***UPDATE***
Employed a little redneck engineering, from suggestions from a few guys
here on DTR. I gave up on getting the hose, just used cable ties and the buzz is
GONE !! Its like a different truck. I didn't know they were this quiet.
* Strapped both hydraulic lines together in about 6 places.
* Strapped both to the neg battery cable.
* No more buzz @ 2000 RPM,, HUGE REDUCTION in cab noise.
* No more cruise control fluctuation @ 2000 RPM.
* No more buzz through the go pedal.
* No thanks to the DEALER.
* MANY THANKS TO DTR AND YOUR REPLIES....

This is my sixth Dodge pick-up (or thereabouts) and it never ceases to amaze me how delaership service departments take the pleasure out of owning what is otherwise a great vehicle/power package.
The dealership that's about five minutes from me doesn't want to see me anymore and the feeling is mutual. Three trips for a wiring repair, three WEEKS (!) for a turbocharger replacement and on and on. I buy my Dodges form a dealership thats fifve hours away and their service department has done more to help me over the phone than some other places do in person.
A fish rots first fromt he head. Has anyone ever received any type of reply from DC when a complaint is made? Does anything good ever flow from DC down to the consumer post deliver?
I like the Dodge trucks but I am truly thinking of switching brands just to try and get some better warranty service!
