    Cabin odor

    tried that. Cleaned out the K&N filter, put a little air freshener in it.. still there. It was the first thing I tried. I haven’t checked my drains…need to do so. Appreciate Jtr’s idea.

    Battery died again

    Yep, that’s what the post #4 was talking about. 21K miles, new in Aug 2023, no battery issues. I’ve left mine in cold weather airport parking for 7 days…no issues. In my driveway in cold/snowy temps, 3-4 days, no issues. I have a Jeep Wrangler I drive when it’s snowy and icy…or, it’s sunny and...

    Need help please drove my truck into a small rain stream

    I don’t mean to sound like a jerk, so please, no offense. I thought about air in the system as well. But anyone that can replace a radiator AND a water pump, I would think…knows how to burp out the system. Anything could happen, it was my first thought as well…

    2021 ram. Possible to replace radio dials? Were chewed off! 🐶

    In addition to this…since it’s on a dealer lot, let them replace it before purchase.

    Need help please drove my truck into a small rain stream

    Just a crazy guess…but since you drove through that much water, is there any chance… that either the cooling fan either got disconnected OR the cooling fan motor shorted out? Or..by replacing the radiator, it wasn’t hooked back up correctly?

    Cabin odor

    Interesting… I found this thread by chance. Cat urine is exactly I smelled. Cleaned my K&N Cabin filter, it was a little dusty, but not horrible. I even sprayed a little new car smell air freshener on it. I still catch a whiff of it now and then. No cats, nothing nested underneath, nothing...

    E torque alternator.

    If you get the “right” extended warranty, in my case, second truck with Max Care, there’s really no fighting. What the warranty can’t help you with is time. If a part is out of stock, back order, etc…. What it can help with is unexpected repairs… Your money, your preference… I get it. With...

    E torque alternator.

    Coming from 3 previous Hemi trucks, non e torque (2006, 08, 2015) I can notice the differences: S/S obviously, not in the previous 3 trucks Very, Very smooth shifting while accelerating. Regenerative braking is very noticeable…and my gut tells me my brakes will last longer as a result, I simply...

    Ram 1500 2023 etourque - junk

    In Michigan, here’s our lemon law requirements. Does it meet these: Question: What if the problem I reported continues to be an issue? Answer: If the problem continues after a reasonable number of repair attempts, you may be entitled to a refund. The refund would be for the purchase or lease...

    2019 Ram 1500 Limited

    While I can’t help you, as I use the factory tri fold, the only question I’d ask is if you have Ram Boxes or not. Good luck in the search.

    E torque alternator.

    Correct. Your vehicle must meet certain criteria in order for S/S to be ready. This is not a comprehensive list, but I know Engine/fluid temps AND cabin temp need to be up to par for it to enable S/S. Via the first start with push button, or remote start if you have it, the primary 12V starter...

    E torque alternator.

    Yep, I covered that too. I said it only is used for S/S once it meets certain criteria.. I literally posted this: The Generator is only active for S/S once the criteria is met.

    E torque alternator.

    Look, I’m not trying to be a clown.. But you realize, in the very post you quoted me, I called it a generator…not once, not twice, but 3 times… I’m not the OP, therefore I didn’t create the headline for the post.. I know it’s not an alternator. The fact you quoted me calling it a generator…and...

    '24 1500 4wd Steering Binds, Jerks With Slight Turns on Snow

    Are you 1000% positive there was enough snow to help the front tires slip? I’ve used mine (2023) in 4WD high to park in 90 degree parking spots when lots were full of snow and no jerking.

    E torque alternator.

    Please elaborate.

    Warranty question

    Follow the manual and document. There are plenty of other threads here about changing the transmission fluid…. Here’s my take. If you’re going to sell it/trade it in after 125K, don’t bother changing the fluid…unless you specifically meet the owner’s manual requirements for towing. In short, RAM...

    2021 RAM 1500 Limited is Getting 8.5 MPG, Easy Driving, No Aftermarket Upgrades or Mods

    Aero mode lowers the front end half an inch over 63 or 65 miles an hour. You can turn it off if you want, I never bothered. You have to keep it above a certain MPH to keep it there.. I don’t recall the exact parameters, but I’m 100% certain it’s in the owners manual. Or…you could watch this, I...

    2021 RAM 1500 Limited is Getting 8.5 MPG, Easy Driving, No Aftermarket Upgrades or Mods

    You can find your rear end gear ratio on that same sticker, it’ll say 3:21 or 3:92 Running it in the mornings doesn’t help…but I do the same.. I don’t blame you. As you have time, fill up, hit the freeway for a nice drive, set the cruise at 70 for a stretch, return, fill up, see where you’re at...

    2025 Ram Fuel Mileage

    I don’t think so… but maybe. I see you’re on 2024… But the OP, and others, are 2025s. Not sure which engine USAF has…but otherwise, I only see the 3.0 mentioned, as such, SO or HO, requirement on both if premium fuel. Am I misreading anything?
