    Air Ride Schizophrenia?

    What I thought I'd do is detail every little symptom just in case any of you have experienced or even "felt" this with your air ride. I replied in the "Right rear" thread, but I thought I'd build on it with a more specific set of issues. I'm working with a 2016 Lone Star, "air ride is nice ...

    Burning the old oil?

    This may seem outrageous to the layman, but I've seen people with older rigs running 12-valves, and IDI's change their oil, and use what they drained as fuel. Seems crazy, but also, it seems to work for those. I know our fuel systems are really sensitive, and our fuel filters down down to as...

    "Service Parking Sensors"

    I recently changed out my bumpers (my rear one had a hole of rust in the corner after only 7 years in Texas!) and decided to tackle the job of transferring over my parking assist sensors today. After reaming out the holes in the new bumper with a step bit, I ended up having to lengthen the...

    Changing Speed thresholds for Air Ride

    I'm considering laying out the dough for one of those Autel scanners, but I'm not sure if it's going to do what I want ... maybe I'll just need to go the AlfaOBD route. Question I have is, have any of you found a way to modify the speed thresholds for the Off-road 1 and 2 settings? While I...

    Switchback LED 3157's

    I run a set of 3157 Switchback LED's on my 2003 Thunderbird - it seems to work just fine, no errors. I purchased a set for the 16 Ram, and they work, however the front ones will switch off the "White" running light to use the "Amber" turn-signal, which will trip a "Parking Light Out" error on...

    What's your oil pressure numbers? What's what you'd consider normal?

    Just thought we'd all collate the numbers and see what that rolling average is. Odo is currently at 107k and change for some background. Running Rotella T6 5W40 with a Wix Filter. Cold start - idle 700rpm, oil pressure about 29psi Warm idle - about 19psi Acceleration after warm, climbs to...

    Replacing light socket = errors??

    So on my 16 Lone Star, it originally came with standard tail lights with the older style filament bulbs. I really didn't shake down the truck very long before it went down for almost a year - so I can't really say if I had this error before, but I did replace the bulbs with Sylvania Xevo LED...

    11 Months of downtime for...

    Hi everyone... remember me? I was the guy that bought my 16 Ram last year - 10 weeks and 600 miles later, I had a paperweight. The warranty people wouldn't cover it, and the stealership tried to extort me out of $15 grand saying I needed an entire fuel system replaced. Sounding more familiar? If...

    EGR question - stupidly simple solution?

    So, most of us know that whoever came up with the idea of cramming soot back down the throat of our Ecodiesels should be tortured... slowly and painfully. Here's a thought though - the forums here and elsewhere all talk about EGR cooler deletes and tunes and the like, but what about taking the...

    A Little Sunday Humor...

    For those of us with 40-thousand dollar lawn ornaments like I do ... This morning I found this ... for the princely sum of 11 dollars. "Rammos Flexible Magnetic Tape 1 inch Wide x 10 Feet Magnet Strips Roll with Strong Back Sticky for DIY, Craft Projects, Motari Tone Rings, Whiteboards &...

    Anyone found Tone Rings?

    I'm just curious - my dead after 10-weeks Lone Star is now 3 months disabled. The new mechanic I have working on it is fairly confident I have a tone ring failure (like many of you also thought). I've placed 8 orders for them, every time they're cancelled because their websites are out of date...

    Does your lift pump make a noise?

    My truck went in back in December, some of you may have seen that thread. I took it in because I no longer heard the electric pump or what I thought was the electric pump in the back make what I thought was typical electric pump noises. I thought I had a fuel delivery issue. It'd crank like a...

    I've had it 2 months, and it left me stranded today...

    I bought my `16 9 weeks ago. About two weeks ago, I take my dad out for his 87th birthday for his usual beer and chili. When we leave the pub, the truck would crank over and over and over and not stop until I keyed it to the "off" position (imagine a runaway starter). If I turned the key to ACC...

    Your oil pressure numbers

    I grew up in the age of building Small-block Chevy engines in your garage for a friend with nothing more than a couple manuals, a few JC Whitney & Jeggs magazines, a few websites on the screen, a couple packs of cigarettes and about 100 2-liter bottles of Dr. Pepper, then later beer as I got...

    Soft "De-coking" of the top end...

    I'm curious if anyone's come up with a method of doing a soft de-coke on the top end - you know, something like a metered fog of B12 or Seafoam at idle for a few minutes every couple of weeks to gradually eat away at the horror show most of us are certainly going to find in there. I'd love...

    Greetings from a new Pasta-diesel owner

    Hello everyone, and I'm glad to have found a pretty specific group and not just the general Ram forums. I've recently acquired my 2016 Lone Star - it has 107k on it, 1k of it came from me in the last 7 weeks or so. If my username or avatar seems familiar to anyone here, I used to be fairly...
