I have a 07 ram 1500 3.7 L with 38000 miles and within the past 1000 miles i have gotten replaced the water pump, rear diff, and now transmission (all under unlimited warranty thank God) . I baby the hell outta my truck, whats going on ? anyone has had probs like this ?? i replaced the gear oil on the diff with royal purple and i am guaranteed thatys not the prob always used amsoil or royal purple for my SRT 4 ........comments ? ? ? thanx

 

I have had NO problems whatsoever on my '04 except for a blown shock back when my suspension was stock. Did it off road while hog huntin', wasn't overly hard on it, but even though I did it off road, they replaced it under warranty.

Just curious, did you replace the transmission fluid at 30,000 miles like you were supposed to?

 

i know nothing about a 3.7 but i will say from knowing a guy that has one , he has had some of these problems aswell . only thing i can think of is the engine is to small to be luggin around a heavy truck and some crap is going south , just my my 2 cents

 

Hear, hear! I still can't believe anyone puts a six in a full-size truck.

 

My 08 manual calls for 60K tranny fluid changes.

 

well damn, my '04 manual calls for a change at 30k, and it is the same transmission, is it not?

 

I think the six has a different tranny don't it?

 

What was wrong w/ the differential? Did it have the 3.92's and anti-slip rear? Which tranny do you have auto or manual? The water pump is weird, maybe that was just a fluke.

 

Yeah, Dodge was just WRONG for putting a v6 is nuch a heavy truck. God forbid if you ever need to use it as a truck for real and need to haul anything or pull

 

yeah i should have gotten the diesel like i wanted and swallow the extra 8 grand lol....but now my problem is that Dodgeis BSing me around just got back from vacation and truck STILL not done they said that tranny is in backorder and wont be in till June 3rd............oh and its a automatic and yes all services done when stated on maunal
