    Oil Question

    My Ram has 6K on it. First oil change at about 4500. So in 1500 miles the oil level is full but the color of it is a dark burnt amber. Is this normal because the Hemi runs hot? I have a 2004 Grand Cherokee with the 6.0 and at every oil change the color is clear, never dirty or defiled...

    Question For Those Who Wash Their Trucks At Home

    I assume most use a car wash, but I still wash my own vehicles. One reason is the clear coat on my 2021 Ram is so smudge sensitive that I don't want it going through a mechanical wash at this time. Anyhow, what methods, tools, and materials have you found that work best for you and make the...

    Unusual Engine Noise

    About 2 weeks ago I started the engine and it made an awful noise for about 15-20 seconds. It's difficult to describe. It sounded like a thin aluminum fan blade hitting against something. Any guesses as to what it might have been. Thanks

    Engine Temps

    I'm in So Cal and had to go to Big Bear up route 38 which is very steep, slow and sharp winding curves. I had a 300# dirt bike in the bed. Had the A/C off. Had it in tow haul. The temp was up to 228 until I hit level with more speed and more air. But I noticed later on a much smaller hill...
