    Engine Revs

    You might want to do a search on "Idle Hang". Seems to be a few different things that can cause this. My '97 GTS did it, I did fixed it by buying an '02.

    Getting Ready to do Brakes/What's Best?

    Re: Getting Ready to do Brakes/What\'s Best? Sorry for hijacking your post, Jeff… I just picked up a brand new 02 Graphite GTS (currently less than 80 miles) and want to change the brake pads (front and rear) out to the EBC Greens. Have a few questions: 1. Can someone describe the process...

    Key Fob

    I picked up a new FOB today and programed the old and new FOBs using the instructions above. Worked like a charm. Only hard part was getting my big a$$ down under the drivers side dash. The new fob is smaller and sleeker than the old (97) one, looks a little more up to date.

    Computer reset question

    OK I am looking for the easy way out... Will disconnecting the wire red wire at the "Jump Start" post reset the computer or do I have to remove the rear wheel and do it at the battery?

    Who sells the factory shift knob?

    I need a new factory "Pistol" grip shift knob for a 97 GTS. Any of the forum supporting venders have these? Thanks, Steve

    Key Fob

    I have the same problem, one works one does not. I tried a new battery then holding both buttons down, still no dice. I have a new FOB coming Monday and will try to program it per the instructions above. Jeff, thanks for posting them.

    Red Wax any good?

    I just purchased some of this stuff for the same reason. It came with a "lipstick" looking dispenser to fill in the heavy scratches. I will try it out on Monday and let you know how it does. Steve

    Picked up 97 GTS and have a question for DFW guys

    Thanks for the heads up on the Viper meet, unfortunately I will be out of town this weekend. Is this a weekly/monthly meet? Anyone have any experience with Allen Samuel Dodge in North Richland Hills? Are there any non Dodge mechanics around that do good Viper work? MadMaxx, you should see the...

    Picked up 97 GTS and have a question for DFW guys

    I picked up my “new” 97 Red GTS last Friday. Even though it only has 5400 miles on it and it seems to be perfect (other than the high/hanging idle that seems to plague the random snake) I am thinking about having some preventive maintenance done. Nothing big, just belts, hoses, fluids etc...

    Help with ??s on 97 GTS

    Great tips. I will be making a list from this thread and go over the car the best I can. I will be able to bring the car home for the day so I should be able to check on the overheating issue. Maybe tomorrow it will stop raining and I can finally take a look.

    Help with ??s on 97 GTS

    Kurt, Thanks for the the brake caliper tip. I assume that "yellowing" of the letters indicates high temp? The price does sound good, the owner is an older man that is trading in a '02 SC430, an 01 Tahoe (23,000 miles and it looked brand new) and a S class Mercedes. The Tahoe is the only thing...

    I will be looking at a Red (no stripes) 97 GTS on Monday. The car is being sold to a friend who runs a local Chevy dealership. The car has 5,500 miles, the price will be $45,000 and is bone stock. I will be checking the VIN at the local Dodge house for recalls. I have searched the forum but...

    Price of Vipers taking a dip?

    TobyT, You and I have the same plan.I am going to hold out until the fall. There are two local dealers with several 2001 and 2002 GTS Vipers on the showroom floor. The price right now is $68,899 +ttl. They have been advertising this price for months. Once the new model comes out the deals may...

    Viper Problem and Prowler Question

    All Prowlers came "Fully Optioned"...other than color you have no choice to make. The correct name for the color is "Prowler Orange Pearl Coat". Perfect 2001 low miles, my rough guess is 32K to 34K. Location seems to be a big factor in price, CA and FL on the high end. Where is the car...
