Does anyone run their valve at half closed or 3/4 closed? Doesn't some heat help with moisture management? Do you still get AC improvement with half or 3/4 closed?

Which is the better tow vehicle? A Toyota Tundra with brawny 4.30 rear end, or a Ram 1500 with puny 3.21? Yep it's Toyota of course. Wait what? The 3.21 actually provides equal or greater pulling power in all gears? WTF!?!? The ZF 8 speed is a game changer.

The new refrigerant is not the problem. If it were, when folks do the AC Hack they would still have poor AC. Instead, they get amazingly cold AC (40's) after the Hack. There is a design flaw/defect that is letting blend heat into the system when it shouldn't be.

Feel free to do a fluid film (which you have to reapply). Personally I wash the underside really well 2x year and hit any troublespots with Rustoleom Rust Inhibitor. Here is an example of why not to do rubberized undercoating.

Thank you for the comments. So trust the dipstick in this case? That would mean draining a bit out as being a quarter inch high seems like it might be a bit much.

For the second oil change now, I've got a dipstick that appears to be reading high. After draining the oil and filling with exactly 7 quarts (1 5 quart jug and 2 single quart bottles), my dipstick reads 1/4 inch over the max (and this is after letting the truck sit for a day and settle). Either...

Beast Moding that trail. Great vid keep them coming.

Keep us posted. I have your recommended parts on order to address. I just tried to duplicate/pinpoint my leak using a tea kettle full of water, which worked last time pouring it all over the brake light and rear window. However, I cannot duplicate this one. Not sure what's going on here...

The rear window leak it seems does not hit the headliner. Water comes in from the top of the plastic/glass. Headliner wet would indicate brake light leak.

Had my rear window replaced in December 2019, 2 cracks, one leaking. My theory was the install at the factory on some units was not handled properly. The glass specialists that installed did a great job - I watched the whole process. Sorry to say 5 months later it's leaking again in the same...

How many idle hours you got? Compared to total hours? What's considered high idle hours? There are some reports of the 5.7 used in police chargers racking up massive amounts of idle hours. Some reports of problems but also some trouble free. From what I've read, when idling, sometimes the...

Yes, 8.4 Uconnect, 1500 2019 New Model. Temps about 8-10 degrees warmer out of driver side

Is it obvious, that if the expansion valve is the faulty part, that it would affect only the driver's side (or affect the drivers side significantly more?)

Are you able to take phone pic or scan of the work order and post? Would be helpful to show our dealers what has been successful for others. Do you recall, was your AC performance generally bad vs. poor performance only on the dirver's side?

Thanks for this info! What that tells me, is that the issue is likely NOT a dual climate blend door, as your standard climate truck shouldn't have dual climate zone doors. It's a leak then from the heater core getting into the drivers side only somehow, likely not door dual climate blend door...

I'm pretty happy with 45 degrees out of the passenger side. If it weren't for the blend door/heater core leak, I would have a satisfactory AC. Whats puzzling however is there are reports of folks WITHOUT the dual zone climate with poor AC. Now most of them are measuring out of just the driver's...

Warm day today so I ran the AC for a 20 minute drive. Ambient Temp outside, 72F, Sunny Settings: AC, Recirc On, Lowest/Coldest Setting. Fan speed 6 out of 7 Driver Temp 53F, Passenger Temp 45F. Looks like I definitely have a blend door issue on the drivers side.

Thanks!

Great photos. Do you know of any spots along Eastern PA? Central is a bit further out for me. I'm in Bucks County
