    Speed adjustment for larger tires

    They don't know is likley the issue. My 33's were purchased from and installed by my dealer. They were supposed to recalibrate but said my tire size doesn't come up as a selection in whatever system they use.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    It rained BECAUSE you washed your truck. Works every time.

    4WD auto?

    I live in Wisconsin where we have every kind of weather but hurricanes and tsunamis. I use auto 4wd in ice, slush, and snow. Almost never in just rain. IMHO it's likely not needed in SoCal. Good rubber on your wheels will be more than sufficient in rain. That said, if the truck has the...

    Anyone have ambient dimmer switch issues?

    Same for me. Had it looked at last week when my truck was at the dealer for other things. SA told me tech says everything checks out. The tech wasnt there at the time but if i want to come back when he is, he'd be happy to show me how to operate it. Also, the gauge dimmer - it does nothing when...

    Post Pictures and experiences if you have 295x60r20OR 285x60r20

    I have no idea why the site sensored the word "reverse"!

    Post Pictures and experiences if you have 295x60r20OR 285x60r20

    Description in my signature. I notice a rub one time, in reverse, full ****, when i went over a bump. Otherwise no rubbing whatsoever. Haven't recalibrated speedo yet. Not sure that i will. Mpg usually reads around 15.8 on the dash. Havent checked real life mpg with my own math. It just is what...

    Exhaust Manifold Cracked

    Follow up report. My dealer diagnosed that both manifolds needed replacing due to warping, likely caused by broken bolts. Parts ordered tuesday, picked up the truck today (friday). The service advisor told me they do 4 or 5 of these a month. This is in a city of 50,000 with other ram dealers in...

    Is this normal?

    You likely have the uconnect guardian? I received these on my 2019 jeep grand cherokee, which had a number of months of guardain free. Dont have guardian with my Ram, and dont get these reports. I still get them on the jeep that was replaced by my Ram almost a year ago. Guess i can see how the...

    So what’s this noise?

    Sounds very much like my truck, which is at the dealer now awaiting arrival of new manifolds, both sides.

    Exhaust Manifold Cracked

    On further thought you're probably right that it's covered under the original powertrain warranty. On the warranty topic, i understood the Certified additional warranty to be 3 months/3,000 miles. Dealer service rep tells me his computer shows i have MVP warranty to 100k miles until sometime in...

    Exhaust Manifold Cracked

    I took my truck in today for a scheduled appointment because of this same sound deacribed, suspecting the manifolds due to this forum. First they reported just the passenger side and changed it to replacing both manifolds. Supposed to have parts Thursday (2 days). We will see. Told it will be...

    Which would you rather have? Advanced Safety Group or Multifunction Tailgate and Rambox

    I drove my wife's Kia Telluride with adaptive cruise control a while back on a 4 lane highway. I found it more an annoyance than helpful. Couple of times if i wasnt paying attention the car had slowed to match the speed of the car in front of me so now I'm down to 10 under the speed limit. With...

    Which would you rather have? Advanced Safety Group or Multifunction Tailgate and Rambox

    For me...ramboxes wouldnt make sense. As said above, unless you have a specific use for them that outweighs the reduction in bed capacity and payload. I also dont like the looks of them. Haven't seen MFT but I've lived without it on my truck for 30 years so I'm good without it. Lane assist and...

    Really considering trade in for 2022

    We all have different preferences and priorities, but even in wisconsin i am loving the ventilated seats. Mine are on every day in the summer. Doesnt bother me in the least if the surface isnt real leather. Its ventilated! I am just generally a warm blooded person and get uncomfortably hot and...
