    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    The curiosity side of me decided to look into this more. I am going to send oil samples from my last oil change that I kept and oil from when I just changed from the Amsoil EA15k50 filter to the Wix filter sent to me as a replacement. I am also going to do my own testing for solids in the...

    Considering canceling order for new Laramie

    I think this has already been said, but people that don't have problems, typically don't go to forums much, it's more likely when they have issues to find out if others have had or how to fix. I have 20k miles, and haven't had any issues. So as others have said, don't worry about it. If you...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    It's ok to have different opinions, otherwise life would be boring. But realize that each story has 2 sides, and the other side may not be well represented or understood. The one thing I won't do here is say that one party is absolutely right and the other one wrong. So to be fair, (even...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    I always thought Amsoil prices were to high also. But when you sign up for an account, it's ~25% lower than their retail prices. The XL is better than the OE, but not as good (or pricey) as the Signature series. I use a lot of oil for several cars and motorcycles I have, it's worth the yearly...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    I would think a newer vehicle, especially one that gets many highway miles, wouldn't generate a lot of debris. I don't plan on going to extended mileage oil change, I'll stick with the Ram recommendations, 10k or 1 year changes for normal driving. That's why I use the XL instead of the...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    Here's a follow up on the P1524 code. The day I took truck to Ram dealer, the code cleared by itself on the way there. They saw the stored code and did some more diagnostics, including test drive and couldn't find anything and code didn't come back. so they gave it back and said to call them...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    Maybe you didn't see my second post, Amsoil is sending me a new Wix filter. This is on my second oil, 1st using Amsoil, oil and filter. The first one I used Castrol Edge Extended with Mobil 1 filter, with no issues. My concern is I only have ~3300 miles on this oil and filter on Amsoil...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    I just got off the phone with tech support from Amsoil. They are sending me a new Wix filter and 2 quarts of the XL 5W-20 oil I use for free, to replace my Amsoil filter and lost oil during replacement. I had some discussions with the tech, the problem seems to be with some, but not all Rams...

    Malfunction Indicator Light (MIS) Error code P1524

    I just got the P1524 code less than a week ago with about 20K miles on it. I'm using Amsoil XL 5W-20 oil with the EA15k50 filter. When I first got the code while driving home from work, ~ 1/2 hour or so on the highway running 70-80 mph, I checked my oil pressure, it seemed ok, in the 40 psi...

    Floor Mat Recall

    I posted the same problem , see post 19 & 20: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/floor-mat-recall.26556/post-374577. I just picked up the mats a few hours ago, gave them the old one and vehicle mileage, and got the new updated one. To recap, I called service, and they told me they...

    Floor Mat Recall

    Update: I was a little PO'd that the service department at the dealer I bought the truck and mats from were telling me they couldn't order the floor mats because the recall wasn't listed for my VIN number. I told them I ordered the mats separately as part of the sale of the truck, and...

    Floor Mat Recall

    Kaitlin, I sent you a personal message. I thought I'd mention my problem here also. My 2019 Ram 1500 didn't come with the All-weather mats (wasn't on the window sticker), so I ordered them separately. I got a recall notice in the mail and proceeded to call my local dealer (in Chicago...

    Anyone wish they had NOT ordered Ramboxes?

    I guess it depends on the type of tools you use and what you need easy access to. I personally keep parts in one side and small tool bags with hand tools I use allot and need quick access in the other. I use storage bins for larger tools in the back as they also protect tools from any water...

    How to Get the Best Price on Your New Ram

    I was told about this in Aug 2019 when I bought my truck. I don't remember all of the details, but I sent in and never got any response back, so it isn't guaranteed you'll get the money. I traded in my 2011 Chevy Silverado for my new Ram, should of qualified.

    How to Get the Best Price on Your New Ram

    Below is part of a post I made on a different thread. I had never bought online before, but I learned a lot from working with a Internet sales person, who was the salesman of the month for a couple of years in a row at his dealership. The floor sales guys said there was no way to compete with...

    "Build It" tool info

    I used the build it tool to get a price for my vehicle, but since I didn't order it from factory, it wasn't exactly the same. If you order it, it should come with all of your options. Finding the exact vehicle off of a lot is highly unlikely. You have to decide what options are critical and...

    People with gas mileage issues

    I get average fuel mileage (which I consider decent) of about 18mpg mixed driving, and 20-22 on highway on longer trips. Pulling trailer, this thing sucks down the fuel fast, depending on conditions and grade. I was reading the last few pages (not the whole thread) and was glad to see that...

    Ride Quality

    My 2019 ram with coil springs is a far better ride than my 2011 leaf spring Silverado. I didn't want the air ride because of extra weight, cost and complexity, so I can't comment on how that compares to the standard Ram coil suspension. But I would like to also comment, that I have 20 inch...

    Anyone wish they had NOT ordered Ramboxes?

    I guess I very seldom have to climb in the bed. I bought the 3 tier hard cover to keep my tools in so they're not visible and have some amount of security. My tools are in heavy duty covered bins so I don't have to worry about them getting wet as the top is not 100% waterproof. I rigged up a...
