    Who is towing what with their Ecodiesel?

    Contrary to your observations I put an aggressive m/t Tire about an inch and a half larger diameter from factory and I wish I had the 3.92, I think the truck would be a lot happier. It is nearly never in 8th, almost impossible to hold at normal speeds before the switch, and the rolling...

    Ram EcoDiesel Oil Change Information

    Even in the gasser, had mb and BMW vehicles in the past that were synthetic 10k oil changes, nobody even thinks to run Dino oil

    Ram EcoDiesel Oil Change Information

    It's a low tolerance high efficiency engine with 10,000 mile oil change intervals with a 2.5gal oil capacity, this all comes from the synthetic oil, no Dino oil here. Consider this is a euro engine and high capacities with quality synthetics are the standard practice.

    How many miles on your ecodiesel and have you had any problems?

    Barney I would suggest doing stand still regeneration's for you if you don't have the time to jump onto the highway, hold at 1800 or greater rpm's while parked and the truck will actively regenerate. It takes about 10 minutes but it beats going for a 30 min unnecessary drive. Anyways once it...

    How many miles on your ecodiesel and have you had any problems?

    Not sure about the Warranty, it's under factory Warranty still. I have a 2015 I've put 41,xxxmiles on it and it has only required general maintenance, tires, oil, oil and fuel Filters, differential fluids, lots of fuel and washer fluid. Can't ask much more than that of any vehicle.

    led headlight replacement

    I think it ran about $235 but could be mistaken, it has a full morimoto harness for power, custom aluminum resistors with heat sinks for longevity, and a very nice inline capacitor. It's a great system, a bit beyond what retrofit shop offers. I have 8k (35w) bulbs and the upgraded 55w ballast...

    led headlight replacement

    It's a pretty tight fit inside the headlight housing I think to do an led high or low lamp you would need to use the ribbon style or you will basically have to run without the entire dust cover on back because of the size hole you would need drilled for the fan and heat sink style. I run a high...

    What did you trade for your EcoDiesel?

    That was a nice looking combo but I can imagine the little DuraMax struggling a bit more than one would like with that boat.

    REPORT: EPA to hold hearing today about new cheating allegations

    I think that the biggest flaw to at home major maintenance or Repair to this truck is the Turbo being under the firewall requiring the cab to be removed. If it's unrelated to the Turbo? I think the average Joe has a fair chance aside from the lack of documentation. But once the Turbo or intake...

    REPORT: EPA to hold hearing today about new cheating allegations

    I'd be on the fence between letting them buy it back if it compensates me enough factoring in two years of depreciation I paid. Otherwise i'll figure it'll drop our MPG to about 24 highway for their "fix" which then we get advertised MPG reimbursement like they had to do for false advertised...

    Headlights

    There's not really another option, the inline canbus modules don't seem to fare well with our trucks

    Grill cover when to use

    Yes there was a tsb issued for the trucks for intercooler icing up without a winter front. So every ram truck that came with a factory installed block heater CABLE is eligible and/or received a mopar winter front free of charge. Those trucks without a factory installed block heater CABLE are not...

    Hauling fuel mileage!

    On a safety note you need something more than 1000# ratchet straps for a full size truck on a trailer, and I'd stay with weight distribution, back the vehicle onto the trailer persay or even rolling back onto the dovetail some

    LED headlights won't stay on

    Or run a harness system that specifically includes a capacitor. I had an in line capacitor go bad and my seamless HID system began to flicker. A small inline capacitor and using a relay harness is the trick for the trucks.

    Aftermarket Light options

    Did you do just a bulb upgrade or a new housing? A little unclear, I upgraded bulbs with something similar to their type B hid low beam system with fantastic results

    New Ram Body Changes

    Yeah I do not see the 2019 being the big revamp that it was supposed to be but likely a facelift, like you said grim, there will be more to come in the future.

    New Ram Body Changes

    I saw some stuff out there that kinda looked like a possible half ton Mega cab, they also have a rear door redesign and are possibly integrating the fold flat rear seats. Also heavier axles as it had 6 bolt opposed to our now 5 on 5.5 That photo above is a photo Shop pinched ram of our current...
