Hello All, I just recently rolled 67,500 miles on my 2008 and as expected the "Perform Service" message popped up on the overhead display. I am prepared to replace the CCV filter, clean the EGR valve, and clean the EGR cooler. However, I have been wondering is it really necessary to clean the...

sag2 - yep. I think that's what happened. I drove the truck around yesterday for a bit then shut it off and reconnected amp clamp meter as described in my last post. Sure enough, the fluctuations in amperage draw on the batteries have stopped. It'll no doubt start in again. I'll check it tonight...

I don't have that radio. Mine is just the standard satellite radio with single disc CD. thanks for the heads up though

Thanks. for the info! I'll check into this. The diagram you provided is helpful. I'm not sure what all of the designations mean however. I presume to unplug the cluster harness I'd remove connectors C219, C220. Or perhaps C200 and C308? Hopefully I can get to all of these by just removing the...

2008 4x4, 6.7, G56, Laramie My truck recently started pulling the batteries down to 11.5 volts after 4 days of sitting parked. Tried new batteries but didn't solve the problem After unplugging the underhood light, alternator wire, trailer brake controller, and closing doors (unlocked, alarm...

BigUgly - What weight of Royal Purple were you running?

Update to what I said previously in this thread I had to order two new front wheels because the el-cheapo clear coat that Vison uses on their machine finish "type 81 heavy hauler" wheels was failing. After 10,000 miles of summer use only. Disappointing to say the least. Anyhow, the wheels with...

That's fantastic. But the OP of this thread said that his truck would not be his daily driver. This thread was about what is the best fit for him, not you.

Hey All, I screwed up the tailgate on my 2008 dually and would like to buy a new one. On Ebay and Amazon I see a company called MBI Auto sells pre-painted aftermarket tailgates. You give them your paint code and they ship it to your door ready to go supposedly. They are apparently a direct fit...

On a SRW all 4 wheels are lug centered. No need for nylon rings (hub adapters)

Yeah, they are a dually thing. Because the wheels are lug centered, there is no way to center the inner wheels on the duals. So they provide a black nylon centering ring that slips over the axle/hub, then the wheel slips over it. Makes it hub centered so to speak. The outer rear wheels and front...

I'm running 19.5" Vision wheels on my 2008 dually. No issues with the lug centered wheels, even with heavy payloads on really rough roads. I run the Vision supplied black nylon centering rings on the inner rear wheels of course.

You are on the right track. The DPF will not be "plugged up" by oxides of nitrogen or sulfur. It only cares about particulates.

Sweet. Thanks guys!

2008 Ram 3500 Laramie 4x4 Dually 6.7 with G56. Howdy. What is the recommended method for flushing the power steering system? The factory installed ATF is pretty dark and gross, and ready to be flushed out. For my 2002 F350 7.3 there was a method where you could continuously add new fluid to...

That settles it then. The Ecodiesel is totally worthless and is indeed "inferior" as you have stated. Thank you for enlightening us Ecodiesel owners of these facts. I'm gonna put mine up for sale tomorrow before the heads blow off of it or the glow plugs fail.

RVTRKN. I guess I'm confused why you feel inclined to come on the Ecodiesel forum and make assertions that it is an "inferior engine" when you don't have any first hand experience with it. Fiat and VM definitely know how to build diesel engines. They've been doing it successfully for years and...

Oops. Moderator didn't like that apparently. I will rephrase and try again

RVTRKN - Do you own an Ecodiesel? I didn't see one in your signature.

My opinion. The guys that are having "problems" with blow by are the "Super Truckers". You know what a Super Trucker is don't you? Hint...they are the guys that leave their Ecodiesel idling in the parking lot for an hour or two while they eat in a restaurant, idle while fueling up with diesel...
