I see Geno's has a Haynes service manual that goes up to the 2005 model. Has anyone seen a copy yet to know if it's got good info for doing your own service? I'm not thinking major over hauls, just looking for something to know I'm doing the regular maintenance OK, and to know more if I ever have to take it in to the dealer for repairs. Never had a truck this nice before, don't want to mess it up!

 

05 ram manual is out there for download.

 

I just got mine from Geno's yesterday. I haven't really had a chance to read through it very thoroughly yet. For $15.95 it is probably worth going ahead to get it.

It has quite a bit of info in it, but remember it applies to gassers as well as diesel for the 3rd gen trucks from 02-05. Has a lot of pictures and diagrams that look like they may come in handy later.

My vote is to get it. Most of the questions you have about the truck can probably be answered here on DTR though. Congrats on your new truck, and even though you have been on a few months....Welcome.

 

Yes, it's good. It will fit the bill for what you described.
Cheers
Mike

Anyone know of a "Cummins Only" manual?

 

Thanks for the inputs, I just ordered the manual. Figure if it says even one trip to the dealer it will pay for itself 3 or 4 times.
