    Replacement corner window gasket for 2004

    Awesome, thanks. The tech at my dealer tore my flag when he was raising the window after fixing the window regulator :( I never had a problem with it, I don't know what he did differently.

    Replacement corner window gasket for 2004

    I need a replacement passenger-side one of these: (yes, this is a driver side picture ). Currently Dodge shows it as ZZ status, which I understand to mean "good luck getting a new one from us for a long, long time." Anyone have a source for new?

    Troubleshooting help: Ignition locked out?

    I never looped back here to close this but it turned out it was a ground problem, but with a twist. I said the car failed to start and after I opened & closed the trunk it started successfully. Puzzling, and I was ready to start tracing the electrical system. It turns out the negative cable...

    Set of 2004 Run-flats

    I thought about burning them out before taking them off, but I still needed to get to the tire shop for mounting :)

    Set of 2004 Run-flats

    It's not raining here in Seattle. I had a set of run flats, if someone thought they could use them I'd have been happy to see if we could arrange to get the tires to them rather than recycle them. Being 8 years old and 18k miles I doubted anyone was interested (as the crickets chirping here...

    Set of 2004 Run-flats

    I've got a set of original 2004 run-flats (just the tires) with 18k miles that are coming off this week (replacing with PSS). If anyone is interested in them let me know and we'll see what we can work out. Just drop me a PM. I'm in the Seattle area.

    Troubleshooting help: Ignition locked out?

    Ok thanks, I'll check out my cables and take a look at the battery voltage. For the ignition off draw test what kind of current should I expect? And I think the way you test that is with a milliamp meter between the disconnected negative cable and the negative battery terminal?

    Troubleshooting help: Ignition locked out?

    The battery is a year old, two tops, and I had just disconnected it from a trickle charger that day. I think the connectors are in good shape, just the usual light powdery build up. Though if I've got a short perhaps maybe I'm draining faster than I should be also. Car started fine after...

    Troubleshooting help: Ignition locked out?

    I've had this on-again off-again problem for a little while, haven't gotten to the bottom of it yet, but I may have some new info so trying again... 2004 SRT - very rarely when I try to start the car, upon pressing Start the ignition system will make a rapid loud clicking sound and the car will...

    High flow cats on stock car?

    Random Tech metal on my 04 in 2009. Cabin temp is way down, and I definitely like the sound over the stock. It's louder and angrier.

    If my Actron CP9125 OBDII reader doesn't work on my 2004...

    bingo! Thanks. And my full set of service manuals are on their way.:)

    If my Actron CP9125 OBDII reader doesn't work on my 2004...

    Yeah, I bought it because someone else liked theirs but now I'm scratching my head.

    If my Actron CP9125 OBDII reader doesn't work on my 2004...

    ... any thoughts on what might be the cause? Plugged it into my 2004 truck, the reader powers up and scans fine. Plug it into the Viper, no joy. Nothing on the reader display, nada. Car running or not, doesn't matter. Perhaps a tech didn't reconnect something last time I had it in?

    Compatible OBD reader?

    Seemed like 11 flashes to me. Odometer is set to total mileage. I think right now it's just telling me that it's recalibrating parameters after a full power disconnect. Prior to the full power disconnect I was getting a CEL so want to be ready to read it if it happens again.

    Compatible OBD reader?

    I tried to use this reader last weekend to pull some codes: Equus 3120 - CanOBD 2&1 Tool KitTM | O'Reilly Auto Parts and it wouldn't read anything on my 2004. The operating procedure was to plug it in, turn the car to on and press the -><- button on the reader, but then it just shuts down...

    Accessing convertible top latch on 2004?

    Thanks Lynn. Since I've got the Autoform rollbar installed I have a 3-piece back panel (rather than a one-piece stock panel) and I'm hoping I can remove just the portions of the panel that fit around the roll hoops and then squeeze a hand in. It couldn't be tighter than getting at the...

    Accessing convertible top latch on 2004?

    The entire latch mechanism has come loose, check out this short video: ViperLatch.wmv - Windows Live There are two retaining bolts, or what look like two bolts, extending down underneath the carpeting and I'm betting that their nuts have loosened. I hate it when that happens. I figured I...

    Accessing convertible top latch on 2004?

    What's the best way to access the latching mechanism for the convertible top? It looks like I could probably get at it if I remove the cowling behind the driver's seat but I don't know if there will be internal structure in my way if I do that. I need to tighten it down, I must've accelerated...

    Gen3 "see through" picture?

    Hmm, I followed your link and found an image - the original certainly didn't have that JB pages logo on it. Funny you should mention copyright, I wonder what David Kimble would think of JB altering his work :) Copyright doesn't necessarily mean you can't share or reproduce, but I can't find...

    Gen3 "see through" picture?

    A few years ago someone posted a high-resolution version of this picture (high enough for a good 8.5x11 print): and I saved a copy, but either I put it somewhere really safe (even from me), or I've lost it. Anyone have the original high-res picture they can repost? I can't find it in the...

    Dyno day?

    Any plans for another dyno day this year, out in Hobart? I may be off, but I thought last year's was around September/October and I couldn't make it.

    Viper Tech @ Jack Carroll Dodge?

    Got my car back and it sounds excellent. Metal RandomTech cats are roaring! When I picked it up today I spoke to Scott, their viper tech, and came away satisfied. He doesn't see many Vipers, but has worked on more in the past and owned an ACR with 700rwhp that he purchased from someone in...

    Viper Tech @ Jack Carroll Dodge?

    And here I thought Costco was cheaper out of the goodness of their corporate heart :) Live and learn - Shell and stabilizers it is from now on. New update, the bad news: cats are blown. The good news: JonB is doing a drop-ship for Randomtech metal high-flow cats.

    Viper Tech @ Jack Carroll Dodge?

    Rairdon's in Monroe has had it this week. I thought it was a cat problem going in. Today they got to it and they think I got some bad gasoline - maybe some water in the tank. I'm not sure how that could've happened unless the Issaquah Costco or Sammamish Shell station have tank leaks...

    Video: How a differential works

    I thought some folks here might like this: It's a great, brief video (claims to be from the 30s) on how a differential works.
