- Greetings viewers,
In this video I showcase common problems effecting the second generation of Dodge Ram Pickups. Second generation Ram 1500 trucks include 1994-2002 year models and come equipped with the 3.9L V6, 5.2L V8 or the 5.9L V8 engine. Trucks came in 2wd and 4wd versions, two door standard, extended and 4 door crew cab models. I've distilled my years of auto repair experience and came up with the most common issues effecting these vehicles and produced this video review. I hope you enjoy the vid and please join the discussion and add you personal experiences around this great all-around pickup truck.

This is why safety inspections on vehicles are needed in all states.Transmission problems in them,it is the person misdiagnosing problems and rebuilding them wrong.Plus not using the ATF+4 fluid which it calls for.There is also a rubber hose part in the lower transmission line with a nylon checkball in it.That nylon checkball melts plugging it up.Fix is get that checkball out drilling it and popping it out with a long 1/4 rod or #2 phillips screwdriver.The crank
sensors,they are different for an
automatic and manual. transmission.Can see it real easy,one for the manual is shorter
Thanks for posting yet another interesting video. Keep 'em commin!
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video as always. Many thumbs up. I hope you are doing well.
at todays new car prices I don't question anyone fixing up the older cars as long as they aren't rusted to pieces and parts are available. I use to see a few cracked frames on those where steering box mounts.
For sure. So sad they have begun using salt solutions on roadways up here during winter months. We never saw corrosion in the past but it’s really starting to show up and I just want to retire so I don’t have to learn how to deal with it. Haha.
@@ThecardoctorTV you need Eric O up there. He loves rust!
Good day Tim from Ontario Yrs ago we had 90 dodge, nice truck 318 engine only got a little over 500 klms to a tank of
gas. Trans went at 150,000. Wife said that it. Went to 4-3 chev.
Yes new trucks are crazy priced.
So what is prize of gas up ur way. We are at about 1.55/litre X 4,54
Thanks for now Happy Easter!
Great vid Tim. Very comprehensive display of the major issues. I agree with you on not being a Dodge guy but I also agree for the money they charge for new trucks they are pretty much poor on the quality now. Thanks for sharing and have a Happy Easter !
Always wonder what kind of truck the car doctor drives? Great vid!
I have an 03 GMC 2500HD 6.0 w/300K miles and it runs like a top! But my daily driver is a Lexus 😀
@@ThecardoctorTV you have saved yourself thousands over the years being able to fix your own cars. Plus save your n monthly car payments.
You know your a great teacher and easy watch when you got me watching videos of problems on vehicles I don’t even own 😂 would I be able to possible contact you about a misfire issue with my 09 Chevy Silverado?
Shucks that’s nice of you to say. Send me an email about the 09

@@ThecardoctorTV absolutely! And thanks sir! I will do that!
Me too! I’m a 48 year old female who drives a 2013 Tahoe, and I’ve been a subscriber for years. Fascinating stuff. I just wish I could smell tht good smell of a garage through the videos to match!😂
I have the 2000 4×4 w the v10...been a beast ..8 mpg is the my only major complaint
2500?
Yes 2500 laramie slt 6 foot box extended cab ..upgraded trans and radiator front end and brakes ..kinda like most of the stuff u did . Ryst free from south though ..230k
I bought a very similar truck brand new in 1998. 26 years and 200,000 miles later it's still my daily driver. Aside from normal wear and tear, the only real issue it had was the dash plastic crumbled and needed to be replaced. But I've maintained it properly and will continue to do so. The check engine light has never even come on. And yes, it does work, lol.
Wow, you did well. This one got driven hard and not maintained well I’m afraid.
Mines smoking after long idle and misfiring and smoking when coming to a stop. It started after towing uphill. Now doesn't run good. Cylinder 6 plug is soaked
Do you have a video for a 2009 Chevy Silverado where the transmission kinda stops and goes?
That's totally destroyed. Need complete front end rebuild. That's a big job buddy.
What could cause a 5.2 to not reach normal running temp. Mine stays cold even after running her a while
2004 mitsubishi endeavor cranks wants to strat but dies.
Biggest problem with Dodge is Dodge.
That one looks like it seen a hard life, rode hard and put away wet
Not to worry, it's only going to get worse. Stellantis is laying off from the top down.
Do you give a sympathy discount?
So worried about US auto manufacturing. Future seems bleak.
