    Service 4wd System

    Remote started my truck the other day, got in and 4wd will no longer work. VIC says “Service 4wd System” and I am unable to select anything other than 2wd, zero response from all other buttons. Scanned the codes and came up with C140A-12 “transfer case motor control-circuit shorted to battery”...

    Block heater relocate

    In preparation for my move to northern Ontario I relocated the block heater cord using a noco dual port plug. No longer have to open the hood each time I hook up the insanely short block heater cord, and there’s a second plug for an onboard charger. Install location should work on all 5th gens...

    Cabin filter filled with snow

    Has anyone had their cabin filter pack full of snow? Went through 2 Canadian winters with my 2020 and never had an issue, first snowstorm with my 2022 and I lost all air through my vents while driving causing my windshield to freeze up on the inside. Not very safe in -40 windchills and 50mph...

    Questions for any owners from Alaska or other cold areas

    I am in the process of moving full time to my house in northern Ontario where up until recently I’ve only spent the warmer seasons and I’m trying to make sure I am prepared for the winters to come. My questions are in regards to the engine block heater, battery maintainer and oil pan heaters...

    Differences between 2020 and 2022 ram rebel ecodiesel

    Just got my 2022 ram rebel and have noticed a few differences/refinements between the two, and I’m wondering if I missed any. First was that it now come with the forward collision warning? The truck was built as close to the old one so I must be a standard option now. Second was the the...

    Auxito led bulb upgrade review

    I recently got the opportunity to try out a couple of Auxito led bulbs for my 2020 ram rebel, but ended up getting my 2022 rebel way sooner than expected. (Less than 5 weeks from order to on the lot) So this post is long overdue. Anyways, the install is identical to the prior years 2019-2021...

    Drivers side front floor water leak

    I know this issue has been brought up before, but at just over two years into owning my truck I noticed I have a water leak in the front drivers side of my truck. I’ve never had issues with wet carpet, and have checked it many times over the last two years. Just the other day I was cleaning my...

    Banks ram air intake is in the works!

    Just noticed this in a google search for cold air intakes. Not sure if it’s already been posted. https://official.bankspower.com/insider_news/2019-22-ram-1500-3-0l-ecodiesel-ram-air-intake/ I know our current intakes draw from the grille area, but banks makes some good stuff so we’ll see if...

    DEF gauge problems

    I know there was a thread before regarding the def gauge not working correctly and up until this week I’ve had zero issues with mine. For some reason I decided to wait until I got the “refill def or truck won’t start message” this time to fill my def and I’m kind of regretting it. I got the...

    Oil leakage/seepage

    I had my dealer perform my last few oil changes and had always trusted that they’d let me know if there was a leak or something wrong under my truck while it’s in the shop but I guess I shouldn’t have had so much faith. I just got done doing my oil change myself and noticed a few unsettling...

    Tune button/dial fell off today.

    Coming back down the logging roads today the tune knob and button just popped right out of my 12” screen. It’s already in line to be replaced for freezing up randomly so it’s no big deal to me, hopefully the new one doesn’t do the same. The button/dial pushed back in but is hard to turn now.

    Oil analysis report.

    I just received the report from an oil sample I sent in a couple of weeks ago. The comment regarding potassium is interesting as I did require some coolant to top of the reservoir on my last oil change. Hopefully it’s just a coincidence tho.

    Headliner rattle/removal

    I’ve been trying to track down a horrible rattle for the last few weeks and narrowed it down to something above the headliner in the rear of the cab. I should probably have the dealer check it out, but for something so simple I will probably just drop the headliner myself and install sound...

    DEF fluid expiration date

    Has anyone seen an expiration date in this format before? If it’s the same as other brands it looks like this was made on December 17 2019? This is on sale at TSC (aka peavey mart) in Canada for $9.99 which is a really good deal, they had a full pallet of it at my local store all with the same...

    Paint issues on drivers door lock cover

    Noticed this after getting back from a 3500km trip. Didn’t have anything hit the truck other than some heavy rain and wind. Back to the dealer I go.
