    How hot have you gotten your oil?

    This explains why your oil pressure is so high at 284* oil temp and 4600 rpm. @ 212* oil temp the oil is equivalent to 40w.

    How hot have you gotten your oil?

    My guess is that the OP is possibly using a higher weight oil like 5w30 or more.

    How hot have you gotten your oil?

    With the 2022 Hemi towing a 7k# enclosed car hauler through WV/VA on I64- I77 the most I’ve seen was 255* oil temperature traveling North and it was brief. When I towed the same route pulling same load with my 2011 Hemi Ram the max oil temp I seen was 220*….. same oil (5w20). Have towed this...

    eTorque Bearing Replacement, Fixed Grinding Noise

    Did you use or do you think a 12t press would do the job? Or would the 6t be able to handle?

    Are you happy with your Ram??

    4ys, 58k miles, over half towing 7K# enclosed car hauler and the only problem has been the leaking rear window. Filled up the rear window gap with flowable silicon… Fixed! Haven’t taken it back for the two recalls and don’t plan to.

    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    Yes, I’m looking at Laramie 4x4 and 33 gal not listed. Thanks for the heads up

    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    Although I believe you, I don’t see 33 gal tank listed in the specs for any of the models on the Ram website and looking at 2026 Laramie specifically. Looked at a 2026 Laramie window sticker and it’s not listed there either.

    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    26 gal is standard and 33 gal option is no longer on the website build. I'm not towing 7k# much over 200 miles with the standard 26 gal tank.

    Transmission Fluid Change

    In my 2011 Ram with 545RFE that didn’t have a drain plug, I used an oil sucker to take 4 qts out and then replaced. I did this several times in less than 100 miles replacing 12 qts in a system that held 16 qts. I did this at 50k and 100k miles. When I removed the pan at 140k miles to replace...

    Transmission Fluid Change

    These two questions are for those that did only a drain and refill of the transmission oil leaving the stock pan in place, not removing. Did the stock drain plug remain sealed after replacing? How much fluid was required to refill the transmission?

    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    I hope you’re right, and along with this the 33 gal fuel tank. I no longer see the fuel tank as an option.

    No need to change transmission fluid - BS?

    My 2022 Ram truck came with a standard 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain limited warranty. After that I believe you’re on your own. I bought the 7yr / 100k extended warranty and not changing trans oil / filter. I’m selling it when the warranty limits are reached. If I were keeping it, at 60k miles...

    Display Background color at night

    Figured this out. In the display settings you need to switch to manual and only get your choice of dark or light mode but not both meaning, you can’t program light during day and dark at night. Take your pick. Easy enough to switch back and forth in settings if desired. Unlike Android Auto that...
