    Anyone running Falken Wildpeak HT/02's?

    Me too. Put the Continental TerrainContact H/T 275x70-18 on my 2020 and I believe they are better than the Michelins which I'll never buy again. My tire dealer says they have several full-timers and campers pulling large fifth wheels and swear by them.

    Service Advisors

    I've done that but my SA has never wanted to charge me a diagnostic fee. He just writes on the order what I said and sends it to the tech.

    USB Media Audio Issues (I've read the other posts)

    For any music file that won't play, I go to Google and convert the file to MP3. It is easy peasy and takes the time and irritation out of trying to figure out why it won't play. Your #4 above is the same as my Ram trucks. The only system I've had that would recognize folders was on my 2006...

    Remove rear seat backs?

    Yes, they still "lock up" normally. Trimming only changes the ability to fold them down. If you rim too much they will not lock up.

    4wd auto vs 4wd Low vs 4wd High

    It also depends on the driver's skill. 4lo has more torque and power and an unskilled driver will give it too much power and dig in rather than keep moving. 4hi is forgiving as it tends to keep you moving without the power to dig in. I've seen so many novices put it in 4lo and peddle to the...

    Tapping into hitch harness

    I tapped into the trailer wiring harness. My tapping method is to expose the harness wire, wrap the connecting wire, solder, and triple+ tape. Been doing it that way for over 70 years for 22-10 gauge wiring, and never had a problem. And, if any tech does a crimp drvice splice, I correct it...

    New Forum member in So. CA.

    Welcome from another SoCal member It took me a while to get used to the shift knob. Now it's so natural that when I get in my 3500 HO I reach for the radio knob rather than the shift lever :ROFLMAO:

    Renewable Diesel Fuel #2

    I understand all that and appreciate your actions to weed out the unwanted. I suggest that accusing someone before you know, is harmful and unprofessional. Keep up the good work.

    Renewable Diesel Fuel #2

    I'm on the fourth tank on my Ecodiesel and the sixth tank on my Cummins 6.7 HO

    Renewable Diesel Fuel #2

    You correctly describe a shill but calling Renewables a shill is wrong. There are a lot of misunderstandings, questions, and incorrect statements throughout this thread. Renewables has described Renewable fuel well and should be thanked rather than called out. I have switched 100% to...

    Yep. Forgot about that. I believe the trucks are delivered with the low beams set as DRLs

    Use your Alpha and make them your DRLs for daytime and keep set on auto for nighttime

    Collecting water mystery

    If your 2019 has the new hood they are notorious for holding water that gets in via the hood emblems. Raise your hood, if water flows out, that is the problem. The fix seems to be resealing the emblems or living with it.

    AlfaOBD Known Changes 5th Gen

    Your tire measurement method is quick and easy. I found the most accurate tire size number is obtained by placing a piece of tape on the bottom side of the rim or tire and a matching tape on the ground/concrete. Then roll the tire forward or backward one full rotation so the piece of tape on...

    BWoody Sway Bar Links with Hellwig Swaybar

    The Core End Links for my 2016 1500 did not come with spacers. They are built with an offset angle. It appears the current Core End Links are built straight and they use a spacer to make the offset. I use the Hellwig middle hole. Have considered changing to the stiffer inner hole.

    Sad- leaving the site.

    Wow! Amazingly, all that occurred in the short time you've been a member (Sept 9, 23) and over only 11 messages. If you believe the forum is a bunch of stuck-up Jerks you are doing the right thing. Cheers!

    AlfaOBD Known Changes 5th Gen

    Try what Wirerat posted (#379). That is a simple mod that seems to work for everyone on any Ram. Edited to clarify the process After you have connected to the Body Module follow these steps: Select Hood Open icon> Select Procedure to Start> Car Configuration Change> Select option> CBC...

    AlfaOBD Known Changes 5th Gen

    Welcome to the forum. Alfa can be a bit irritating at times. It is OK to leave the Bypass cable connected, and the MX+ if you like. On the backup file, after you have connected to the Body Module follow these steps: Select Hood Open icon> Select procedure to start> Backup Vehicle Configuration...

    Aux Reverse Light wiring

    That reverse light circuit is closed until you go into reverse. How can there be a back feed? I've been wired like this since my 2020 was new. Same with my 2016 1500 ECo but used a separate switch (no Aux Switches)) and have had no problems. If you are correct and there is a back feed it's...
