    Fuel filter replacement interval-Mopar just changed the owner's manual

    The filter is ridiculously overpriced. It is a pleated filter: nothing more, nothing less. It should cost the same as any half-decent oil filter on the shelf at Advance Auto or NAPA. The MOPAR pricing is insulting.

    Heating Issues

    Glad the heating issue is resolved...BUT... The bigger issue is what caused the coolant to get low?

    EDT fuel additive - regular vs. performance dose ?

    I pulled out some of my spare filter housings. Here are some pix... The above shows the complete filter assembly, with the part number for those interested... Next picture: This clearly shows that there are two connectors. ;) The two-prong connector is for the water sensor. Next...

    Heating Issues

    What was your coolant temperature when this was happening? Oil temp?

    EDT fuel additive - regular vs. performance dose ?

    Edited: I was wrong about the connector. See the next post downstream... Gotcha. I have several fuel filter housings for my US 2021 Ecodiesel (and my son's 2022). The only electrical connection is for the water sensor. (Insanely, it was cheaper to buy an entire new filter housing, with...

    EDT fuel additive - regular vs. performance dose ?

    I did not know that. Do you have a reference about the fuel filter being heated? Thanks.

    Tried using a zf 8hp transmission pan...oops

    Okay, you guys have pushed me over the precipice! I'll order one tomorrow. Thanks for sharing you experiences. It made the difference.

    Tried using a zf 8hp transmission pan...oops

    Where did you source a gasket? If you pulled it off your old pan, any difficulties? Thanks!

    Tried using a zf 8hp transmission pan...oops

    Folks, I bought a zf 8hp pan for a different vehicle. I thought it'd be the same as the one in the truck. I was wrong. LOL...yes, I measured before I did anything. The Ram ecodiesel has a deeper pan (by ~1/2") than the one I bought. Soo... I found PPE has aluminum pans for our trucks with...

    Coolant being used. Symptoms...and looking for ideas?

    Folks, My son's 2022 Big Horn EcoDiesel has been using coolant. Slowly...but more than my 2021 Laramie. He's got ~41k miles on his truck. If we had not topped off the reservoir tank every few months, he'd be 2-3 inches below mininum. (He's owned it since new, with 12 miles on the odometer. No...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    My dealer (the service manager) has told me that the HPFP recall requires two visits: one to see what parts are needed and the second to install said parts (once they arrive, obviously). It seems odd. Maybe they're checking for metal in the filter???

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Just a follow up after a bit more than two years of owning a Retrax cover with MFT. In fact, my son has a similar setup (MFT and Retrax) on his '22 Big Horn, so this is based on two trucks and about 4 total years of ownership between the two. First, Retrax does NOT recommend their cover with an...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    FWIW, I called my local RAM dealer to schedule my HPFP recall. (This is Z96 recall. I also need Y81, which reschedules (increases?) DEF usage.) The service department transferred me to the "Customer Relations" person. She did not answer. (Tried 5 times over 2 days.) I left a message. Supposedly...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Do you know what's different about the new pumps (CP4) compared to the old ones (CP4)?

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Did your back go out as you lunged away? Paper cuts are to be feared. Cuts, painful enough as they are, can lead to infections, gangrene, and amputation. It would be natural to have an adrenaline magnified startle reflex, jump too hard, and end up with back spasms a day or two later. You may...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Tell her you want to see the old one after the recall is complete. Because you want to make sure it was actually done. ;)

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    I'll call my dealer soon. If they try to schedule a pre-inspection, I'll ask where it calls for that...after getting the service manager on the line. I will, of course, have him email that requirement to me. I'll tell him I want a written record of the need for me to come by the dealership twice...
