Downside is the cost of a subscription and the fact that SiriusXM Guardian does the same thing and it’s already included from the factory on Limiteds (not sure about other models).
I had the same. Dealer installed it prior to me entering into negotiations with them. I didn’t pay for it, but they also didn’t uninstall. I imagine the dealer gets a cut if you do decide to activate and that makes the installation worth their while. Mine is the Mopar EVTS. I’d love some...
Very clever! I’d suggest adding a manual kill switch in the circuit somewhere so you can disable it seasonally... I bet the AC runs a lot more in the winter than you would expect, and this could affect the system’s ability to heat the cabin.
It’s probably more than similar. I’d wager they didn’t change it at all, at least not in a way you’d notice. So a little YouTube research probably goes a long way here.
I'd add that the whole concept of measuring the outlet temperature doesn't really prove anything, except whether it's in-spec or not. Cooling effectiveness is also about volume of airflow and direction (how well it reaches occupants in the cabin). You could have -15F air coming from the vent...
This. Which is partially why Ram designed the AC temp to blow at the temp folks complain about.
Car manufacturers these days are trying to squeeze any tiny fractional mpg improvement they can out of a new design. If shutting off the heater core improved cooling so much, they would do that and...
Based on what exactly? I notice several who complained did not set the AC at max, for example. The Automatic temp control naturally will adjust to match conditions. And if you have etorque it will blow quite warm when the engine is off. So such incomplete data points shouldn’t be trusted...
Did you walk away from the Ram based on what you read here? Keep in mind that people come here specifically to complain about problems. So basing your purchase decision solely on what you read here is like going to a hospital and concluding that all humans are sick.
