Just picked up TRX and its smoking when i got home

I know! We need to stop being so picky 🙄
I had a 720s I sold in November because I moved to the woods in the middle of nowhere.

it made a high pitched whining noise. Took it in twice. Mclaren just said they just do that. I forgot about it because the car was fucking magical.
 
I have a 2015 2500 Dodge with a hemi it was making that same noise it ended up being Two broken bolts on the manifold. I replace the manifold because it was warped and the noise went completely away.
 
Same with my Demon... this is ambient 70 degrees in the garage but when it’s outside and really cold it’s louder.
That sounds like a manifold leak but then it’s a video. Not the same as being right there. Not uncommon for manifolds to leak when cold and then seal up as the engine heats but that’s on older vehicles. Shouldn't have the manifold leaking on a new car.
 
Dealer offered me a mini van for a loaner. I told them to keep it. Gonna drive this beauty around till its fixed.
I can’t tell if you are joking about the minivan or not and I kinda like it better that way

I would’ve taken the minivan. One less loaner they have and I would’ve done some launches in it lol. My Buddy night a 2020 ram, had side kind of issue that they had it in shop for 3 months and he had to drive a mini van loaner. Ram wound up refunding him 3 months payments
 
I will ask the dealer. Let the games begins

Bingo. Let them keep it until it is fixed and they will refund you. I got a month when my Hellcat was stuck for a month

Maybe we need to start a "loaner of the month" thread 😉 here's my 2017 Rebel the dealership loaned me while we wait for front diff parts.

I just picked up my TRX tonight and drove about 30 miles home. About 5 miles from home Hit the throttle at 75 percent just once. After that my heat stopped working, only cold air blowing and motor fan sounded like it was running overtime. When i pulled up there was light smoke coming from engine. It smoked for a good 10 mins. Did i damage it or just breakin? Kinda nervous on this one
Definitely not a good look for RAM.
Is that coming or going back to dealership?
Sounds like a coolant line came off. That would explain the loss of heat and the smoke/steam.
that happened on my daughters new 1500. No coolant at all was in engine and hose was off back of engine! They tightened the hose n sent her home. Engine seized next day!! That was in 6 cyl.
