    HID vs LED

    Have to disagree with " - HID is the brightest but don't have a long life span" Had HIDs on my 2006 Ford F350, & my Avalon, Have them on my Ram 2016 1500 and my 2005 Jeep rock crawler, have never had to replace an HID. Same story with my son's several trucks, Excursion and jeeps. Have had...

    Truck at dealer for over 70 days

    If you like the truck, take the deal and keep it. If you don't like the truck hire a lawyer for the buyback.

    Howdy? Has anyone received compensation from FCA due to the emissions issue?

    I also had to resend the final paperwork several times because their system would not accept all the pages in one email. I tried several times. Ended up having to send just two pages at a time. However, throughout all this they were sending me the failure reports and I was able to communicate...

    My adventure with SofaKingTuned

    Yeah, you don't want to change the square body, it's a classic. It's looking good - nice work.

    My adventure with SofaKingTuned

    Get 'em to cut 4-6" out of that top and you'll have a head-turning truck. Had 'em back in the late 40s and early 50s - chopped and channeled was the thing. 😁

    BlueDriver settings

    You'll find it's very easy. Once you get the screen you want to use just double tap any PID. That will bring up a menu of PIDs by type. Just select the one you want and it will replace the one you tapped. The PIDs IMO are not indexed well, you just have to keep searching around the menu to...

    You have to search, select and install the screens that you want to use, up to three. You have to search, select and install the PIDs you want to use and where on your screen you want them to appear. If you want any warnings or alerts you have to select and install for each PID. The only PIDs...

    Banks derringer +1.8

    My dealer is great, knows I have a tune, agreed to it and supports it. However, I don't think he would ever do it for me, especially a delete. Think of the warranty liabilities - engine takes a crap, Chrysler won't warranty because it's tune/deleted, customer files suit that dealer made the...

    Howdy? Has anyone received compensation from FCA due to the emissions issue?

    I was approved last year but waited for the rumored new AEM flash. Got the new AEM flash last May and the check came shortly thereafter. One poster keeps saying the truck is "crap" after the AEM flash. My truck was fine after the AEM flash, maybe better than the original. Don't know the mpg...

    Crankshaft positioning sensor and Tone Ring Failure on Eco diesel.

    Another "score" for TC! What's interesting to me is all we tuned guys will reload the stock tune, get the update, return to the tune and the update is gone. The update does nothing for us - another penalty for being tuned. Someone has said if the failure happens to a tuned truck to merely...

    Switching from (Old ecu swapped)GDE Hot tune to new SFT stage 2 flash tuner

    2014-2018 Ram 1500’s and Jeep Grand Cherokee’s 3.0L V6 EcoDiesel engines all use the same ECU and can be converted from one to the other. The part number is 05150767AC. You have to take the ECU and truck to a dealer to have the ECU flashed to your Vin number. There are posts in other forums...

    Truck at dealer for over 70 days

    rogedmonds, You certainly have something to be concerned about. From what I've read over the various forums it seems that Ecodiesels been dependable after the current recall, mine for sure is. The first AEM recall flash was not good and it was corrected in early January. The dealer should...
