Q: the tranny kicks down the hemi revs up and at 3700 it does it again. bouncing between 3500 and 3900. so i figure i can limp to my appointment as long as i keep my foot out of it but i decide to call the service mangler at the stealership. i share some of my best golf words with him. finish the customer call and return to the truck. try the 3 keyclicks no codes! do the accelerator fly-by-wire throttle reset. truck runs great. i find a good chunk of road and the hemi bolts like a hemi should. so i call the mangler back and tell him i have fixed the problem. i think he was still pissed that i had questioned his parents marital status at the time of his birth. now that you have read all this youre probably waiting for a punchline better than so bobs your uncle! right sorry but the only punchline is that this highly qualified and factory trained service manager at a five star dealer had never heard of the accelerator reset gimmick. i guess the moral of this loooooong story is to do this gimmick whenever you are forced to turn your d over to a service dummy. anybody got any ideas about this problem guess i need to find another joint to do the in-warranty work. seems like the sm might be connected........ . 222 301706 3hbt4qfgaa70u1@individual.net i have the leer 100 qc no longer manufactured very nice looking cap but with a horrible gasket system on the rear window. replaced three times poor design. the 100xl looks like its replacement. ski .

if your transmission has bands have them checked. they are adjusted by torque and a feeler gauge usually accessible from the lower valve body. say what .

lol i could do without that type of luck!!! -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving you are one luck dude. i had until tonight a 2001 1/2 ton ram qc. i hit #1 a telephone pole dead center #2 a culvert which flipped me on my drivers side #3 another culvert while sideways slid across a driveway and #4 a pine tree. after the truck stopped then and only then did the airbags pop. .

told me that the intermediate steering shaft was loose. price tag was 334.63 + tax. my question is this a difficult part to replace not especially... just a little tight to work in but its basically a pinch bolt down on the steering box and one at the top of the intermediate shaft/bottom of the steering column. no special tools are needed just a good set of socket extensions and probably a universal joint. check either borgeson of flaming river - two companies that make much better-quality aftermarket shafts than the stocker its all in the quality of the joints/needle bearings. .

greetings -- ive a 2001 dodge ram 2500 cummins with 52000 miles and i have had no a/c for about a month. the compressor cycles on and off every 6 seconds or so so i figured i lost some r13a coolant. bought a small 12oz can recharge kit recharged as directed on the only connector the can would connect to not the line that is leaking which is the line running high in the engine compartment on the passenger side next to the fender that fitting was too big. 1 did i refill at the wrong line i refilled at the fitting behind the air filter which was the only fitting which was small enough to accept the fitting on the refill can. 2 after refilling i immediately got cold ac but when i turned the engine off i heard a hissing. the leak sounds to be coming from under the air filter where the assumed high pressure line runs to the dryer from the front of the truck. a lot of water droplets had accumulated on that line and there was a puddle inside under the air filter. i couldnt feel gas escaping but the hiss was definitely coming from under the air filter from the line thats covered with aluminum foil. id like to know if thats the high or low pressure line. nothing blew up so i assume i filled at the right port. 3 i assume ill have no ac in the morning what with the leak -- or is there perhaps an overflow fitting under the air cleaner which will release enough refrigerant until the system is stabilized rather i bet the metal line is pinholed underneath the aluminum foil and dumdum that encapsulates the line under the air filter. pisses me off ive got a 1980 mercedes 240d which still blows cold after 26 years. 4 assuming that line is holed and assuming that line is the high-pressure line ill probably have to take it to a shop to be replaced the system evacuated and tested for leaks and recharged. i figure around $200. is this common for that metal line to hole itself i dont do any off-roading and just drive on flat paved roads. why would an aluminum pipe like that get a hole is there another bridge-connector under the air filter and is it possible that connection is leaking thanks for any info regarding this matter. please respond to ramacnospamopsimath.org and replace the nospam with @ thanks again. -k .

took my 04 durango hemi limited into the stealership to have them address 3 issues 1. a/c tsb blows hot when engine warm 2. exhaust drone tsb and 3. hesitation but never stalling when turning after a dead stop. they claim they 1. re-flashed pcm and ordered parts for the tsb parts on b/o no clue as to delivery. 2. ordered parts for exhaust drone tsb parts on b/o again clueless. 3. cleaned throttle body per some tsb supposed to be necessary only after 50k miles. my d has about 11k miles so i pick up the truck and it feels weird. none of the hemi guts. dismissing the mental picture of half a ham sandwich in my throttle body i figure maybe the flash requires the pcm to learn some new sensor settings so i hit the highway bound for my next call. accelerating up the on-ramp pedal to the metal im trying to slide into a spot between a couple of semis and as the throttle hits 3700rpm its like the engine isnt running. tach is oscillating between about 3500 and 4000rpm but im not accelerating so i steer onto the shoulder to avoid becoming a hood ornament for a kenworth. as i reduce throttle i feel things return to normal about 3500rpm. since the next exit is 11 miles away and im reluctant to waste a few hours getting towed i wait for a nice big hole to merge into the slow lane. things seem fine again so as i get near that exit i punch it. the tranny kicks down the hemi revs up and at 3700 it does it again. bouncing between 3500 and 3900. so i figure i can limp to my appointment as long as i keep my foot out of it but i decide to call the service mangler at the stealership. i share some of my best golf words with him. finish the customer call and return to the truck. try the 3 keyclicks no codes! do the accelerator fly-by-wire throttle reset. truck runs great. i find a good chunk of road and the hemi bolts like a hemi should. so i call the mangler back and tell him i have fixed the problem. i think he was still pissed that i had questioned his parents marital status at the time of his birth. now that you have read all this youre probably waiting for a punchline better than so bobs your uncle! right sorry but the only punchline is that this highly qualified and factory trained service manager at a five star dealer had never heard of the accelerator reset gimmick. i guess the moral of this loooooong story is to do this gimmick whenever you are forced to turn your d over to a service dummy. anybody got any ideas about this problem guess i need to find another joint to do the in-warranty work. seems like the sm might be connected........ tis better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open ones mouth and remove all doubt mark twain .
