    Impact to value if I get oem mods

    Yeah, 2013 striker red. Basically the launch edition of the srt haha. So you wouldn't recommend the door sils, camera, or speaker upgrade even if it's all original OEM parts installed by a dealership?

    Impact to value if I get oem mods

    Hello hello. I've got a 2013 srt viper and I've been thinking about getting a few oem additions to it but I'm concerned about how it'll impact the value of the car. Currently my car is **** stock and I'd like to keep it that way so if I get a dealer to install oem parts, I'm not sure of it'll...

    No Vipers in San Diego

    I recently moved to San Diego from Illinois, and there seems to be no Vipers here!! There are Porsches everywhere, but I've been to multiple car shows and almost no Vipers. In Illinois, I'd get together with some other viper owners and we would just cruise around. Anyone in the San Diego...

    Gen 5 battery dead within 24 to 48 hours

    I just saw this video where they mention that the owner of this viper was also having electrical issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk3EuIQtYKc at 9:15 is where they mention it. It's concerning that so many of these cars have this issue. What does it take to have Dodge take a more...

    Gen 5 battery dead within 24 to 48 hours

    Is anyone else having this issue or are there only 2 or 3 gen 5 owners (including myself) who has this issue? It's still not fixed and next time I take it in, I'll let you guys know what parts they replaced (they replaced a bunch so far including the door modules, mirror, some computers...

    Best Rim Doctor in San Diego

    The moving company used straps on my 2013 viper that damaged all four rims. They want a quote for rim repair, and I want to get the best darn rim repair place around to repair them. Does anyone know any good rim repair shops in San Diego? I'm also concerned about getting these rims...

    Keys locked in car with dead battery

    Thanks everyone! I found the positive terminal in the fuse box as mentioned. I also had to put the negative terminal on some sort of 'gray pump looking thing' because apparently the cross bar and some other black bar near the wheels don't work as grounds (hah, forgive the terminology). And...

    Dead battery

    When I put my car in hibernation, it still didn't help. The car still managed to 'wake up' the dashboard and drain the battery within 24-48 hours.

    Keys locked in car with dead battery

    So I finally found my key fob for my 2013 Viper.... they fell out of my pocket and are on the floor of the car.... but the battery is unplugged because of electrical issues my car has.... This hasn't been my week. I hear there is a set of terminals or something under the hood that I can...

    Dead battery

    I've been having the same issue. I've had the viper dealerships look at it for MONTHS in the shop and they still haven't been able to fix the issue! Did you get your issue resolved? Here is my original post: http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/673075-Gen-5-battery-dead-within-24-to-48-hours

    Gen 5 battery dead within 24 to 48 hours

    Thanks for the advice and reply’s. I just got it back from the shop again, and unfortunately it still seems to have the issue. I’ve been to the shop about 3 or four times and so far they have replaced the battery, alternator, Powertrain control module, door modules, Body Control Module (? I...

    Gen 5 battery dead within 24 to 48 hours

    Hi, I've got a 2013 Viper and the battery dies within 24 to 48 hours. It's not every time, but quite frequently after driving it around the battery will be dead when I try and get in the car in the next day or two. I'd say it happens once every two or three times I drive it around. I've...

    Thoughts on painting the underside of front bumper

    Yeah good point. Since it'll happen again, maybe wait until later to repaint it. But if I get a clear bra put on, won't I want to get it painted before I have the bra put on, so that way I don't have to re-pay for a new front clear bra when I do want to get it painted?

    Thoughts on painting the underside of front bumper

    Ok. So it sounds like getting a repaint won't hurt the value at all (even though I intend on keeping the car) and I don't need to make a request for 'factory paint' or something?

    Thoughts on painting the underside of front bumper

    I've got a 2013 Viper SRT and the underside of my front bumper is really scrapped up from the previous owner, but you can't tell unless you look under the car. I've been thinking about getting it repainted which will basically involve painting the entire front bumper. What are your...

    Downshift to brake?

    Wow. Interesting discussion. I didn't realize this would spark such a passionate debate. Yeah, for me, I was thinking about just downshifting during normal street driving while pulling up to stoplights or stop signs. I don't race, and I don't even know how to drive this car fast. Hah. The...

    Downshift to brake?

    Hey everyone, new owner of a red 2013 here and new member to the forums. I just thought I would get your opinions on downshifting to brake. I've heard online that some people feel that brakes are cheaper than a clutch so they spare their clutch and just brake using the brakes. I've...

    A Dream Realized! And now I need advice!

    Excellent! Thanks for the welcoming and good advice. That's a good point to check with the dealer and see who they use to fix rims. I'm looking for a quality job that ensures the rim looks straight from the factory. I'll be sure to go ahead and get that clear bra then. It might be awhile...

    A Dream Realized! And now I need advice!

    Hey everyone! I've been a fan for years and this is my first post! Back in October I finally realized a childhood dream and bought my first Viper! A red 2013 SRT with just under 4,000 miles on it! I call it Alduin after a dragon in a computer game (the heat shimmer coming from the vents after...
