no one. I'm guessing 10 quarts or so

Hello I am getting ready to complete a radiator drain and refill on my 2019 Ram 1500 5.7 liter. I know the system's capacity is around 18 quarts, but if I'm doing a radiator drain and refill, how much should I expect to drain?

Curious, is your Ram a 4x4? I'm wondering why some pans are deeper?

Sorry, I didn't.

Probably correct on the twisted pair scheme for these wires. CAN bus cable consists of a pair of wires known as CAN high and CAN low (indicating high and low speed, respectively). Both wires are twisted tightly together to ensure that electromagnetic interference affects the signal in both wires...

I don't buy it. Those cable should be shielded, right? I'm still calling BS on this one

Absolute BS. How could some random RF signals interfere with a system that is hardwired?

So I backed into a bollard about a year ago and finally got around to replacing the bumper that I purchased. Getting the bumper removed from the truck is extremely easy. Removing some of the black plastic trim pieces is not as easy. The top piece of trim or step pad (flat horizontal piece) has...

I used the part from the link BMW Auto Trans Oil Pan (With Filter) 24118612901 - ZF 1087298247. The link shows the BMW part to be 24118612901, but I can't say I checked the part number before installing. I did physically compare the original ZF cover/filter with the part I purchased, and they...

I worked "Spill Out" for many years, where my group would inspect, spot sand/polish, perform spot repairs and determine which vehicles would need to be repainted. After looking at 70 vehicles/hour for years, your eyes become trained to find defects extremely quickly. The picture of the zoomed in...

You see how the paint toward the front of the hood is kind of blurry where the black trim is in focus. This could just be the pic, but i was assuming if the trim was in focus, the hood's edge should be in focus. If the reflection in the hoods paint is blurry, the hood may have been repainted.

If the truck is only 3 months old, take it in for warranty repair. Sounds like the receiver is bad. I'm not sure if there is one receiver or 2, but your keyfobs would be operating on an RF signal, where the app control is likely a cellular signal.

The pic isn't the best, but it looks like the hood has been repainted to me. I worked in an automobile assembly plant for 5 years, mostly in the paint department. Paint has what is a called Distinctness of Image or DOI, which is basically how clear the reflection is. Your hood's reflection...

My Auto Comfort has this problem also. Won't save any changes but turns on the heater and defroster even though the setting is "off"

I'd like to see the receipt of what was included for $450. I'm guessing the pan/filter is $300-400 and the fluid is 6 quarts at $20-30 at the dealer.
