    Pacbrake Oil Filter relocation kit /Oil pressure drop

    I get the same, regardless of filter, running 5W20, but I don't remember 5W30 being much different when I ran it for a spell.

    How to Bypass (Trick) Seat Belt Switch

    Any chance you remember what setting it was? My wife will pop her seat belt to help the boys in the back on road trips, and the dinging is really ******* annoying. I actually am happy with the display, but the ******* dinging... I only found it in the EVIC settings I think, and turning the...

    My take on the 8.4 UConnect Update Failure (or: Beware of software updates!)

    They can't sell the continuing service if they allow us to run without cellular! what if you want to buy the hotspot from them, instead of your cellular carrier? Or use the uConnect app to ping where your truck was 3 months ago??? (My truck last I looked had been stuck at a gas station in...

    I lost the 2 coarse thread bolts that holds the grill on.

    ****, I did the other... I had all my bolts on a tray, and dropped one of the fine threaded bolts straight down, but somehow it still hasn't fallen out of the truck... I just decided with 3 of the 4 "main" bolts, and the 2 "tiny" side bolts, I didn't care that much about the 1 bolt, after I saw...

    AGS Frame Delete

    Found out the Rebel not only has the flaps deleted from factory (at least the '18), but doesn't even have the motor/sensor, so I was doing my headlights last weekend, and yanked the whole damn AGS frame out of the RAM, drove it to/from a local zoo (about 20 miles each way), and to work this...

    AlfaOBD help recovering auto dim feature

    The radio does tend to take a bit of time, as well as a "shutdown" (which is seemingly truck OFF, and the driver door open, close, and then some time.) When my battery died, and the Autozone idiot I let replace it "bumped" the power a couple times when he was connecting it, it took a couple...

    Memory Tow Mirrors on non-memory truck

    I'm not sure what module I have, I haven't pulled the door panel yet. I know I have power folding from factory (As I use it multiple times a day, almost every day, when I park...)

    Memory Tow Mirrors on non-memory truck

    What do you mean the "6x9 memory"? I have the folding/heated/dimming mirror already, just no memory (yet). I've tried writing to the door controller from Alfa, and in my 2018, it says basically "I don't have permission", with the KAoDTech cable, so do I need/should I also find a different door...

    Memory Tow Mirrors on non-memory truck

    Is this for my OG question, about the Mirrors, or the seats @Rip426 is talking about? (either diagram.)

    Looking for AGS delete solutions

    NC barely gets it most years. We get a couple DAYS where it is really "cold". (like sub-freezing) the rest of the "cold" days are like low 40's. I wonder if we could find a "coarser" screen mesh? IE bigger holes? Catch the bigger bugs, but let the smaller ones, and more importantly, more...

    Looking for AGS delete solutions

    I pulled my grill for a headlight bulb change, before I found the "good" (Read - NOT Fiat Chrylser) instructions that show how to do it without. I DO have the AGS system, just without the shutters actually installed. I got the truck with under 300 miles new from the dealer, and it was one of...

    Sales Codes to be Flashed/Added?

    It's an android app/windows app, that uses an OBDII dongle to allow you to manually change options in the BCM, and some other controller(s) in the truck. Since you are trying to add a Sales Code to the Truck, that tells me you want to "reprogram" something in the truck, and Alfa should let you...

    8 speed transmission change kit

    The JD power Cost of Ownership (or whatever that stupid thing is) plays into it as well. Plus the OEM doesn't want us to keep the vehicles longer than the loan period anyway (4-8 years) before we replace it with new, and they want the Used market to collapse, as I assume they don't get much for...

    First time oil change

    Ziplock for the win! then I can just drop the filter into the bag, zip it up, and toss it, no fuss, no mess. Pan plug valve things (I went Fumoto) are def a mess saver, but Amazon screwed up, and gave me the "swivel" instead of the straight, and it def takes longer to drain through the hose...

    Looking for AGS delete solutions

    The fan temps per my understanding are controlled by the ECU, which Alfa does NOT have access to (or at least per my understanding.), plus your ECU has to be unlocked if it's a 2013 or newer (again, per my understanding). HBTuners offers it for like $600, but that is JUST the unlock, you still...

    Sales Codes to be Flashed/Added?

    Have you looked into AlfaOBD? If I have the right things selected, it shows something about steering wheel buttons. (honestly, I stopped looking, as I'm at work, and got bored of trying to read through the options, as there are a lot.)

    '18 key fob missing alarm when both fobs in the truck

    My '18 periodically throws the alarm for "key fob has left the vehicle" when my wife and I both have our fobs in the truck, and she gets out. (She runs into stores periodically to grab something, leaving me in the truck with the boys...) and even when she gets back in, I have to restart the...

    AlfaOBD help recovering auto dim feature

    I'd start with checking VehConfig 3 for the electrochromic mirror value, make sure you didn't accidentally tell the truck you took the mirrors out, and in Radio and Connectivity, make sure the button is present. There is also one in Cust.Prog.Features: EC Mirror Auto-Dimming Enabled. (I have...

    2025 Ram Rebel Air Suspension

    I have it on my '18, with about 94k on it. I recently started getting an occasional issue if it's real cold (like freezing...) in NC when I first start it, and try raise the truck. (I usually try to park with the truck "down", as I have kids in car seats) But usually it shuts up by the time I'm...

    Bug Shield/Deflector

    I have the OEM one on my '18, which sticks up quite a bit, and I think it helps with the hood, but I still get a decent amount of guts on the windshield...

    Additional UAQ/UAS Update Files 28.3/30.24/34.2

    I did have some issues with 28.3 and the screen "blanking" or shutting down now that I think about it. Thought multiple times I had bricked the radio, until I upgraded to 39.2 (I think?) before 40.1 was "known", or released.

    First time oil change

    This pops up periodically in the oil change threads. it is handy, and works better than basically any other method, if you can somehow keep enough torque through the oil soaked bag to still unscrew the filter. (gas 4x4 5.7 here, with the stupid oil "cooler" thing that makes it hard to change...

    Getting rid of the shark fin antenna?

    I popped the plastic end cap off the steps in the parking garage at the Mercedes stadium in Atlanta a couple years ago when I was there for Fabtech, as the damn entry BARELY fits the RAM, and I folded my mirrors to not knock them off, so I didn't see that I was too close to the barrier at the...

    Getting rid of the shark fin antenna?

    My thinking was if the antenna flexed, I was not only going to lose the shark fin, but probably ruin the top of the cab. Then again, if I'm in a situation where that is a legit concern... I shouldn't be in the place at all, so I ditched the massive antenna for a slightly flexible like 8"...

    Getting rid of the shark fin antenna?

    They actually did. A lot of cars "hide" it in the top of the rear window, where it looks like it's just part of the defroster, but if you live somewhere where you actually can use the rear defroster, you would notice that that section doesn't defrost until the window itself heats up entirely. I...
