Used AlfaOBD to turn off the "Unintentional Idle" horn honking. I've been meaning to do that for a while, and today it finally made it to the top of the list.

I hate giving up. I also have learned to listen to the little alarm buzzer in my brainstem that tells me what I'm about to do is a bad idea. "Good judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from poor judgement?"

Nice - I love a clean, quiet desert!

I have spoken to my dealer about it and intend to find a time to take it in when the tank is low. It'll be a few weeks before I can schedule a day for that and will post an update. In addition to the inconvenience, I'm concerned about damaging the evap system components.

That happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Vehicle behind me followed close from a stop light through a right turn and my trailer blind spot notification came up. That's different than what I get when I plug in and it asks me to select trailer type.

I drove a school bus for ten years - regular route and field trips. Driving any vehicle that doesn't have other people's children in it is nice! I'm glad they make the variety of trucks that they do, and we all have the freedom to travel in a manner that suits us. Enjoy!

We had a Cummins owner along on a recent trip - no trailer. Part way through day two he asked, "How big is this gas tank?"

I really like that feature. It makes me think about retrofitting it into the bunks in our Jayco.

I picked up the truck yesterday. Paperwork says they found a burr on the driveshaft yolk - driveshaft and seal were replaced. I'll continue to keep an eye on it.

They are planning to replace the driveshaft (and exhaust pipe). Should take a week, maybe a week and a half, to get the parts and replace them.

Crawled under my truck today to see if the exhaust rattle was the broken Y-pipe brace I've read about (it was) and noticed the transfer case seal was leaking again. 20k miles. I'm taking it in tomorrow, we'll see how it goes this time.

Bummer - hopefully that will fix it all!

Have you tried a "soft reset"? It fixed the compass problem on my 2024 8.4", no-nav, system. ------------------------------------- To perform a soft reset of your Uconnect system- 1) Put your vehicle into the accessories mode (ACC or RUN) For keyless start (push-button) vehicles: push the...

I'll amend my comment about the insurance. The adjuster called and spoke to my wife on Friday. She said she is sorry about the result, and consulted her supervisor who said there isn't anything for them to do about the repairs - it is between the vehicle owner and the repair shop. So, I...
