2005 1500 ST V6 6MT do you have one?

If you do, what have you noticed in your Ram that bothers you?
To me is the transmission sound, like a rattle. Hopefully it'll be gone when I install the new exhaust.

Just got one two weeks ago. One problem I have is that it seems rough at idle. I know its a truck, but it seems rougher than it should be. Maybe, I broke it in too hard.

I have an 03 with the 5 speed. I got it used and thought that something was wrong with it because of the rough idle. I have played with it and I have had my mechanic look it over and everthing is fine. The V6 just seems to like to think it is a bigger engine

Yep, it is rough. I dont know if it is just the V6. I rode an 8V AT but I dont remember if it was rough also. Mine is too. It could be the PCM but I have not seen a TSB for it. Also, I drove my father in law's 98 Ford F150 and it seem rough too, but not as much as mine. I had the truck looked over at the dealer for the rattle and they found the heat shield was loose. I still feel a rattle. Oh well, at least we have 7/70 just in case they are wrong.
