Being he has an 05 the gauges might work differently too. Mine always dings after an oil change as it takes about five seconds to build pressure. Happened like clockwork for 18 years. But normally, historically, the check gauges is the quintessential idiot light to get your eyes on the vitals. Me, I'm scanning the gauges constantly as a habit. But I'm old school.

I have a 2007, 1500 Dodge Ram 5.7 L truck and sometimes I have the check gauge light coming on while I am driving and that shut engine off in the spot, After I took key out of ignition and restart engine the light is going away and all check normal with a code reader. Anyone have any idea what cause that anomaly? Thank a lot!!!
