Just curious if any of you may have experienced this. The intercooler pipe on the passenger side that has two 90 degree bends in it and eventually goes to the throttle body on mine likes to "push" the hose off the intercooler. I suspect the clamp is worn or failing, but it never completely pops...

I've got another update for you all on this subject... turns out the WIN module was probably okay, but then again, it's plastic and 9 years old in my case so replacing it wasn't a terrible idea. Tonight after 5 different attempts at DIY kits over the past two years, I landed on something that...

Does anyone know the size of the transmission pan bolts? I'm about to tackle my pan/filter change, and upgraded to an aluminum pan and thought I'd like to throw some new stainless bolts at it to replace the original, and what appears to be quite rusty ones. I found one source that claims...

A few weeks back I had an issue that required me to disconnect the battery several times and reset everything while I did basic troubleshooting and electrical maintenance. Before I had done this, my Ramboxes would lock and unlock with the keyfob. Ever since the repair and battery reconnect, the...

If it's new, I'd imagine a Gen 3? What I'm curious about is, if Stellantis owns VM Motori, and Mopar has done a complete 360 on the electric push from the last administration - if the ole Pasta-diesel makes a comeback... fully deleted and tuned right out of the box. :unsure:

So.... after a few weeks of jiggling the fob, and playing the odds... I finally just went and did a thing... Quick and easy job.

There's a bunch of ideas about a similar situation as yours here : https://www.ram1500diesel.com/threads/alternator-wiring.73924/ From the sound of things, our 4th gens charging is still dictated by the ECU - like a "command" or "Demand" based on other factors. There's a simple diagram in that...

I typically use a needle-bottle with Kroil in it to inject a little here and there on stubborn connectors. I also do the "tighten to loosen" thing while trying to get it out by pushing the connector inward just a hair and trying to work them out (recently did this on every single underhood and...

For once, a happy-ending update. So in my paranoia and constant defcon-1 levels of worry since most dealerships in my area are criminal when it comes to estimates, and how they seemingly ensure my third-party warranty people deny ANY coverage for the 3 years I wasted on that service, I started...

Correction... U1424

So recently in my part of Texas, we've been getting quite a bit of rain - not Kerrville levels, but pretty steady, heavy occasional rain several times a day - a lot of the roads in Houston get high water pretty easily. About 5 days ago or so I was stuck in the right lane because NOBODY wanted...

It's an EPA problem. These things had gasoline engine tech force-fed on them, including the EGR, which eventually clogs up the mains and rods and creates a GIANT lump of useless steel. They discontinued this engine simply because they couldn't Dodge (pun intended) the EPA, which is now...

I'm not convinced its the key - I'm beginning to think it's the switch in the dash the keyfob fits in to. Today I got ZERO display, not even the odometer, but twisting the fob to the start position still works. I'm getting a new set of 2032's for the fob just in case.

I'll take a stab at this. New OEM intake with zero soot in it, remove the swirl valves, leave the module connected to keep the ECU happy turning valveless shafts. Delete tune, full exhaust delete. Insane Diesel Secondary oil filtration system. I also run Howes Meaner-Kleaner several times a...

Let's see if you've ever heard this one. Drove my truck all weekend, no issues, start-up process is the same as it always was in almost 3 years of ownership. This morning I'm heading out to work, unlock the doors, get inside, place phone, place thermos, place lunch, stick the keyfob in the...
