    high beam switch problem

    Absolutely invaluable and I appreciate everything you did! I’m sure many others will too in the future! Following your write up the cover is now off and I’m moving to the second layer. What are your thoughts on me using a small piece of Gorilla Tape to fill in that void? I don’t have access...

    Any Viper techs in Southe Florida near Tampa/Clearwater?

    Orr Jeep has several. One did some maintenance on my car, very knowledgeable people there.

    high beam switch problem

    Can someone please tell me how to remove the cover from the turn signal side of the multifunction switch? I cannot seem to be able to figure it out! And which side comes off? Thank you!

    New Gen 1 Owner 1993 RT/10! Smog

    When was the last time that it passed an emissions test? That should either give you confidence or concern(s). California is tough! You might want to talk to a few shops that do the testing to see if they will work with you by allowing you several tests in order to pass, just in case that 1st...

    Mamba wanted

    Why would you think she’s a White car? She is Black, so is the plaque, Black and Red actually. The number doesn’t seem to be associated with the VIN.

    Oil Pressure

    Key on engine off it jumps to 50psi. Where is the sensor located?

    Oil Pressure

    I’m seeing something new that is bothering me. The oil pressure at start up flies to 100psi and wants to stay around that. After the temp is warmed up it falls to 75-80psi at idle, but as soon as I start driving it goes back to 100psi. the oil and filter were changed about 1500-2000 miles...

    Wiper Blades?

    This is the best reply, unfortunately. I could not find a direct replacement anywhere. Just have to pay the dealer $89 + tax for both sides or do what this gentleman describes. Our blades are pricey but the parts guy told me that all MOPAR blades are, it has nothing to do with the high speed...

    Gen III power steering

    RSI Racing has the hoses on their website. I have them on my car, 40K miles later and no issues. Freaking weird that anyone would recommend the OEM hoses because they all fail! Dumb.

    2004 Viper turn signal problem

    It’s the stalk, one piece holds both sides. Most people just replace it, easy and about $175. Replaced mine but it’s acting up again now a few years on. There is a product called DeOxit D100, might be worth removing it and hitting it with that product to see if it clears the problem.

    Revive Leather Shift **** (Mamba)

    It still looks as shown, except for a small hole that has worn at the very top edge, but that has nothing to do with the refurbishment or the finishes used. These leather paints seem to be very durable. I’ve driven it about 7500 miles since I did the refresh.

    Oil pressure rise time at start

    Whenever you try something new you become more alert to the mundane. Had the same observation when I switched to 0-40. I recently switched back to 10-30 and there is still a lag of that red light going off; it was probably there with both oils but I freaked out because it seemed to be taking...

    Tire for Gen 2

    I just went through this with my Gen III 18” and 19”. The Pilot Sports in my sizes are not discontinued, they just don’t have a production date. Call Michelin and ask about your sizes. For me the answer was to switch to the Pilot Sport 4S, it’s a greatly improved version, yet still it has a...

    Michelin All Season 4 Versus 4S

    I just put the 4S on the front, it has a similar profile appearance to the PSS’s on the rear. These are super nice, you will like them. Reading more about them it’s a very different beast as far as technology goes, everything is updated. The material feels soft smooth and light. The PSS has...

    Michelin All Season 4 Versus 4S

    Not disagreeing with you on the "all season" thing at all. Its just that I've been through multiple sets of Pilot Sports, starting with the Zero Pressure and then transitioning to the regular and I've enjoyed them all. They consistently get 15K miles without issue and they meet my needs. As I...

    Gen III Passenger Door Handle Spring

    So my door handle spring gave out, one side anyways; it's not flopping around it just won't pop back up. This happened years ago on the drivers side and I bought a new assembly, but I'm wondering if I can just replace the spring without much drama??? Anyone have input to guide me? Thanks for...

    Michelin All Season 4 Versus 4S

    Well I called Michelin. The ONLY tire they recommend for a Gen III is the Pilot Super Sport. The rears are “available“ once they decide to make them again, which hasn’t been since the start of Covid. No production date is set, it just hasn’t been discontinued, yet. That said the S4 is...

    Michelin All Season 4 Versus 4S

    Yes, those are the two choices. Both are Pilot Sports and Y Speed Rated. Any real downside to the AS4? It costs a bit less and the treadwear is higher, seems a better choice. I just drive the car, no performance or track use. Highway and city driving only.

    Michelin All Season 4 Versus 4S

    So I’m tire shopping and Michelin has new names for it’s Pilot Sport tires. This is the first that I’ve learned about a Michelin All Season 4 and a 4S. The All Season is a better value and is a 45K mile tire versus 30K for the 4S, although both will probably go half of that. They are both Y...

    Front Licence Plate Holder?

    Texas Viper Owner here, don’t sweat the front license plate, keep it in your trunk “just in case”. When I moved here 25 years ago I asked a police officer about the front plate law, he told me that a cop would only stop you for it if he genuinely wanted to harass you. It was a law without a...

    What is best car cover?

    Not sure Dodge made one for your model, but I have an OEM cover for my Gen III. It’s waterproof (except where they sewed the Viper logo on, micro stitch holes). Fits snug. I like it!
