thats what i asked but says no... he said wiper motor works.... cant hook up his computer to it to diagnose though????????
This dam car is raping my wallet
Ok long story short. I spun bearings and had them replaced and bottom end built back up... test drove car approx 50 miles and noticed the cooling hydraulic fan, the fan blades them self(plastic) was starting to crack so had to replace entire assembly.... guy drove my car some more today to...
I have gotten hit as well.... try to replace your Viper windshield wiper blades
I went to dodge to order new ones....they are small and really chincy looking thought maybe 30-40 bucks max.... nope!!!! try 80 something dollars for wipers i have and unless caught off guard in a storm will never...
Well i guess i could if i had any disapline, but i dont.... first time im driving it "breakin it in" and i see a sports car im hitting red line... he knows this so he will be putting the first 100 or so miles on the car
Have my car in shop now for spun bearings and by reading this site i saw about this issue and asked my guy to check it.... he said good find, it was loose .... locktite it and retightened it... still waitin on my car back... been 3 weeks... hes supposed to break it in this weekend for me... cant...
I have searched and read about this mod and seems some mixed reviews. What do you guys with Gen 3s think about changing your throttle body. What ones have you had success with.
I have basic bolt ons: K&N, Headers and Catless Exhaust with SCT Pro Race Package Tune
If you are only picking...
Update
Apparently my guy has been in contact with clevite and has ordered some bearings. $600.00
Havent gotten to talk to him much about it but looks like its gonna be a bearing swap.
Get the one that makes u smile more when u look at it. Who cares about value? If u want value dont throw ur money away on a toy, maybe a prostitute. Bottom line is this will be your car, yours!!! So get the one that YOU like the best!
I believe mains are fine. Its the rod brgs. My guy is checkin with clevite on the bearings and we will try to polish journals if necessarry. I have decided to go with the non rebuild route if possible. Shoot as is i can spin tires through 2nd gear and can get to 100 as fast as any car pending...
Not sure but if its factory radio it comes with everything needed to have siri
You do though i believe have to have the radio on and car outside where it can pick uo signal when u call to activate it.
Shoot the siri should be playing advertisments with out even having it hooked up
Thanks man i really appreciate the info.
I will ask that question to my guy. Though he is the best in my area and i would trust what he told me i needed to do no matter how cheap or costly. I really trust him.
No i am areeing that we if we can are going to do that exactly, pan is pulled and brgs are out. Guessing he wants to do some more chking and the main reason to rebuild is if there is debris in the oil that will cycle through and do more damage. Hard particles i believ will just start to wear on...
From what he says so far you can replace the bearings while crankshaft still in car. Mine is still installed he just rolled it and took off rod caps and i am
Assuming rolled out the bearings. He is mad bc cant figure out what caused it says there is really no abuse??
Ok here is the update...
three bearings were spun.. one was worse for sure... some minor particles in oil... also he said that the bearings dont look like they were starved for oil, maybe cold run to hard or over rev conditions cant really pin point exactly what caused this...crankshaft can see...
well i am on pins and needles right now waiting to see what my guy finds as he finishes going through it if it even happens today!!
I will wait to see what he says we should do and if there is any rebuilding to be done he is the man for the job....
Fkin 10k good night my wife will have my...
ok checked with dodge and of course warranty is expired and didnt take the extended.
So far all i have from my guy is that two bearings have spun....
With this info in mind what am i looking at getting in to both mechanically and financially?
Also if i am getting in to something nasty...
ok i do know the previous owner tracked this car a few times so it is all making sense.
Also the car is and 04 but has a few bolt ons so i am sure any warranty i might have is gone now correct
ok read some of your search sections and see spun bearing is a common problem.. if i did spin a bearing should i go ahead and replace all of them and i see that some people send engine off for rebuild, is this necessary?
Thx. I will find out more this morning and let u know. Is this just some fluke? I mean the car only has 26-27k miles on it, doesnt seem like **** should be failing
