  1. (Ram) P2183 ECT sensor 2 cold weather with block heater

    As previously stated the CEL did not go away on its own and I had already replaced the temp sensor on the water pump before trying to clear codes. Either the temp sensor on the water pump being replaced OR the coolant being topped off allowed the code regarding a bad temp sensor to be cleared...
  2. (Ram) P2183 ECT sensor 2 cold weather with block heater

    Can you help me out with some links or documentation? Given I can't find much about that, except one random thread somewhere, it would probably benefit anybody else looking for this.
  3. (Ram) P2183 ECT sensor 2 cold weather with block heater

    I can't find a sensor in the coolant tank, the only sensor information I can find online relates to the water pump sensor. Yesterday I topped it off, after 280ish miles it still had the CEL but I guess I didn't try to clear the CEL before the next step was taken. I don't see any oil in coolant...
  4. (Ram) P2183 ECT sensor 2 cold weather with block heater

    2022 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel This morning the truck would not remote start, push button started fine but with CEL for P2183. It was 10F parked outside with wind-chill at 8F, block heater plugged in, but I haven't yet installed the winter grill cover. Engine coolant tank is a bit low but not at all...

    Oh man, they look good but I can't rationalize spending twice as much when I already spend over $700 just on oil. Hopefully I don't regret it, but one of those had a .7 saps and the castrol had like 1.2 i think, I'll just send it and hopefully the dpf system makes it to when I get a promotion...

    That was an awesome explanation thank you. Could you list the top couple low SAPS oils you'd recommend? Looked like there was a couple on this thread but they definitely get lost in the sauce. I'm not sure how the oil analysis deals work but I could test some oils if anyone is curious, those...
  7. EcoDiesel UOA (Oil Analysis) Results Thread

    DPF longevity meaning the DPF system will actually die sooner or just itll eat DEF faster? Are we talking itll die at 200k miles or itll die at 100k miles because of the full SAPS? Would the DEF/SCR cleaner negate any ill effects of the high SAPS motor oil? Fuel additives just like the hot...
  8. EcoDiesel UOA (Oil Analysis) Results Thread

    This quote thing is confusing me but hopefully this posts right. So the castrol edge says it has "Ash, Sulphated ASTM D874 % w t 1.2" so would that be low ash and if its higher ash, as I understand that effects (affects?) the dpf system, would the long drives not negate that negative? I have...

    I guess also, cheaper trust worthy fuel and oil filters, ecoguard on amazon seem decent enough for fuel but my understanding is the mopar fuel filter is the only good option? docs diesel is considered poor quality right? I really don't know anything diesel related so yea, sick
  10. EcoDiesel UOA (Oil Analysis) Results Thread

    Just to clarify- Castrol edge euro 5w-40 A3/B4 with the API SP rating is one of the better/best oils, seemingly cheaper options that still meet the requirements? It's at my local Walmart for $27/gal. My understanding is the SN/SN+ is exceeded by API SP? CJ/CK type oils like T6 are an issue for...
