    Chirping sound while driving my Truck

    Hey guys! I have been hearing a distinct "chirping" noise coming from....I don't know where...but here are the facts: a) only chirps when the truck is in motion (at stops and idle, no sound) b) as I accelerate, the chirp gets quicker and quicker...as I slow down, so does the chirping c) when I...

    DEF Filter

    I have a 2017 Ram 3500....I heard that one should change the DEF filter at some point as unwanted particles could get into your exhaust system if it is not changed....no where in my Ram owner's manual does it state when to change this filter. So, does anyone know : a) do the newer ram trucks...

    Regeneration

    I have 32,000 miles on my Ram 3500. I read about the Regeneration process on this Forum and on YouTube all the time. But I have yet to see any message on my dashboard indicating that a regeneration is in progress....I have on occasion noticed a certain scent coming from the truck after I have...

    30,000 and Done

    Had my 30,000 mile regular maintenance performed on my Ram 3500 the other day (fuel filters, oil filter tire rotation, etc). The place that I go to have these services done informed me that 4 out of my 6 tires would not pass inspection within a couple more months of use. They are so bad that...

    Engine Hour Gauge Malfunction

    Don't know if any of you have had this problem but the other day, my engine hour gauge (Idle hours vs Drive Hours) all of a sudden went back to ZERO for both categories! I have 30K miles on the truck and don't care overall that this happened given that I cannot help the "way" the truck's engine...

    Spinner (Suicide) Knobs

    Anyone use on of these things on the steering wheel for added steering control (especially when backing up)? I figure these are no longer needed since the invention of power steering. I could be wrong. Or do some people use them because of the "cool" factor.

    State Inspections

    In my state, Virginia, every vehicle must have a State Inspection performed on it every year!! Local service stations are authorized to perform these inspections....my problem is that the 3 stations I went to so far, all say that my Ram 3500 Dually is too big and heavy for them to safely do the...

    Resetting TPMS?

    Had a flat in my passenger, outside rear tire (dually truck) today....after changing it to the spare and then eventually fixing the flat tire itself and reinstalling it, my TPMS still states that there is ZERO pressure in the tire (while all the rest of the tires are showing the proper psi...

    Tale gate failure

    Had my tail gate pop open twice today for no reason....first time was on an Interstate ....lucky my hand truck and the two 4x4 wood blocks I had in the bed did not fall out the rear of the bed.....I thought that one was just "bad luck" so I ignored it but not more than 1 hour later (as I was...

    Fuel Tank Capacity

    This may be a silly question but my 2017 Ram 3500 Diesel truck supposedly has a fuel tank of 30 gallons (according to the manual)....but, today, I was very near empty and after I put in 20 gallons, the needle was almost on FULL....anyone else question the size of their tank?

    Burn baby burn

    Took my 2017 Ram 3500 Diesel (manual transmission) to the Ram dealership the other day to get regular maintenance performed. Even before I turned the keys over to the service guy, I wondered whether the eventual mechanic that would be working on my truck would indeed know how to drive a standard...

    Water in Fuel

    I have read so many different opinions/ stories on when/if this has ever happened to a diesel owner's truck. My truck is a 2017 Ram 3500 Diesel Dually so I only have 6,000 miles on it thus far. Was wondering if any of you guys out there have ever had any issues with water in your diesel fuel...
