I have 132k on mine. I’m unsure if the previous owner tuned with gde but according to alfaobd programming my throttle response is all the way up, and I regen roughly every 120-130 miles. I drive 20 miles one way to work, 7 of that tends to be stop and go. I bought it with 113k and haven’t done...
Rocking 35/1250r20’s on stock wheels with 1.5 spacers.... 2” rough country leveling kit. I had to space it out because at full turn it would rub the control arms and the inspector didn’t like it.
True that. Dealer called me on the emission crap to bring truck in. I asked if this has to do with the settlement and all that and they gave me the run around. I don’t understand why the dealer an hour from me shoots me straight and answers all my questions but my local dealer has to be a dick.
hey guys just wanted to update, truck hasn’t had an issue since replacement. Matter of fact I just got done doing the oil and filter change and figured I would update everyone because I ordered the glow plug relay when I ordered the glow plug and oil filter. So in my case, the glow plug was...

I think this is about what he ordered, I never seen the kit he said it was 460 so I’m assuming he ordered a better brand. Diesels have been around for a long time, so has crap breaking off in motors. Where...
They do make a tool to remove this issue. Not sure where your located but I had the same issue on mine. My #4 spun out when I was removing it. The design allows the inner glow plug to be removed allowing the sleeve and body to remain together. What the tool does is remove that inner plug and...
I get 22-26 driving 55-70 to work stop and go. Highway I can flirt with the 30’s if I’m driving sensible. But my foot gets the best of me and I like making it whistle lol. I am unaware if the previous owner has tuned or done anything with ecm as I believe the truck was strictly commuter vehicle.
Can you see the plug? I go to pick mine up from the shop this weekend. There is a special tool made to remove these plugs once SHTF. I broke mine but never could pull the remainder out so I left it in the hands of a coworkers brother to get it done. As long as you can’t remove the glow plug it...
Good afternoon fellas.
I come today bearing good news. Well sort of. I attempted the step by step directions on removal of the glow plug! Side note on the 1500 rams you don’t need to remove anything but the top cover. Well I got it 5 complete turns out and went to wrench it back in and it...
That’s going to be on the drivers side of the motor in the center. Passenger side is 1-2-3 starting from front by grill to fire wall and drivers side is 4-5-6 starting at grill to firewall.
Well the message has shown up again today. Ole lady is driving it so when she gets home I’m going to attempt to pull the plug. It’s sunny and cold today so I don’t think moisture is the culprit.
I debated taking it to an import dealer... you would think someone would have answers. Problem is there’s only 2 diesel techs at both dealers close to me, which tells me they aren’t taking the time of day to actually troubleshoot.
Just got done with my service call, message is gone and cel didn’t come on like last time. At the moment I’m believing my module to be my culprit. Dealer has a plug in stock. I’d just hate to replace the plug and the module be the problem. It seems to me If the plug was the issue it would be a...
Well all was good until today. Back on and flashing again after they supposedly fixed the plug. It’s raining today so I’m not sure as to if that is contributing to the issue or not. I’m just fed up. I have an appt at a different dealer Monday. I just want it fixed.
Just an update at the moment, since the connection fix the truck started perfect no stutter or hesitation yesterday, 30 degrees out. Didn’t drive it so I could keep the salt off my black paint 😂
You sir are a savior!! I hope what the dealer did fixes it but I have a feeling I’ll be giving it a whirl. I have tried to post pics but it tells me they are too big for the server. I just don’t get it my 5.9 magnum never gave me an issue and it’s at 203k with 60k of those miles being hard lol...
So I don’t have to undo that god awful mess of tubing that looks like a spider? Sorry for my ignorance the last time I looked under that cover it resulted in a broken bug guard and a case of beer getting demolished in frustration. I will have a gander under the hood when I get home to see if I...
What do I need to take off to get to #4? I’d give it a wing myself but I can’t find any good info as to how to get to it with any ease. I just still don’t understand how they have an extractor tool for every other plug in the world except this one. I contacted another dealer and he told me that...
