    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I’ve run nothing but 93, for reference. Usually only filling up on base where I’m stationed, as well.

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Another update to my situation, I’ve gotten the truck back from the dealership. I put a pause on flushing the fuel system for $1200. Technician said the fuel was a little cloudier than he would’ve liked to have seen and after leaving the fuel sample out over night he saw some bubbles sitting at...

    Yeah I’m worried about more damage occurring because they haven’t actually identified the real issue, and I continue to shell out money until I replace the entire powertrain and associated harnesses or wiring

    Please keep us updated on this one, my service department said they’d check for bulletins but haven’t said anything since they brought it up and just keeps pushing the contaminated fuel topic

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    One small update, and sorry for having posted so much, but the service person left a message on my phone and said when they took the fuel sample, you could see separation in the sample that was probably water. If there’s enough water mixed with the fuel to cause misfires on startup, could that...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I plan on going to the dealership when they call so that I can be present for them getting the fuel sample and testing it. Depending on what ends up happening, I might end up just taking the truck back and draining the fuel tank myself and just cycle good fuel through it. Even if it ends up...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    To be clear, they originally told me there was presence of ‘foreign fluid in the fuel’, so I’m not necessarily sure how easy it would be to see a difference. Unfortunately I’m not an expert on fluids or fluid mechanics but if I should be looking for something in particular with what I’ve said in...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I definitely think it’s a possibility, the odds are just crazy to me. I was told they’d call me tomorrow when they take a sample because the one they already took has evaporated, but I’m going to call them in the morning to notify me when they plan on taking the fuel sample so I can be present...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Update for mine is they said they took a fuel sample and it was definitely contaminated fuel. Quoting me $1200 to flush the system. I still have a hard time believing this, after having driven so many different cars in so many different countries for the past 12 years, then I just happen to buy...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Hopefully I’ll be able to pick my truck up this week, as it seemed like they were done with it when I spoke with them last week and from checking the location, it’s just been sitting in their lot. After having told me that there was foreign fluid in the fuel which was causing my misfires on...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    If there’s gonna be some sort of software update for this issue, is that something you’d have to take it back to the dealership for? Since I’ve been dealing with this CEL problem that affects my remote start, they told me it was throwing a code for misfiring on start up and the cause was because...

    2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn CEL @ 1350 miles

    I actually took the truck on a roadtrip shortly after buying it, about 700 miles round trip. Since I’ve done that and having been driving it to and from work until I took it to the dealership, I honestly haven’t noticed any powertrain issues. Even once the CEL came on I finished my drive to work...

    2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn CEL @ 1350 miles

    After reading through the other thread where everyone is talking about something similar to this, and then the dealership calling me to tell me what the issue is, I already assumed it was a ******** answer. I’m going to bring this up to the service department at the dealership, but one thing I...

    2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn CEL @ 1350 miles

    The uconnect apple car play skipping should 100% NOT be an issue for any of us, but I’ve seen it throughout this forum and I think one or two others for various years of the uconnect. Crazy how that’s somehow not fixed by now. I haven’t really noticed anything in regards to my transmission, but...

    2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn CEL @ 1350 miles

    I purchased a 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn (with the standard output hurricane engine) on the 29th of June. Only had like 30 miles on it, rode smooth, absolutely loved everything about the truck. I started noticing that the remote start was very intermittent. Some times when I would attempt a remote...
