    Do I need new tires this year?

    You don't have to add the number of years the car has been in existence. Just look at the DOT date code (the week and year the tire was manufactured) on the sidewall of each tire. It will be a four digit number (i.e. 2008). The first two numbers represents the week (20th week of the year/52...

    04 clutch linkage problem

    F.Y.I........ This same exact clip (and linkage design) has been used on every Viper generation prior to the Gen V. I had this issue on my '96 RT/10 fifteen years ago.

    2006 Door Trim

    So just because it has the word "weld" in its name do actually think it fuses to metal?

    Dealer scratched wheels --- they'll pay, powder coat or paint black (best method?)

    Re: Dealer scratched wheels --- they'll pay, powder coat or paint black (best method? Lesson learned. Only allow specialty tire and wheel shops (Discount, etc.) to mount and balance Viper wheels. They (dealerships) usually don't have the necessary equipment to handle the wheel/tire widths...

    Replace Tire Nuts on Tire Sensors When Changing Tires?

    Yep. Wise to replace the grommet when removing the sensors. Wouldn't want the headache of finding out later that you have a leak at the sensor. You can purchase an entire grommet kit off Ebay for about half of what you'd pay at a tire shop.

    Got my Viper

    What is "MFR"? My response was intended to come across as sarcasm but the main reason in my 14 years of Viper ownership, this is first I've (and probably most of the other Viper owners who frequent this forum) ever heard of "free oil changes for life" on a Viper. There are some dealership that...

    Got my Viper

    Go with a Corsa system if you don't mind spending a few $$$ more and don't want the annoying drone you'll get with the Mopar system.

    White SRT-10 with my new C7 Z51 White

    Yeah, all of the "old folks" who no longer post or visit this forum anymore (for obvious reasons) would be "turning over in their graves" after reading about other Viper owners congratulating someone on the purchase of a vette ON THIS FORUM!!!

    Loud exhaust

    A Corsa system alone would not make your car too loud in my opinion. If you are not familiar (not the original owner) with the exhaust set-up, then something else has been done like the deletion or modification of the cats or aftermarket headers.

    Got my Viper

    Free oil change for life? Yeah, up to 5 quarts of Quaker State 10W-30 or 5w-30 conventional oil and a regular (non-Viper) Mopar oil filter. LOL

    White SRT-10 with my new C7 Z51 White

    Man how things have changed over the years. If you would have mentioned purchasing a Vette on this forum back in the day, you would have gotten blasted. How times and people have changed.........

    Yikes...Gen IV window regulator issues...again!

    If there's dealer claiming to replace window regulators for free the life of the vehicle, I'd surely like to see that in writing...........

    Yikes...Gen IV window regulator issues...again!

    If your car is under a factory extended warranty, then it is covered. If there's no factory warranty, then you're on your own. Even though this is a very common failure, there is no special allowance by Chrysler to cover the replacement. The best thing to do find the least expensive price for...

    Knocking noise in rear brakes

    The factory torque spec on the caliper bolts is 85 ft-lbs.

    Brake fluid recommendations

    They are definitely worth the money. The easiest and most effective fluid flush and bleed I've ever done. Once installed, all you have to do is pump the pedal and watch the reservoir. You can actually watch the fluid level in the reservoir through the windshield while seated. Motul 600 has...

    Brake fluid recommendations

    Motul RBF 600. And while you're at it, add a set (two per caliper) of Speedbleeders for plenty of easy, air-free fluid changes for the future.

    New paint

    This may not mean much to you but a "factory-type" paint job on this car requires the body panels to be removed and painted individually. If you're not concerned with the integrity (factory paint) being affected if you now have painted fasteners or tape lines, then nevermind.

    Calling All '05 Commemorative Editions

    Slight difference due to the raised section of the Gen IV hood but the taper and stripe widths are basically the same. I matched the exactly stripe dimensions supplied by Prefix. The paint process was also copied in that factory "lip/ridge" is present between the hood and the stripes wihich...

    Calling All '05 Commemorative Editions

    I have right at 6k miles so for me, that's about 800 miles per year (purchased new in April 2006).

    2005 Service Manual for sale.

    Your best bet is to list it on Ebay and go from there. You may have a difficult time selling it on this site as most already have a copy or already have or know how to get the .pdf version for a lot less.

    Baer Eradispeeds for sale

    I also have a set of these matched with my chromed 5 spokes. Good bang for the buck.....

    Changing Clutch Fluid

    I'm not saying that I won't use the bleed fitting at the slave cylinder which of course is the best method to extract the fluid. I'm just responding to earlier posts claiming to flush the system by simply sucking the fluid out of the reservoir which in my opinion, does little to the fluid in...

    Changing Clutch Fluid

    I'm still curious to know how the clutch system can be deemed a "recirculating" system and you can do a complete (the key word is COMPLETE) fluid change by only removing the fluid in the reservior and "cycling" the clutch pedal.

    Gotta ask...

    More so..... if you let total strangers influence your personal decisions (in this case, buying a car that you really want), then buy something else.
