    Wiress charging pod

    I have Course Motorsports magnetic mount and a USB C cord. Works great. ;)

    My truck has been a nightmare! I don't think I can get myself to buy another Ram product again.

    1. Rear window/brake leak 1b. Rear speaker cutout 2. Active Tuned Mass issue 3. Tick before warmed up 4. Sudden (?) large mileage loss And a bad dealer. The bad dealer issue is the icing on the cake. It sets the mood and infuses every bite. ;) Number 1 should have been a goodwill repair...

    Rear window leak

    In the other thread, I mentioned that I dropped my truck off yesterday for a rear window swap. (I'll eat the cost of the aftermarket ceramic tint and dashcam mount replacement. Thanks, Ram.) They say I'll get it back today. Shrug. When I do get it, if it's good and I accept it, I'll clean it...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    I'm no expert, but... :) The CP4.1 has ".1" to signify a single-piston pump. The CP4.2 has a two-piston pump, hence the ".2". Both of them have the roller-bearing-in-a-cup-against-a-cam design. From what I can see, both the CP4.1 and the CP4.2 have a two-lobe cam with the lobes 180^ apart...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Having seen the video, linked upstream, I would PREFER to retrofit a Bosch CP3 style pump, since it eliminates any chance of this particular failure. How does the later CP4.2 differ from the earlier ones? (<- No, I don't expect you to have the answer, but maybe someone does.)

    Cold weather killing mpg?

    I think the EPA controls the fuel delivery requirements. They do it by some convoluted methodology that is as bad as you'd think it would be. AIUI, the fuel trucks cannot be used for different fuel blends without being cleaned out, raising the cost of delivery and the overall headache factor...

    Recirculation Venting Button Flashing

    Don't watch it: report it to the dealer and get an invoice, in writing, stating your concern about the recirc fan. If you do this, it'll function normally. If you don't, it will fail in 91 days, just after the warranty expires. ;) Seriously, if it didn't work when/how you wanted, let them run...

    How many miles on your Eco diesel?

    Last night I hit 19,000 miles. (BTW, only 380 hours of non-idle on the engine. Those are exact numbers. So, yeah, I guess my truck has a 50mph average so far in its life. ;) ) Oil at 2,500, then every 7,500. I use Amsoil cetane boost AND Amsoil deisel injector clean/lubricant every fill up...

    Rear window leak

    Okay... My dealer has my replacement rear window in hand. My appointment is for next week. Follow along: 1. These windows have a frame that is pre-attached. 2. The window/frame assembly is installed by running a (heavy?) bead of sealant around the opening in the truck body. (Hopefully the...

    My case, wet seat and carpet, heavy condensation on the interior. The leak is hidden. No cracked frame, no cracked glass. It is from the top left corner.

    Catch Can for the ecoDiesel without throwing codes?

    Yeah, their comms are not the best. ;) This is a side-thing for him/them, is my guess. I had a 6-week (ish?) wait to hear back and then a month (more or less?) to then got confirmation I'd get it, and then a week or two later (?), I got a shipping notification. THAT, the UPS shipping, was...

    Reach out to @RamCares . I'd bet they could do something. They've already hit this thread just upstream. (Worst case, keep your receipts. That class-action lawsuit may give you some relief.)

    Looking for Fumoto oil drain plug reviews

    F106SX It lets you "aim" the nozzle to where you want. It is nipple-less (sad Fumoto ;) ), so you need to use the included plastic elbow and length of tube. Cut the tube to length (whatever works for you). Attach the tube to the elbow. I use a screw clamp, because hot oil will expand the...

    Rear window leak

    My swap is scheduled for December 28th. I'm wondering about the cost of my dashcam mount ($25) and rear tint ($100?). I'll push Mopar to cover it. The damage is due to the failure of a window seal. And, I'm going to take a hard look at the leather cover on my rear seat. We'll see...

    Catch Can for the ecoDiesel without throwing codes?

    LOL...I wish? The 3" section replaces a 1" section. That extra 2 inches seems to make a big difference in how the hoses fit. It (the 3" extension) is larger than the standard hose. It fits perfectly where it is, but it would NOT fit at the other end or attached to the catchcan, due to the...

    Catch Can for the ecoDiesel without throwing codes?

    I'm not so sure about that. 1. Take all the rest of this with a grain of salt. 2. Add more salt. ;) 3. I =think= that the purpose of that 3" extension is to get the second pressure sensor to read a "correct" pressure. 4. I =think= the location of the first sensor is also very important. If it...

    Looking for Fumoto oil drain plug reviews

    That safety clip: this one (on my Ram) is the first one that I have had that has a safety clip. With the spring and detent built into the body, the safety clip is superfluous, IMHO.

    Catch Can for the ecoDiesel without throwing codes?

    The actual catchcan is easy to bolt in. There's a small pump located in front of the engine. Unbolt the driver's side, loosen the passenger side. Slide the catchcan mounting bracket under the driver's side mount. Reinstall bolt through the pump mount, through the catchcan bracket and into its...
