    Remote Mount Oil Filter

    Well got the kit installed today! Install went good, 3 hours start to finish with changing the oil included. This was done in my garage on ramps not even a lift. Not as much as a drop of oil leaking anywhere. Used loctite 545 on all the fittings, as I only wanted to do this once. Ive started...

    Remote Mount Oil Filter

    I’ve decided im in for the long haul with my ram and sick of the PITA oil changes. Grabbed the pacbrake kit so I can run more oil, bigger filters, and easier changes. Will post after installing.

    Huge difference, no change in ride quality, changes for the better in turn handling.

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    I just followed the steps in the included quick start manual included with the unit. They also have the manual online if you don’t have one. These autels are pretty simple to use, basically plug in your year/make/model and follow the prompts on what you are trying to do. Make sure the unit is...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    Oem sensors will always work even with different IDs because the IDs are within the range of what the ecu will read. The autel can also generate random IDs that oems would use and that works too. From my research I conclude the ecu looks for a specific string of letter and numbers, For example...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    None of the tire shops I went to knew either. I figured it out myself from research, trial and error. This is the autel device I used to read / program / and figure things out. This allowed me to pull the IDs from the ecu that the vehicle was looking for and program those IDs to new sensors. You...

    34's vs 35's

    I used Jscan $20 for license, a $20 bluetooth obd2 adaptor, and a $15 security bypass cable. I can add to the conversation here that after adding bigger tires it is essential to update the ecu with the correct size. I actually programmed mine a few times (can adjust by 0.25” increments in the...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    Just to add to the discussion, from my findings with FCA tpms, even having the correct frequency wont always work. I went thru this on my 2018 jeep. Its the ID number assigned to each tpms that matters. If the ID number is outside of the range programmed into the ecu then the vehicle wont pick...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    Ive used oem sensors and autel sensors with their programmer with 100% success. The only (maybe) way to test would be to put them in the wheel wells and leave the ignition on for like 15 minutes but not sure if that will work. Usually if they work the ram will pick them up within a few minutes...

    Did I make a mistake getting a RAM???

    For the record, in my opinion, U connect 4 is much better than U connect 5. Keeping 4 was part of the reason I bought and kept my 19. Also Go-Ram is spot on about the battery voltage issues. When the oem battery went south in mine at 37k all sorts of weird electrical issues happened. New AGM...

    Did I make a mistake getting a RAM???

    Take the battery terminals off and let it sit over night, then reconnect. That has fixed pretty much any weird electrical issue for me on the RAM.

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    So a little update, I bought a new mopar IAT sensor to try but my rough starts cleared up again. My educated guess here is a bad tank and/or too “hot” of gas. I usually always run 89 octane gas with 10% ethanol but my station was out so I filled up with 90 octane rec fuel (marine/ethanol free)...

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    Just an update, ive been turning on the ignition and letting it sit until the dash lights clear , then starting it and its never rough started doing that. It’s almost like the tune needs a few second delay before cranking.

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    OK well I started it again this morning, but this time I turn the ignition on and let it sit until all the dash lights cleared, then started it, and it started perfect. It seems to do it when you just jump in hit the brake and start it immediately. Going to try this method for another couple...

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    Ive done that too and it does indeed clear up right away. Its like the start is lean on fuel when it does the rough start.

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    Well its been starting perfect up until this morning, it happened again out of the blue, real rough start, didnt sound happy. It runs fine otherwise. Going to try turning the ignition on and letting the dash lights clear before starting it tomorrow morning and see if that helps.

    ROUGH starts on cold starts?

    Just put the battery cables back on and turned the ignition on for a minute then hit the start and it started absolutely perfect. I would try this before taking it to the dealer. All computers need a good power cycle/ reboot now and again.
