    SiruisXM Guardian on sale for 60% off ($60 instead of $150 for 6 months)

    I know SiriusXM Guardian is a controversial issue, and can be hit or miss even for me, but I just got a mail offer to knock the price down 60% for 6 months for the full package (normally $150, now $60). Note that all the SiriusXM music service discount catches apply; you have to provide a...

    LSD or Locker

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again; if you are willing to spend the money on the mechanical LSD, then just buy the e-locker; it is far more beneficial, and in the rare few situations that you can't use the e-locker, the brake-simulated LSD will perform as well as a mechanical LSD. In all...

    What's with the oil catch cans?

    I don't think the blow-by could cause that; the butterfly valve isn't in a position for the blow by to come anywhere near it by design (you can test this yourself by taking a vacuum, placing a water spray bottle between a hose attachment and the hose, placing your finger at the end of the...

    uConnect 12.1" & 8.4" - Intermittent Pauses in Audio for All Sources

    It's actually been posted in the really useful TSB thread since January: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/directory-of-service-bulletins-recalls-ram-1500.775/post-10920 https://www.dropbox.com/s/4upy7823d2u8wsq/UAX%20and%20UCX%20Radio%20Enhancements.pdf?dl=0

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    You can already turn the reverse tilt off in the Uconnect options without Tazer; are you requesting a shortcut to do this through a single button? Accessing the Tazer menu option to turn this off is at least as cumbersome as accessing the RAM/Uconnect settings to turn this off without the Tazer.

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    I can only imagine the light show this will cause on an etorque truck.

    What's with the oil catch cans?

    As far as the catch can, it needs to be air tight because it is directly connected to the air intake after the air filter and would allow destructive contaminants from the engine bay almost directly into the cylinders if it leaked. As far as venting the PCV system into atmosphere, I think that...

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    I’ve learned a long time ago to keep a small boot camp partition for those kinds of things; open source ecu programming was like that. I also use Parallels with it, but it isn’t needed.

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    You are brave; one more unlock to the sequence activates the truck's self-destruct mode to keep it from falling into the hands of the enemy.

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    You can also fold the mirrors every time with a button press and thus don't need the AutoFold feature.

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    Parking lot protection; retract when driving, stay deployed when parked to give a little barrier to the door and shopping cart ding patrol.

    Backup Camera Centerline

    Bad news; the dealership told me it is a Ram issue, and Ram needs to provide an update or a TSB before the dealership can add the centerline, and it isn't a "repair" or "defective hardware". They told me to contact Ram on my own and get Ram to send the dealership information, even after I gave...
