    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    I did mine, just turn them in the counterclockwise direction, the whole piece will come out. they are a bear to break loose and a bit of a challenge to get back in oriented to align with the socket.

    fuel economy

    I think I discovered that in the dash it still shows locked all the time, but in the center console it shows locked/unlocked as it should. This truck is really turning out to be the worst purchase I've ever made, and also my first Ram.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    So I get to add totally dead batteries to my Rebel problems list. Drove to my parents for Christmas eve, stayed the night, went out to leave this afternoon, and nothing. No light, no horn. Put dads charger on it for a couple hours and it started. when I connected the charger, the horn started...

    Stuck tailgate latch

    close the other side and try unlocking after? use remote to open and pull on the latch while unlocking at the same time? just guesses.

    Oil sensor

    I have no issues with it... all other engine parameters are electric nowadays (temp/pressure/rpm). Keeping the oil level below MAX is probably best as well, less chance of frothing and windage.

    Hurricane oil pressure

    I'm sticking with the 0/20 until summer, then probably go to 5/30. Towing my boat across the AZ desert in 115+ temps with lows in the 80's.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    Break-in is really about getting the best possible ring seal on the cylinder wall. Other engine/drivetrain parts will also clearance/seat. Using heavy throttle without high RPM, then reduce the load and slow the RPM to allow the rings to cool down. Repeat. If you are too hard too long, they will...

    Headlight animation

    The special order window opened about 2 weeks after the buyback was offered. they let me drive the truck until that day, I ended up picking another off the lot, I didn't want to be without a truck for months. I totally regret that decision now as the newer production truck (Aug Vs Oct) has...

    2025 Level 2 Lighting Question

    I just installed the Lasfit combo pack bulbs in my truck, definitely brighter. I haven't driven at night yet, but the switchback white isn't as bright as I had hoped. The fronts really are a pain to change.

    No, they actually offered it to me, I wanted the lights!

    I got a buyback over it. you will not get the lights on a rebel.

    Oil sensor

    there is an oil level update procedure. warm engine, let sit a few mins on level ground. turn ignition to run and wait 4 minutes. turn off the power. that is supposed to reset the oil level to whatever the current level is. It is spelled out in the manual.

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Just finished my 1st oil change. Very disappointed to see oil coming out of the weep hole in the bell housing! looks like a rear main seal leak. Oil all over the sway bar and I noticed small oil spots in my driveway... the list of issues is ridiculous, and this just adds to the pile. A lifetime...

    fuel economy

    was the TSB for cold start issues. could be coincidence, they confirmed my center console was already current. I have no explanation why the transfer case lock works all of sudden.
