    Coolant Low

    Truck is 2018 3500 with 39k This is showing up on the instrument panel with a battery symbol. Coolant is not low though I did add about a quart after first had this display. No leaks. Gotta tow a large fifth wheel in about a week and am wondering what is going on. Wonder what turns this on...

    Fuel Filter Service Life

    Truck is a 2018 with only 36K. Just checked my owners manual and it indicated you should change both fuel filters at 15K or 12 months. Certainly understand the 15K requirement but I wonder if the 12 month requirement is not excessive especially when you consider these are not cheap. I have had...

    4 WD Issues

    Transmission Leak

    Have meant to ask this question for some time but haven't. Truck is a 2018 3500 dually 4WD Aisin with all of 33k on it now. I took delivery of the truck in May, 2018. In Sept, 2018 when the truck had 1,801 miles I crawled under the truck and noticed a white powder on the vertical sides of the...

    Clicking noise Key Off

    Truck is a 2018 Tradesman all of 33k miles without push button start. Know this sounds strange but both the wife and I have heard this distinct clicking noise when the key is not in the ignition. Almost sounds like an electrical switch opening or closing. Noise lasts a short period or time...

    Front Wheel Cover 2018 Tradesman

    Have already had to replace one cover but now need to replace the second one. This is the large cover that covers most of the front wheel and not the smaller one that covers the lug nuts. Can't find my record of where I bought the first one but was from E Bay somewhere. Anyone know of a good...

    Low DEF Warning Light

    Low DEF warning light is not on but gauge is in the red zone. Truck will be used very little this summer and hate to add DEF that "might" go bad in our hot summer weather. Was wondering if I could just drive it till the light came on and then add DEF. This is assuming there is a decent window...

    Code Reader

    Do not have a code reader. Need one to read and hopefully clear codes on my just absolutely wonderful 2018 dually. Have had a Cummins for almost 20 years and never bought a code reader. Appears most folks use something called Alfa. What is the real name and where do I get this device...

    Brake Issue on Fifth Wheel

    Might see my post above about trailer brake wiring. I went ahead and installed all new brakes with manual adjusters in lieu of the automatic adjusters. Adjusted the brakes and went on a test pull. Have almost no brakes. Can just barely and I mean barely feel any braking action. Rechecked...

    Fifth Wheel Trailer Brake Wiring

    I cannot find a wiring diagram for my trailer. Have spoken to several folks locally and do not get an answer. Even when new I was not as satisfied with the braking on this trailer with automatic brake trailer adjustment as compared to my old trailer with manual brake adjustment. Trailer is a...

    3500 Transfer Case Fluid

    Truck is a 2018 3500 dually 4WD with Aisen. Almost time to change the transfer case fluid. Knew the dealer would be high but with tax would be $41 a quart. I did not find an exact match on Amazon but they were high too. Is there an acceptable alternative that is priced reasonably?? Thanks in...

    Aisen fluid change

    Still haven't gotten around to completing this task and have everything needed. 7.2 quarts seems to be the correct number for a 30K drain without dropping the pan. Understand you need to check at the correct temp. Are you draining with the fluid hot, cold or somewhere in between? Thanks

    Dehumidifier in RV

    Time to replace the dehumidifier in my fifth wheel. When go to Amazon there are many brands. A lot I have never heard of. Problem with these is some seem to produce more heat than others and some are terribly noisy to the point people will not use them unless the humidity is just out of...

    AS69RC Aisin Transmission Fluid

    This is one of those just to be sure questions. Truck has Aisin transmission and is ready for the 30k drain and fill but have a question. Owners Manual requires Mopar ASRC Automatic Transmission Fluid or equivalent. No listing of specs just the name of the fluid and does not list other...

    Aisin Fluid Change --Transfer Case Fluid Change

    Truck (2018 3500 dually 4WD) is ready for the 30K transmission fluid change. To be sure since we are dealing with an expensive component. Mobil ATF 3309 is acceptable? On just a drain, the amount to refill is about 7.2 quarts? Of course need to check at the proper temperature. What is the...

    Tire Dressing

    Have six new tires on the fifth wheel and truck. Curious to know what tire dressing folks are using? There are a bunch out there and some may actually not be good for tires let alone protect them.

    Service 4WD

    Truck is a 2018 3500 dually that just turned 22K. Had a message show up on the dash display that said "Service 4WD" Hard to believe but the wife has lost the owners manual manual but an explanation may not be in the manual anyway. Message showed up twice for a couple of minutes, went away...
