    Stellantis Is Using Warehouse Robots To Keep Ram Production On Track

    Took 4 months to get my motor replaced. Not enough mechanics/techs! Take your pick of videos. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=lack+of+mechanics&atb=v439-1&ia=videos&iax=videos

    Faint coolant smell coming from the front of the radiator on a DT body style Ram 1500 V8 non-eTorque – weep hole in the water pump

    Same scenario, don't recall smelling it lately but did years back. I have also added coolant over the years. It's a quick check with the oil, oil changes, tire rotations, tire pressure adjustments, washes and waxes, window washes and so forth. Monitor and log level and any fluid added so at...

    My headlight switch is falling into the dash.

    I thought my switch was bad and pulled it out with the help of my wife's guitar pick and trim tools. The guitar pick is thinner than my trim tools. If you have to replace the switch make sure you buy the correct light switch, there are a few versions. The switch I ordered was $65 shipped by...

    Are 2025 and 2026 TPMS sensors (sending units) the same?

    Wish you the best of luck. My 2019 Ram OEM TPMS pick up tire rotations, no programming required. My 2011 Honda Fit I have to program.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I agree, bought them in silver billet but haven't installed as I think I would prefer granite crystal for more contrast. Part of the bucket list, which I could probably get more "check offs" if I stayed off this forum.

    TPMS questions - Swap from another Rebel

    Does "mine" mean OEM or non OEM? I've had 4 other sets of OEM tires/wheels with OEM TPMS and all my results were the same as Richard320 post #2.

    Train Air Horn - button location

    I'm a DIY and wired up my reverse lights, auxiliary reverse lights and some tail gate lights with a DPDT switch. I don't know if this will refresh your memory on DPDT switch. https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/license-plate-reverse-light.4787/page-19#post-376752 Post 364 I believe a...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Celica GT has the 2.2L. I wish it was the GTS. I have the repair manual and give things a shot but I have an ace mechanic across the street with his own lift and house projects taking up my time. The repair manual is great for figuring things out, it has no OBD port, don't have to deal with...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    1988 and 1990 look like the same generation. The one I have is in decent shape and it gets thumbs up every so often. I picked it up from the original owner with 153K in 2013 and put 40K on it, it was my son's daily driver. I believe the motor is bullet proof.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Man of my own heart. 1990 Celica 193K+. Unfortunately I let my 1985 Corolla SR5, 5 speed go and wife's 1984 Celica liftback, 5 speed. The 1990 Celica is automatic, not as much fun. I think my 1985 was 75 hp.

    Sport vs. Night

    Can't say about which one but the wheels are easy for me, not a fan of chrome wheels, but those are easy to swap out.
