    Regeneration Frequency Issue: MAF Poll

    Trying to collect some data on the regeneration frequency issues. Based on all my research it sounds like the MAF (Mass Airflow Sensor) may be at the heart of many of these problems. There are, as far as I know, two different MAF sensors currently in circulation for these trucks. These can be...

    2022 Coolant leaks

    Walked out to my truck tonight to grab something and noticed, yet again, some coolant drops on the pavement underneath. Different spot than the previous leak (coolant plug on back of head). Traced this one to the block heater. If you have a 2022, look your truck over for leaks thoroughly. This...

    Frame-Mounted Water Separator

    Spent my Saturday doing a full maintenance on my 2022 HO. I ordered all of my filters through my local International Trucks Sales & Service center. They are able to order Fleetguard filters and had half of what I needed in stock. The other two filters arrived two days after ordering. I was...

    Y43 Recall PM Sensor for 22 Pickups

    Looks like Ram is starting to issue the recall info for the 2022 pickups missing the particulate matter sensor. I noticed this morning I had an “emission recall” in my online Ram account. That wasn’t there previously. It’s not showing up on the ram app yet. Pickups have been waiting to get this...

    2022 3500 DRW Center Caps making noise

    Anyone else with a 2022 (or 2019+) 3500 DRW experience an issue where the front center caps make a constant “clicking” sound while moving? I’ve been back to the dealer and they replaced them under warranty but, as you’ll see in the video, the new ones continue to make the noise. Hard to believe...

    2022 Valve Cover Gasket Leak

    2022 3500 HO During my most recent oil and filter change, I noticed a small amount of what appeared to be dried coolant on the bottom of the bell housing. Upon further investigation I found the coolant to be coming from a plug on the back of the cylinder head. While tracking that leak, I also...

    6.7 Engine Air Filter Confusion

    Wondering if someone can shed some light on this issue. I’m being given conflicting information regarding the engine air filters for these trucks. My dealer parts counter, as well as the service techs are telling me that engine air filter # 68517554AA is the correct engine filter for my 2022...

    Manual Regeneration for Pickups POLL

    Let`s face it. For those of us who drive a Cummins powered Ram as a daily driver, active regeneration cycles are just part of the day to day experience of ownership. If you're like me, you use your truck for both daily commutes as well as occasional or intermittent towing / hauling. This type of...

    Significant Change in the Frequency of Active Regens

    I tried to search prior to posting, but "frequency" of regen is bringing up more content related to DTC's. This did not match my scenario so here we are: My Truck: 2022 3500 HO CCLB DRW 3.73 Current Odometer: 23,950 miles Background Information: I just completed my second fluid and filter...

    2022 Premature Aisin Failures

    Seeing a lot of recent premature failures on the Aisin transmissions in 2022 trucks. Seems to be centered around trucks built around half way through the production run. All of the ones I’ve seen have lost all forward and retained reverse. Trying to get a grasp on what’s going on with these as I...

    Ordered July 21, Delivered November 21 Less than 18k on the odometer. Wheels and tires have never been removed from the truck. Both outer aluminum rims on the duals are already showing signs of significant corrosion under the clear coat in the area where the valve stem comes through. Anyone...

    Tow Mode Camera Connection Corrosion

    Those of you with the digital rearview mirror, make sure you check the tow-mode camera connector on the rear bumper (to the left of the license plate bracket). Just happened to open mine today and it’s already showing heavy corrosion, especially coming out of winter here in Southwest PA. This...

    Cummins / Ram Parts Exclusivity

    Tried searching but can’t find what I’m looking for: Can someone in-the-know give me some insight as to when Cummins and Ram signed or agreed to a parts exclusivity deal?
