    A/C Performance

    I might consider that, But I want to give the dealer/process a chance to work first. Its not fair to say they wont fix it when in fact they haven't said they wont.....officially....

    A/C Performance

    Soooo...I called my dealer today. Talked to a very nice service adviser, one that actually took a few minutes and listened. basically it went like this: "If we cant replicate the issue, FCA wont approve the repair." I was like "its 32 outside, of course its going to blow cold." He was like...

    Oil Change Intervals

    No it wouldnt......You are causing more wear due to the additional dry start ups. You can reduce this by priming the oil filter, but you cant prime the entire system without expensive aftermarket equipment. I used to change oil on V-16 CAT engines and due to their cost, we used high quality oil...

    Welcome to Arizona!!! Oh, but its a dry heat.....:rolleyes: Every week we have some tourist hiking our amazing mountain trails..... then running out of water by 9am. By 11am its either a helicopter ride out or a funeral.... This heat is no joke. Be safe....

    Does the Laramie 20' wheel chrome plastic wheel insert come off??

    no screws. Pretty sure they are glued on..

    Air conditioning performance

    I don't think it matters. Whether the blend door seals well or not, the chamber housing the heater core is still 210 degrees and the heat has to bleed over to the cooling side. Yes this sucks, but in Tucson this week it was 105 and I blew 41 degrees with the shut off valve. Trust me, if there...

    Does the Laramie 20' wheel chrome plastic wheel insert come off??

    My local chrome shop said they could remove the chrome from the plastic inserts then I could paint them. Some places can even do black chrome. I just cant afford to be the test mule and break it.....you would never find a replacement piece....

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    After my second premium fill, it definitely was pinging. Mine has all but disappeared. My truck runs better too. I used to do quire a bit of ECU tuning back in the day (EVO8) and learned that some ECUs had adaptive learning. If our truck have adaptive learning and adjusts the timing map due to...

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    I used Costco premium on my last fill. My tank was less that 1/4. It mostly went away. So, I think its pinging..... What makes me hesitate 100% is I get it way more at a part throttle like when getting on the freeway. When I hammer it getting on the freeway, I don't hear it...But then the...

    Metallic rattle with moderate throttle

    same as yours. Then it goes away. I wonder if we have lots of timing under part throttle, we get ping, the knock sensor/ECU retards timing and it self regulates and goes away....... That's just a guess, but makes sense to me... Since gas prices are tanking, I am going to run my tank down and...

    Does the Laramie 20' wheel chrome plastic wheel insert come off??

    That's why I think they come off. I used a flashlight and magnifying glass and am pretty sure they are glued on. There are no fasteners in the back...If you come across this website again, please let me know. My local chrome shop can re-chrome the plastic black chrome...
