I have only put about 300 miles on it now in the last 2 years and 3 months. She always starts (under its own power or with a jump start), but vehicles dont like sitting for that long. Its really... -

Yesterday... Jump Started it, I guess the battery tender clamp I had on it wasnt making a good connection. Drove it above 60 miles to pick up a Mahogany dining room table I found on FaceBook...

Was having an issue with my front wipers coming on when the car starts and also spraying windshield washer fluid on the TB. Thought maybe a dodgy multifunction switch. Popped a new one in and...

Replaced the oil pressure sensor. As usual, replacing the old part was straightforward despite having to do it blind and in a tight location (in between the intake manifold and the firewall). The...

Ok, the truck is booked in with a local heavy duty mechanic. Great guy, by the way. Swinging by the dealer parts tomorrow for a new hub just in case. While the dealer wants to absolve them of...

Its still in the shop sitting (lucky to have shop room and a surplus of vehicles) it was soaked with pb blaster. I am thinking of using some version of a large puller, whether a 3 jaw or even a...

Yeah, this Ram is a pain. I remember similar but not as severe when working on my 2011 Ram 1500. We do get heavy potash on the roads in the winter but we just don't have the humidity like you...

Wow.
Pulled the connector on the oil pressure sensor and, sure enough, it is oil wet so the sensor is leaking. This may also help explain the minor oil leak I have been trying to track down. -

I finished up the brakes on our new to us 2020 5th gen Ram 1500. I bled 1.5 litres of brake fluid through it, greased the slide pins, popped the rotors, antiseize on the hubs and a little grease...

xavierny25 reacted to Mooseman's post in the thread 205k miles. Transmission still good. Any suggestions to keep it that way? with Like.
Maybe the big thing is to tune the TCC to lock up at 100% instead of slipping and sliding up to it. Cuts down on wear on the clutch and heat. You can also get valve body kits to do it too.
