well the service guy told me to check with chrysler cause there are a few aftermarket filters they will warranty but not others. I just havent gotten around to calling the number to find out if mine is on the list

Took my truck to the dealership the other day and they brought to my attention that i have an aftermarket air filter. this is the only upgrade ive done to the truck so far. But the service guy told me that after market filters are not warranted by chrysler. He tried telling me that they had a...

Well took it in yesterday for the check engine light. I guess it was an intake temp. sensor that was cycling the intake heaters too long causing the thrown code. As for oil level they said they will deal with that when I bring it back for an oil change in a 1000 miles or so, but i doubt it.

Well I live in the country too. And its 20 mintues to this dealership. I understand that I have too deal with it. But it is a hassle when I constantly have to go up there and its hard for me to find time to get away from the farm to do it. Its just an all around hassle.

Well I talked to my salesman yesterday and he took me to the sales manager. So we all sat down and I told him my problems and that I wasnt happy at all. And he says non of this makes sense and wasnt really beleiving me. But my salesman confirmed that he had seen me in there numerous times and I...

The dipstick and tube are firm and in place. And as for measuring the amount of oil I dont know. The dealership changed the oil once but I doubt they checked the amount they drained. This dealership is really loosing my faith. They changed the oil cuz I told them it was an inch over full and...

Thanks Ive never heard of that. I have done some research and it seems there are no catches like that in the Wisconsin lemon law.

Well thats what Im tryin to do right now. I wish I could get a chance to go back to the dealership soon and try to work it out. If we dont see eye to eye on it then Im ready and willing to lemon law it I guess. Hopefully next week I can take it back in and try to work things out.

Yea everytime i check the oil its in the morning before I start it. And Sag2 I dont complain about my truck like you think I am. All Ive been doing is asking people I know about it and posting about it here. And Ive got 4200 miles on it now. The check engine light wont go off due to a couple...

Well adding oil I find very unlikely. As for other fluids they were all checked in the oil sample. I guess there is a trans. cooler that could be leaking. I have talked to many mechanics in my area and all of them know me and are trying to help me out too. And they all are baffled when I...

Well I finally got my oil sample back. It took 3 weeks for some reason. But anyway the results were negative for fuel and everything that would be considered a contaminent. So now Im back to square one on this thing. My dad called his friend the other day who is a cummins mechanic (ag. side...

I really like the lights on my 4th gen dodge. The only thing I dont like at all is when I turn. I have noticed that when I turn into driveways and such I am completely blind. My old chevy I could see everything even beside me when I was turning. This truck its pitch black out there which makes...

Well I dont understand what the big deal is. It can be (and probly is) any number of different things going on at once. You guys are trying to figure out whats going on inside a trucks computer that is programmed to do hundreds maybe even thousands of things every second to keep the truck...

Ok that makes more sense.

Originially Posted by rscurtis I guess I dont understand. What does putting a cat/dpf in the exhaust have anything to do with the engine creating excess soot/fuel built up in the oil?
