#558 of 647 Which one is better by retman Apr 22, 2009 (3:14 pm)
I'm in the market for a used Dodge 2500 from 05 through 08. What years are better to look for than others? I'm seeing a lot of turbo soot issues and lift pump issues. Should I expect these with any year? Replies to this message: ramcharger (Apr 23, 2009 12:43 pm)

Replying to: retman (Apr 22, 2009 3:14 pm) Well it seems you have answered your own question. The newer Dodges need to be worked to keep the system clean. Not designed for a car but work. This is just my opinion. I have an 04 that I bought used just recently. It's my first diesel.. Not really happy with the milage but it pulls the trailer.
#560 of 647 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel bogs down until warm by gerry80026 May 01, 2009 (8:21 am)
I have a 2002 Dodge Ram that I just bought yesterday. This morning it fired up and about a minute later I started down our access road. When I tried to accelerate it boged down, didn't matter how much you depressed the accelerator. It would shift through the gears but very slow and more when you were going downhill. After about 5 minutes when the engine warmed up it was fine and ran like a bat outta hell. Is this a problem with the turbo?

Replying to: gerry80026 (May 01, 2009 8:21 am) ... Extremely unlikely that it was the turbo. Much more like the lift/pre pump. Replies to this message: turbodude (Jul 19, 2009 8:18 pm)

Replying to: gerry80026 (May 01, 2009 8:21 am) start with a change of the fuel filter, my 1997 only has one filter and when it gets dirty my truck will only run up to a certain rpm. dont know if it will work but it is the first thing that comes to mind and the cheapest starting point. it definitly sounds like a fuel problem. good luck
#563 of 647 surging at low speed and idle by andygh2o May 15, 2009 (7:42 pm)
2005 5.9 cummins While in park my truck will surge to rpms of 2000-2500,if the throttle is tapped, and will not stop until it is put into gear or shut off. It also does this while going down hills. I have replace the transfer pump, the pressure was low, now that I have the right fuel pressure the problem is worse. any ideas

On my Dodge 3500, when running my air conditioner, the passenger side vent air is not cool. The driver's side is cold. Any ideas why? Replies to this message: kcram (May 16, 2009 7:34 pm)
