    What did you do to your Ram today???

    because of course. I just noticed monday that I too have this problem. I was actually considering shimming it to address the issue rather than go back to FCA service center hell.

    Possible to Add Air Suspension?

    from what I have gathered on here so far, the air suspension has some durability problems related to moisture accumulation in the tanks and fouling the valves that control the system.

    Lifter Failure Before 30k miles

    https://www.dca.ca.gov/acp/pdf_files/englemn.pdf CA lemon law. read up and get ready. the track you are on is not encouraging. california is original warranty duration, so that's 3/36 for you. . The manufacturer or its agents have made two or more attempts to repair a warranty problem that...

    Transmission is ruined

    Dealers get paid in shaved pennies from FCA for diagnostic warranty work. a time intensive diagnosis may lead to only a moderate payback on repair and warranty work could become a loss proposition depending on the complexity of the problem. As for damage to the brand, I haven't got the...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I debadged the vendor decals from my Roll-n-lock and my step up bars for a cleaner look. I used a springsteel pry tool that I had polished all of the burrs off of to keep from scratching underneath. I also swapped out the factory mats for a set of weathertechs due to a very sheddy dog of mine.

    First Ram Ever

    Find a service center that is well reviewed. I expect you will need it. the initial quality control has been very poor on the DT as I've gathered from the material on here and fb.

    Things you can't get on a Big Horn vs Laramie

    tow package also deletes air suspension, and changes the diff to 3.91 from the lower ratio diff. I am not sure about the build for the horn. the laramie that I got has - auto dimming mirror puddle lights blind spot power tailgate drop rear vent window powered (for what its worth. lots of folks...

    Things you can't get on a Big Horn vs Laramie

    There are a few dual cone setups, they count each of those as 2. aside from that, they put them all over the damned place.

    Bumper Plugs Available

    I did the chrome plugs from lowes. for colored bumpers, get a paint touch up pen and you can make them match pretty easily.

    Why get 12 inch vs 8.4 inch?

    most of the AC features have been shuffled about. all of the seat temps have been moved to screen. you can over/under the same info thats on the 8 inch screen. so you can have backup and stereo over under for example. more common I would imagine is over/undering phone and radio or nav and...

    The amount of pop up ads and other crap on this site, prevents access to forums

    not entirely true. I am a site supporter and still get the vendors on the side. endorsed ads, but still ads.

    Added Wireless QI Charger to my 2020 Ram Bighorn

    phone charging using the onboard charge. I just got my truck back from service and got the red light on charge. a mental light went off as my key fob was in the center console instead of on my left hip. the owners manual said to keep the fob away from the wireless charge area as it will...

    Air Suspension Madness

    I don't have air ride, if I did, I would consider setting up an Arduino to handle the drain issue. when truck is on - accessory rail is on, have servo close drain valve. when truck is off - accessory rail voltage goes low, open the drain valve. manual pushbutton in cab for drain valve...

    Doggie freaking out

    there was another thread where a guy used a dynamat type material in the back of his ram. it would cover over a lot of the poor fitment of grommets and whatnot, and it would also add mass to the actual panels which could shift the resonant frequency away from what bothers your dogs. As I recall...

    no doubt it will be more labor intensive to do this than the stock solution. The parts will be cheaper and the labor will all be stuff I can do myself without involving the dealer. I also think the gear itself is cheap enough to take the gamble on. having a 360cam dvr would also help with my...

    unfortunately, surround view requires both the regular mirrors with integrated cams, front cam, and an additional module that connects the images together before sending it to the head unit. This of course is on top of the software change to enable the other mirror functions and the door panel...

    Added Wireless QI Charger to my 2020 Ram Bighorn

    I had another case for my phone initially. it didn't charge at all in the truck. now I have a non-slip case that is mostly hard plastic with non-slip overmolding. Definitely not a rugged type case. Wireless charging works fairly well and it doesn't overheat the same way as the phone did in the...
