount, I erred on the lower end. I'd say the alert is somewhere...

The situation was handled poorly on both sides. I don't see why you'd just show up without scheduling an appointment for something that will take hours to do plus having the correct parts in stock. Sure, they'll take your keys and get to it... whenever. Either they were extremely backed up, or...

Correct, but they will get an actual alert when it is overfilled or underfilled... not getting that with a dipstick. Still, it'd be nice to have BOTH.

And just like that, the promised fuel savings are completely wiped out.

The biggest differences I noticed was it being slightly wider and higher resolution. The increase in vertical height is actually completely lost because they embedded the parking sensor and air suspension buttons into the display now... which looks dumb IMO - the old toggle switches were much...

I've put a few thousand miles in my wife's GW with the HO - the Hurricane is impressive, no doubt about that. But we are looking at swapping her GW S2 for a S3, and I am specifically seeking out one with the 6.4 Hemi. After test driving one, having been away from the Hemi for several years now...

Unbranded Chinese junk HEPA, maybe. If you want real HEPA, get the Bosch 6090C. People laud K&N but the reality is it filters far less - that's the only way it achieves more airflow with the same filter size. If you're okay with that, go for it... but I stay perfectly comfortable even with the...

Electric+ will likely keep the generator turned off, in all conditions, until the battery reaches its minimum allowed SoC. Eco will be whatever they deem to be the most efficient programming - realistically, this would mean using electricity the entire time if the trip distance is within what...

If it's not providing torque on engine start... how is it starting the engine? And since the truck is still in gear, with the engine spinning up, yes, it is providing torque. The videos and articles regurgitate marketing information which is largely lacking in how the system actually works...

My wife's GW has a slight rattle in that RPM range, only heard outside the vehicle (like when she backs into the garage). I assumed it was an exhaust rattle, but perhaps it's what you're describing.

It's the opposite IMO. The coolant is slow to warm up, partially because these small diesels don't output a lot of waste heat at no/low load, and the coolant/oil and very in-sync temp wise presumably through a heat exchanger of some sort. When I use the block heater in the winter, the coolant...

Your post didn't have that information. Regardless, unless you're in the arctic tundra, you could've just added some distilled water. It would slightly increase the freezing point, but would have gotten you through just fine. Not only that but being down to MIN is not anywhere close to damaging...

Why would you? It's not worth the risk. A jug of Mopar coolant can be had for ~$20 on eBay or Amazon. If you buy the concentrate (not pre-mix) and a gallon of distilled water, boom, two gallons worth of coolant.
