Thanks for the thumbs, you bumped me to guru 😂😁

As a side note, when I bring my truck in next week for them to do the approach lighting STAR and replace my TMU and investigate the quiet crunchy noise in the front end going slowly over bumps, they’re also going to lubricate/or something my mirrors because they squeak on the fold/unfold 😕.

I’m sure it will, but, maybe calling Stelantis, you can get something out of them for the long duration. Money back, or maybe a free year of connected services or something.

So, different than my Ford… on the ford the mirrors folded on lock/unlock. On the Ram they fold on lock/start 🤷🏻‍♂️ It was a handy “did I lock the truck” visual queue. On the Ram, if you go back to get something from the truck, they won’t unfold

Maybe, but this is a 2025 thread

Still with the janky screen??!!

Smash that like button 😉

Yes, but, it’s a balance between being a software company and being a vehicle company. If you haven’t noticed, they really don’t pour resources into the software side all that much. Which is a shame because vehicles are more and more becoming computers on wheels

Uh… there is a setting for that

Which brings us back, full circle to AlfaOBD and our hopes the CAN Bus new architecture can be deciphered and modded😁

Yeah, same with Ford because of the “chip shortage” same $50. But that’s the point. It’s only $50. I guess we’ll see what happens 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nah. It doesn’t turn away customers and they can charge for it. I doubt it’ll go away. There are people who do like it. The ability to say XX miles per gallon is less about EPA and more about wallets. And they’re allowed to fluffy calculate the fuel saving for using it. I think it’s here to stay.

Capitalism. While there isn't a direct law mandating automakers to use stop-start systems, they became widespread due to fuel economy credits granted under federal emissions rules. These credits incentivize automakers to adopt technologies like stop-start that improve fuel efficiency and reduce...

It’s annoying for me for non-light situations, e.g. waiting to make a left out of a parking lot, pulling up to back into a parking space/driveway, etc. It’s not a rough start; in fact, it’s rather smooth. It’s simple the matter that it prevents immediate acceleration. I agree with @RedFred...

I didn’t realize we were talking about A. Hemis and B. eTorques. Yes the eTorque uses the motor/generator to start the engine. I’m not sure which battery it uses but I believe it does use the main battery for starting, the etorque battery only for the torque addition. Lead acid/agm batteries are...

I think the starter and engine can handle it. I think it shortens the main battery life. Starting is hard on a battery

Ditto, all of that. Does anyone else’s N light blink going to or shifting through neutral? Mine blinks twice like.. “I’m getting there, one sec”

Yeah, they can. But it’s only for the current drive. I think the question is to disable it completely

Have you tried deleting and making a new profile? Maybe it’ll stick then?
