    UPDATE: Help! My High-Mile RAM May Need A Transmission…

    Never serviced the transmission. Wow statement First off the thump could be a U joint. The heating could be a clogged filter in the transmission. I have never heard of anyone not servicing there transmission before.

    Rear Differential Clunking

    As far as the clanking sound check to see how much play you have in the rear-end. Check your U-Joints on your driveshaft. Those gaskets are reusable unless you broke the gasket while taking it off. When you pulled the cover were any of the bolts looser than the others.

    Exhaust Manifold Bolt Extraction

    Instead of all that just make sureyour batteries are disconnected it shuts down the electronics. Wire welder usually doesn't have that kind of effect. But if you were using a stick welder that would be different. Do you have enough room to place a set of vice grips.

    Cummins Killer Bolt.

    I have a question to some of the service techs that are on here. I have a 2013 Ram 3500 and was just reading about the Killer Bolt on a Cummins motor. Is that with the 5.9 or the 6.7 and how easy is it to fix before it breaks and ruins my motor to start out with.. And where would I even find...

    What does your owners manual for the vehicle recommend. It should have a chart.

    What would you do?

    Once you have shavings in the oil pan they have travelled all through the engine. Time for a complete break down or crate motor replacement my opinion.

    What should I do?

    Be prepared for a stiffer ride with the Bilstein's. I had a friend replace his stock to Bilstein's since there one of the top of the line struts. That was his biggest complaint.

    Why should I stay with RAM?

    As far as the trucks are concerned it is what ever the person wants. I find the seats in a ram more comfy than the fords since I will be sitting in them for hours on end while traveling. I enjoy the leg room But I'm 6'6 and 330lbs.

    Oil percent .what does that mean ?

    That is true, the only time I had that problem was when I switched from standard full synthetic to Amsoil synthetic. I ended up switching back to the oil I was using.

    Front Windows, Door Locks, Power Mirrors not working (tried all the common fixes but nothing works)

    Have you disconnected your battery and left it unconnected for about a half hour yet. Your going to think I'm nuts but sometimes it re-calibrates the modules. All the electronics in these vehicles can be a nightmare sometimes. What it sounds like is you have a broken wire in the window...
