Just went through a 4 month wait to get my motor replaced. Lost some faith as there were no indications of any issues and nothing I can do to stop it from happening again. I have it back since Sept. 28th and have put a few miles on it. Happy to have it back, kind of like having a fight with...

Thinking back, I believe there may be a thread on sales people. I had gone to a batch of dealerships at my leisure and was not impressed at all with the sales people, finally dealt with a sales manager and got the Ram at invoice, along with 5K from Ram, true car $ and $500 coupon sent to me...

So different than 6 years ago when I was purchasing my Ram, sad. Ram needs to get rid of some of their managers and find leaders.

Update: Engine light for the cyl 8 misfire came on with 102 miles and went off (reset?) at 145 miles on the new engine. Note: Light was off after attending 5 o'clock mass. Proof there is a God? Thanks to all for the advice.

The 5th generation forum was a big help in making my buying decision. Thanks to all the posters over the years.

Thank you very much for the reply. I believe original coils and injectors. It's warrantee work so I will not be touching anything, wish I could, as it is an hour drive e to the dealership. Leaving the vehicle is not a pleasant idea either. I've met the mechanic and service manager, both have...

I had my Ram returned September 28th with a new motor. At 100 miles on the motor the code P0308 popped up. It will be going back to the dealership on Monday but in the mean time I am wondering what are the possible causes. Any help appreciated and thank you in advance.

Yeah, father and father in law's batteries both suffered from that scenario. My take away from my reads a 20 minute highway ride is what is needed for a proper charge. Electrical engineers and mechanics please chime in with your knowledge and experience.

OUCH!

Thanks for the info. There have been previous posts on the anti freeze smell. Glad you resolved the issue.

I wish I could give you some good advice. My motor needed to be replaced under warranty. It took 4 months and nothing was done for over 3. I do believe the dealer I had it at is overwhelmed with work. Not sure if warranty work takes a back seat as it pays the dealership and mechanic less. ...

2011 Honda Fit that still has original TPMS (1 replaced - road damage) but only has 20K on the odometer. https://tiregrades.com/tire-maintenance/pressure/tpms/how-long-do-tpms-sensors-last/

My buddy has a 1990 something chevy truck that he uses for his lawn service and is now installing his 4th engine. I have a 1990 Toyota Celica with 193,000 miles that I keep throwing $$$ at along with a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. I do wonder how the parts market will be 20-30 years from now and the...
