I've read of some folks replacing just the hose with a piece of silicone heater hose & proper hose clamps(full circle), parts cost was less than 20 bucks IIRC.
Post #5 has a link to the thread with the manual, it's post#53 in the opened link. I also sent via a file sharing app for large files but it may not go through, it's about 200mb and is a zipped file.
If the manufacturers were held accountable for their follies they would fix stuff & hold their suppliers accountable. It's just not right when you spend that kind of money & then can't use it for it's intended purpose. End users should be able to make necessary changes without effecting their...
I'm wondering how the dickens they can issue a recall and get away with not supplying the parts,, I've been on a supposed waiting list for over a year, meantime I'm running my stage 1 tune waiting for a fix. Makes me wonder what the hell the EPA can do, or does there need to be another class...
Have you done a hand calculation on the mileage? My 17 is SFT stage 1tuned, I can squeeze 29 on a very good day, 22-23 the norm in mixed, and around 25 normally on the hiway, 3.92 gears stock tires & wheels. The mileage I've listed are all hand calculated because the EVIC numbers are always high...
Get ALFAOBD and an MX+ dongle, that's the best setup for the RAM. ALFA is not available for IOS, but there is an android and windows version. I use an unused KINDLE FIRE to run it.
If you want to delete & do a stage 2 then go for SFT as they include both stage 1 and 2 for the price they charge. I ordered the SFT 6 months after I bought the truck, & now I'm waiting for the EGR delete kit & delete pipes.
Welcome! I bought my 17 ECODIESEL December 30 2019, she had just over 14000 miles, I love it! I I did a stage 1 tune from SOFAKINGTUNED with the rally trans tune & it woke it up! Enjoy the new to you ride & stay safe!
Straight pipe after the DPF & SCR would allow a stock tune, but be of little benefit. To splve the problems inherent of smogged diesels you need to tune.
FYI, MOPAR filters are made in China. I order my oil filters from IDPARTS.COM, the brand is UFI, & they are supposedly the same filter that mopar buys, I did check the filter against an OEM & it looked identical & even shared part numbers. I use OEM MOPAR filters because some people have had...
The filter should catch it, I wouldn't use anything other than a MOPAR fuel filter as other brands have been known to swell, botton line, if you've got algae then it's had/has some water in the fuel. someone else may chime in about the algae, even though I've worked on many diesels, I've never...
DEF usage is almost not noticeable on these trucks. Does the truck have a noticeable delay when you you get on the go pedal? if not it may be tuned, kinda sucks not knowing and not having the tuner box unless it was an earlier tune that required the ECM to be sent off. I would HIGHLY recommend...
