    Creaking noise in steering column 2019 Ram Limited 23k miles

    If not the clock spring, and I am sure this may be different from 4th gens - but the fourth gens I believe have a TSB or recall for steering ujoint at end of steering shaft. I know two people that had them replaced.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Golf R only lost $3k in value after 30k miles and 2.5 years. Have to find those special vehicles to keep!

    New 2020 Ram Engine or exhaust ping/noise

    The point is the manufacturer would not recommend it if their safety features (knock sensors) could not compensate to pull timing. The dodge viper does not say it can use 87 octane yet the ram does. The point is different engines have different tolerances as you stated. Furthermore the point is...

    New 2020 Ram Engine or exhaust ping/noise

    No manufacturer will state "you can 'use' 87 but will experience detonation." They say you can use it, so to experience ping while using it there is a different issue afoot. I do not think spending an extra 20-30 cents per gallon (say a 10% increase in cost per gallon) is acceptable as that is...

    New 2020 Ram Engine or exhaust ping/noise

    I brought mine into a dealer and complained of engine noise, dealer stated it was just fuel injectors. I have since amassed a heat shield rattle, poor (sub 13mpg) fuel mileage, and an increase in engine bay noise. I suggest bringing it to a dealer, express all concerns, let them investigate and...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Is there a code that gets thrown if you put oversized tires on without calibrating?

    Air Suspension and Lowering the Rear?

    Lift the front (spacers and links) and ride around in aero. Lowering the rear that much will make it feel like you just had a fist used on you for a prostate exam. Which is fine if thats what you are into.

    Heated steering wheel upgrade

    I agree it almost gets too hot. I just alter my grip. It is great when I am outside freezing and get in and “grasp it FIRMLY.”

    Anyone hearing “pinging” on WOT?

    Would like it if a ram engineer got on board. My deduction is that as much as this is an old motor and design, the on board diagnostics with knock/detonation sensors would retard timing and this "pinging" would be near non existent. Its no 1971 ford LTD. Ram would state 89 or better if it was a...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Having a hard time deciding

    It seems people who make these comments about air ride not being good had older vehicles with air suspension or are going off someone elses post about 'this one time at band camp' a failure happened. My air ride has had no problems. 100k bumper to bumper makes me feel even less concerned...

    Having a hard time deciding

    If the power running boards scare you might as well buy a mistubishi mirage for 14k. I originally wanted a bighorn with 12" screen and pano roof.... i ended up with a limited. Do it once do it right.

    Revel Performance lift links for air ride suspension

    Curious if anyone has had an air suspension system failure which an individual has stated was due to the lift/spacers and or installation.
