Happily I can report that my CEL is now off. I did NOT clear the fault code whatsoever. Friday-Tuesday morning and it was all good. No big deal.
By the way I have bulk pump Def from the big rig lane if it is of any concern.
My HID system works great with Auto function. If you want "DRL" with such just cover the photo cell on the dash with electrical tape and you have always on exterior lighting when the vehicle is running.
The transmission filter is integrated with the transmission pan, completely unrelated to engine oil or pan. The extra capacity pan is just for peace of mind for those under extreme load, aka frequent tt tow'ers. Alternatively just change the oil before the 10k. Simple enough
I got a 7 year 100k bumper to bumper wrap for mine from the dealership third party, don't recall the exact company but not a mopar contract. 0$ deductible at purchasing dealer, $100 anywhere else. Not terrible. Ran like $2k
42k on my '15; near flawless. Hopefully I don't follow Mr Kitchens fate. But that will be a Warranty concern between ram powertrain, my third party extended Warranty, and my dealership lifetime powertrain Warranty, though I accidentally Used non spec oil for 2 changes by fault of my own I could...
I use torque pro also when I feel the need to monitor anything and it is pretty good, some limited dpf readings but if you know what to look for on egr temps 1&2 you can watch the regeneration cycle.
Anyways sometimes the trucks just pick a poor time to try and force a regeneration like right...
I have a system from enlight automotive. It's very similar to the one from another higher end place I think RetroShop or something like that, anyways I've had mine for about a year and a half and it's been fantastic. I have 55w ballast which I don't think are available anymore and the 8k (35w)...
I had gotten a bak roll-x when I first got my truck, I absolutely loved it. Only one problem the bed rails have an overhang for the tailgate cap and if they get bent down at all it will catch your tailgate cap when closing. Not that big of a deal, it just happened when walking on the bed rails...
I actually just got this code last night, only showing as a historical code though, not active or pending, my Def gauge is at about 5/8. I haven't tried resetting it and don't really want to. Think i'll drive it as is and see if it goes away in the 40x key cycles without fault for a code to go...
I actually ordered mine and specifically wanted the 3.55, and I was plenty happy. But things change and I just feel with the current tires the truck struggles a bit, I mean it does fine, but it COULD be happier, obviously rolling resistance will do that on a high MPG vehicle of any sort.
Contrary to your observations I put an aggressive m/t Tire about an inch and a half larger diameter from factory and I wish I had the 3.92, I think the truck would be a lot happier. It is nearly never in 8th, almost impossible to hold at normal speeds before the switch, and the rolling...
It's a low tolerance high efficiency engine with 10,000 mile oil change intervals with a 2.5gal oil capacity, this all comes from the synthetic oil, no Dino oil here. Consider this is a euro engine and high capacities with quality synthetics are the standard practice.
Barney I would suggest doing stand still regeneration's for you if you don't have the time to jump onto the highway, hold at 1800 or greater rpm's while parked and the truck will actively regenerate. It takes about 10 minutes but it beats going for a 30 min unnecessary drive. Anyways once it...
Not sure about the Warranty, it's under factory Warranty still. I have a 2015 I've put 41,xxxmiles on it and it has only required general maintenance, tires, oil, oil and fuel Filters, differential fluids, lots of fuel and washer fluid. Can't ask much more than that of any vehicle.
I think it ran about $235 but could be mistaken, it has a full morimoto harness for power, custom aluminum resistors with heat sinks for longevity, and a very nice inline capacitor. It's a great system, a bit beyond what retrofit shop offers. I have 8k (35w) bulbs and the upgraded 55w ballast...
