Just got my new ram 1500 crewcab 4x4 , rambox ,ecodiesel
Have about 1100 miles on it.So far lovin it. I have noticed 2 things that would like to get some
feed back on.First it seems to have a lag on a quick take off ( pulling into traffic ) second I can hear the turbo as it spools down between 1500 rpm and idle.Sounds like a dry bearing. Is this normal ?? I also have a 2500 with a 24 valve cumnins so I am some what familar with diesels and turbos. I know this is a variable geometry turbo and may this is normal ?

Thanks for the feedback.I will need to figure how to veiw curent gear. As far as the tubro noise I think it may the boost pressure dumping as it returns to idle? I only hear it on decell.
