    AGM or Lead Acid Battery

    You don't NEED an H8. That's just the size. There's plenty of H8 batteries with lower specs than high end H7. All else equal, an extra 6% CCA and 20 mins reserve capacity isn't gonna make a difference and unless you're running on your on battery alone frequently

    False forward collision warning in heavy rain

    This has happened to me twice, most recently today. Except mine did engage emergency braking on the road for a split second about 8 times...

    Rain problems with forward collision braking

    Second time I've been caught in a torrential downpour and the FCB keeps flashing and hitting the brakes for a split second every 2 seconds. Completely unsafe in traffic. Is there a way to quickly disable the forward collision braking while driving without fumbling through the UConnect settings...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    This issue has happened to me twice in 20k miles. Both around 5-7 mph while rolling through yield at an intersection merge. Definitely would have been an issue if a car had been coming the other way... https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/false-neutral.18848/

    Good sun visor?

    Covercraft UVS-100. fold up and stash in front of the passenger seat. If someone rides up front stash it under the back seat. Works great.

    Dead Battery Poll

    Yep, as the voltage drops with the dying battery a lot of the systems stop working

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Only put about 100 miles on them so far but I really like them. Quiet, comfortable, smoother steering, don't feel soggy turning. Notable improvements over the Duelers. I was very happy with the Continental ExtremeContacts on my car so I had high expectations of these.

    Leather dash delamination 2019 Laramie longhorn

    Not sure, but definitely worth getting a good sun shield and maybe the window vents to keep the sun and heat out?

    Tire question and recs

    Took the truck in to replace tires at a national tire center. Had about 5/32" left on the stock Duelers other than the edge wear. Had them throw the alignment check on an the toe was still a bit off, which they fixed. The new Continental TerrainContact H/T in stock size and 117H XL are so far a...

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    Now that I think about it, Thursday after the storm I recall hearing an odd sloshing sound from the front passenger side area that I thought was due to the puddles around but sounded different than water hitting the wheel well covers...

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    Pardon my ignorance, but what cowl? You referring to the plastic grid between the hood and windshield? We have lots of oak and cedar around us so it's always a mess I clean out periodically. Here's a few screen captures from using my phone to get a view inside. Looks like water spots below where...

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    AC condensate drain is dripping and I put a bottle brush up it without and issue or junk. How does water in the area in front of the windshield drain? Could it have come in from the external air intake somehow?

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    I didn't feel any moisture in the fan itself so I don't think it was enough to drip through

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    Had a huge rainstorm the last two days and this morning I get in to drive and nothing is coming out the cabin air vents no matter what I set them to and all the manual vent settings were wide open. I could hear the fan running. I popped the glove box and pulled the cabin air filter and it's...

    Tire question and recs

    Yes, those are the stock Dueler H/L Alenza tires. If it were the tires being to soft I would think both fronts would wear like that unless I make a lot more left turns than right turns. I have a new set of Continental TerrainContact H/T XL that just arrived. Debating if I should take it back in...

    Tire question and recs

    Update: so I went ahead and left the tires on for another 5k miles since the OP, upped the cold inflation pressure from 36 to 38, and had an alignment done 4k miles ago. The worst tire in the original post is currently the rear passenger tire and looks to have not changed. The front passenger...

    False Neutral

    Well this just happened for the second time. Was about to turn right at an intersection, slowing down to turn probably nearly at a stop and the truck beeps, says, "shift to park"on the dash, and acted like it was in neutral when the drive selector was on drive. Stopped, shifted to park, shifted...

    Dead Battery Poll

    That is not your battery meter. That's your system voltage. Very different and varies of the truck is running or not
