It set a trouble code today, P0016 (Crankshaft position-camshaft positino correlation bank 1 sensor A, and P000B (Exhaust B camshaft position slow response bank 1). Sounds like the beginning of trouble with the variable valve timing feature. Anyone familiar with this? Thanks in advance. "IF YOU'RE UNDER CONTROL, YOU AIN'T GOING FAST ENOUGH."

When is the last time you changed the oil? Did you put the proper weight oil in? Dirty oil or the improper weight will do that.

Yesterday afternoon, after about 30 miles in several trips, check engine light goes out on start-up, engine performance back to normal. If this is anything like the electrical/computer monstrosities at work, they just don't "fix themselves."

My 2003 hemi ram 1500 (88,000 miles) will do that from time to time. It will be hard to start and then run very rough for a few seconds. Then all is good and the check engine light comes on but after a few more starts it goes off.

I'd trade it in now, and thus don't worry about all the electronics going haywire. Theres killer deals to be had on 2014 rams now.
