    What is your oil pressure?

    Btw, beware of K&N air & oil filters. Their designs focus more on flow than filtering out as much as possible.

    What is your oil pressure?

    Possible but doubt it. All oil filters have a filter bypass. When the filter gets "full" or clogged, the bypass kicks in, allowing the oil to still flow but not be filtered anymore. Pressure is determined by the amount of restriction present, the filter media being one of those restrictions. It...

    Did Chrysler Fix the Hemi Tick for 5th Gen?

    I used amsoil 0w-20 signature series & their filter in my '06 for over 10 yrs. I never had a oil issue except for a front timing cover leak at the end of ownership & valve cover gaskets years before. Changed oil & filter once a year or 25k, whichever came first. It never had a cold start tick, &...

    Ceramic coating, yay or nay?

    I've thought about going the professional ceramic route, but I use the mother's cmx spray. I've tried the griot's garage 3 in 1 ceramic spray as well. The griot's just didn't seem to last as long as the cmx to me (I exclusively use nothing but griot's garage car products. The cmx is the only...

    Full Synthetic Oil - Why Not Use 0W-20?

    I used amsoil 0w-20 oil & their filter in my '06 ram 5.7 and ran it 12 yrs like that. Even changed the oil the 1yr or 25k miles, whichever came first, never had any oil related mechanical issues. The last 2yrs I had it, it had a front timing cover leak that I just added oil to compensate for...

    I want rear camera always on

    Can the Tazer DT eliminate the cargo light lock as well? Because the light won't come on at all unless you have the truck in park & I would like the option for the same reason as the camera

    Leather Care

    Griot's Garage 3 in 1 leather care in spray form is what I use. Cleans, conditions, protects & is perfect for new or maintained leather. I've used it on the dash, seats, console lid, doors, steering wheel, everywhere leather. Don't necessarily use it on the suede because of the properties of it...

    2019 Ram 1500 My thoughts and opinions after 25,000 miles

    I hope you're able to enjoy the truck more with some of the "issues" fixed. A couple of friends of mine once had a transitional or first year jeep wrangler unlimited when they came out. It had a lot of problems & was the only wrangler unlimited i personally knew of that was 2 wheel drive. It...

    Paint Protection XPEL snag

    I'm having XPEL ppf installed on the front of the truck from the side mirrors to the front bumper. The grill however is a problem area. Apparently, because of the truck design being so new, XPEL doesn't seem to have a template for the grill on my truck yet. The guy doing it tried but ended up...

    Low Profile front mud flaps guards done.

    This is what I'm debating on doing. I like the mopar lengths but don't like the design. I like the weathertech & husky designs but I don't like longer lengths. Did you use a template for the length & corners or did you eye ball it?

    New to the site

    Well the main focus is to take care of it. I've been good with ceramic sprays but I'm thinking about stepping up to a clear bra on the complete front, mudflaps, ect. I just like a heads up & advice as much as the next guy, & help offer the same. It would have a dash cam already but I dont like...

    New to the site

    Hi guys, just joined the site. I upgraded from my 06 ram to a 2020 ram in september. I had the 06 since I was 19 & I'm 32 now & it was my only vehicle the whole time so it had a good run. I'm looking forward to the discussions on our trucks!
