    Fuel pump on my new 2022 Rebel just blew up

    If you go past 30 days out of service, lemon law it and get a refund or a new truck. The "parts shortage" is their problem, a lack of planning relying on just in time BS inventory management. The only way they are going to change is if it starts costing them much more money.

    Problem, I found a truck I want out of state

    There's dealers here, as mentioned that will order and sell you the exact truck you want at invoice or even below invoice, forget MSRP and that BS. In some cases saving you $10-15k and they will give you the current incentives and lock in the pricing. You can chose to pick up the truck, or ship...

    Multiple warning lights while driving , No bus error, and then no start. Then suddenly, back to normal.

    Your battery is dying or you have a loose ground. Or there's water in the harness by the driver A pillar. Get battery 100 amp load tested, not just voltage. Check the grounds by the hood prop. Take them off and make sure they aren't painted over, from the factory, they will be. Follow ground...

    found a way to try and prevent catalytic converter theft

    Just make it so that to "recycle" you have to buy a new one. again though make all the laws you want, the criminals don't care. The real way is follow the money, whoever is buying them and funding the people stealing them are who you need to go after. Go up the chain to who ever is buying or...

    Ride Height Not Permitted Due To Payload

    I had a similar message on mine after going through some deep water. One of my connectors on the load sensors was loose and I opened it up, cleaned it and made sure it was snapped together securely. They are waterproof connectors, but the connector wasn't latched fully. You can see the sensors...

    Ram 1500 fuel door

    Just a pic I had about the diesel cap, but shows the hinge area. Did you knock the "door" off or the whole hinge? The hinge seems to pop out too. I knocked the "door" off, which just kinds clips on there. The whole piece is only like $30-50, look up the part numbers...

    FCA used "Bait & Switch" on new vehicle rebate!

    Statute on written contracts is usually 2 years, but 10-20 depending on state and circumstances and unlimited for some kinds of fraud.

    2022 Ram 1500 Values?!

    Economy is about to sink to levels most here have never seen. Values are dropping that fast and interest rates are going way up. Trading in a new model has usually been a sign of regret and dealers are all over that being the predators that they are. The past couple years have been a rarity...

    Help. Old guy question here. UConnect and Android Auto.

    Plug in with a USB cable first, you should see a prompt on your phone to connect. If not, go into u connect apps, go to phone and projection manager. Toggle it ON for your phone. If you want to use wireless, you have to connect to the radio and pair with bluetooth. That should then trigger the...

    FCA used "Bait & Switch" on new vehicle rebate!

    Its usually worth it to file small claims if its over a couple hundred bucks. Car stuff is pretty cut and dry, that said if they screwed up they should be able to fix it within 7-30 days of signing. Stuff gets messed up all the time with car sales and needing things redone. If they really want...

    Help. Old guy question here. UConnect and Android Auto.

    You can pick the "cards" the screen shows, either fullscreen, or half music, half apps, half buttons, climate or whatever. It should remember what you used last. If you have music fullscreen and then plug in phone for waze, android auto or whatever it should go back to how you selected last...

    What’s your oil consumption rate?

    It's scary how loud and super powerful it is, roaring, smoke billowing. It's like fighting a dragon lol. A lot of newer diesels have a metal flapper to close the throttle body to try and prevent/stop a runaway now, but I'm not sure how well it would work when it'll inhale anything and everything.

    Idle Oil Pressure Difference

    Yep, there's some threads on it here somewhere. I think in the tuning thread. One of the popular mods it to put a real oil pressure sensor in. The stock dead switch trips at 8psi. Thats the red oil can light, not the message. It does have some other values, like the oil pump resistance and a few...

    What’s your oil consumption rate?

    It would have to go up quite a bit. I've seen trucks overfilled by dealers, like 2-3 quarts over. The beating the oil isn't so bad itself, it's if it gets sucked up higher into the engine. On a diesel, if it goes up to any of the vents, it can get sucked into the intake and then you get a...

    Idle Oil Pressure Difference

    If the oil was breaking down, it would usually get thinner first, then thicken and be sludge. The oil psi reading in the cluster is a "fake" computed value based on RPM and temperature. There's no real pressure sensor other than a low oil pressure idiot switch that lights the oil CEL red light...
