Does anyone on the board have the TSB for the fast idle on a 07 Dodge 2500, 5.9?

 

I dont have a TSB, but the invoice I got after it was done on my truck last November has RRT 06-053...

 

what does the dealer charge for turning down the idle on the truck?

 

For turning it down?? You mean to enable the idle adjustment? Was 50 bucks, and entirely worth it...

 

If you take it to the dealer you bought from they shouldn't charge you anything. My dealer pulled my truck into the service bay, grabbed a tech with a scanner and went over all the menu options with me.
It included
DT running lights
How long the headlights stay on after I exit the vehicle
How long the dome light stay on after I unlock and enter the vehicle
Horn chirp when locking the door
Sequence of unlocking the doors
Headlights come on when windshield wipers are turned on
How long the acc stay on after the key is removed
High idle feature with cruise control

And many other features that I can't remember now.

 

I never got the red carpet treatment, just read the owners manual for the most part. this is really the first new truck for me.
i do notice that the rpm's is high at about 8k
so what is yours setting at now?

 

You can't turn the idle down from 750 rpms. The sticker on the drivers side of the motor on the valve cover states that is the idle rpms. You can only turn up the idle via the cruise control if it is enabled on your truck. If it's automatic it's a simple dealer turn on with a scanner. If it's a manual it requires a little more than that.

HTH

 

thanks for the information, I do not need to turn it up any. right now it seems to high at times it can take off by it self just letting out the clutch with out pushing on the gas pedal. it has been ten years since i drove a standard trans.

 

I have drove my fair share of diesel pickups with a manual transmission and everyone of them I could literally dump the clutch and it would not die. That's the power and torque of a diesel!!! I drove the 03 in my sig and it's a manual and I never had to give it the gas to take off. Even with 14 bales of hay I didn't have to baby it to get it moving, I just dropped it in first gear and let out and off we went!! I normally took off in 2nd gear as it was a six speed. Same goes for the 01 in my sig. No babying to get these trucks moving.

 

How do you set the idle up with the 5.9 auto, using the cruise?

 

I'd be worried if my truck didn't do that. I don't recomend it but I can put the truck in low gear hold the brake,relase the clutch without ever taking my foot off of the brake or giving it fuel and it will sit in place and turn the tires. These trucks wanna go and will idle themselves up to keep from stalling. I wouldn't want it any other way!

 

Thanks guys

 

Are there any features like the high idle avalible for a 2005 model?

 

yes there is

 

how do I go about finding out about them. I was at the dealer and he had no clue what I was talking about.
