    Hopefully a simple help question

    Solved...for future reference if anyone else has this problem, disconnect and reconnect the battery to fix it

    Hopefully a simple help question

    Drat....I thought it was more than just not enough juice....charged fully, and zilch....could it be a fuse? They look OK, but they are mostly these weird square fuses that could be blown and I wouldn't know it? As I see it, my next step is to try a few key fuses. If that doesn't work, then...

    Hopefully a simple help question

    I am in the process of fully charging now, and hopefully that is all it will take. It may be that the trickle charger ("smart" sensing type) failed as it seemed properly connected and the full size charger connected and did something without a problem (lights, radio, etc). It is concerning to...

    Hopefully a simple help question

    Well, preparing to get my 2008 out of hibernation, i come to find that my trickle charger lost contact and the battery is dead...OK, I put the charger on and give it a whirl. I get an anemic crank or 2, and then nothing. It seems like something blew (like a fuse), but on quick inspection the...

    Snakeoyl/K&N or green for 2008?

    I think I will...more for the nondisposable filter aspect, than anything else. It seems nobody has actually experienced a CEL/Code from what I have read. It stands to reason that the variance between stock and smooth tubes would be too small to create a problem. I think the tech that made the...

    Of course, you do realize that what it looks like to the eye when opened up may mean absolutely nothing.

    Snakeoyl/K&N or green for 2008?

    Anyone actually get a code from 2 simple rubber tubes 10 inches long?? I find that very hard to believe.

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    Here is some more news...it is debatable as to whether Diesel smells, or is noisy, however, other than biodiesel, the fuel is a petrol/oil product, and is on par with regular gasoline on price. Mileage per HP is also close to gasoline. I am not saying that it should be disregarded, just that...

    royal purple eng oil in 08?

    That "demonstration" con has been around for years. Every engine oil, or oil additive salesperson has done that smoke and mirror bit in one form or another. Meaningless drivel designed to extract the cash from your wallet, not get a truly superior product to market.

    New Stereo Head Unit Possible n 2008 Viper?

    The factory Nav/CD/Stereo/Sirius unit is the Alpine RB1. Later versions are modifiable to add an ipod interface that is easily wired to a port in the center armrest compartment. On ebay, you can get them for 700 or so (complete). Brand new they run 1700 with everything. The install is very...

    Satellite Radio ?

    Thanks, that is the answer I was looking for and suspected. Is it secured in place at all? Does it need to be by way of rattling or noise if it isn't?

    Satellite Radio ?

    Where do you put the receiver module?? Nobody seems to have an answer to this question.

    I think it is a British magazine from last month...maybe Top Gear?

    Remove plastic intake baffle on 08?

    I will take a closer look..however, you say that the ducting is routed via the hood structure, if so, the common final pathway is still the scoop and the baffle attached to it. If that is the case, removing the baffle could potentially increase airflow BOTH from the ducted air/grill, and the...

    Remove plastic intake baffle on 08?

    Normally most of the intake air is routed from low on the front grill to the filter/air-box/intake as was described earlier. However, as I look closely at the set-up on my 08, the scoop is THE ONLY access for air input to the airbox containing the filter and then leading to the intake. In this...

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    I know it can be done, just not exactly how. where does the receiver go? How is it secured/mounted? If it is doable via the dash, then I may go for it. If it requires routing to the underseat position, or trunk, or any drilling, then I will not.

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    The other threads on the subject are not clear. One says that the receiver is placed on top of the RB1 unit (I don't have much confidence with that idea), another says it is under the passenger seat. Can anyone clarify?

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    Bump...has anybody installed a sirius receiver? I could use some help figuring out how to do this without tearing things apart.

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    More specifically, where would the Sirius receiver be placed, and the antennae?

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    Nobody knows about adding a sirius receiver?

    Opinions on this RB1 on ebay?

    I just added an RB1 myself...great fit, super easy install. However, I am considering adding a sirius receiver, but don't see an easy way of doing that. This is for an 08 convertible (not the coupe, I understand the receiver is under the seat in the coupe but not the convertible). ANybody know...

    pulled the trigger 04 to 08

    Well, I did it. Just got my venom red 08 in place of a silver 04. First impressions? Laser sharpness limited by wheel spin everywhere. Something like the 04 being a large portion of a favorite food and the 08 being twice as much. More to come.

    ZR1 FORUMS ARE

    An airplane wing? Only if GM intended it to be a aerial star. Agreed regarding the ACR...but that is not the bulk of the audience here.

    ZR1 FORUMS ARE

    "Road course"...for most owners, like myself, this is a rarity. Regular day to day street driving is where we enjoy our vehicles most. Seat of the pants performance rules on this playground. Honestly, I would love a ZR1, and am contemplating a change from my 03 srt10 this summer. The decision...
