    Mopar releases Viper PCM Code to Arrow and Arrington

    Something I've always wondered. I assumed there were just more tuners looking for the answer/greater demand for the product driving this. You'd think it would be another good reason for us to consider buying a gen 4or5!

    Cracked Oil Pan

    No experience with this, but non-standard gasket? Studs not screwed in all the way? Or holes not tapped deep enough?

    First crashed Gen V on public roads?

    I'm sure many head on collisions and related deaths/injuries have been prevented by these cables. This accident could have easily injured/killed others if the Viper had crossed over.

    RAM SRT-10 engine rebuild

    Great pictures. Did the driver report low oil pressure, for how long? Was the engine noisy? In your opinion, what caused the damage?

    Shredded Pulley

    The pulley on our '97 failed on the day I picked up the car, November '07. I noticed the power steering felt like the belt slipped a little as I was driving off from the plate agency. The owner had driven it there. Drove home about 60 miles cautiously (first Viper!), gave my wife the keys, she...

    I HATE LED LIGHTS...designers, please stop the insanity!!

    I agree, and I realize they're here to stay. How about trying to make the taillamps (I'm thinking of the '11 Charger) look more like regular lamps. The rear of that car is way too bright, makes me think the brake lamps are always on. Go with the advantages of the lamp, not the gimmicky look!

    What are you all hauling your Viper with?

    Ok, I just found my Durango catalog, so get this, Max towing capacity is 8,950 lbs! This is 2wd, with Hemi, tow package, and optional 3.91 gear. And don't forget the Chrysler Aspen, specs identical to Durango, and comes standard with 3.91 gear, when ordered with Hemi, and tow package, might...

    What are you all hauling your Viper with?

    I think it boils down to how often you tow. There's no reason to live with a giant dually diesel truck on a daily basis if you only towing a few times/year. I've towed with 8 different vehicles, and everyone's right, with a dually you won't know the trailer's back there. Currently doing most of...

    Dakota rim as a spare tire???

    I've often wondered the same thing. first gen Durangos came with 16x8 rims. Durango r/t came with 17s. Would either of these work as a "winter wheel" or even as a "roll around set" when your viper wheels were off getting polished, repaired, or new tires mounted? I'm thinking gen 1 or 2?

    can't program 2nd remote

    Only got one remote when we purchased our '97 GTS. Dealer sold us a smaller one, different part no. I guess a replacement part? Followed programming info on the web, and am able to program either but not both! What am I doing wrong?
