I bought my Brake parts (real factory vs imitation), worth the extra in the long run (IMHO) - both sites appear to be selling the factory parts. I also bought previously, a ByPass cable - reusable I also have a good code scanner previously - reusable I also bought a copy of AlphaOBD - a...

I want to add a new category - Harry Home Owner (HHO): Grocery Getter when needed Towing when needed Commuter vehicle when needed Hauling things that are big/bulky/heavy that do not fit in a car Family Hauler Going off the pavement for various reasons Hauling materials for the Honey Do List...

If the original battery, it may be, at the end of its service life, approximately 3-4 years is the average service life of car batteries these days. Also, check the amps, volts are only part of the story. Check the alternator output as well to verify battery is being charged. Once you have...

I hope that the E-Tourque system is phased out, as numerous others have noted, as it adds extra complexity and potential for failure. I have a low-tech Hemi, and it just works. IMHO - plenty of grunt and go fast when needed for ME. It does/has done all that I have asked. I had a heavy-duty...

Thank you for the confirmation on Google Messages. I knew someone out there had already had the solution. To switch to Samsung Messages = losing all the various settings for the various contacts, and that is a time-consuming monster, after having to rebuild the new phone mostly from zero, not...

Technically, yes, it is possible. But. You will need to source the files, as RAM does not provide those files to the general public. A multi-step procedure will guide you in installing the files. You must follow those steps carefully and diligently. It will be easier and potentially faster to...

Thank you for the previous ideas and solutions. I have verified, checked numerous settings in my phone and the truck. What, I am asking to clarify: Has anyone solved this problem, and how was the problem solved? It may be the new version of Android and or the lack of an option for Samsung...

All, I had to purchase a new phone because my old phone was stolen. I bought an S25 Ultra on T-Mobile. It runs UI v. 7, Android v.15 out of the box. All available system updates and apps are up to date. Out of the box - it runs Google Messages - this is the factory Text message system vs...

There are numerous hoses, such as the HVAC system and other smaller hoses. I would also change out the thermostat and the water pump, which reduces failure points in the future. Maybe the oil pump, I'm not sure if it could/would be damaged? Hell, change out the various belts once again, to...

Welcome I hope you have a long and healthy relationship with the new truck. Lots of information here to read and learn from on this site. BlueHemi1500

Perhaps the module is defective? Or short in the wire harness somewhere? I didn't have this problem when I installed my module. Is the brake module an actual RAM part? I paid a bit extra and got what I belive to be real RAM parts, and so far (about 6 months) no known faults. I have no...

Thanks for the info..."buyer beware," seems to be the RAM corporate motto. Sadly, this also seems to be the motto of other large corporations. BlueHemi1500

I did upgrade to the 40.1 when I first got my truck (NUSED). I was getting errors loading the XM system. I spent several hours reading/researching the problem and solutions. I was able to locate the files and the instructions. Once I obtained the files and the instructions, I printed out the...

Based on your problem statement, you need a whole new visor assembly or one used from a truck of a similar color. The Amazon part I purchased, and most others the bracket that holds the pivot in place fails, not the actual pivot/arm failure. A donor part should not be hard to remove. Be aware...

The only way a user/owner can update the software is via a USB drive. There are several steps you must follow exactly. Ensure you get the instructions along with the files to update. BlueHemi1500

Some of the models you noted do not come with a beach seat option, so be aware. Personally, I would not buy a truck without a true 4x4 system. I find my truck very comfortable to drive/ride around in, and I need to use the true 4x4 system due to weather events. As noted above, drive 4x2 and 4x4...

Oil - I think with a filter change, it is 7.5 qts. fill with 7.o qts, then go somewhere it is level and wait about 10 mins to let oil settle, then check oil level. 5W20 full synthetic is what is noted. Fuel - use ("Top Tier") 87 - works for me little to no knock ( I have hearing loss, so I may...

My W.A.G. - old battery has reached end of life. Try the cheaper route of a new battery and see what happens. I just, last month, I replaced my battery as it just barely started the truck; it gave me a warning sign. Batteries these days sometimes they just drop dead. At 5 years, you got your...

Is there an obvious odor to that smoke? That could be an important clue to those who could provide an informed opinion/idea(s) Oil level - any obvious change (less than expected)? If there is not an obvious odor, my W.A.G. - condensation? BlueHemi1500

I have read numerous posts that talk about the PPE aftermarket pan. I think they have 2 versions the std pan and a deeper pan. What is your thought process on that prospect? I will shortly be reaching 60k on my truck so it will be time to do the maintenance on the trans/trans/diffs on the...
