    RAM Dashboard Replaced with the help of @RamCares

    Hard to believe this is still happing on newer vehicles. You would think it would have been resolved after all the years happening with these dash boards coming up. I had the same thing happen on my 2011 grand cherokee overland. It was one of the main reasons I got rid of it at the time...

    UDYSPWGN “Build”

    I have a 2016 power wagon and Im curious as to what oil temp you were getting pulling your trailer. My coolant temps and trans temp are great but noticed when I pulled a 20ft cargo trailer that probably weighed 5000lbs total and my oil temp got up around 240 on a 65-70 degree day. I didnt feel...

    For the guys who think deactivating the mds via a tune is a good idea

    Never an issue with the one I have. It’s been in 3 different trucks now and operates great. Sometimes I even change modes on the fly without issue. I have heard stories of issue with some but so far so good. I have the hikeit x9

    Plug in a throttle controller and you will never feel that lag again even when mds is active it’s very quick to respond.

    2024 3500 air suspension problems

    I think he meant 5 thousand miles. That’s how I’m reading it anyway. He only had 700 lbs in the bed

    2014 2500 6.4 what to look for

    Thats quite the expensive one there. Almost 1800 bucks before core return. Honestly know nothing about next gen but it looks like it’s made well. I’m sure it will be a great one regardless and will work.

    2014 2500 6.4 what to look for

    Same color I have on my power wagon. Beautiful color in the sunlight. Has alot of green and blue metallic flake in it. As far as the valvebody goes you are correct that is a weak link in the trans and so is the solenoid shift pack. I have seen the destruction first hand and its not pretty. I...

    Should I buy a Power Wagon with high miles?

    I don’t suggest going over tow rating but can add air bags to help if it’s an issue with sag. It helps a ton with squat and stabilizing everything while towing. Just add cradles for off roading.

    Intermittent antifreeze smell

    It could be a leak coming from the egr coolant lines under the intake manifold. The leak is small and usually won’t see the coolant until you pull the intake itself. I believe it’s a common issue on the 6.4 hemi.

    Good transmission shop in Edmonton ?

    I’d say your capable for sure. I put a sonnax in mine which are reman oem with upgraded components and they have been machined flat to get rid of the warping. I can’t really comment on other brands but I know revmax and ats make them.

    Sounds more like the solenoid pack to me. They are a known issue along with the valvebody. I don’t want to tell you to just start throwing parts at it but if it were me I would change the valvebody and solenoid pack together. If you are comfortable doing it then I would definitely do so...

    2017 6.4 HEMI 3500 SLT wont start

    I would check the fuel pump. Should be able to hear it come on when you turn the truck to run. Check and see if you have fuel pressure.

    Synthetic Oil

    The 6.4 is still continuing from what I understand. Just the 5.7 is going away I believe.

    Synthetic Oil

    Don’t think the 5.7 heavy duty’s ever got the mds at all. When the 6.4 was put in the trucks that’s when mds started I believe.
