    One Little Screw in my Run-Flat and I am out $1000 !

    Just got a screw in my rear run-flat and due to wear (I have 9000 miles on my '03 SRT-10), the guy at Discount Tire says I should replace both rears. The screw is not in the sidewall, but in the center. It should be an easy fix, if Michelin allows it. I figure I have 2-4,000 miles left. Can't...

    What happened at Jack Powell Dodge ? Mike Carrasco gone !

    Took my SRT-10 in for service to Jack Powell Chrysler Dodge in Escondido. No problems, Phil did a great job . . . but they remodeled the parts dept. and the service department and they replaced just about everyone including our Viper tech/service guy Mike Carrasco ! What's up ??

    Valve Issue - Owners with the repair post your results

    We have heard that a few cars have been repaired, can the owners with repairs post their results? Does your car perform differently (not that 25HP will make that much of a difference, but I have heard about high RPM flutter, exhaust backfiring, etc.). Did the Viper tech do a good job? Have...

    ABS Light on! Oh shucks!!!

    OK, I figured that the ABS light on the magazine car was from severe abuse. Maybe not. I drove over a speed bump at about 3 MPH and the ABS light came on and hasn't gone off. I checked the brake fluid level, even added a little DOT 4 to be sure, but this is most peculiar. I have 1400 miles on...

    Has anyone gotten the SRT-10 Sirius Satellite Radio to work?

    I noticed that the yellow owners manual addendum discussed how to extract the EIN # from the RBQ radio to enable the Sirius Satellite Radio service for the SRT-10. I followed the instructions: turn the key to accessory with the radio off, then simultaneously hit the Time and CD Eject buttons for...

    CA SRT-10 Air Conditioning?

    For all of you East coasters who have your car stored for the winter, please ignore this post. I was driving my new SRT-10 back today from Victorvile, CA in 75 degree weather and with the A/C on max, I noticed that the SRT-10 would cool the car, but it certainly wasn't cold. Yes, Andy the top...

    Just Received a Gift From D-C:

    I just received the a nice gift from D-C: A book titled: "Dodge Vipe SRT-10: The Official Story". It looks like they are sending it out gratis to all who ordered a SRT-10. It covers the Viper history from the 1989 auto show, including racing successes, and the evolution of the car up to the...

    SRT-10 on Display at MGM Grand Las Vegas, but Still No California Cars ?

    Those of you who were at VOI 5 in Las Vegas in 1999 remember the GTS coupe above the slot machines. I saw the SRT-10 yesterday above the same slots. The car looked new, unused & perfect. I wish I could have looked inside to see the VIN # & mileage, but security & cameras would have made that...

    Lift for Garage

    I bought a Cytech Doublepark 4 years ago. It works great and I moved it to my new house without a problem. As a data point, at least the Cytech Doublepark is good 4 years down the road! Get longer ramps (for more ground clearance), 36" I believe, and aluminum ramps are a hell of a lot lighter...
