    100% DPF, no regen...?

    Using Torque Pro to monitor DPF soot %, typically runs between 35-45%, mostly freeway driving. Couple weeks ago DPF% pegged at 100 but truck ran normally and SCR temp remained in normal, no active regen, ranges. Monday, took it out for a 100mi freeway trip. Pic1 shows Torque Pro readings...

    305/45/22 Michelin Defender LTX 2 - some photos and my review

    After sliding around on the roads during last years pretty wet winter for San Diego, I dumped the Wranglers for the stock size LTX MS2s. Ran the MS2s on my previous Tundra and was very happy with them. Had 45K on the MS2s when I sold the Tundra and they had a lot of tread remaining. For the...

    Stellantis recalls 1.5M Ram trucks to fix software bug that can disable stability control

    Can you elaborate on "failed"? Symptoms/messages? Not starting, not shifting, seems odd these would be related to the ABS software recall...

    Horrible First Impressions - Huge Fail

    OP, can you elaborate on "delivered". You mentioned "a dealer" so I'm assuming that dealer wasn't involved in the purchase? Internet purchase? Factory order? What inspection procedure was used? Given the issues you identified, your frustration is understandable. Having said that, one...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Many SOCAL dealers treat MSRP like a bargain. Obviously because there are enough stupid people in the Peoples Republik who will pay MSRP...same folks that voted yes to increase the already high gas tax 😠

    Torque Pro Questions

    Somewhat late to the Torque Pro party. Some screenshots below taken last night on a 60mi freeway trip, 70mph avg. All displays appear to be responsive except for DPF avg distance, box left/below DPF%. That value didn't change. Here's the OBD pid I'm using for that: Avg regen dist","AVG...

    New Guy From NJ That Ordered a '25 Rebel

    There were several options I really wanted in a Rebel, along with the red/black combo. Not many with these options and when I found one here in SOCAL, dealers generally behaved like MSRP was a bargain. After some research in this forum, contacted 2 internet discount dealers, Mark Dodge in...

    Oil and filters?

    Long time Wix fan, have used them with both 440 mopars for years. For the EcoD I stick with the OEM filters and Pennz 5W-40 MS12991 Euro. If I still have the Rebel when my extended warranty expires, I'll switch to Wix.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    We are somewhat rural, at least by socal standards. Had a vehicle (69 Charger) shipped from Oregon a few years back. Found a carrier (uship.com) that would meet us at a dealership, in large city, where he was picking up another vehicle. For the convenience, he gave us a $200 discount off the...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    That may be the understatement of the year. When I was shopping socal for a Rebel factory order, most acted like MSRP-$1000 was a great deal. Many wouldn't budge from MSRP. When I showed them the internet quote (not from Mark Dodge but at the time a similar internet discount dealer in Auburn...

    Out of warranty.. what now? Lol

    Each to his/her own. I'm in the never had an extended warranty, but got one this time category. As a retired EE and having restored several older mopars, know my way around vehicles. However, the complexity of the electronics in current vehicles is beyond what most DIYers, well at least this...

    New Rebel owner here with the ED

    My Rebel EcoD gets about 25mpg combined, about 28mpg freeway. 2" level Bilstein lift, otherwise stock. Fairly close to your numbers.

    Service interval after fuel pump recall

    Had HPFP recall done couple weeks ago. Asked service mgr specifically about fuel filter interval. He said every other oil change is fine, 20k by the book. No paperwork from dealer to contrary. In my case I change oil/filter at 5K intervals, so fuel filter would be at 10K intervals for me...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Definitely. The Rubicon drove fine, nimble, with decent acceleration. I'm about a mile from the dealer, noticed the illuminated parking brake light. Conditioned by the Rebel, I'm looking all over the dash. Where is the damn release? Pull over, look around the dash again. Yea, I'm an...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    Update. Ready Wed afternoon. Couldn't pick up until Thurs, battling latest covid version. Service guy said they've only had a couple where entire fuel system needed to be replaced. Asked him specifically about fuel filter maintenance interval. He said do it every other oil change as before...

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    My 2021 Rebel went in today for the recall HPFP appointment. Color me a bit nervous as the truck has been perfect for 3yrs. They said should be ready tomorrow and gave me a loaner, 1yr old Wrangler.

    Recall of High Pressure Fuel Pump

    I change my oil/oil filter at 5K intervals, with new fuel filter every other oil change, nominally 10K. Would this maintenance schedule satisfy the new requirement?

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yea, been around long enough to have both blackwall and white letters myself. Don't much like the huge white letters, but the MICHELIN size is about right for me. Similar to the huge black RAM on the red tailgate, had to do something to "blend" it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Week before last, did a tire change from the OE Goodyear Wranglers to Michelin Defender LTX M/S2. Same size LT275-70R18, E load. The Wranglers were terrible in wet conditions. Have a couple 20-25deg incline hills up to my home, asphalt road. If those inclines were wet, the wranglers would...
