At that point I would try draining the def tank and cleaning the sensors, also the def injector in the exhaust could be restricted. Should all be simple stuff to do yourself. I had seen some def crystallization on the exhaust injector causing problems when I was researching low temp def years ago.

Honestly it won't hurt the truck either; even with the update. Fca outright said to me on the phone that I could run out my 5w30 oil change without any harm. And no flash is going to Make a certain oil weight all of a sudden insufficient. Assuming by this point you get where I'm going. Also...

I had a photo of how I filled the front but no dice finding it. Sorry!

Yea just use a full synthetic 75w90. Seems to be the common replacement!

Yes that is correct, but the front differential is an oddball weight from mopar, every bit of research that I did people just switch to 75w90. Also is that the bottle does not fit to fill, you can either use a gear oil pump or what I did was put a section of hose on a gear oil cap and basically...

If it weren't for the fortune of shipping I have no problem running 5w30! Usps large flat rate box maybe?

Correct, it will always be from the dipstick

Always referred to that new badge style as a tramp stamp it just took a little before it clicked exactly how accurate it really was!

Personally I will be using champion synthetics global trans atf that is rated for 10 speed. Running it in my other vehicles with positive results, even correcting issues in an older transmission with a previously shuttering TC on another brand of new fluid, has since been corrected. I have been...

Can't beat that!

The irony behind that is I only know of one or two guys that actually do have 2 ecodiesel's and they're happy and problem free with both as far as I know. One bad egg and guys are quick to dismiss the lot. And people just like to vent on the WWW of course

Very simple mechanical answer to this, Jack up your rear end with truck in Neutral, rotate one Tire by hand, if they both rotate same direction you have lsd, if they rotate opposite it's an open or standard Differential. Or I suppose a guy could do a burnout and check that way lol (powerbrake...

Had an issue with my drivers window refusing to Auto Up the last few days, not really sure what triggered it but was really bothering me. Anyways simple fix, I had a 2001 Mercedes clk, frameless window coupe, if the battery was ever disconnected the windows would stick 4" from close, (they Auto...

Most of my commuting is small town 1-2 miles. Lots of idling with Minnesota winters. But I get a lot of highway miles also, I only run into high dpf issues if the truck doesn't get out of town for a week then it bitches it needs some drive time to burn off. No biggy. That's the "don't buy a...

Laramie longhorn has the painted bumpers. I have the white gold 2 tone and really like it. Only chrome is grill, door pulls, and tow mirrors, oh and a little chrome clad on the wheels but with the white gold painted inserts it's nothing flashy

Dj does still have the air cooled external oil cooler but at premium price point of course

Almost 300k on brakes is equally impressive

Thank you @BoostN

so a few things wrong with the fuel filter procedure, 1.) book states to cycle the key with the Phillips drain open to drain without having to open it and break the vacuum. (I have not done this yet for a filter change so I'm not positive how thoroughly it drains and I have a solid drain plug...
