    Has anyone DIY'd spark plug replacement?

    I’m at 212K, no transmission service yet. Currently on the fence. Some say it would do more harm than good at this point…. I have 2.5 years of Mopar Max care. If trans goes, hopefully it’s in 2.5 years. Those plugs aren’t OG. Today’s change make third set. Factory were changed at 99.9 k...

    Has anyone DIY'd spark plug replacement?

    I appreciate your video. I didn’t remove the rebreather or oil fill foam. Also didn’t get the bracket wiggled as loose as you. Cut the zip tie holding down the girth working for injectors which gave me enough wiggle room to manipulate that triangle bracket. Only dropped my 1/4 inch drive ratchet...

    Has anyone DIY'd spark plug replacement?

    Couple folks have said they’re still good. 112K miles on em. I’m no expert, what’s a “bad” plug look like? How many more miles you reckon I could have gone? I’m split 70/30 on highway vs city driving.

    Has anyone DIY'd spark plug replacement?

    My first 100k miles I had the dealer do it. They charged me $600. I’m sitting at 212K miles now and decided to tackle this project myself because dealer now wants $1300. NGK iridium from rock auto. I have the etorque. It was a tight, but I’m a man and spit on that bracket and slid on...

    Belt tensioner

    New belt tensioners and water pump yesterday. Today start/stop engaged, then truck failed to restart. Helluva squeal noise. Stranded trying to figure out how to reset this thing to have tension on the belt again.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    what’s up with these front axles? I ain’t got no lift on it. Now I gotta get a new passenger output shaft. Also, just got 210K miles on my ‘20. Having the water pump and belt tensioners changed. Outside of the dang axles, I’ve been pleased. Suggestions on aftermarket?

    Factory Brakes

    Ya. driving styles matter for sure. I’m an older millennial that was constantly yelled and slapped around by a boomer dad. I’m scared to use my brakes most days. 🤣🤣

    Oil Analysis

    Recent oil analysis results. Reckon I’ll stick to oil change indicator percentage after all. Maybe the Ram engineers do know a thing or two. Penzoil 5w20 high mileage full synthetic.

    Blue Screen of Death

    I’ve read that in the past folks have issues with the 12” screen, mainly the backup camera screen being blue and advising backup camera unavailable. I have a 2020 1500 with only 3000 miles and I’m getting this as well. I read where an update was required but that was over a year ago.
