2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 oil

Many BSR complaints such as loose trim, can be serviced using the MoparParts BSR Noise Reduction Kit. This
kit contains various tapes including foam, flock and anti-squeak used to eliminate noises caused by metal, plastic
and vinyl components. Long life lubricants and greases can also be used on avariety of components. Refer to the
Buzz, Squeak & Rattle Kit table for material contents and usage.

PLASTIC BODY PANEL REPAIR
There are many different types of plastics used in today’s automotive environment. We group plastics in three dif-
ferent categories: Rigid, Semi-Rigid, and Flexible. Any of these plastics may require the use of an adhesion pro-
moter for repair. These types of plastic are used extensively on DaimlerChrysler Motors vehicles. Always follow
repair material manufacturer’s plastic identification and repair procedures.

PANEL SECTIONING
If it is required to section a large panel for a plastic
repair, it will be necessary to reinforce the panel. To
bond two plastic panels together, a reinforcement
must overlap both panels. The panels must be “V’d” at
a 20 degree angle. The area to be reinforced should
be washed, then sanded. Be sure to wipe off any
excess soap and water when finished. Lightly sand or
abrade the plastic with an abrasive pad or sandpaper.
Blow off any dust with compressed air or wipe with a
clean dry rag.
When bonding plastic panels, follow repair material
manufacturers recommendations. Be sure that enough
adhesive has been applied to allow squeeze out and
to fill the full bond line. Once the pieces have been
brought together, do not move them until the adhesive
is cured. The assembly can be held together with
clamps, rivets, etc. A faster cure can be obtained by heating with a heat lamp or heat gun. After the parts have been
bonded and have had time to cure, rough sand the seam and apply the final adhesive filler to the area being
repaired. Smooth the filler with a spreader, wooden tongue depressor, or squeegee. For fine texturing, a small
amount of water can be applied to the filler surface while smoothing. The cured filler can be sanded as necessary
and, as a final step, cleanup can be done with soapy water. Wipe the surface clean with a dry cloth allowing time
for the panel to dry before moving on with the repair.

VISUAL INSPECTION
Composite materials can mask the severity of an acci-
dent. Adhesive bond lines, interior structure of the
doors, and steel structures need to be inspected care-
fully to get a true damage assessment. Close inspec-
tion may require partial removal of interior trim or inner
panels.
Identify the type of repair: Puncture or Crack - Dam-
age that has penetrated completely through the panel.
Damage is confined to one general area; a panel sec-
tion is not required. However, a backer panel, open
fiberglass tape, or matted material must be bonded
from behind.
PANEL SURFACE PREPARATION
If a body panel has been punctured, cracked, or crushed, the damaged area must be removed from the panel to
achieve a successful repair. All spider web cracks leading away from a damaged area must be stopped or removed.
To stop a running crack in a panel, drill a 6 mm (0.250 in.) hole at the end of the crack farthest away from the
damage. If spider web cracks can not be stopped, the panel would require replacement. The surfaces around the
damaged area should be stripped of paint and freed from wax and oil. Scuff surfaces around repair area with 360
grit wet/dry sandpaper, or equivalent, to assure adhesion of repair materials.
PATCHING PANELS
A panel that has extensive puncture type damage can
be repaired by cutting out the damaged material. Use
a suitable reciprocating saw or cut off wheel to remove
the section of the panel that is damaged. The piece
cut out can be used as a template to shape the new
patch. It is not necessary to have access to the back
of the panel to install a patch. Bevel edges of cutout
at 20 degrees to expose a larger bonding area on the
outer side. This will allow for an increased reinforce-
ment areas.

DESCRIPTION
If the painted metal surface of a vehicle becomes scratched or chipped, it should be touched-up as soon as pos-
sible to avoid corrosion.
WARNING: Use an OSHA approved respirator and safety glasses when sprayingpaint or solvents in a con-
fined area. Failure to follow this warning may result in possible personalinjury or death.
When repairing painted metal surfaces, for best results, use MOPAR
Scratch Filler/Primer, Touch-Up Paints and
Clear Top Coat (Refer to VEHICLE DATA/VEHICLE INFORMATION/BODY CODE PLATE - DESCRIPTION) for
Body Code Plate information.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
PA I N T T O U C H - U P
1. Scrape any loose paint and corrosion from inside the scratch or chip.
WARNING: Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum or alcohol–based cleaning solvents. Failure to fol-
low this warning can result in possible personal injury or death.
2. Clean affected area with MOPAR
Tar/Road Oil Remover or equivalent, and allow to dry.
3. Fill the inside of the scratch or chip with a coat of filler/primer. Do notoverlap primer onto good surface finish.
The applicator brush should be wet enough to puddle-fill the scratch or chip without running. Do not stroke brush
applicator on body surface. Allow the filler/primer to dry hard.
4. Cover the filler/primer with color touch-up paint. Do not overlap touch-up color onto the original color coat around
the scratch or chip. Butt the new color to the original color, if possible. Do not stroke applicator brush on body
surface. Allow touch-up paint to dry hard.
5. On vehicles without clearcoat, the touch-up color can be lightly finesse sanded (1500 grit) and polished with
rubbing compound.
6. On vehicles with clearcoat, apply clear top coat to touch-up paint with the same technique as described in Step
4. Allow clear top coat to dry hard. If desired, the clearcoat can be lightlyfinesse sanded (1500 grit) and polished
with rubbing compound.
