I have a 2009 Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab and I've recently noticed that when I go over speed bumps there is a strange sloshing fluid noise. It seems to be worse when I go over at an angle (1 tire at a time) rather than staight on. I didn't notice this until about 8k miles or so-any thoughts or anyone with similar problems.

 

Yeah me too. Took it to the dealer and they pulled out this image to explain what it is...something in the semi circular canals.

So I went to the local pharmacy; bought some allergy pills and dumped them in the gas tank. Seems to be OK now.

 

Unfortunatly that's close to what the dealership told me

Has anyone else heard this-or have any suggestions

I know it sounds weird-but it almost seems like it's coming from the gas tank??

 

I have the Quad and have never heard that but I always have the tunes jamming, I will test it out with now tunes today when I leave work and update ya!!!

 

Go fill up your fuel tank and see if it changes. I'm pretty sure it is the fuel sloshing in the tank. They don't put any baffles in the plastic tanks, so when the fuel gets to a certain level you tend to notice it. If filling it doesn't change it, see if it does it when it is near empty. No fix either way, but at least you know what it is.

 

I have an 09 QC hemi 2WD and I have noticed the sloshing sound also. I do believe that it is gas in the tank.Mine seems to be worse when the tank is 1/2 or less.It's a plastic tank,its OK just drive it.
