Heating issues

Asked by LauraKerr Jan 18, 2019 at 09:29 PM about the 2008 Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2008 dodge ram 4x4 1500 hemi 5.7 that
doesn't like to give heat. Morning I get just about
nothing(20mins of idle still a full windshield of
snow), coffee break I can get intermittent bursts,
everything drive I can get full heat but it will blow
cold after stopping at intersections. The air will
deflect between all vents, nice and chilly of course,
and comes in strong or weak. Any ideas?

Sounds like trapped air/low coolant .fill and bleed replace radiator cap may be pulling air in system on cool down.
