    dome light door switch failed!

    My drivers door was starting to sag. thanks to this site I decided I better nip it in the bud before it did more damage. I used a floor jack, a small piece of lumber and did it myself without much fuss. While I was tinkering on the car, I decided to try and fix the dome light that only came on...

    AC, battery, alternator theory/question!

    I was feeling pretty good about the car recently, after getting the A/C 0-rings replaced and getting the 998 recall sorted out. but then driving home last night, I stopped for beer, left the fog lights on with the car off for about 5 minutes and the car would not start. For the better part...

    Epic Suckage! another 998 gusset recall done wrong :-(

    I went to do an oil change today and realized I cannot remove the oil filter :-( Of course, I find the very frustrating explanation here. Appears they put the gussets in backwards as several other folks have also suffered. Has anybody had luck with getting Dodge to make this right? It's...

    slow battery drain , not so slow anymore :-(

    my car has always had a slow battery drain. so, I keep it on a battery tender. But, it's gotten worse. If I don't keep it on the tender the battery won't even last a day now. Battery is about a year old. Car is a 97 GTS with 11,100 miles. I've seen other folks saying they had issues the...

    Slow battery drain 1997 GTS

    Installed anew Mopar battery last year. I see in my maintennace records that the previous owner went through several battery changes at the dealer. I assumed it was because he drove teh car less than 600 mile sper year for it's 14 years of life. But, now that I'm putting more like 4000miles...

    feel like i violated a virgin!

    my 97 GTS had 7700 miles on her when I picked her up in April. I'm about 10 miles shy of 10k now. I figure the previous owners managed about 550 miles per year. Be nice if I could stay below 5500 ;-) Oh well, I guess I bought her to drive her. I'm eager to see how she responds to some...

    possible ignition miss around 2000rpm in 4th gear

    I might be just imagining this miss, but it seems like there's a miss when i'm at a steady throttle position around 2000rpm. it's most noticeable in 4th gear. Doesn't seem like it misses anything when I put my foot in it. 97 GTS- about 9600 miles, bone stock. any ideas?

    Fresh Meat and new shades!

    after much encouragement from this forum , I got some new tires on the GTS. Michelin's all the way around. No more Nexen's up front and no more 14 year old Michelins' out back. I live in central Texas, where it's Hot Hot Hot! any suggestions on break-in? I also got the windows tinted...

    killed battery, engine computer confused questions?

    I left the dome light on for a few days and the battery died. Once it got running again it had a hard time finding a typical idle. It was high at first, then it started bogging down and revving back up trying to find a sweet spot. That went on for a few days. Today, it finally got back to a...

    similar Alpine head unit with auxilliary input

    Has anybody found a head unit very similar to the stock Alpine in a 97 GTS that offers an aux input for MP3/Ipod player? I'd like to find one that looked as original as possible. I'm not expecting to find anything in the new models. Some model numbers for older head units would be helpful. I...

    Howdy from Texas! First Viper.

    I picked up my first Viper last week. A 1997 GTS that had just 7700 miles when I picked it up. Now, just a few miles over 8000. I put in a new mopar battery and a dome light bulb, and I think that's all it needs at this point. The Red paint and balck interior look amazing for being 14 years old...
