    Quick question about Razer DT

    Yes! i have a 2019 Longhorn. Purchased my tazer dt over 3 years ago and I use it to set My DRLs to Amber/orange option. I spent $300.00 for my tazer and I feel it was a worthy upgrade. 1 new anti-theft feature recently added with the latest firmware upgrade is the ability to create a custom...

    Ticking noise, 6000 Miles Hemi.

    I just had my truck serviced today for this. My engine would tick very loudly upon cold start and the ticking would gradually come to a stop once the engine warms up. The problem was a cracked bolt on the driverside exhaust manifold which needed to be replaced. Total cost for repair was $889.00

    2021 misfiring... any solutions?

    I had a misfire on cylinder 3 two years ago. ended up cracking the cylinder head. it was a nightmare dealing with fca. They were horrible. My truck sat at the dealership for 9 weeks. My point here is anyone who experiences misfires should also check the cylinder head.

    Exhaust manifold recall

    I had my right exhaust manifold replaced on my 19' under warranty last June 2021 @ 46K miles . dealership told me my left manifold was going as well. Fast forward to present day (62K miles on engine) and I can literally smell the exhaust fumes through my ac vents every time i drive.

    Exhaust tips uneven?

    Yup! installed my magnaflow catback in 2019. Identical offset just as you describe. INstalled my bedstep a year later and it "bangs like a Bell" if you slam her shut
