    Air ride to Strutmasters

    I just replaced my air ride with the standard RAM truck suspension supplied by the dealer. Worked just fine not as good but it works all the time! I up graded rear spring with TUFF Truck progressive springs to handle the weight I carry (1,300lbs) for interstate HWY speeds as it was bottoming...

    Baby's first Regen frustration 😡

    I had that problem all the time while down south in MX where I could not drive over 50 mph! So I would run it in a lower gearing with manual shift button on the steering wheel and keep the rpm at 2,200 rpm I could the burn done in about ten minutes. Having the EDGE ll is also a great help as it...

    Idiot lights now

    Save yourself allot of money, down time and replace the air suspension with a standard system or the Bilstein Converion kit available for the truck as I did!

    2014 Ram

    I was able to drive my truck into the dealer to start the repair work but it started and ran like an out of tune gas engine (35 miles) no power basically limping along but I would not wait to long! (I now carry a spare tone wheel and sensor just in case!)

    Anyone removed the DEF system?

    New four lane HWY run yesterday with the same conditions as before but at speeds of 75 to 80 mph for 398 miles. Calculated fuel economy of: 28.3 mpg That looks like that’s as good as it will get with the way this truck is setup. The Trip Milage indicated was reading 10.1 l/100 or 28 mpg so...

    RECALL W58 - Crankshaft position sensor tone wheel may delaminate

    The one hour job I believe was to get a signal off of the camshaft sensor! The actual Tone Wheel and sensor can only be done by dropping the transmission about a two day job in the shop once they have the parts on hand! Getting the parts was the problem you would think if your company was...

    Safety Recall 66A Loss of crank shaft position

    My tone ring a had no other visible cracks other than the chunk that fell away! Rear crank shaft seal would have been a smart thing for me to have done what is CPS not familiar with that term! Just in case there is a next time!

    Anyone removed the DEF system?

    Just did the complete delete and very happy with the engine response (no turbo lag), very little smoke detected on normal acceleration. I have not done a long trip yet but on the HWY home it was running about 35 to 40 mpg (Imperial) and it just feels like a different truck. Greatly improve...

    Safety Recall 66A Loss of crank shaft position

    Tone wheel and sensor replacement while in Mexico last spring. I order both parts from MX and Edmonton and then reordered from Greece and had them in a week from Greece! Save the set from Edmonton as a spare set just in case that was at 245,000 km. I replaced the sensor at the same time due to...

    RECALL W58 - Crankshaft position sensor tone wheel may delaminate

    Tone wheel delaminated at 240,000 km! Contacted FC about the recall does not apply to any truck over 100,000 km or as old as my 2014 Eco Diesel. Three weeks for tone wheel and sensor in Canada, 1.5 weeks to have the part shipped from Greece to Puerto Vallarta MX. I do not know how a parts guy in...

    Banks intake manifold install?

    Any updates on the Banks 630 T intake manifold install , other equipment need and how does the engine run in summer and cold winters! Cat converter seems to failing and I am wanting to eliminate the system completely, it so useless down here in MX where speeds are only 80 K/hr most of the time...

    Air Suspension Problems

    Just an update now at 195,000 km and the standard coil spring suspension is working just fine on my 2014. It's not as plush as the air ride but it's never let me down, do not be afraid of making this change and saving yourself a lot of grief and cost!

    EDGE CTS 3

    CTS II which I use is like you remember, tap the bottom center of screen, switches to screen two, touch Diagnostics and opens to the next screen Diagnostics. As you stated press Mobile Regen and its set to start a regeneration cycle the next time you start the truck.
