I first changed my oil at 4000. The light had not come on yet. Those miles included about 2000 miles of extended highway driving. At 6500 my oil change light came on. I took it in to the dealer to have it changed, but first I asked them to check to see if they had reset the computer the first...

From what I've read it doesn't seem to hurt to run a cetane booster in the winter regardless of the fuel. I'm assuming all fuel here is "winterized" but I don't see anything on the pump, so I started using an additive late in the winter. But then I read a suggestion that it doesn't hurt to...

I really like the new mirrors on the 2010s. The problem I have with the current mirrors is I cannot see the bottom of the rear tire, which would be nice when going around corners to check curb clearance or when backing into a parking spot. (Of course BMW tilts their mirrors down automatically in...

Has anyone added the stock 2500 tire pressure sensor system to their 3500? Even though the law doesn't require it, I don't know why Chrysler didn't at least offer it as an option. When carrying a load air pressure is pretty important. Of course, maybe someday they'll realize we tow trailers...

Is there a reasonably cheap, bolt-on replacement horn that sounds a little better than stock? I don't want an air horn, just something a little deeper; the stock one just sounds like a regular car, not a truck.

I was at the dealer today getting my recall flash, and the service writer pointed out that my sway bar links were all bent up. Both sides the same. I have a dealer-installed factory leveling kit on the front and that's it. The truck has never been off road. He implied that it's an issue with...

The dealer didn't recommend idle-up as idling was supposed to be bed, but the higher the idle speed the better it should be I would think. The manual says it will increase idle speed after a couple minutes of idling to increase combustion temperatures, or when it's really cold. I haven't...

So the older exhaust brakes caused problems with the transmission thrust bearing. I haven't heard about that any more. Are there any disadvantages to using the exhaust brake aside from poorer mileage? It seems it would help keep combustion temperatures up (and the manual recommends it for...

I have so many questions I've been afraid to post, but here goes. I don't understand the manifold heaters. The manual says if the wait to start light is on do idle for about 3 minutes to all the heat cycle to complete. (It would be nice if they just had a light so you would know if it was...

I have a 2009, built in Aug '09 and purchased in Sep. It lives a non-ideal life: my commute is only 3 miles, and it only sees towing duty in the summer. But I use the block heater in the winter, and usually drive it a fair amount on the weekends. Last Friday, with just shy of 6000 miles (which...
