    Update on Cold start up cold climate noise

    Yes the solenoids are "normally closed" which means no oil. When it goes into MDS then they open and high pressure oil enters the special MDS lifter closing the intake valve. So in theory eliminating the solenoid opens the lifters up to oil and the spcial MDS lifter would be replaced with normal...

    How many miles do you have on your 4.5 gen gasser?

    Happy Camper Roll ON! Did you have to do any programming for retractable running boards or plug and play? That is why I did not upgrade yet

    Update on Cold start up cold climate noise

    My Ram (29k miles) 6.4 ltr is under warranty luckily and I had an intermittant louder then normal noise at very cold temps in michigan that would go away. I tried different filters and all of the things possible only to take it to dealer and find out it was lifter issue. So I say take a video of...

    Feedback on the Automatic Leveling Rear Air Suspension

    I think it's a matter of opinion. If you are only loading the truck with about 1200 pounds due to the rake it will be sitting almost level without air suspenstion. At a certain payload above 1200 lbs is where the air suspension is paying dividends. This and the conveniance of the drop feature...

    Towing with new 6.4L

    This was a cold air flow kit not just a paper filter inserted into stock set up filter case FYI they have Dyno records to prove it and supposedly does not viol;ate warranty. Regardless I may go back for drone sound when towing as It was a waste of money.

    Towing with new 6.4L

    2022 Laramie Gasser with ZF trans and 373 gears did great with 10k trailer in mountains. Did not runaway you can just keep your foot off pedal and coast down mountain. You may need to get your foot in the pedal up the mountain but trans and eng temp were pretty good. Had 1500 lb hitch load and...

    How many miles do you have on your 4.5 gen gasser?

    2022 Ram 2500 gasser with 25k miles. Used to tow 10k camper did great in mountains and downhill without runaway. Don't suggest K&N upgrade for cold air intake if you are towing a lot as it gets droning and loud on hwy pulling. High hitch load of 1500 lbs is perfect to set rear end with a small...

    2022 Ram 2500 uconnect error at every start up

    Dealer finally fixed it by installing new "module". Recall letters on ABS and rear camera are seperate issues and need to be taken to dealer to get fixed

    Oil Thread - 6.4 Hemi

    I changed to wix filter but using Mobil 0-40w european car formula. I need more time but think its still present but to a lesser event. I may try red line oil 0-40w or 5w-40 based on another post. Also learned oil filters have check valves that is supposed to allow cold oil to flow better due to...

    2021 2500 Ram Air Suspension Code Question

    I dont think smoke will hurt the system. The compressor uses desicant and breathing to "replentish" the air for "dry" air in the sealed system. Adding Moisture to system is NOt good but smoke probably only makes the air / dessicant smell like what ever your smoke smells like. Not with the...
