    Engine overheating

    Residual casting sand from the engine block is a huge issue with the 5.7 HEMI, dealer ended up replacing my radiator and thermostat.

    Hellcat Oil Pump Install

    Interesting, thanks for the response. As for the oil pressure I'm not as concerned now as I was, I'm seeing the same pressures with the stock oil pump when running Redline 5W-20 oil and MO-899 filter. Cold Idle: 52-53 PSI Hot Idle: 35-38 PSI Normal driving after warmed up: Anywhere from 50-53...

    Hellcat Oil Pump Install

    Did you run into any issues with the VVT/MDS system after the oil pump upgrade? I'm looking to do the same on my 2019 Ram 1500. I read on a Challenger forum that someone ran into issues with the stock tune afterwards, was it just bolt up and go for you? Also, can you advise before/after PSI...

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    It’s not a guarantee that’s the problem but they fail all of the time on these engines as early as 20,000 miles, and they start by making slight noises like this however the noise will have to get undeniably louder for them to acknowledge it as a problem, I’ve brought mine in 5-6 times for the...

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    yeah that’s what I was hearing exactly in the first couple minutes of the video especially, same thing here, I’m thinking lifters. You’ll notice it more in cold weather.

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    I’m hearing a couple of different sounds in the video, the rattle sound it makes when you first step on the gas after a coming to a complete stop in the first couple minutes of the video sounds like mine. Seems to go away after warmed up. I also hear a metallic screeching sound later in the...

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    I have not listened to it yet, can you provide a link to the video?

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    93 octane cleared up the pinging sound under load but the metallic rattle sound hasn’t gone away, it’s especially bad during cold weather driving until the engine warms up, it’s for sure lifter related.

    Slight vibration when in park

    I’m thinking lean running condition as well, has to be something with the ECU, intake manifold or throttle plate, I don’t think it’s ignition or fuel related but it’s driving me crazy. Dealer said they couldn’t replicate the condition, I had an O2 sensor code (P0137, Bank 1 Sensor 2 low...

    Slight vibration when in park

    I’m experiencing a rough idle while in park as well, turning of the A/C didn’t seem to change it, feels like a misfire.

    Normal engine temperatures?

    Thank you all. Sounds like I’m within normal range, almost had a stroke when I saw the temperatures in the summer lol

    Overheating while towing

    Any damage from running it at 125-126C?

    Normal engine temperatures?

    Hello, This is my first post on 5th gen rams forum. I have a question about the normal operating temperatures for the 2019 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi Lone Star. I’m seeing the following temperatures while on the freeway at speeds of 70-75MPH, ambient temperatures are 90-100F. coolant temperature...

    Overheating while towing

    Did they replace the radiator on the truck and did that fix it? What’s going on with it now?

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    I’ve found that mine runs best on 93 Octane (RON95) but it still makes some noise (could be because it’s mixed with 89 right now) I’m sure the fuel trims have to adjust to the higher octane rating too before any noticeable changes.
