    A/C Performance

    So my truck has undergone the TSB repair. I don't know if it made a difference as it isn't all that warm currently, even in Houston!!!! Anyway the car seems to be put back together without issue, and I am very aware of minor changes/noises, etc., from my years working in an automotive assembly...

    A/C Performance

    I just got a call from my SA and the parts are in to make my repair. I'm taking in my truck later today and they will begin the repair in the morning.

    A/C Performance

    I didn't go through details but the service advisor had the TSB and mentioned there was a lot to this repair and it would take a day or 2.

    A/C Performance

    I took my Ram 1500 in to the dealer today and they evaluated (not sure what they did) my vehicle. Anyway, I explained what the issue was, explained that my vehicle appears to be covered under the TSB and they checked it out. They are ordering all of the needed parts listed in the TSB and will...

    A/C Performance

    Typically the repair times listed may be more or less than the actual time the technician takes to make the repair. The times are the times that Ram or an other manufacturer will pay the dealer for the repair and at most dealerships, it is the time amount of time the technician gets paid...

    A/C Performance

    Upper glove box light

    Took my Ram in last weekend and my dealer couldn't notice the issue. A little frustrating, but I will be back to get them and get it fixed. Drives me crazy seeing that little bit of light at night. I can reach over and push on the upper glove box and get the light to turn off, but the next time...

    A/C Performance

    So I finally got around to measuring the vent temp on my 2019 Ram. With ambient temps in the low 90s, I measured a vent temperature of 51 degrees. I'm due for an oil change and need to have a couple of items fixed, such as the upper glove box door light always staying on, so I'll bring this...

    Driving Characteristics - 3.21/5.7 eTorque vs. 3.92/5.7

    As I understand it, the Etorque will not add any HP/Torque, but will supplement the power delivery from a start, allowing the truck to use less fuel when accelerating. My truck has the 3.21 gears (no Etorque), and I too don't intend to tow much, if at all. I intentionally went this route for...

    Orange Peel

    Years ago I worked as a supervisor in an automobile assembly plant and spent a lot of time managing various areas of the paint department. There are many reasons why some vehicles might have more orange peel than others, but the primary reason is 10-20% of vehicles get painted more than once. If...

    Handy-dandy Tool (RO Polisher)

    need to post a pic, but wet sanding will only help if the scratch hasn't gone any deeper than the clear coat. Likely you will need to "fill" the scratch with paint, and then wet sand it smooth.

    side mirror removal to replace mirror cap

    I finally took on this project without breaking any mirrors. I purchased a decent tile/glass suction tool similar to simbad001 from Home Depot (https://www.homedepot.com/p/QEP-4-7-8-in-Suction-Cup-for-Handling-Large-Tile-and-Glass-75000Q/100119050). It is pretty warm today in Houston (around...

    Poor fuel mileage highway

    I have a 4x2 Hemi, 3.21 rear axle and get around 17-18mpg in suburban driving, 20-21mpg at 75-80 on the highway. Those numbers will likely go up 1-2mpg when we get back to summer blend gasoline.

    What are you guys using on the plastic trim?
