    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    I got the same thing, a pop up screen giving me the option to install the update. I'm not sure what it did, but it did turn my surround sound off, which I had to go back into audio settings and turn it on again. I don't have HUD., so didn't notice anything there.

    2025 Larimie, What am I looking at?

    The smaller little battery has to do with the auto stop start feature on the truck. My understanding is the main battery is used for starting but the smaller one helps maintain consistent voltage to the rest of the truck so that you don't notice a draw on the electrical during the starting...

    I didn't mention what oil I used because I didn't want to start an oil discussion. But I will say that I am not a fan of 0w20 either.

    2025 Ram Big Horn Misfire code (P0300).

    Keep us posted. This sounds worrisome.

    Codes found on new 2025 1500 Rebel

    Shell is considered top tier gas so nothing wrong with Shell either. Shell is the closest gas station to my house, so I almost always fill up there.

    I need to go back and correct my post. My new 2025 Ram has the 3.55 rear which is standard. The 3.21 I mentioned was on my old Ram with the hemi.

    -As far as MPG, on my 4x4 Laramie with 3.55 rear, I have averaged 20 mpg for a tank full a couple of times. This is mixed driving and hand calculated math. -As far as noises coming from the car after it is shut down, I too have noticed that at times it seems to be making noises long after shut...

    Power Multifunction Tailgate

    This video fails to mention the button on the left side of the tailgate that you can press to close it. I wish someone would have mentioned the button to me since I didn't realize it was there.

    As of now, no. I added 7.4 quarts of oil. I reset the the oil life, but I did not check or reset the oil level. I know it does it on its own eventually, so I am just gonna wait for it to check the level on it's own. I did take it on a few short drives today, but no over fill indicator as of now.

    Did my first oil change on my 2025. I usually try to do my own oil changes, but with my old hemi it was always a disaster with the location of the oil filter and I would just end up taking it somewhere to get done. With the hurricane motor, oil changes could not be any simpler. Oil filter is...

    Getting ready to do first oil change soon. Anyone know what oil filter do I need for the hurricane motor?

    Even though I don't like the stumble, I do believe that it is a characteristic of the truck. It seems to happen at the same exact time on every cold start, so I the computer is making a change or something is starting up to cause the motor to make a change. I'm starting to believe that it...

    There should be a sticker in the driver door jam that will include month and year manufactured.

    Without going out to look at the odometer, I believe I am right around 3800 miles.

    I notice on cold starts my truck has the stumble at some point. I could probably time it and it would happen at the same exact time every time. Only lasts a quick second, but if I am in the truck, not only can I hear it stumble but also feel it with a shudder.

    I just came back from the dealership. They checked the code and performed some update, but they said it wasn't for a misfire. Instead it was something related to the evap system. They said I should be good now. I asked about the update available for the misfire CEL, they said they know about...

    I think you are right about the 91. It's just that 91 or even 93 availability is sometimes dependent on where you live.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    If I have to always use premium fuel, it kind of offsets any of the improved fuel economy the new truck has over my old hemi. I never put 87 in the new truck. The first fill up was 93 octane after I left the dealership and then I have been using 89 since. Hopefully the update addresses the...

    To be honest, I wasn't even sure what fuel octane it asked for. I thought it recommended 89 but was still ok with 87. I guess I'm just carrying over the hemi fuel recommendations. In my area, the choices are 87, 89, or 93 at the Shell I always use.
