Hello All - I am getting ready to do the 67,000 mile EGR service on my 2012. I have the EGR cleaning parts kit and instructions from Geno's.... looks pretty complete and straight forward. While I have the coolant lines off I am planning to flush and fill the entire coolant system. So my...

After about 3 years trouble free -the remote start feature on my 2012 is not working properly..... I have replaced the key fob battery several times just to be sure it wasn't the battery. The remote door lock/unlock works just fine - only an issue with the remote start. Any ideas? Thanks in...

Pulling some hills (dirt and steep) with my Travel Trailer behind this weekend.... my Edge programmer flashed and alarmed the transmission temp at 265F. The factory trans temp warning light DID NOT come on. I believe its just a setting in the Edge I need to bump-up. Anyone know at what temp does the...

I have about 35k on my 2012.... she still has the stock batteries. They are working great. However, the temp extremes here in AZ take a toll on the batts. I am thinking I should start looking to replace them soon. I've had great success with Interstate Mega-Tron batteries in my Travel Trailer. I...

Independent accelerator/brake pedal adjustment. I have always felt the differential between the accelerator and brake pedal height of about 2-1/2” was too much on my truck. If I wasn’t careful, my right foot would sometimes get caught on the right side of the brake pedal when transferring from...

I'm at 42k on my 2012 Laramie... she is on her second set of Firestones (from the original owner)..... I'm waiting for the new Michelin Defender LTX tire to go on sale at Costco. Anyway, the tires on my truck are LT27570R18's on 18" OE alloy wheels. When I search tire suppliers for 2012 RAM 2500...

Anyone else see this? Thoughts? They said Dodge tested the worst in the off set crash. http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2016/04/12/ford-f-150-gets-highest-rating-in-new-insurance-crash-tests/?intcmp=hpff I always use plan "A" for surviving a crash. Plan "A" = DO NOT crash. :-laf

About 10k miles ago I replaced the fuel filter on my truck with a Wix 33255 (per the WIX listing). Looking at the WIX web site the other day…. I noticed it said 33255 is a 12 Micron filter. Uh oh….. Dodge/Cummins says use a 5 Micron or better. Damn! Called their customer service…. Closed. Ok…...

During my last (messy) engine oil change, I replaced my oil pan plug with a Fumoto valve (http://www.fumotousa.com/)...... BEST THING EVER for about $40! It has a double sealed ball valve and a spring loaded "release" lever. I can control the flow and turn it on/off during the process (I keep...

Hey Group….. I’m at almost 40k miles on my 2012. About half of those miles were towing. I’m thinking I will service the 68RFE transmission this weekend (I don’t believe it’s ever been serviced). Anyone have tips or anything to look out for? I appreciate any advice. Do you know if it has a re-useable...

So, I did my winter oil change on Saturday and I noticed the "Grease the front drive shaft" decal on the front fender. I cannot find any place on the drive shaft or U-joint to grease.... no zerk fitting, contact wear point or otherwise. The decal it not real clear. Has anyone done this? What...

I hear that Cummins has added a new register to the end of their 2013-up 6.7L crankshafts.... to better center the starter flexplate. I believe the updated crank is part number 68206020AA. Does anyone have one of these trucks apart yet? If possible, I need a picture and perhaps a dimension of...

On several gas vehicles I've had, I cut the main power wire to the fuel pump relay, then ran to a switch hidden under my dash (or even one of those old head light dimmer switches placed out of sight under the front carpet mat). This way someone would need to have the keys AND know the location...

My 2012 goes in next week for the P65 fuel heater recall. Anyone else have this done? Do you know if they need to drop the fuel tank? I was considering filling up on Diesel today, but, if the tank needs to come down, thought I'd be nice and take it in on a partial tank. Also, I see my truck...

When checking the oil on my 2012 last week I noticed it was overfull. It appeared the oil level was just on the dipstick cable (above the plastic tip about, 3/4" above the "SAFE" mark). So either the previous owner overfilled the crankcase OR, possible leaking injector(s) adding fuel to the oil...

Anyone add overhead marker/clearance lights to the over-cab? I don't really need them - just like the "big rig" look. I see several aftermarket "kits" available. What are the chances the OE wire harness is in the headliner & all I need to do is mount the lights on my 2012? Fat chance?

I just ordered my PML rear diff cover. http://www.yourcovers.com/ I really like the idea of extra capacity and a fill/drain plugs + better heat dissipation. I ordered PML part number 10361-B (black powder coat) for my 2012. Nice looking piece! :-laf The last owner of my truck just had the...

Okay - I just ordered the Service Manual CD (2012 Truck) from TechAuthority. I like having all the factory service information - this is the first time I'll have it in CD format. All my other books are just that.... books. Anyway, I'm a little miffed about the price..... $135 for the CD, okay I...

Working on a buddy's truck - looking for information on the G56 trans..... specifically the front input shaft movement or "play" allowance. Anyone have a factory service manual that may show the amount of side movement allowed before a trans rebuild is needed? I felt a newly rebuilt trans and...

I've been looking to get a BULL bar for some additional front end protection and for looks. Most of the bars I've seen online are pretty reasonable.... 200 bucks or less. I don't want anything bulky or ugly..... I'm having a hard time finding pictures of our late trucks with a decent Bull Bar...
