    my truck is throwing DTC code U0645 - What is this and can I fix this myself?

    Any chance you know where they disconnected it? I had leaky exhaust manifolds replaced at the dealer now I have the same issue. I'm going on a long distance trip that could knock me out of warranty mileage...

    How long for a drivers side exhaust manifold stud replacement?

    Anyone know how long it takes to get broken studs replaced? I live an hour away from my dealer and I haven't heard back from them. I'm wondering if it's short enough I can sit and wait for it.

    Larger oil filter on a 4x4 1500?

    That's what I was looking for. I'll have to do that next time I just picked up a wix. I used a purolator one last change and got lifter noise so I was hoping to get something bigger that would flow better.

    My First Oil Change - Some Notes for those interested in trying it themselves

    Just a heads up, Look at the one star reviews on those ramps. I thought that would be convenient but not worth my life, I'll stick to jack/ stands.

    Larger oil filter on a 4x4 1500?

    I read once on here that a filter off an older ram would fit. I can't seem to find that information anymore. What year is it off of and will it fit a 4x4 ram. Thank you. 2019 5.7

    Backup camera not working

    If you have green lines it's probably the camera or the camera's connection. I kept getting the green lines had to take it to multiple dealers since it was intermittent. Luckily one of them accepted a video of it as evidence and replaced the camera. 4000 miles later 0 issues.

    Grinding noise when turning to the right

    I'm no engineer but I think a software issue that causes a hardware grind that gets progressively worse is going to take more than a update to fix the physical issue. Of course this might not apply to all of our grinds but my steering was getting loose before my rack was replaced.

    Napa Gold VS Silver air filter.

    Surface area is where the particles can cross. More surface area = more places to cross. As far as NAPA gold vs silver, there is no difference in surface area, both 9 pleats per inch. And based on WIX part numbers I think they're exactly the same.

    Napa Gold VS Silver air filter.

    Pleats add surface area so it reduces restriction the only time it could increase restriction is if the pleats were so packed it blocked air flow. So say your theory is right about angle reducing flow. if you have 9 pleats per inch assuming the pleats are 1" deep which seems reasonable...

    For the same reason your brain matter is wrinkled, pleats add surface area. Which means more media and less restriction.
