I used these same pieces. They work fine. In addition, you will need an Android tablet (or phone) or a Windows laptop. Go to https://www.alfaobd.com/ Download and install the app. (You will need Paypal or a credit card.) Set it up on your tablet or computer, using the Bluetooth. The BAFX3127...

It is my understanding that no "i" device will work. Just Windows and Android. I am using an ancient Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. You should be able to find a used Galaxy Tab, or Galaxy Note something-or-other for cheap, especially if it doesn't have cellular capability. I believe that Samsung...

I have found that when my radio is hot (as in "summer... sitting in the sun") and I stop and restart the truck several times in a row, that the radio (8.4. No NAV) will go black, and go off into never-neverland. It has never NOT recovered in a few minutes, however. It's only done it a couple of...

~7300 miles. Getting 13-15 MPG with 3.92s. 4x4 Big Horn. Hemi. No eTorque. I'm not sure if my MPG is getting worse, or if I'm just driving it harder than I was when it was new. The most recent (and worst) tank had some idling and some 4WD HI operation, too. I know that will kill MPG.

Has anyone here experimented with resetting their PCM to "factory default"? - aka resetting "adaptives"? When I had my Challenger R/T, back in '09-'12, lots of the people on ChallengerTalk (Can I say that here?) were talking about doing this. "Resetting adaptives". It basically involved pulling...

There are several videos out on YouTube that sort of "chronicle" the problem. But then, YouTube is kind of like Forums (including this one). All you hear about are the broken ones, and the "problem children". You never hear about the vast majority of stuff that hums happily along, because there...

Yes! This! I really... really like how intuitive this truck is with downshifts and engine braking, when I'm driving in traffic. Strangely enough, I have a Pontiac G6 GT with the 4 speed (more primitive) automatic, that has similar programming when you pull it down into "3", out of overdrive...

I have a sliding rear window, and a rear defroster.

Got mine several weeks ago. I was a bit skeptical.

I already had the AlfaOBD app and peripherals, in order to activate my trailer brake controller. Decided that, since it was essentially "free" to activate the security system, well... why not? I don't care about glass break sensors, since they aren't going to prevent anyone from breaking a...

Another update: Finally got my intrusion alarm to work. It actually worked the first time I tried, but I didn't realize there was a separate "switch" for the LED indicator, so I backed it out. I don't really care about glass break monitoring anyway. Most anyone who breaks in is going to open...

I installed my liners a few weeks ago, while I had the wheels off to replace the springs. I removed the original front pieces completely and "split" the rear pieces. Seemed like that was the only way the replacements would fit correctly. I think I paid ~$150 for mine, shipped. Thought I bought...

Good info. I was about to ask the identical question. Thanks!

Finally got my refund, on Tuesday. I have to believe that they actually refunded "ahead of" the dispute. Regardless... It's a hell of a way to do business. Hah! That's a heck of an idea! (Don't feel bad. I misread a FB meme yesterday, about "new boots", and thought it said "new boobs".)

I'm interested in this too. Curious if we need the "anti-flicker" modules, as well. (I have AlfaOBD, so I may be able to change my settings. Just wondering if it's worth the trouble, for the long term, to do that instead of using the modules.)

One of the vids on YouTube had an earlier truck's radio splash screen changed to "SRT". I see that it's apparently available in the programmer. :D

Yeah... Took me the better part of an afternoon to do mine, including the installation of the wheel well liners. But I wasn't in a huge hurry, either. Took the time to consume a couple of adult beverages as I was winding it down. Was still easier than replacing the springs on my Trailblazer.

I have never heard anything good about using wheel spacers, other than cosmetics. They add another potential failure point. OTOH, I've never heard of one breaking. They WILL add unsprung weight, and can place additional load (through leverage) on your front wheel bearings. Since the rear is a...

Thanks. I just submitted my dispute a couple of hours ago. Wondering what else I can do. I'm in the mood to raise a little hell. :D

So... how long did it take to get your refund credited to your card? They told me 15 business days. Still haven't seen it. I just emailed them and told them that I would be disputing the charge, tomorrow. I'm almost sorry I bought this G-D truck.
