    2022 Uconnect 5 12.0 Glitches

    My issue was coming and going. They replaced the entire screen, reloaded the software ect. The dealer stated a tech note mentions a loose connection under the headliner. I believe he said to the antenna. They need the truck for the entire day to take out the headliner. Fortunately it’s under...

    2022 Uconnect 5 12.0 Glitches

    There is a loose connection in the headliner. Dealer has like 7 things to check and the headliner is the last thing they want to mess with because it is labor intensive and a money loser for the dealer.

    2021 ram 2500 headache of problems

    I had one, piss poor mileage and MDS issues. A real dog when pulling a 15k lb trailer. If you want problems buy the gasser. If you get on here and whine about the issues you have with your 6.4 or if you ask for an open forum opinion you get what you get. Most people today can’t spring for the...

    Need more towing capacity

    BUY A DIESEL!... get a 2500 with a Cummins 6.7. The guys selling you on the 6.4L are doing so because they could not afford the diesel. (SORRY)... But the diesel comes with a price premium. It will serve you well past the time you want to tow a trailer and be worth a LOT more when you want to...

    2021 ram 2500 headache of problems

    Shoulda bought the diesel. The 6.4L MDS was a design "improvement" over the 6.2L. The engine is a CAR engine. It has MDS which is just asking for valve train issues. The MDS engine that was put into 5.7, 6.2, and now a 6.4 liter truck engine DOES NOT WORK!! It tears up the camshafts and the...

    Winter Front Grille Cover - Installed

    It comes with the cold weather, or snow chief group option? Battery blankets and the like. Mine came with it, not sure exactly the package but it was under the back seat when I got my truck home. In my manual for the 2022 on page 139, it states the winter front cover should be used when ambient...

    Hemi vs Cummins

    The above from a shorty who could not afford the big truck….. any idiot with a 7th grade education knows a diesel will out last a gasser easily by 5x…. Proof is out there…. Next time don’t spend your BIDEN stimulus check foolishly on a parking lot princess! This is the guy who buys a 1500, de...

    Hemi vs Cummins

    While is is a $9k plus upgrade, the longevity is no comparison. The 6.4 has MDS which is known to work the 4 “on all the time” cylinders harder than the ones that free ride. This causes more ware on the upper end, cams roller bearings ect. Very expensive repair at 130k miles. Big picture…. The...

    Smell of burned plastic on start

    Hmmmm.... looks like I have a few more options than you do... But I will tell you my CAB HEATER doesn't work....LOL.... Dealer said it didn't have one... So maybe I need to do a bit more digging......

    Smell of burned plastic on start

    I am just saying my DEALER didn't have a clue about it... and if there is an electric heater on my 2022 3500 it does not work, OK? I am not trying to say anyone is a liar.. although I did call Bull pucks... So to all who are miffed, offended, or melting snowflakes, I sincerely apologize. All...

    Cummins 6.7 "Cabin Heating"

    Yea, it happens, SOME people are not only ignorant, but they are rude too...On a positive note, I had a guy at one of the multi fuel pumps with his snowmobiles on a trailer.. he filled up the sleds, then went inside to get food... all the while blocking the only diesel pump available.... I...

    Cummins 6.7 "Cabin Heating"

    That would be music to my ears!!! Nothing like a classic, 4 barrel big block ripping it up!!! I miss those days! As an aside... the Mopar 440 with a 4 barrel also would rumble on down the road!!! Nothing sweeter than pushing on the right pedal and opening up those secondary's !!! Deep throaty...

    Smell of burned plastic on start

    Discussion over…. My 22 3500 HO has no “electric cab heater”. Dealer said it must be an option. Pull your build list and it lists every part for your model….

    Cummins 6.7 "Cabin Heating"

    Here we go, so a few things to mention. READ the owners manual. A diesel engine is NOT designed to start up and drive off unless you want to damage it. Depending on your location, and the AMBIENT temperature, your engine may start, and if you attempt to drive off... it will derate to about 1,000...

    Winter Front Grille Cover - Installed

    Well, they didn't change much for the 2022's. My 3500 grill cover doesn't really "fit" the way it should. Basically the crappy instructions tell you to "force" the edges between the top part of the chrome surround above the "grill". IMPOSSIBLE TO DO UNLESS YOU WANT TO BREAK THE PLASTIC...

    Still call bull poop, mine starts cold and stays cold until the temp gauge starts moving. But hey, I’ll just say you are right….
