| 2005 Dodge Ram pickup 3500 - Has anyone else had problems with water in the diesel? Did you replace injectors and if so, was it under warranty or did you pay repairs? | |

No I have not found a solution. I have not taken to a dealer yet. I have about 4800 miles on mine and it started around 3000 miles. I have talked to my brother who is in school to be a mechanic and he has not heard of this problem and is shocked that this happened to a Diesel. Let me know what you find out. Thanks for the input.

Now that it's cold, the grid heater (which warms the intake air before it reaches the cylinder) will cycle for three minutes after the engine is started to allow better combustion and less smoke. You'll experience this all winter, nothing to worry about. kcram - Pickups Host |

Replying to: kcram (Nov 02, 2006 10:52 pm) Yup, I second that. Perfectly normal, both of our 06 Ram 3500 Cummins do it now that its cold out. They do it on initial start up and if its really cold out they will do it even if they have only been shut off for 5 minutes and restarted. Nothing to worry about, enjoy your truck! |

Replying to: kcram (Nov 15, 2006 8:59 pm) Yup, we have 2 of them, plus a 1997 F-250 Powerstroke. Three diesel trucks is hard on the wallet, lol. Actually the Rams have been great, the Powerstroke has a mind of its own and a hold on the wallet, it only sticks around because we own it for very cheap $$$. We didn't intend on buying the 2 Rams, just the one I ordered, but a deal that was too good to pass up and a lot of money offered for hubby's aging V10 changed our minds. The $$$ saved on fuel is enough to pay for his Cummins, that V10 was killing us and we were killing it with the trailers we pull. I think last year he spent almost $10k in gas on that V10.  Below is a link to a picture of the 2 beasts, his is the red one, mine is black. Trucks
