Welcome, keep us posted and hope the fix is simple and permanent!

I kinda don't understand, it sounds like your engine was toasted anyway. It doesn't sound like you would have gotten far from the dealer whether you had magnets or not?

Good looking rig, what mods did you change?

How is that Tundra working out?

There is really no definitive answer that I have read.... possible causes are everything from too much soot in the oil. plugged oil passages, poor quality control at the factory, harmonic oscillation of the crank, too small of bearings, and wrong viscosity of oil. To my knowledge none of those...

short answer is no. the tone ring has nothing to do with fuel. There was a software flash that allowed your vehicle to run with a tone ring failure (W58 I believe) but you still need to get it repaired.

That is some good troubleshooting Moose, nice job!

How many miles? That actually doesn't look to bad compared to some we have seen on the forums.

"it always seems like some guy think he is the smartest and everyone else is an idiot. But......." Well no one wants to be THAT guy!, best advice is to do copious amounts of reading and make up your own informed opinion! To get you started there are several types of tunes and not all are...

Well keep up posted on your progress! Thanks for the well written outline!

There is a large wiring harness connector that runs along the frame under the drivers seat. It has been known to come loose and need to be reconnected. You did not not mention if you had a check engine light or any trouble codes. You might check the connections at the ECM also.

Not sure how you managed that! FCA does not replace the tone ring unless it fails (which yours obviously didn't) Are you sure you just didn't get the software patch? The tone wheel is usually at least a day and a half repair! https://www.chrysler.com/universal/webselfservice/pdf/66A.pdf

I am happy to say I have never had any debris in mine. Changed every 15000 miles with only OEM filters.

2015 RAM bought new. 70000 miles The software fix warranty for the tone ring/reluctor wheel was 8 years from purchase date of truck. My warranty expired in July of 23 so it was on me if it failed at that point. Being as I had some fall camping trips planned it was cheaper to have the work done...

Sounds like you have every reason to be upset with VERY poor dealer service. (understatement) Congratulations? on getting it running though!

You can check your vin number with RAM. There is a good chance your truck was already part of the settlement by the 1st or maybe 2nd owner. If all the recalls have been complete chances are someone else collected on the settlement.

Well I bought my 2015 brand new and it has been a fantastic truck. Most people who are in one for the long haul would tell you to consider a quality tune that will likely increase longevity. There are numerous tunes available but the GDE EPA compliant tune is well regarded and the EOC tune from...

Same thing you had done, "Crankshaft Positioning Sensor"
