Question 2
95 Chrysler New Yorker runs fine, but NO gauges (oil,fuel,rpm,overhead trip meter,etc.) or A/C.?... New battery 3 weeks ago. Ran fine, then nothing. Where do I start troubleshooting

Answers
1) For the gauges, check the fuses. - Cars4Charities

2) Check fuse 14. Sometimes on LHS's 1995 model this one blows out and LHS and New Yorker are pretty much the same model. - Crystal Sunshine

3) All this you mentioned have separate circuits. BUT they have two thing in common. They all run through the ignition switch and all go through a 'fuse link' next to the battery. Remove the covers around the switch first and check to see if there are any burned or discolored wires at the switch plug-in connector. If it is OK, then check the wires coming from the battery. They are bundled and wrapped near the battery. They are different colored for different resistance. Yours will probable be yellow or orange that you are looking for. When they burn out, they won't always burn through the insulation, so you may have to tug on them separately to find a burned out one. They must be replaced with the same color fuse link. If you use ordinary wire, you could burn the car up. - Jackolantern

2) Thermostat. would be my guess, The water pumps in those usually don't have any issues that early in life. I would try the thermostat first.

is there a syrup like smell when you turn on the defrosters? If yes its a head gasket.
Also if there is a radiator cap remove it and start the car and leave it at an idle. if fluid starts pushing out it is a head gasket. - PA Ap. Developer

3) Ok when a car is over heating can be a few things from a ez to fix fuse to a head gasket
first check ur fluids (already done) second check if ur fan is coming on if no check ur fuses, if yes then u replace ur thermostat and if it still doing it will be time for a pro to check ur car may be a head gasket...

Question 4
how do I make my 2001 chysler 300m go faster?...

Answers
1) take the engine out and push it down hill - sb_guitar7@sbcglobal.net

2) The cheapest way is to make it lighter, just take out unneeded parts, like the back seats. For every 100lbs of sprung weight (above the suspension) you'll be about a tenth sec faster in a quarter mile. (10 lbs of unsprung weight will do about the same.) Or if you've got money to put into it get a turbo and race computer, cold air intake, or a huge shot of nitrous. If its governed (usually 107-115 mph) disable it.

Or you can just push the pedel on the right down farther. Lol - Mike Christ

1994 chrysler lebaron 3.0 engine water on spark plug?... hi, i wanted to no why my car has water on the spark plugs not alot though couple drips on the threads and on the part u gap(numbers 3 and 5 both are side by side), the oil looks like a light chocolate shack, it also spills a lot of water out the exhaust pipe. sort of like its being sprayed out non stop. i haven't did a compression test but all plugs are removed im thinking its a head gasket. lmk what y'all think thanks

and the rest of the spark plugs look good just numbers 3 and 5 were wet
yep coolent level does keep going down verry slow, does that mean somethin else
it ended up being a cracked head

Answers
1) i agree with you. if your compression results are fine and high every where else but on NO 3 and 5, then it can be a head gasket block or head. if th coolant level is falling, that fits into that nasty puzzle. - mdk68gto, ase certified m tech

2) Yep, you have a blown head gasket between 3 and 5 which is also going through a water passage in the gasket. The longer you drive this way, the bigger the chance you will burn a passage way through the leak into the head or block and a new gasket will not be able to seal it off. - Jackolantern

How is the Chrysler PT Cruiser?

2011-07-23T19:40:00.001-07:00

Question 1
How is the Chrysler PT Cruiser?... Is it good on gas? I heard that it's kinda slow and the seats are low. I'm a short person, so I can't have that. lol

Answers
1) I think it was a failed attempt at bringing a classic car look to the 21st century.

People report that they get 20-21 mpg avg/city - Domgod

2) IF UR READY TO SPEND ALOT OF MONEY ON REPAIRS, GET READY. ITS OK FOR FEMAILS UNTIL THEY BREAK DOWN. ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. GOOD LUCK - Eddie Rivera

3) horrible UGLY car that is not worth the money when you can get something so much better for the same money - gfraser92

4) dont get it, its really ugly, the drive is no good it has no pickup and its going to need a lot of repairs. my best bet because your short and you want good gas milage-go for a mini cooper. they are a excellent drive have good pickup and milage and look good. - Joseph Solomon

5) the chrysler pt cruiser is fine - blackopszombie

6) This is a question that is really best answered by doing a little digging on the internet--as there are MANY sites out there with explicit (and exhaustive) info on PT Cruisers. Different models and years get different gas mileage. Over all, though, I would characterize its fuel consumption as middle of the road--neither a gas guzzler, nor especially fuel efficient.

The "kinda slow" thing is relative--and depends on which engine you get--which depends on the model and year. (I have a Turbo engine, and find it pleasantly zippy--but I've also test driven a non-Turbo, and had no problems with acceleration on it, either. I am not, however a 17 year old male, with a "need for speed"--I just want to accelerate smartly out of a traffic light, and go the speed limit. My 2003 PT Cruiser GT (automatic transmission, with Turbo) does that.)

As for the seat height--again, it depends on the model, and whether or not your seats are height adjustable. I'm 5'2", and one of the things I really like about my Cruiser, is that I can raise the seats up nice and high--and look DOWN on the road, instead of feeling like a cartoon of two eyes, peeping over the top of my steering wheel.

One thing that I DO find problematic about the driver's seat, though, is the head rest. It's too high for someone of my height--and I find it's extremely difficult for me to look around it, when checking over my shoulder, in my blind spot.

I strongly suggest you do two things: Google "PT Cruiser reviews" (Edmunds.com has great reviews, but there are many other good sources of info) and read up on the year and model you're interested in, and make sure that you know the package that gives you the features that are most important to you (ie, if you need a zippier engine, you'll want the Turbo, on the earlier models--there's a good Wikipedia article that explains the various trim packages and what they include).

If you're still interested--find one to test drive! That'll be the best way to know if it's a car that feels right to YOU.

(Personally--I adore mine. I've had cars with more torque--a 78 Chrysler New Yorker with an 8 cylinder engine, for one!--better gas mileage, more luxury features--but for sheer "cuteness", my baby can't be beat. I feel like I'm one of the "Cool Kids" everytime I get behind the wheel...knowing that I've waited for 10 years to get myself one of these!) - Aurora Dawn

Question 5
1990 Plymouth Voyage will not start?... Sometimes it sounds like the engine is locked up. After a few tries, the engine will turn over and start.

Answers
1) Get a new car - Tobin

2) If that is an old starter or the original starter it sounds like the starter is worn out maybe the brushes are shot or even the starter solenoid maybe faulty.I'd also recommend that someone handy with vehicles goes over all the battery/starter/alternator/engine block ground posts and all the grounds, check if the starter has a ground wire and disconnect these connections one at a time clean the wire o-ring connectors and the metal well with a wire brush and sandpaper, then use the automotive electrical circuit protection and lubrication jell on all the connections before you reconnect them.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way maybe someone can pop the starter off and either bring it to a parts store or starter re-builder shop and have it tested, also a shop or parts store can conduct alternator/battery tests have them checked too bec even a weak battery or weak charging system can cause poor starting problems.Note they can check/test all 3 of those circuits on the spot if you drive the vehicle to a parts store and ask them to show you the results on their test equipment.Also if the battery cables or connections are loose they can cause starting issues and if the cables going to the different devices I've mentioned are original or fairly old they can rot/corrode internally and cause problems so you may want to change them. - helpful bob

3) Take the battery to an auto parts store and have them test it. It might be getting old and not delivering enough power. That's a lot cheaper fix than a new starter. If the battery is good, then it's probably the starter. - sheltown

Car runs great but the check engine light flashes somestimes like when ur waiting for food in a drive through & i took to a mechanic all he said that the odb 2 read "PISTON 1" & then he said dont worry about there is nothing wrong i just want to know what u guys think?

Answers
1) check engine lights sometimes come on just as a reminder to take your car in for service after so many miles

if you were told everything was fine, instead of being charged for more work, then you should be ok - John

2) A flash is for a misfire. There is something wrong about a "don't worry" response to that.

Find a better shop. - alfredb1979

3) well if this was a mechanic you trust then believe him, if you are worried there is a problem, take it to another mechanic, I garuntee you will find one happy to start slapping on parts needlessly and charging you happily for every dime he can. The choice is yours not mine its your car its your money what are you going to do? - roger

4) I wouldn't listen to that mechanic. Get a second opinion.Most times the check engine light comes on for something very minor, like a gas cap that wasn't tightened, or possibly an oxygen sensor. Most of the common codes are related to governmental emissions control systems, and don't cause any severe damaged, but should still be addressed because they can cause a decrease in performance, and over time will likely get worse. Others are more severe, and require more immediate action to be taken. A FLASHING check engine light, IS an indicator of such a problem. If this mechanic said it was piston number 1, I'm assuming that you have a severe misfire in that cylinder, and it may damage your catalytic converter if not fixed.

Get it checked out. Don't listen to him. If there was really nothing wrong, you wouldn't have the light on in the first place, would you? ;) - paul

5) It sounds like the mechanic knew that you've somewhat of a misfire in cylinder no1 and I'd probably recommend that you have any shop scan it for you.If you've not done a tune up in awhile I'd perhaps start with that.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way listen to the engine and when it's cold started feel the engine bec any misfire should be able to be heard and felt. - helpful bob

Question 2
Car repairs? chrysler sebring?... 2001 Chrysler Sebring will not start on first 2 tries but 3rd time it starts. It wants to start but almost as if I gotta build the gas up .. Odd , is it the fuel pump

Answers
1) My friend has an older sebring... her starter went out.. sounds like the same thing.. my jeep is doing it too now. I would say yes probably the fuel pump, but take it to a dealer ship in town, and just talk to someone about it. - Zachary

2) If the car turns over: IE starting but not cranking... the starter is working fine.

Usually, when the car takes a few attempts to start or takes an unusually long starting time to crank, it is a cam/crank sensor or possibly fuel pump. If it is trying to detect timing but can't, it will default to ECM programming. You can confirm or eliminate it being a fuel check ball (which holds the fuel in the line) by turning the key to on but not starting the car. Listen for the fuel pump whine. You may or may not hear it. Waiting a few seconds should prime the line with pressure. If it starts and runs, it isn't the fuel pump itself. If it doesn't take a few attempts to start, it may be loosing fuel pressure when the car sits a bit.

I'm betting more on a sensor. Is there a check engine light? - SG

3) It maybe fuel pressure or fuel pump related but if the cables/wires going to the battery/alternator/starter/starter ground/engine block ground posts are loose or have any rust or corrosion that could cause the problem too.

What I'm wondering is if this happens more when the vehicles sits over night or sits awhile bec that could be the battery having bad/dead cells or it not being able to hold a full charge.Otherwise the starter/starter solenoid/starter relay could be weak or or faulty they can cause starting problems too.

There are several things that can cause starting issues one being the fuel pressure, weak battery, faulty charging system, faulty starter, it may require a tune up or a sensor such as the crankshaft or cam sensor , etc.

One thing you could do is leave the key in the run position a few mins before trying to start it and if that makes it start up a lot easier then the fuel pressure is probably the problem.Another test is try starting up the vehicle with the tank fairly full and try it at different tank levels.If it always wants to start up with more fuel in the tank this again leads to a fuel pressure, faulty fuel pump issue.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way I'd recommend checking the fuel pressure at the fuel rail, have a parts store or shop conduct some free tests on the starter/battery and charging system, plus ask them if they can scan the system via the data port and the proper scanner. - helpful bob

4) Must be the battery, or engine. Have it checked by a mechanic. If you don't trust any mechanic, you could diagnose it yourself.

I have a Sebring as well. Engine is Lxi 2.7L. You can ask here what might seem to be the problem. - Dick Bennett

Question 3
My 94 plymouth voyager turns off when I make a stop light?...

Answers
1) Have the crank position sensor (CPS) checked. - Billy Jacked

2) There are a lot of different things such as the crankshaft, camshaft, MAP sensor and even a faulty coolant temperature sensor can cause installing issue.If the engine requires a tune up or the fuel/gas mixtures are wrong the idle would be off and you should be noticing it when the engine is idling and when you're driving.For example the idle is a bit too low or you've a loose belt both can cause stalling problems especially when trying to stop.Performing a basic tune up, changing/checking the air filter, replacing the fuel filter, checking all the plug wires, vac hoses/vac lines/vac junctions, treating the fuel system, checking the belt, belt tension and belt tensioner.Note those tension pulleys are known to have problems, also check the ignition coil spark plug connections make sure their clean, the ignition housing should be checked for any signs of internal over heating such as cracks/bulges/discolouring.

Even rust and corrosion or loose connections at the battery/alternator/starter/engine block ground posts can cause stalling issues and you might want to over haul and clean these wire connectors and connections.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way you may want to get a free scan done at a parts store or shop or pull the codes yourself via the ignition.If you have the key in the Aux position then put it in the run position , go back to the aux position then run and back to aux then to the run position and leave it there.When you see the engine light flash once then pause and flash twice in a row that is code 12 and it's related to the battery being disconnected lately, code 55 means end of the stored codes.Note check anything that is related to the EGR valve and vac lines etc, plus try cleaning the throttle body with throttle body cleaner spray. - helpful bob

Question 4
1996 chrysler concord starts up then dies?... replaced idle control valve, checked fuel pump relay, checked fuel filter

Answers
1) Check your TPS and MAF. If it dies slowly you might need a new fuel pump check for pressure. - Domgod

2) The throttle position sensor could be causing that problem or you may have a fuel pressure issue.Here's a basic test that you can perform there is a valve on the fuel rail this is the fuel test pressure port, take the cap off and then use a key etc and push down on the valve.If gas comes gushing out you know at least that fuel is getting to the fuel rail , you can do this test with the gas pressure regulating valve on the fuel rail, simply remove it, and see how much gas comes gushing out.Normally you'd place a rag below the pressure valve or test port before releasing the pressure or removing the pressure valve , the pressure valve should have gas gushing out for a few seconds then gas still runs out a bit for it stops.If little gas comes out then you know that the problem is not enough fuel pressure.

Normally if a sensor like the TPS or MAP sensor etc is faulty the ECM should have detected the error and the engine light should of come on as well as the ECM should have a stored error code.Sometimes the engine light won't come on but there are stored codes so my suggestion is use the ignition and check for any codes.If you turn the key to the run position then to the AUX position then back to run then back to AUX then to run and leave it there you should see the engine light start to flash.The light may flash once then pause and flash twice in a row this is code 12 = battery was disconnected within the last 50 starts, if you see code 55 that means end of the stored codes.

Hope that helps and best of luck. By the way what engine is in your car? I've fixed many problems on all sort of makes and models of vehicles especially cars like yours in fact I own one like your car.Those have many problems and one is poor wiring, another is problems with inner tie rod bushings and problems with the ECM.I've the original factory service manual and schematics/diagrams etc and if you want any more help or advice feel free to contact me. - helpful bob

What is the fuel economy on a 66 Plymouth Fury III?... I found a Fury III going to training today for $4500 and am contemplating getting it. The biggest question is what the fuel economy for it is. Also some suggestions to make it better would be appreciated :)
Edit: Yes, it has a V-8 under the hood, yet only has 33k miles on it. It is in excellent condition (for its age).

Answers
1) Depends on the engine. Most probably a gas guzzling V-8 with 200 k or more, in which case you'd be lucky to get 10 mpg. Those engines were also designed to run on leaded gas, which is hard to find these days. It will get even worse gas mileage on unleaded. - Valor D

2) It's a great classic. It is NOT a daily driver. Fuel mileage should not be one of your concerns. - Dennis

3) In 1966 premium leaded fuel was 30-35 cents a gallon and fuel mileage was not a consideration in the selling of a new car, long, wide and quad headlights were the order of the day.

The Fury III is a large car and will not handle like cars built today, probably has drum brakes and no intermittent wipers, may have AC. However they were nice riding cars and had engines up to 440 cubic inches (available late in the model year), most were equipped with 318 or two barrel 383 engines.

This would not be a good everyday driver if fuel mileage is a consideration. If I were to purchase this vehicle, I would install a 383, if not already equipped with one, heads with hardened valve seats, an aluminum dual plane intake with a well tuned 600 CFM carburetor, early '70's "Magnum" cast iron exhaust manifolds and true dual mandrel bent exhaust system no smaller than 2 1/2 inches in diameter.

reason why the horn and cruise would stop working on a 2000 crysler grand voyager?

Question 1
reason why the horn and cruise would stop working on a 2000 crysler grand voyager?... I have a 2000 crysler grand voyager in my shop and customer complains that the horn and cruise both went out at the same time, i am thinking the ground wire is shot

Answers
1) I'm thinking the horn is shorted internally. Pull the connection on the horn and see if the fuse blows. Have you even checked for a blown fuse yet? You've got a "shop" are a mechanic yet think a ground wire will stop both the horn and the cruise to stop working? How is a ground circuit hooked up to both? I'd expect the B+ for each is on the same fuse! - thebax2006

2) Hi Ron,

chances are you have a blown fuse.

sometimes you can take the van to Autozone and they will put a tester and tell you what codes are going off telling you what needs to be fixed. They will do this for free.

I just wrote my new amazon book. - Black Belt Bob

3) The horn and cruise both go through the 'clock spring' under the steering wheel. We had a recall on a lot of these back around then and replaced a truck load. Some has a life time warranty on them because it is part of the safety features. (Air bag). Check with your Chrysler/Dodge dealer and see if yours is one of them. - Jackolantern

4) It could be that these two devices are fed by the same fuse and the fuse is blown or they share a common ground junction that is rusted/corroded or it has a clock spring problem.

Hope that helps and best of luck. - helpful bob

5) It might be a coincidence that they quit at the same time. I would look at the fuses first. Get some one to press the horn and listen for the horn relay clicking. If it does click, tap the horns with a hammer while sometimes this will get it working again.
For cruise control, turn on the key , turn the cruise on and off and listen with your ear near the servo. It should click. If not the servo is pooched. If it clicks You might have cruise switch in the steering wheel or where ever the switch is. - Donny

5) I would say your CV joints are shot. Once the rubber boots split you will lose all the grease in there and the bearings will wear out in a very short time. - Donny

how do i know if my roadrunner has a 2bbl or 4bbl?... I have a 1972 plymouth roadrunner,6.6 liter 400 engine automatic,all stock how can i find out if my car has a 2bbl or 4bbl?& if someone can please explain what both mean thanks!

Answers
1) bbl is short for barrel and when referring to carburetors it is how many tubes with venturis the air passes through. Take the air cleaner housing off and look at the carb, open the choke butterfly valves and count them - wondering

2) Take the air cleaner top off and look at the carburetor -- if it has four throats/holes (look under the plate covering them), and it does, it is a four barrel.
If it had two throats/holes it would be a two barrel but it isn't.
It means you have four nozzles/jets feeding the eight cylinders, as opposed to two if it was a two barrel.
That engine was rated at 255 h.p.
Original carburetor was a Carter 650cfm Thermoquad. What this means to you is that the front barrels (primaries) will be smaller than the back two (secondaries). This gives better fuel mileage at less than WOT (wide open throttle) and is similar to the Rochester Quadrajet in that respect. - Lone Wolf

3) I believe in 72 all 400 road runner engines had the 4 barrel thermoquad. - done wrenching

Answers
1) It's a Chrysler Sebring... Probably safer to leave it the way it is. - JetDoc

2) you most likely have a faulty chip that senses speed and tells the transmission to shift.

and the dashboard speedometer might be a totally separate issue. the cable for the speed might be stuck.

a buddy of mine got a 99 dodge durango. for 900 bucks cause it wouldnt shift out of 1st. i convinced him to buy it and get it fixed because i knew it wouldnt be expensive.

cost him 100 bucks and he has himself a nice truck now.
his dash also wouldnt read the speed until he went over 55 then the needle would shoot up to his current speed. its stuck but he is too lazy to fix it. - bfish91

lots of play in the front end of my 99' concorde, dont know what the parts are called, plz help?... I have a 99' chrysler conchorde xl and there is alot of play up and down on the passenger tire. WE found that the play was where the rod for that tire connects to the part that turns the wheels. dont know what its called on a car with front wheel drive. but it is the part that moves back and forth to make the wheels turn and the play is between that part and the rod that leads to the passenger wheel. i hoped i could find some pictures so when i call the mechanic i can tell him whats wrong by using the proper terminology. thanks in advance for your response

Answers
1) i do believe you are talking about the tierod end or the ball joint - KYLE

2) It sounds like you're referring to the tie rod ends, the inner tie rod ends are common to go bad on those. However, this should cause side to side play (like you're trying to steer the wheels by hand), not up and down play, but I expect that you were actually feeling side to side play and not up and down. Checking for up and down play usually requires using a bar of some sort under the tire while it's raised off the ground to check for play, or with the vehicle on a lift so you can get the leverage require to check for play.

You can either replace the entire tie rod ends, or just the bushings as long as the tie rods aren't damaged. This page http://www.dodgeintrepid.net/showthread.php?t=170138 has pictures of the inner tie rod ends at the steering gear end before and after replacing the bushings in them. (that page also gives instructions on how to change the bushings out) - Mark B

3) Inner tie rod. The bushing on the inside end basically disintegrates after time, leading to not a tight connection. Go ahead and have both sides replaced, since the other one is probably going bad as well. - Shag

2) Get an A/C specialist to check it. It could be a bad compressor (is it better at higher rev's?), or it could be a fault with the condensor or condensor fan. - Neil B

3) Did you evacuate the system before recharging it? If the drier was left open for a long time then the desiccant became saturated. Theoretically you can dry it back out if you keep vacuum on it long enough, but I would get a new drier. Moisture in the system will interfere with the refrigeration cycle, but more importantly it can react with contaminants and the r134a to form a corrosive sludge. That's bad!

Lack of oil won't directly impact cooling performance, but it will lead to premature compressor failure. Too much oil can also be bad. You need to evenly distribute oil throughout the system. If you lost oil and don't know how much, you might need to have the whole thing flushed and start over with a fresh oil charge. - mark32937

3) Contact the dealership and they can tell you if there is a recall. Be prepared to give them your car's vin. - C-Tech

4) You can try looking up Chrysler's head office or look for their site online use your ownerships Vin numbers and check to see if that model has any recall or service bulletin or flash/program updates related or unrelated to this problem.plus you can call a couple of dealerships local or otherwise and ask them for the info.

2) You have transmission problem. Mechanics may rip u off. Try this first. Drain n fill fluid (not flush). Buy high mileage fluid. Add lucas transmission conditioner. See if this solves the issue. Report back please. - Toyo

3) Chrysler has a problem with the "shift solenoid pack". Does not require trans removal. - Dennis

4) Ok is the fluid level good? That is the first step. Second when did you last have the filter changed? That is important also as low fluid or plugged filter can cause this condition. Next do you have second gear? If you do then that eliminatesthe second and reverse (front) sun gear as the problem. That leaves valve body issue or the reverse clutch. Those are your only options. It is not the solenoid pack as the solenoids are not energized for reverse. If I had to bet I would say that the reverse clutch is not holding and the friction material is burnt up. You will need to find a good mechanic or find a used trans and install it. Sorry for the bad news but this doesn't look very good for you. - Mike J

2) You've been stuck in a park since 2005?! Call 911 I guess :p - stevut0990

3) Make sure you press the brake pedal all the way. It may be that the brake/transmission interlock isn't working anymore. There's an override on the right hand side of the gear selector housing. Take out the plastic chrome-looking square around gear-selector housing, reach down at the bottom right hand corner to depress a level and that should allow you to take it out of park while the lever is depressed. Then you can drive it someplace to get it fixed.

Edited: I went and looked at my car. Removing the chrome square doesn't work. The cubby hole next to the gear selector has a black plastic liner that comes out (peel it back on the right hand side to get it started). Then you can put your finger in a hole near the rear left of the cubby hole and you'll touch what feels like a plastic tab. Press the tab in and at the same time shift the car out of park. The car has to be running so have your foot on the brake (might be best to have some help). Then you can drive it to a shop to get the brake-transmission interlock repaired. - sheltown

Are 2nd generation Chrysler Sebring convertibles generally good cars?... Please help. I have gotten many mixed reviews when checking other websites. People have so far either said that it was the best car they ever owned or it was a complete piece of trash. Let me know what you think.

Answers
1) complete piece of trash. - jimslade

2) Used cars are hit and miss, there is not real guide book as to how reliable it will be due to the fact that they will have been used by different drivers in different situations. I recommend not buying something that a younger driver has used as it will not have been cared for as well as a car from an older driver. My recommendations are to get a car fax report, and go and see the car.

Go see the car, test drive it, listing for things that don't sound right; loud screeches, clunking noises.

Feel for vibrations that would not be normal; strong vibrations in the steering wheel.

Check the heat of the engine while driving it, if its getting to hot then it has a radiator problem.

also, when test driving be sure to go up hills and try various speeds, this will test the transmission.

one final note, If the person you are trying to buy it from will not let you test drive it then DO　NOT　BUY　IT because there is a 100% chance of something being wrong with it. - RCD

3) I've always read that most Chryslers were a poor choice to get used (or new) due to poor reliability and quality. And all convertibles have additional drawbacks that won't get better with age: their bodies are less rigid (no roof) so they shimmy and shake, and there is the additional complexity of the roof mechanism which means more things to break. - Pearls Before Swine

4) I had a '99. I absolutely LOVED that car. Never gave me a problem except for minor things. I unfortunately drove her head on into a tree, and she went to sebring heaven. But, I'd give anything to have another. Preferably a '04,'05, '06. Convertible. Must be a convertible. I love them. Had a cirrus lx once that was a nightmare. Then a stratus that was great. Then the sebring that I absolutely was in love with until I killed her. - auroras

No start on 91 Chrysler Imperial?... For some reason the car doesnt want to start. Checked spark...its fine. I checked the fuel at the check valve with the button on it pressed down. While cranking the car, no fuel spit out of it. There is no fuel smell coming out the exhaust after cranking numberous times. After changing the fuel filter, it hiccuped a couple times while cranking. But still continues with the no start situation. I put my hand under the gas tank when my bro turned the key and I can't feel the time fuel pump turn on. I doesn't make a buzzing noise either. But when the key is turned the fuel pump relay clicks so its not a faulty relay. I found what looks like a diagnostic connector under the hood with a single wire diagnostic port near the main relay box. Is there a way to check for other codes via this connector(s)?

1) Go to a mechanic..they will fix anything or help you with what you need to and give great advice! Trust me...good luck =) - Blaze

2) You don't mention the engine thats in the vehicle but basically you need to remove the belt by releasing the tension on the belt via the tension pulley centre bolt.Then all you need to do is remove the centre bolt, pop off the pulley, and place the new pulley into place.I've found it easier to slide the belt back on and tighten up the bolt.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way the bolt maybe a 15mm and shop around for the replacement pulley bec prices can tend to vary a lot, plus the parts store maybe able to print you out some do it yourself instructions or pick up a service manual for it. - helpful bob

3) A $25 Chilton"s manual will explain this quite well for you. - Dennis

Question 2
Is Fiat planning on phasing out the Chrysler division?... Dodge has 12 models presently on the market or in development, including the trucks in the Ram division. Jeep has six models presently on the market or in development. Both have some high profile models coming, including the new Viper and Grand Wagoneer.

Chrysler on the other hand is just down to three models, and aside from non-specific talk of selling small Lancias based as Chryslers (and Fiat now seems to be backing away from this plan) there doesn't seem to be any plans to expand the line up, nor any plans for a coupe or anything like that could serve as a halo car for the brand, and if the Town and Country is phased out to allow Fiat to focus solely on marketing the Grand Caravan as some analysts are predicting, Chrysler will be down to just two cars. Chrysler is currently the worst performing division by far.

Will Fiat soldier on the Chrysler division when its down to just two models, or will they do what Daimler did (which killed the poorest performing, Plymouth, when they took over) and discontinue the Chrysler line to focus on Dodge/Ram and Jeep?

Answers
1) They'll probably scale it back for a few years while they reorganize the company and get some better designers and engineers in place to head the Chrysler departments.

I would be surprised if they totally killed Chrysler off, but then again, I never thought Pontiac would go away... - Red

2) Fiat won't make a hasty decision on the Chrysler Brand. They'll go a couple years, bring in a revamped design team, and I think they will keep Chrysler on the market. - chasm

3) There is some chatter to the effect that the T&C will continue and the Caravan (perhaps no longer Grand) will be downsized to a Fiat platform, though I have yet to see anything that looks like a production order.

Answers
1) As much as I'd like to be able to recommend the Sebring, because it is an "American" car, it's just not a very good choice in a used car.
If you value what Consumer Reports says: They give the 2004 Sebring a Worse Than Average rating on their Used Car Verdict, and the Sebring as a whole (all years) They give a Much Worse Than Average rating. Particular trouble spots include the suspension, the Climate Control System, and Engine and Transmission problems. Each of those areas scored a Much worse than Average rating in Consumer Reports.
Chrylser as a whole, has been stuck in last place out of the top 14 car manufacturers(14th out of 14) for several years now when given a "Total Score" for Automaker Performance. This total score is calculated from test results and reliability ratings.

Can using the wrong transmission fluid ruin my transmission in my Chrysler vehicle?... I have a 97 Plymouth Grand Voyager. I drive like a grandma and never had any issues with shifting (i did have a small transmission leak, but no issues with the transmission except for when I first found the leak - it wouldn't shift into drive or reverse - but didn't move it out of the driveway!). 2 days ago, my bf topped off my transmission fluid for me, and I didn't even think to check and see if it was the special kind for Chrysler's. After he topped it off (he used approx 1 quart) I drove for about 30 minutes and suddenly my van stopped shifting properly. I got off the highway and after stopping at a stop sign it wouldn't move, so I gassed it and it slammed into gear - I couldn't get it to go faster than about 20 mph. I managed to get pulled off the road, however I tried to drive it in a parking lot and the same thing kept happening (reverse and drive both take at least 15 secs to do into gear unless I gas it and "slam" it into gear). I am going to look into it and see what kind of fluid was used, but if it was the wrong fluid, can it be fixed by draining the fluid and adding new? or is the transmission a done deal? I can't afford another car right now, so anything I can try would be great! Thanks

3) Well if you've had the leak awhile and have added fluid in the past and all was well , then it's quite possible the fluid used by your bf may have been the wrong type.Those transmissions are quite sensitive when it comes to the type of fluid used bec they have special chemical additives designed for that make of vehicle.These chemicals and transmission fluids are critical in how the transmission shifts and goes into gear so using the wrong fluid would cause shifting etc issues shortly after being used.

If anyone you know is handy with vehicles have them drop the pan and replace the transmission fluid/filter but try to use a original replacement filter kit on it.Chances are that will help the transmission start to work more normal but keep an eye on the particles inside the pan when you change the fluid bec if it has more then the normal wear and tear tiny specs of metal inside of it that may mean the transmission is damaged.Again normal specs of metal that are tiny are quite normal for any transmission that old and don't panic if you do see any.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way I really don't recommend every trying to flush the transmission on such an old vehicle.You also need to know that the transmission works best mechanically/electronically if the transmission control module is placed into the learning mode once any work is done on the transmission such as changing the fluid/filter.Many shops can do this for you some might even do it for free and also dealerships can do it for a fee so call around etc.Remember that this takes only a couple of mins to do and usually you have to drive the vehicle a good 250 miles before the transmission relearns.Note that once the fluid/filter is changed and the TCM is placed into the learning mode the transmission won't seem to be quite shifting right and this is normal while it relearns.It will hesitate or buck or kick or even stutter when going from 0-20 kph and from 20-40, 40-60,60-80, you may notice slightly higher rpms , just be sure not to push it much more then 3,000-3,500 rpms. . - helpful bob

2004 Chrysler Sebring Radiator Fan Not Spining on Low Speed?

2011-06-04T19:40:00.001-07:00

Question 1
2004 Chrysler Sebring Radiator Fan Not Spining on Low Speed?... my cars has recenlty been getting hotter than before...The temperature needle goes up to just a little under the halfway mark...When the ac isnt on i never hear the fan turn on but when the ac is on i do but it turns on and off on and off...it turns on for about 5-7 sec...Not sure...I thought the fan would be on at all times while the ac is on at low speed...when i hear the fans turn on it sounds fast...The needle goes up while im in city driving...when on the expresssway and when the car is parked idling it seems fine....I changed my water pump and radiator cap and coolant recently but nothing has helped until i read about the fans.....Does anyone know where the fuse or relay is for the low speed fan control?? or can it be the engine coolant temperature sensor?? I have no Check Engine Light On...

I know theres fuses on the driver side panel and are labeled but the relays under the hood are not labeled....Does anyone have a digram and can help me out on checking this issue...Or should i just wire the fans direct and have them spinning at all times?????

Answers
1) Mm... Is that what you are looking for? http://giftchoice.info/111813/engine-coolant - Witt Mcpherson

2) It is an electrical problem. Your chryslers fan spin very fast when the car gets hotter than usual. Your primamry fan, the one that turns on when the engine is warm is not functioning correctly. The other fan is for when the ac is on or when the temp gets hot. That fan is doing its job to prevent your car from over heating. Replace your fan and the temprature sensors. Also replace relays. I have a chrysler to. Don't wire the fan. It will turn on both fans on but at the incorect. temprature causing car to warm up. - Adam Reyna

3) Call up a dealership service/parts department they can tell you exactly where the low fan relay is located, plus they can give you the part number.More then likely the same fuse feeds both the high and low fan systems and you'd be looking for a 30-40 amp fuse.

Normally if the temperature gauge hits just before the half way marking the low fan should engage, this is due to the main comp reading the coolant sensor resistance and then the comp sends a on signal to the low fan relay and the relay output is sent to the fan.You mentioned that it seems to idle okay and normally the engine would off got hotter then normal if the low fan didn't engage but once the temperature gauge went much above half way the high fan should of engaged.Also the A/C will cause the high fan system to engage but it's designed to only stay on until the engine is a certain temperature and the engine maybe changing temperatures a lot due to the A/C being on and due to the low fan perhaps not working.

Some systems can develop bad grounds or bad connections, the wire can fray or melt or be damaged especially if the vehicle is a few years old and the fan system may have a module in the circuit that can also cause problems.Again a dealership should be able to tell you if any fan modules exist and where it's located but it's common for them to be located the lower fan housing.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way you don't mention changing the thermostat and usually I recommend changing it when you change the coolant or pump.You may have air in the coolant system one way to help bleed the system is start up the engine when it's cold.Remove the rad or reservoir cap then stand back keep your eye on the temperature gauge, watch for the coolant to start over flowing, this should help to bleed any air or air locks out of the system.Once the coolant over flows shut off the engine, top of the coolant but check the coolant quality/mixture with a anti-freeze tester.The anti-freeze you use must be what is stated via the ownership or dealership and you should have it mixed 50/50 or for -40c.It's vital that the coolant mixture is correct bec this can also cause a engine to run hotter then normal, also using distilled water is recommended instead of using regular tap water. - helpful bob

2009 chysler town and country won't start?... Had baterry checked out and was told it was good (12.8 amps out of a total possible 13,2 amps) but the only van starts is when it is jumped.any ideas?

Answers
1) Check transmission - ATLBaller4Life

2) Bad battery or poor connection. That's volts by the way not amps and it means nothing. Even a dead battery indicates 12.8 volts. The battery needs to be load tested which shows how many amps it can provide. A battery needs to provide about 400 amps to start a car. As a battery ages it provides fewer and fewer amps until there's not enough to start the car. - Howard L

3) Who ever checked th battery needs to put a load test on the battery after it is charged for a few hours. If it can handle a load of 200 amps for 15 sec. it is good. If not replace it nothing works like new parts. Check the starter draw also after you get some battery. Your starter might be a problem and drawing too much amperage. - Donny

4) Clean up the battery terminals. But I have a suspicion the battery has a dead short when under load. When you jump it and get it running, check what the alternator is charging at, should 14 to 14.5 volts. If it is charging at 16 volts, replace the battery. This will toast the alternator in the long run if charging at full capacity all the time. Hope this helps. - clowdy4

Answers
1) You can sometimes find the manual for your car online. They can be hard to find though so it could take some looking. Or open the fuse panel where all the fuses are for your car. They are generally under the dash on the side of the dash where you open your door. They can also be in the glove compartment. It will say fuse box on the panel and then just pull that off and it will have a diagram for which fuse goes to what. Hope that helps. - jaric

I don't know anything about cars and just based that on what i saw in 2 fast 2 furious movie. She said that i was wrong and that that was called top down and that convertibles were the ones with the steering wheels on the right side of the car. We were fighting about it all night. I said she ask her friends and one said I was right while the other she. So can anyone tell which one of us is right? it would really help my neighbors when my friend and i have a movie marathon at night cause it will "sorta" quiet us down a little. Thanx in advance! ;)

Where is the crankshaft in a 2004 Chrysler Concord 3.5L?... So my mom is looking for the crankshaft in her car, the info is in the question title so if you can tell me where the crankshaft in the car like the complete location.

Answers
1) oh god...Um you cant see the crank from just opening the hood, its in the engine http://www.caiecq.com/images/+Crankshaft.jpg
even if i listed step by step how to disassemble the engine and locate the crankshaft, if you know nothing about cars it wont help.

The crankshaft pulley on the other hand you can see if you look down the front between the grill and the engine, its the biggest round metal wheel on the bottom with a belt on it.

Edit: apparently Mike thinks your engine is transversely mounted, I'm pretty sure its not, it goes front to back http://images.copart.com/website/data/pix/20110118/10571791_7X.JPG - Xnebia

2) The crank shaft is on the inside bottom of the engine, In your car it runs from Passenger side to the Driverside, where it connects to the inside of the transmissions bellhousing.

The only visible point of the Crankshaft, is a pulley attacked to it on the passenger side of the engine which is actually the front of the engine on front wheel drive cars. This pulley will be centered with the engine, on the lower portion, under all of the accesories such as the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, ac compressor. To see a picture of a crankshaft, go to Advanced auto parts website and type in crankshaft in the search window to see what a crankshaft looks like. - Mike S

3) Lolololololololololololololololololololololol The crankshaft is buried in the motor, you have to disassemble the entire engine to find it. - BIGDOG

4) If I recall right it's on the left side of the engine, behind the exhaust manifold , if you see a round piece of metal with several bolts going all around it, just before that is a sensor with 4 wires running to it that's the crankshaft sensor.

How do you get to the rear speakers on a 1988 Chrysler Le baron K-body?... It looks like the speakers are mounted from the top. I need to know how to get the carpeted cover off to get to them for removal.

Answers
1) You'd have to remove the rear back piece of the rear seat, panelling and then gain access to the carpet so you won't damage it etc.Most of the time however the rear speakers are mounted from underneath and there is are metal clips that hold them in place so the speakers and wiring are accessible via the trunk.

Hope that helps and best of luck. - helpful bob

2) You need to remove the rear seat which is bolted in. The bottom part of the seat is bolted from the front bottom near the floor. The seat back is bolted in on both sides bottom of the seat back. After unbolting the seat back lift straight up to unhook at the top. The carpeted cover over the speakers snaps into place with about four snap down clips. Under this are the speakers, there are four screws holding each down. - Donny

Question 5
Engine light is on sometimes, but not always in my 08 PT Cruiser, why?... Im not sure if it is the actual engine light, when the car is on there is a orange symbol that looks like this --> ( ! ) under the "D" indicating that the car is in drive. Sometimes it lights up when the car is started, but sometimes it doesn't. Im wondering what could cause this. Because if something was wrong, wouldn't it be on ALL the time(when the car is on)??

Answers
1) Pt Cruisers are very tempermental vehicles. Just because the check engine light is on does not necessarily mean that the problem is big or expensive. You should really consider having the (OBD) On board diagnostic system checked for accuracy. The diagnosis will indicated codes and causes of the problem. Many of the Pt Cruisers I have worked on are known for leak pump detector problems for emissions.

Places like advanced automotive and pepboys are very good about running scan checks for free. - Frank

2) The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) is detecting low inflation on one or more of your tires. Don't rely on the visual look of the tires. Have the pressure checked. Tire pressure changes by 1 PSI per 12F of temperature change.

See page 5, 227, 332 of owners manual at the link for info on the TPMS. - Mike B

trapped water in my Chrysler Seabring 1998 convertible.?

2011-05-19T19:40:00.001-07:00

Question 1
trapped water in my Chrysler Seabring 1998 convertible.?... After a MAJOR rainstorm last night, I entered my car this morning to find a puddle of water about 2 inches deep in passenger side of vehicle. It seems that the water is trapped in the right rear quarter panel. The interior of my car isn't wet (except floor) there doesn't seem to be any water leaking in from front and trunk is dry. When I make any turns you can hear water sloshing around. Anyone know why this might be happening and what I might do to fix it?

Answers
1) You need to clean out the drains on the rain rail. As for what is down in the panels, there might be a drain plug that can be pulled in the area to let the water out. You will have to look for it. - Old Man Dirt

2) does it have rear window on that side then possible water entering from window molding or the window was left down a hair or possible small hole in the top clean it up and make sure everything closed have someone in side with flash light and someone on outside run water in that area and see what happens - bo

3) There are several small drains under your car, you will have to get under and clean them out. - Dennis

4) You have a few water drains on each side of the car along the rocker panel and on the right and left side of the trunk. They're most likely plugged . Push a small screwdriver in the drains or blow back with air pressure then stand back. - Donny

Answers
1) Id go for the 300c just because Ive never heard anything good about a Sebring from anyone that's owned one. - Xnebia

2) My family owns two Chrysler 300C's, a 2006, and a 2008.

The engine is a powerful engine, a 5.7 V8, makes anywhere from 340-370 horsepower. The 2006 makes 340.

It's a great car, and not just for the engine. The car is VERY spacious. In fact, just the other day I needed to work later at Starbucks and the lobby was closed, so I pulled the 2006 up to a spot in front of the store, and was able to work on my laptop in the backseat in comfort.

When it comes to mileage, our 2006 has around 93k on it. What you MUST do is keep it properly maintained (same with any other car) and it will last. Take it to the dealer, it's costly, but it will ensure the car runs ok (no I don't work for a dealer, we just always take them to ours to make sure) - Branden W

3) I would go with the lower mileage car - Donny

4) Go with the 300 all the way! you won't regret it. - chasm

Question 3
Can someone please help, 2006 PT Cruiser!!?... last week, when i went to the store my car wouldn't start and the transmission light was on. I though huh, it never does this so i tried again and it started the transmission light went off after a bit. So yesterday!, i was leaving the driveway just made it up the road came to a hill i accelerated to 40 and it started jerking back and fourth, its an automatic. It felt like it was bogging out. Im used to power so it completely caught me off guard. Don't be alarmed its not my everyday driving habits. So it did it a couple more times. Only going up hill. To my surprise!!, the transmission light was on again. It wasn't over heating and i had plenty of gas. So we brought it into the garage, we took off the oil pan there was plenty of oil it was a little dirty and there was a steal piece, we bought a new filter. were currently installing everything. I was wondering. is there anyone out there whose familiar with these cars who could shed some light on the situation. Were worried that maybe the steel piece was a c clip or something, will this mean the transmissions done? Should we hook it up to a computer?? please help!!

Answers
1) i dont have that kind of car but mine was doing that and i took it to a shop and found out my transmission went out i hope this helps! - Candace

2) It could mean the transmission is failing, but it could also mean that the person working on the transmission placed it there to sell you a new transmission. This happens more often then most people realize. At this point you can just drive the car and see what happens. Replacing the transmission more then likely will not cost any more if you drive it till it breaks, there will be an additional tow bill. But due to fraud by transmission shops it might be worth the gamble. - Old Man Dirt

3) Well something is broken in the transmission, there should have not been a piece of steel in the pan. Cut the filter open and see if there is more metal in there I bet there is. It could be a clip, piece of hydraulic valve, piece of gear, clutch pack, spline, piece of the pump, or any other important piece of metal. Yes this is a clue that your transmission is not going to go much farther before it leaves you stranded, Hooking it up to a computer may tell you what code it is throwing but this may not be exactly whats wrong, the only way to find out whats wrong is have the transmission looked into at a shop.

It might be an easy fix, or it might need a rebuilt transmission.

Take the piece you found to the shop that you want to have it fixed at to show them what you found. Also if you find any other pieces in the filter show them that too.

I would not drive it to the shop have it towed. - BigeQ

2) The last thing you want to do is take a vintage car to a new car dealer. For the most part the mechanics at these places are right out of school - because they work cheaper than experienced mechanics. These guys wouldn't know what's going on with your car. None of them was even born when your car was on the road as daily transportation. There's no computer to plug into to get a diagnosis. Contact the WPC (Walter P.

Answers
1) I have been a chrysler tech for about 7 years and have just about seen it all my advice would be hell no but im sure there are plenty of happy sebring owners out there that would disargee I now work for Toyota and I would have to say that is the better choice it may cost more but in the long run your better off with a Camry or a Corrola maybe a Honda Accord or Civic Nissan Altima or Sentra. I know its bad to trash American cars like that and I hate to do it but those are the facts not all American cars are bad like that the sebring that year has a Mitsubishi engine if it has a 2.5L V6 witch had many problems like oil leaks from every point it had a oil seal and distributer electrical problems the 4cyl engine is the better way to go if you are set on buying a Chrysler car - Dennis

5) It would depend on how high the mileage is . Look at the oils to see if they are burnt. Does it smell inside the car? AC could be leaking.

Why does my Plymouth starts to shake at 50-55 MPH?... I bought this Plymouth Acclaim for 400 dollars and we registered it and put a new muffler on to pass inspection etc.. The car runs great but once we go 50-55 MPH the car starts to shake horribly like a flat tire. Funny thing is under 50 it does not shake and it is smooth and it drives straight and when it is above 60 it is still smooth and it drives great. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you very much :)

1) Most likley the wheels need to be balanced or rotated. It could also be just old tires I had problems with my alignment and it was solved with a new set of tires and a balance which is usually standard with purchase. - Zeke1r

2) Check the balance on all four wheels before doing anything else, and get them balanced if necessary. Also check the shocks, and if any are worn, replace them. Zeke is right about having the alignment checked, front and back, as well. Those three areas are responsible for almost all speed-sensitive vibration. - TitoBob

3) You should probably get your tires balanced because sometimes a little bit of weight difference can only be noticed at higher speeds, other than that I can only think of an bad wheel alignment but I would probably check your tire balance first. Hope this helps. Thanks, Peace.

5) You might have a wheel weight missing from one of the wheels. Is the shaking mostly in the steering wheel or is it more noticeable in your seat? If in the steering your front wheels are out of balance and if you can feel it in your seat the rear wheels are out of balance or the problem is in the rear area. I would also think that if a CV boot is ripped all the grease will be gone, you can count on the CV bearings bad. - Donny

Question 3
Wanting to change halogen bulbs?... I have a 2007 Chrysler Sebring with the 2.4L. I want to change the current halogen bulbs to LED. What I want to know is if I would be taking a risk of damaging a controller if there is one or wasting my time cause of a logic issue with the controller detecting the low amperage and shutting down the circuit? I have read that some cars have the CAN running the lighting system and I attempted the change with the high beam bulbs and the car would shut the circuit down while the car is in control.

The reason for the change is I wanted to utilize the LED bulbs in conjunction with my emergency lighting. I was going to put diodes in place to prevent backfeed to the car system.
Thank you for the input as far as the light not being legal but I'm seeking to replace 3157 & 921 bulbs with LED versions. Like I stated early my concern is the car systems (CAN) if it controls the lights in any way to damage the electronics of the car.

I have a 2003 pt cruiser. I have had the starter replace 4 times. Everyone says that is what the problem is.?... Sometimes it won't start. Twice I have been driving it and it completely dies. Everything, including brakes and steering completely stops. The whole thing shuts off. It is sitting in my driveway now and won't start. What could this be?

Answers
1) a starter wouldnt cause the car to die while driving, its sole purpose is to start the car. a bad starter would typically click once when u turn the key and thats it. whatever caused ur car to die while driving is probably related to it not starting. could be a bunch of things though, so i'd have it towed to a mechanic for proper diagnosis - Steven

2) It could be the ground connection. Follow the wire from the negative (-) terminal on your battery to where it is attached to the body of your car...sometimes they get loose or corroded. - Trashy

3) I believe that you have a bad ground connection unless you know where all the grounds are at it can get kind of confusing so unless you are confident in working on your own car i would take it it a local mechanic but not the same one you have been taking it to for the starter because they completely ripped you off with 4 starters because any real mechanic would know that a starter can not cause the random dieing the only reason to have a starter replaced is because it ether stops working completely or draws to many amps to work properly. so ya i think that you have a bad ground connection somewhere but i do not know where it is it could be lots of places - Bryce

How do you fix a coolant leak on a 99 Chrysler Cirrus?

2011-04-25T19:40:00.001-07:00

Question 1
How do you fix a coolant leak on a 99 Chrysler Cirrus?... Possible fixes?
Tips?
Advice?
I just bought this car about 2 months ago and 2 weeks after I bought it, I noticed a coolant leak. It was just a minor hassle at first, I just had to top off the coolant every couple of days. Then the car extremely overheated and wont hold coolant. I figured it was the water pump. I attempted to repair it myself, but had trouble. Is this something I could fix, or should I have the car taken to a shop? Thanks

Answers
1) Coolant leaks are usually the result of tubing. If you know absolutely nothing aboit cars, yes, tale it to a shop. But because of mechanic prices, I would try to find someone who knew how to fix it first :) - Rebekah

2) There's no answer for your question. You have to get it inspected. Have someone pressure-test the cooling system and figure out where the leak is. Then you can figure out how much it will cost. Don't assume it's the water pump. - Bill

3) get some coolant leak fix with the little beads in it, as soon as it stops leaking sell it. Chrysler products are junk; although they are smooth. Its going to happen again once you fix it. - James

4) First you need to make sure from where its leaking if the radiator is bad I recommend buying a new one and changing it yourself because mechanic is no superman and charges like is no ones business if you have the tools just be observant how to remove the part. - Mr.JollyJacksonAndrews

Answers
1) well first of all ur clutch is not working properly or probably ur gearbox is dead that are the only reasons - vineet

2) If you know what your kick down linkage is, take a look at this to make sure it is free . If it is seized on it won't let the trans shift up it will stay in low.
If this is ok look at the trans oil and smell it . If it smells burnt you need to get to get it to a transmission shop. you might look at a $2000.00 bill - Donny

3) Does it have a 3 speed or 4 speed trans? If a 3 speed, the throttle linkage could be stuck or you may have a bad speed sensor. I don't know if that trans had a governor yet but if it does, it can be stuck. If it is a 4 speed it probably is in limp-in mode (2nd gear). Have the fault codes checked to help with the diagnosis. Good luck. - Dennis

What would be a good trade in value on a 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited with no engine?

2011-04-20T19:40:00.001-07:00

Question 1
What would be a good trade in value on a 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited with no engine?... The question says it all. I took it to a dealer last night to trade in on a new car and the dealer offered $100 for it. I thought that was ridiculous. The inside is just about immaculate. Leather, sunroof, heated seats. I took some pictures on my phone just in case. The only problem is that the engine finally went out on it last week, so it needs a new one of those. What's your opinion? Thanks!

Answers
1) I agree with you bec some are offering much more in trade in values even if the vehicle is a scrap car. - helpful bob

2) Trade in value at a dealership is $0, they will just scrap it. The only reason they offer you $100 is to sell you another car, you can do better trying to sell it to some one that wants to fix it. Also you will get a better deal with "no trade in" - Dennis

3) I have a zero miles engine ready to install in your car so send me pictures description and a good price
touring or limited only
thank you - conejote_99

4) Check your local paper for junk dealers, most are offering $200-300 for a "junk" car. A salvage yard may give you a little more if the body and interior are in A-1 condition. - Don't know everything !

5) Depending on the mileage and condition, that car, running and driving, would be worth anywhere from about $2000 to $3500. The problem is that the car is not running, and it needs an engine. To put a rebuilt engine in would cost in the area of $2500, and a used (junkyard) engine would be in the $1400 range (if they can find a good one).

The dealer has no way to know if the transmission (a common problem) is good or not, nor can they test drive the car to find other problems.

A new car dealer is not going to fix that car. They will sell it to a wholesale dealer who may put a motor in it, or they may just sell it for scrap. The dealer really does not want your car. If is going to be more problems (having to tow it) than any potential profit is worth.

You have three choices.

You can sell your PT either to a private buyer or a junk dealer

You can donate your vehicle to a 501c3 charity and get a tax write off

You can have a motor put in the car yourself, and drive, sell or trade the running car - fire4511

6) It probably sold in 2001 so that makes it 10 years old. The Blue Book probably won't allow much even with the engine running. So maybe a salvage yard will give you more than a dealer. - Jackolantern

7) You're better off selling your car for the parts that remain. You'll make bigger profits by doing so. - мᴀD Dσɢ

Answers
1) In my opinion,

You should avoid a PT Cruiser.....many problems around 90k...Struts, control arms, multiple engine issues, not to mention the timing belt should be replaced around 90k and that is about $800. Do not avoid 4cyl cars they can be very fuel efficient and very reliable. Honda's, Nissan's, and Toyota's 4cyl are all very proven cars.

Good luck on your search - Clay c

2) You should look for a way not to buy it. You can make a car look great on the outside and the interior but keeping it running and dependable are two different stories. I have known two people that have owned them and they spent more on repairs than the car is worth. Keep looking and take any used car to a quality mechanic for an inspection before you buy it. - Norma

3) "And should I avoid all chrysler cars?" [fixed it for you]

Yes. Yes, you should.

Pt cruiser is a pile of something inside and out. Unfortunately they don't ship with a box of tissues for the crying you'll be doing on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. Don't think buying a new one will help you...they're currently having a problem with spontaneous combustion across the line. - Hank Scorpio

4) Avoid THIS car at any cost.

There are MANY good cars that will serve you better, most of them Japanese and 4 cylinder. Have a look at the old favourites, Corolla, Pulsar, Mazda 323. You can't go far wrong. Your dad is wrong in this event - sorry! - LarryO

5) I have 2 pt cruiser at the moment and i sold two in the past , and i never have any serious problems with any of them , i have a 2004 gt and 2003 ht with 70k miles not a single problem in the past year

i sold a 2002 limited 11k miles and 2001 limited 5 speeds 105k miles
yes i replace the lower control arms and timing belt but
almost all cars need a timing belt when they get near 100k miles

Question 2
Is PT Cruiser 2001 Limited worth buying?... Hello all, I've always been attracted to retro things - whilst I liked Mini Cooper once upon a time, I have shifted my attention to the now-discontinued PT Cruiser. There is one now for sale where I live in Australia with the following specs: 2001 PT Cruiser Limited, 97,000kms (60,273 miles) for AUD10,500. Low kilometre compared to the size of the car. My heart tells me to go buy it as I have been looking for one - but my head has been feebly trying to put a brake. My thinking is that if I end up disliking how the car runs in, say 2 years, at least the resell will still be relatively good considering the low mileage in the first place.

I would appreciate your opinions or points that I should consider. Should I go and buy it anyway?

Answers
1) check the owners manual for SUGGESTED maintenance schedule at various miles on the odometer.

100,000: change the timing belt. My mechanic was busy. Scheduled two weeks beyond reaching the 100,000 miles point. The timing belt broke at 104,000 miles. ($$$)

Transmission kit.... near 100,000 miles. - ET

2) http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Reliability.aspx?year=2001&make=Chrysler&model=PT%20Cruiser - Paul

3) Leave it alone. I bought mine a 2002, 3 years ago with about 72000 miles on it. Six months later after the warranty expired, the tranny went out. (common on pt's), after that it needed a fan, brakes, alt. and starter all in a period of 6 months. I just had to put a timing belt in as it's about to hit 100,000 miles (there suppose to last 95,000 miles) all this at a cost of about $6500, on top of what I paid for it. And this car passed CarFax.with flying colors. Beware. - mokimoto

Question 4
What do you think of the Chrysler town and country?... We are looking at a 2009 Chrysler town and country touring. We test drove it and currently have it on hold, but our deposit is refundable so we can change our minds if we really want. The van seemed nice to us. It has 30,000 miles and they are asking $16,988. We have looked at quite a few minivans and were actually planning on getting a toyota sienna, but this van seemed like a good deal compared to all the sienna's that we have found. We would have liked for it to have the built in dvd players, but that is really the only complaint I have with it. We can always add that later if we want. If you have had one or know anything about them I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks.
The van is from auction direct. They are a dealer sorta but the salesmen aren't paid on commission. They take the KBB price and add $400 I think.

Answers
1) Please do a true market value appraisal Here: (start at Appraise a Used Car)

Price seems low from a dealer. Ask for a carfax. And there is a reason why the Toyota's are more expensive (hint,hint) Good Luck

Get a carfax. Have you driven and inspected it? Do you get any type of warranty? Take it to an independent mechanic and have it checked (well worth the money). If they won't let you take it then pass on it. Hint... never fall in love with a vehicle. look at it as a vehicle to get you from A to B safely and dependently. - rr

2) If you are purchasing it in Ontario, ask for a sellers package. This will give you the last three owners. You can contact anyone of them to see what kind of maintenance was done. This vehicle was most likely a lease car, usually they are well taken care of. Lease cars get lots of exercises. If you want to be safe ask if you can take it to your mechanic to do a look over. - Donny

Question 5
Can I put a remote Starter in a Chrysler 300?... Was told had to leave key in ignition
The lock is on the dash not on the column but there is a chip in the key

Answers
1) Yes - Tompo

2) If you're talking about a "remote start", you don't have to leave the car in the ignition, but you DO have to put the key in before you get going, to unlock the steering column. This is available LOTS of places, and is adaptable to nearly any car, and is relatively cheap.

But what I THINK you want is a "keyless ignition/pushstart" where you don't need the key at all. This is a more extensive modification, and will likely end up making your car much less "theft resistant", due to rewiring and bypassing security features. - Scott

My 1995 Chrysler Cirrus alerts me there is a door open but there isn't...what do I do?...

Answers
1) If your so inclined pull all the dome light switches one at a time. These are the grounding switch for the door ajar light. As you pull each switch watch the light to see if it goes out. (leave the key on while doing this) - Donny

2) Like the other answerer said, check the switches. However, I would try opening the doors one at a time and pushing in the switch by hand to see if it reads the door closed. There may be more than one switch per door. My Neon had two switches per door, one for the light and one for the door chime. My drivers door was causing me a problem where it would chime the door chime with the doors closed and the problem is that the switch is not being pushed far enough to engage. I put one of those rubber bumpers, that go on cabinet doors to keep them from banging that self stick, on the door where the switch hits it and that took care of the problem.

I hope this works for you too. - Jim

Why Chrysler Sebring has such a horrible reviews?

2011-02-25T18:40:00.001-08:00

Question 1
Why Chrysler Sebring has such a horrible reviews?... I rented this car for a week and I fell in love with it. It had really comfortable interrior, leather seats, seat warmers, handling was very well designed and it appealed good on outside. My girlfriend and my other girl roommate tald me that this car looks better and they like it more than my roommate's new Hybrid Altima and new Civic. My girlfriend even thought it was bently at first, and she knows style so she wouldnt just say it on top of her thought. Now I got my Civic back from repair shop and she says that she misses Sebring. IMHO it looks better than any of that Jap mainstream cars on the roads like Camry, Civic or Sentra

Answers
1) because sebring is not really that good of a car - Andrew Haga

2) Bad reviews.. Because they will break in the drive way.. You don't have to be driving it.. They fall apart.. Union labor.. - Gus

3) In a look perspective and features, yeah the Chrysler Sebring is definitely a nice car aesthetic wise. Like you mentioned it has all the great appeal and look that isn't present in any of the Japanese models, which is basically an opinion, but I guess the horrible reviews come from the overall performance and maintenance in the long run. I don't think the Sebring, as many American cars are, last longer than the Japanese models, as they tend to break down in a few years or so, which rake up the maintenance costs to repair and so forth. But yeah, the Sebring is a beautiful car, as are many other American-made cars, I just don't think they hold up as long as the Asian models. - Greg Charter

4) The 2.7 had a horrible sludge issue. The new one is a POS that falls apart really quickly. The older gen ones do look pretty nice tho. There's a reason that they are so damn cheap in the used market. - Fribble

5) Had one for 165,000 miles, no real problems. Bought a newer one. It is not a sports car with great handling. Get the six cylinder and keep the oil changed. They seem to have a serious engine problem if the lower oil passages get clogged with sludge. Put the top down and cruise. - andy33020

6) I have been wondering the same thing. I drive a 2008 sebring sedan and I love it! i think it looks great and much more expensive than it actually was.

Question 3
1977 Chrysler New Yorker Problem?... The problem I have is that the car stalls and dies going down the road, like it's out of gas. But if I leave it set for an hour or two, it will start again. It was diagnosed as a distributor problem, but I replaced that. Any ideas from anyone familiar with Chryslers or this problem? Could it be a heat sensor?

Answers
1) could be the nylon fuel filter at the end of the fuel level. Every once in a while they will plug up and cause the engine to quite. - badbill1941

2) The 1977 New Yorker does not have a heat sensor and if you feel confident about the integrity of the ignition system, the problem is possibly fuel boiling in the fuel line from engine heat, a phenomenon known as "fuel percolation". This normally occurs during hot weather in slow moving traffic but it can happen during cold weather as well.

If I remember correctly and the fuel line to the carburetor has not been changed, a metal fuel line runs to the carburetor from the mechanical fuel pump mounted at the right front of the engine under the alternator, there may be a section of rubber fuel line somewhere in this but it is mostly metal. If this is the case wrap aluminum foil around the metal portion of the fuel line that is "above" or on top of the engine, the portion of fuel line from the fuel pump to the right side valve cover is not subject to as much engine heat as the portion above the engine. The "hour or two" of rest time will allow the engine to cool and the fuel in the line to return to its normal liquid state.

It is also possible the fuel pump is starting to fail or the strainer in the fuel tank is picking up dirt, rust, etc. and stopping the engine allows this debris to fall away from the strainer. - Don't know everything !

3) The '70s Chryslers had a couple gremlins in the electrical system - first place to check is the fusible link near the battery. They can fail completely, which just cuts your ignition, or they can fail intermittently (it will fail completely after a while). Grab the wire with the engine running and wiggle it, it will cut out if that's the problem. There is also a resistor block on the firewall that can cause intermittent problems, best bet is to replace it, it's cheap.

If that doesn't do the trick, start looking into fuel problems. The good news is that a fuel pump for that year is cheap and easy to change, not like the newer in-tank high pressure pumps. You cna get a cheap pressure gauge from Pep Boys or Autozone to diagnose your fuel pressure, it should run about 6-10 PSI while cranking. - nyninchdick

how do i get my 1999 Chrysler Concorde to start.?... The serpentine belt fell off and i dont know how to put it back on. As i was driving the battery light came on and the car died. Im not sure if thats all that could of caused the problem.

Answers
1) the belt was probly old and stretched or didnt fit so the belt was un able to turn the alternater to charge ur batery and that electronic stuff u should get someone who knows what there doing to replace the belt with the proper one and jump ur car to charge the batery and evrything should b fine - Sean

2) Have someone replace that belt and you'll probably need a boost , then charge up the battery by driving it awhile and it should be okay.If you look online on sites like auto zone or parts source they might have info on how to replace that belt yourself or ask at one of their stores or a dealership.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way if you look under the hood there should be a belt routing chart. - helpful bob

2) Don't listen to people who bad mouth a car only because of the manufacturer. All manufacturers have good points and bad points. How old is this car? Only replace the parts that it really needs. The sound system is the only thing I would upgrade much. - Dennis

3) another car - mokimoto

4) I'm not familiar with the convertible LeBaron but all in all the LeBarons were not bad cars as long as they were cared for by the previous owner(s) which applies to any and all vehicles. We have two and both have in excess of 150,000 miles, the '92 shows 160,000 and both four door sedans still run, the '92 needs a ball joint and the other was totalled in a fender bender but still drives. It was totalled due to age, a '93 model, parts and labor costs would have exceeded the value of the car, my daughter accepted the check less the junk value of the car and continued to drive it after I "repaired" the front marker light. She is now driving a one owner '00 Intrepid with less than 70,000 on the odometer.

Both LeBarons have 3.0 engines and three speed automatics, both burn some oil but I can accept that with the mileage displayed. If the car is sound mechanically and looks good cosmetically I think a nice sound system would be a good addition to the car.

The people I have spoken to personally that hate the Chrysler line of vehicles are the same people that will next week hate what they are currently driving, they do not have the ability, knowledge, or desire to maintain their vehicles. I can only assume the same for what I read here. - Don't know everything !

5) First off, I would like to say that the Chrysler Lebaron is NOT the worst car that you can get! I have a 1993 Plymouth Duster and they both have the same engines. Mine has the 3.0L V6, so I would recommend that. However, the 3.0L is notorious for its valve seals to go bad and start burning oil, so I would have them replaced. If you have the heads rebuilt this will take care of it. As for sound system, go with aftermarket, but you really have to know what you want for power and what kind of sound you want. I would talk to a pro on that one. Just don't let them sell you something that is rediculously expensive. All in all, this will be a great first car. Just take care of it and it will take care of you. - Miccah

Question 2
What does it mean if the engine light is on, on my 2002 Chrysler Town and Country Limited Edition?...

Answers
1) It means you need to take it to Autozone. They'll check your check engine light for free and tell you what's wrong with your car. - Kathrine

2) It means you should take it to a mechanic and get it checked. It could be a number of things. - setaian

3) Please read this website

http://www.2carpros.com/articles/service-engine-soon-or-check-engine-light-on-or-flashing

Kathrine answer is correct. If there is a Autozone close by to your place, they will check it for you free using the OBD II scanner. It will show a code usually starting with a P0___. This code will tell what is wrong with your car. Autozone can research it to their computer and explain it to you what is wrong with your car. Like oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, EGR valve, needs tune up, etc. If this light is ON, automatic you will fail the Smog test result if you need one to register your car registration. Do not go to a mechanic yet because they will charge you $50 just to check the code. For $50 bucks, you can buy your own OBD II scanner. I fix my own cars that is why I have my own OBD II scanner.

Once you know the reason for the trouble code P0___, at least you know what is wrong with your car and if you bring it to a mechanic, you have an idea and they cannot rip you off $$$ - D

4) I used to work as a mechanic, and not all mechanics will charge you to just check the engine light. Not everyone is out to take all of your money. However, yes, it could mean a number of things. AutoZone is a good place to get it checked, and yes they will do it for free. Also, the dealership can do the same thing. Dealerships own OBD II scanners that no one else does. They are specifically designed and sold to dealerships and they are far better than those of AutoZone and any small time mechanic. Hope this helps. - Miccah

is there any conversion kits to turn a automatic trans in to a manual? Chrysler b engine?

2011-02-01T18:40:00.001-08:00

Question 1
is there any conversion kits to turn a automatic trans in to a manual? Chrysler b engine?... i have a 440 with automatic

Answers
1) no they are too different and you would need to add a clutch pedal - the best thing to do is get a shift-kit installed - GDBear

2) They do make shift kits for some popular automatic transmissions. These kits will change it from auto to manual shifting. There is no clutch, but you have to manually shift from 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, etc. It requires removal of the trans and taking it completely apart. You will have to change plates and drill holes. It is expensive. Your better off trading in your car, for one with a manual. - WB

3) There has never been a kit that i've heard of. With a lot of money and hard work, you can add a clutch. - badbill1941

4) There is no way to convert an automatic into a true manual simply because of the engineering. A real manual has 2 shafts side by side for each gear, whereas an automatic uses sun and planetary gears. Some people have successfully added a clutch to an automatic, and coupled with a manual valve body (which doesn't take much to install, really), it would behave like a manual, but it wouldn't be as efficient as a manual. Best bet? Call Keisler Automotive and order a 5 speed TKO-600 kit for it and be done with it. - Sean

5) If you want to install a manual transmission behind your 440 (which is an RB engine, not a B) visit http://www.keislerauto.com/ for info. They have everything you need to convert an A, B, or E body (don't know if they have a conversion for C bodies) to manual transmission.

It won't be cheap but this is the easiest way to do it. - Don't know everything !

How do I find out if my 2009 Chrysler 300 Touring is AWD or RWD?...

Answers
1) it will saw awd on the back or just look under the car in front you will see two drive shafts going to each wheel - big mike

2) wet your driveway and floor it and ask somebody to watch the wheels - MCXD

3) 300 never came rwd they came fwd or awd - jim

4) Look for a driveshaft in the front of the vehicle or you can check the vin number against codes on the internet. The order of the numbers will tell you if it is awd or not.

And Jim the current body of 300 introduced in 2004 as 2005 model and including the current update are RWD with an available AWD option. Chrysler no longer builds a full-size FWD sedan. - Patrick

5) I don't know if it matters or not (it depends on where you are) if the car is a wagon or not. The 300 Touring is the 300 wagon in Europe, and was the Dodge Magnum in the US, with a different front-clip.

Anyway, if you are comfortable crawling on the ground, you should see drive-shafts behind the front wheels and a CV joint boot (looks like a black rubber Michelin man). Then you have AWD.
You can also call a Chrysler dealership with the VIN (from your insurance card) and ask them. They should be able to look it up for you.
If they can't do that, you can drive to the dealership and ask them to verify it and a mechanic will crawl under and look. - C T

6) its either going to be FWD or AWD. The only RWD is when its the 300C with the hemi but that can also be ordered in AWD. Just look at the back of the car by the trunk. All dodge/chrylser cars that are AWD. Have AWD plate on the back. - Matt S

Overheating problem.... 97 Chrysler Sebring?... I am about to buy a 97 Chrysler Sebring and the person said the car overheats a lot, because she left it in her driveway while she went to school. The car is $850... Am i getting a good deal and if so how can I fix this problem. I am a semi-mechanic so I don't know much!! I don't want to buy a junk car, because my mom just got out the hospital and I need transportation for her... So please someone help me with this problem. Thank You!!

Answers
1) run away as fast as you can..don't buy a car that probably needs at least a head gasket,,maybe a whole engine.. - pedro7of9

2) Could be water pump. - Dennis

3) Unless you have someone really good with vehicles that can check it over for you or a mechanic I'd stay way from it bec if it's sat too long thats never good for the brakes or engine especially the gaskets and also they might of damaged the engine from it over heating.Remember if someone says that it over heats slight even that probably means it has over heated more then slightly and if the person says it over heats a lot that means it's not just probably over heated severely but it's done it many times.Also remember that anybody that would let occur so many times probably doesn't maintain their vehicles in general very much either.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way I hope your mom gets better soon and if you want to learn about what vehicles to buy and stay away from check out the lemonade book it's a great eye opener for anybody interested in buying either a new or used vehicle and also it offers lots of very helpful info. - helpful bob

4) Please do not buy this car. Overheating causes engine damage. Those old Sebrings are kind of junky. Save up some more money, and find a Honda Civic/Toyota Corolla/Nissan Sentra...something solid and reliable. Have a mechanic check it before you buy. - Matt & Jenny H

5) Don't buy it. An overheating engine in those cars will probably be a head gasket. Talking $1500 for the V6.

if it has a turbo, stay away from it because it will surely be abused

is the chrysler 440 big block the only 440 engine chrysler made? is there any variations in them?...

Answers
1) There were several variants of the 440. The most notorious for performance was the 440 6-pack. Check my sources below for full descriptions. The Hemis were more powerful but required constant tinkering to stay in tune and reliable. Stellar motors though. - Joe

2) Joe has the answer. 440's were great motors, however they were known for their oil pump failure and it would almost always take out the bearings when it went out. The 440 was also the only engine that the oil pump could be removed and replaced from the engine without removing the pan. It attached through the outside of the block on the left front of the engine. I have changed a few. - Jackolantern

Answers
1) fulepump went bad.the gas is what keeps the pump from over heating and when you ran it that low on gas the pump started to get hot and it was just lick that it ran for a little while.on. - kawasaki

2) sounds to me like you might of froze a gas line, if it got that cold if not i would check the starter. or even possibly water in the tank. i would go to a store like walmart get a bottle of water dry from the automotive department put that in the gas tank and it should do the trick if it is water. if its a frozen gas line your gonna have to warm that car up find a garage with heat or you could rent a heated storage area.put it in there for a couple days. if its the starter most of the time it would grind and cut off when you try to start but not all the time. it could have just went out find your cylinoid touch the black bolt and red bolt together with a screwdriver see if it starts that way if it does. look into your cylinoid being bad. hope i helped a lil - sham

3) You might have a few problems. First of all, when you put fuel in your car ,before you insert the fuel nozzle in your tank, always look in the nozzle to see if there is snow in it. This will shoot into your tank and turn into water, thus freezing in the fuel system. You need to put some fuel line anti freeze. The other problem you need to give more explanation. Like is the battery dead now ? Does the engine turn over? Is the alternator belt on or loose? Battery cables dirty? - Donny

plymouth voyager shimmy / shake?

Question 1
plymouth voyager shimmy / shake?... i have a plymouth voyager 1997 has a shimmy in front end only when accelerating ive replaced cvc joins & tierods any ideas ?

Answers
1) tires struts - wimpy

2) My best suggestion is find a reliable shop that offers free estimates and have them show you and explain exactly what is faulty.One thing you can do is move the steering wheel slowly left and then right see if you can feel something in the steering wheel or hear noises bec that could be a strut problem.Check the tires over closely be sure that their the proper tire pressures, also that the tires arent wearing funny or worn bec that too can cause that problem , plus tires that aren't balanced properly or a front end that isn't aligned properly or is loose can cause that too.Put the vehicles emg brake on , jack up the front end, use stands and then try holding the front left wheel at 3 and 9 oclock with your hands then try moving the wheel with each hand see if any play exists, check the front end parts when doing this to spot the problem.Do the same at 6 and 12 oclock and then spin the wheel listen to it and watch how freely it moves etc.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way many different things can cause that problem and if you see any flat or dried out or damaged rubber boots on a ball joint etc that can tell you there could be a problem with that part.Just be sure to check the tires fully and that the wheels are balanced, plus ask about the rims be sure their not warped etc.I'd also check the engine mounts, check the brakes over closely especially on the front end, plus check the rack and pinion and be sure that it's mounted solidly. - helpful bob

3) You will need to get under your van again to check the inner cv joint to see if it is loose(worn). If you replaced them with rebuilt joints did you check the replacements to make sure they were the same length. A problem with rebuilt joints.
Another thing to look for would be a warped rotor and a seizing calliper. This issue is most notable when accelerating when merging with traffic from a highway ramp. - clowdy4

4) Did you replace the entire shaft and joints on both sides. CV joints are the number 1 cause of shimmying on acceleration. If the CV joints are good, then you have a tire with a slipped belt. Also if you have bad motor mounts, it will cause this condition. All motor mounts (there are three)should be replaced at 100,000 miles to keep the drive line in line with the axles front wheels. - Jackolantern

Should I buy a Plymouth Duster?... I've been wanting to buy a classic car for years now, and I was thinking about buying an old duster like the 73 my Dad had when I was a kid. Buy I don't know alot about older cars, and needed some pointers.
Are there specific things to look for when buying a classic car, or a Duste specifically? Are there any common problems with dusters? What would be a good price to pay for one? (restored and not) And while I've never done it, would it be worth it to buy and restore one myself?
Or maybe for some reason you'd recommend me to look into other car choices.

Hope to get answers soon.

Answers
1) I am not really an expert on the duster, but i do own some classic muscle. A big thing to look at when buying older cars is rust. Rust around the fenders and in the Engine compartment can really kill the resale value of the car, and damaged body panels on older cars can really be a pain to replace if your attempting to restore with original parts. like i said, my experience with a Dusters and Plymouths in general is limited, i'm more knowledgeable fords, and i'm just kinda speaking generally here. - Ryan Against

2) ask your dad - Camaro Hopper

3) I would think rust would be the main issue. Don't buy anything newer than a '73. Unless you want a hot rod, look for the slant 6, great engine. I had a '70 Valiant, similar to the Dart, but the Duster was a very similar car. The car was basic and bullet proof and quite fast for a 6 cylinder. - doane_nut

4) the biggest problem is, as others have indicated, is rust.

If you new to the car hobby, be aware restorations are, as a general rule expensive, and you are generally better off (from a $ perspective) buying a restored car than restore one yourself.

I agree with one of the other writers that if you are purchasing a Duster, a 73 should be the newest you should look at (a 70 or 71 would be a bit better)

It is a great time to buy with the economy down - you should be able to find a top notch car for around $10k. Make sure you have it looked at carefully by experts before you buy and don't buy the first one you see. Look around.

Ok my 1989 Plymouth voyager is having problems when i press the gas..i have changed my fuel filter recentlly and just changed spark plugs and TPS..it still stalls if I press gas down to hard..i have to slowly press it to move steady..any ideas???.

Answers
1) Sounds like a fuel related problem.You may want to get professional help. - badbill1941

2) Have a full diagnostic test scan performed by a mechanic or get a free scan done at a parts store etc.I'd want to test the fuel pressure, perform a compression test, check the vac hoses, vac lines, rotar,coil,cap,air filter, clean the throttle body/treat the fuel system,check the egr valve and any devices connected up to it, go over any and all wiring harness's especially the harness's that are located where their subject extreme heat bec a wire could be melted or damaged or corroded internally.

That vehicle may have problems with it's starter/charging wiring and connections from the battery,starter,alternator, engine block ground and any chassis or frame grounds.I'd highly suspect that unless someone has fully over hauled and replaced the main charging/starting system wiring that your vehicle is in need of it.You can go over all the connections, wire o-ring connectors, all the ground surfaces with a wire brush , sandpaper etc and either clean the mounting screws/bolts/nuts extremely well or replace them.Note sometimes it's just best to create or make brand new grounds using new wiring, o-ring connectors etc instead of trying to get the really rusty/corroded screws etc out.

That has a comp system and again the harness, wiring , grounds going to the main comp etc could be weak or faulty.Plus the comp uses certain grounds to feed ground signals to different sensors/comps etc so the comp's grounds is very vital and so are the positive 12 volt feeds from fuses , fuse box ,ignition, relays, etc.In fact if the vehicle was mine and I planned on driving it awhile I'd be getting a ground chart location diagram that will tell you where all the in vehicle, under the hood, dash area, trunk etc grounds are.I'd replace them especially the ones on the chassis,frame etc that are subject to extreme temperatures and moister etc.You could patch new grounds to the old ones if their cleaned/prepared and soldered then sealed.

The sensors plug in connectors may have rust or corrosion , again check/clean all the wiring and connections fully, watch for any wires that might have been fixed/spliced in the past.Also note that plugs or connectors can become loose or faulty due to vibrations, moister etc.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way when you installed the store bought spark-plugs were they factory recommended pre-spark gapped plugs , they probably were and it's not uncommon to find the new plugs aren't pre-gapped properly that's one reason why the spark gaps should be always checked as well as the whole new spark-plug before installing them.
A full diagnostic test should dectect the problem or at least help to narrow down the problem but really the main comp=PCM should of picked up or detected some kind of problem within the different devices and circuits but sometimes faulty grounds, wiring or comps can cause the system not to detect the fault or faults.Especially on those old models the comp systems arent very update to date or designed well enough to be able to detect some faults or error codes. - helpful bob

3) Sounds like a misfire.

You say you recently changed the plugs, did this start after you changed the plugs, or did you change the plugs due to this problem?

If this started after you changed the plugs, check the wires to be sure they're all on good and tight (check both ends), good idea to also check the plugs themselves to make sure they're all tight.

If the plugs and wires are all on tight, then check the wires themselves to make sure they're good. If the wires are old and/or cracked, replace them.

Remove the distributor cap and check the cap and rotor. If there's a lot of carbon build-up, the metal tabs inside are worn down, or if it has cracks in it, then replace the cap and rotor.

If all of that checks out good, then it's probably time to take it in and have it checked by your trusted mechanic. - Mark B

Getting a new car tomorrow. My husband wants a Chrysler 300, I want a Magnum. Which one is better?

Question 1
Getting a new car tomorrow. My husband wants a Chrysler 300, I want a Magnum. Which one is better?...

Answers
1) chrysler 300. - MissingYou! <3

2) THE one your buying - roc/WLA

3) sorry, no on a chrysler anything, I learned my lesson years ago, I had a really nice dodge charger, a three dollar part, broke, killed the engine while driving uphill, on a steep bridge in the pouring rain at 60 mph. no wipers no warning, nothing, I had the person with me looking out the side passenger window, and telling me how close the guardrail was, because I did not want to fly off the bridge, learn how to fly for two hundred feet, then go swimming next. I had to stop the car as fast as possible, I could not see. two minutes later it quit raining, I was broke down on a bridge on a freeway, fifty feet from the top of the bridge and a downhill exit, that literally if you went straight at the bottom took you directly into a tow truck tow yard, next to a pay phone. (and none of the tow trucks were there, they were all on call, what luck ehh?) nissan, honda, toyota or subaru - roger

4) a300 Drive one, got style,room and very good for me so far - lisa T

5) They are pretty much the same car, its just the magnum has the station wagon back end. The 300 has a bit softer suspension and a few little fake accents to make it look fancier than a Dodge. If you really mean 'new' you are stuck with the 300 because they quit making the magnum in 09 in favor of the Challenger. Dont be afraid of the R/T models, especially if you like the better interior stuff. The Rt's include most of the interior options and the Hemi V8. I have an 05 magnum RT that got rear ended so it was in the shop for a few weeks. My loaner car was a 300 with the v6. I drove it in the same way to the same places with the same loads as I carry in my Magnum with the V8 and averaged 2 mpg less with the 300 and the V6. The V6 is alright on power but the Hemi is really fun. I have got as high as 30mpg on the highway. Typical highway (70mph) is around 25. Around town not driving like a old person or race driver I tend to hang around 20. If I really drive crazy around town i can get it down to about 14. My car is just the RWD version and have had no problems with snow and ice, even a few times was pushing snow with the bumper and got through just fine so IMHO its not worth the extra cost, lower mpg, and higher repair costs of having the AWD. These cars are so low to the ground I dont think the AWD helps that much anyway. You get snow up to the bumper / bottom of any car I dont think it matters how may wheel drive you have the only way out is to get more clearance with the ground... which is why we have trucks, jeeps, and other suv's. Other side note is the Magnum RT's can get a tow package to tow in the range of 3500 pounds. I believe the rest of the cars can only tow 2000. Lots of trailers weigh more than 2000 but 3500 covers many small boats and campers, even a medium size u haul trailer works. Pulling a 3000 pound enclosed trailer I do about 15 mpg on the highway which is as good or maybe better than you would get with most trucks or SUVs without a trailer. - doornobk

6) You should also consider that such a car may be expensive to insure. Check your insurance rates before buying one, for example here - carquotes.sinfree.net - Jimmy

Question 2
Strange town and country transmission issue?... My 05 town and country was working great never had an issue with the transmission. I parked my car while my wife got it than put it back into drive after she got in. as i drove away the check engine light came on and i noticed it wasnt shifting when i reached a normal speed it would shift at. It appears to be stuck in 2nd gear for no reason. There was no warning signs any ideas.
Shift solenoid if that's it how much does it cost to repair?

Answers
1) Shift solenoid - ?

2) Don't go throwing parts at it. That is the sure way to waste time and money. You need to take it to a shop that can read transmission codes off the TCM. The Trans controller told the engine controller to set the lamp on. Now you need to find out what the TCM code is. Don't take it to autozone or other parts store. They don't read the TCM codes and will tell you that there is a controller fault. Take it to a shop or dealer that has a good reputation and get a good firm diagnosis before you dump money into a repair that won't fix anything. - Mike J

3) its in fail safe which means computer recognizes a problem and puts the car in second gear could be a output or input speed sensor or the solenoid assembly or even wiring going to the solenoid assembly take to a transmission shop to have them check it find one at ATRA.COM - bo

4) Try http://digbeaut.com/344053/warning-sign . - willford cromie

5) Something in the transmission had a fault, and the computer put it into a limp mode to prevent further damage. Most common problem is the input and output speed sensors, or the solenoid pack, but it could be something else, too.

The only way to really know is to have the codes read on the computer. You could have the local parts store pull the codes, they can pull some of the transmission codes, but certainly not all of them. It's certainly worth a try since it's free, and if it doesn't work, then you can try a repair shop.

I would recommend the dealer, or a local trusted mechanic
I would also recommend against a transmission shop, but if you do take it to one, certainly get a second opinion if they say it's going to be something expensive (anything over a couple hundred dollars), of course, that goes for any shop, really.

If they say they can't figure it out without "going into it" or "Tearing it down" or something similar to indicate they have to do some dis-assembly, do NOT agree to it and take it somewhere else for a second opinion. This is a classic trick to get you to spend your money there, they'll tear it down for free, but when you don't do the work or say you want a second opinion, they'll charge you to put it back together hoping you'll say just go ahead and fix it at that point. I've seen cases where they did this, and never even took the transmission apart, just went for the rebuild or re-manufactured transmission sale. - Mark B

6) J believe the transmission has a safety set up that when there is a problem or code in the computer the trans won't shift higher than two. This is to protect the trans from blowing up. - Donny

Question 4
is a used Chrysler town and country van 2004 with 33000 miles worth 14000-16000 DOLLARS?... its never been in an accident...and its through a dealer..

Answers
1) No.
Go to NADA.com to find out what the car is worth. - seymore d

2) That to me is about the average price and really it all depends on how well maintained the vehicle was kept , plus what kind of warranty the dealership is offering.I'd for sure shop around and maybe consider checking out private sellers , plus look at a few different makes etc.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way due to the way the economy is and due to the fact it's still a buyers market out there I'd really do some wheeling and dealing and shopping around first before ever agreeing on on that price or vehicle.

Happy Holidays to all. - helpful bob

3) No way. Not for that van at that mileage.
That thing is 7 years old.......... - clark

4) Dealers' have a tremendous markup on their used vehicles especially now that the economy is depressed. I checked a local online new and used dealer magazine and found two '04's, one with 60,000 miles for $7495 at a used car lot and another with 37,480 miles for $10,800 at a Chevrolet dealership. This magazine covers Maryland, West Virginia, and Virginia.

My opinion, the price is too high, there is plenty of room for negotiation. - Don't know everything !

I have a 1996 Chrysler Concorde LXi, and the CV joint on the driver's side went bad. PLEASE HELP!!!?... I have a 1996 Chrysler Concorde LXi, and the CV joint on the driver's side went bad. The car made a grinding noise, and came to a stop. I couldn't move forward or reverse. We fixed the CV joint (got a new one), installed it, and took the car on a test drive. We got to the end of the block, stopped at the Stop sign, and the car wouldn't move forward or reverse again. What could the issue be?

Answers
1) Transmission problem, not CV joint. - Red

2) Check the trainyfluid, although if it made the grinding noise you mentioned, I am guessing the transmission is toast. - Sharp

3) you got a bad cv joint take it out and get yourself a new one instead of a used one ,if you let someone do the work they f*- ucked you .i would jump down their throatnand make them put you a new one in and i wopuld watch them do it. - michael

4) Anytime you change a CV joint always check the hub assembly to the tranny,... I dont know how long you ran with a bad CV joint, but jack the car up and rotate each wheel by hand or lug wrench. If they move there OK, but if not the tranny or defective CV joint will be your problem. Don'T forget this vehicle is14 yrs old or more............... - ?

How make 94 Chrysler LHS run better?... It has been stalling while driving it. I put in some Napa BG to clean out the fuel sys and I need to run that a while. But oil light just came on and I just changed the oil. What else can I do to make it run better? I just got the car and has not had maintenance for 50k+ miles. Should I change the spark plugs? What else? I just put in a new thermostat.

Answers
1) Take it to a local garage and have the computer system scanned for stored codes. Have them check the car out to see what needs to be done. 50K and no maintenance, not good. things are going to start going bad. $$$$$$$$$ out the window unless you are a mechanic and the labor is free. - Bobo

2) spark plugs. ignition coils if it has any. brakes. all filters. if its carburated you should clean that. - dpelt73

3) Performance mods are not a very good idea on a vehicle that is nearly 17 years old. You would be just asking for problems.

However there are a few things you could and should do.

First, a good tune up. New plugs. Nothing fancy. Fancy plugs do little to improve a stock engine. Use the same make and type plug originally installed from the factory. Usually platinum plugs. Install a good set of spark plug wires at the same time. Again, nothing fancy but don't go cheap either. The parts store will usually offer a few sets of plug wires with various prices. Select a mid grade set and they will work fine.

TIP: When installing the plugs put a small amount of anti seize compound on the threads. A little goes a long way. Don't get any on the electrodes. This will make them easier to remove in the future. Put a small amount of dielectric grease in the spark plug wire boots. This will help seal out moisture and make them easier to remove in the future.

Change the air filter. Again, nothing fancy. The stock air filter will supply the engine with all the air it will need.

If the car is equipped with a mass airflow sensor clean it with Mass Airflow Sensor cleaner. Don't use anything like carburetor cleaner or you will destroy the sensor turning a $5 repair into a $50+ repair.

It may be a good idea to replace the oxygen sensor(s). These should be replaced from time to time.

Add a can of Sea Foam to the fuel system. This will clean out your fuel injectors. After the first tank of Sea Foam replace your fuel filter. Every couple of tanks of fuel add about 1 ounce of Sea Foam per gallon of fuel. This will keep your fuel system and intake clean.

Spray some Sea Foam Deep Creep into the throttle body while the engine is running until it stalls. Allow the engine to sit for several minutes and restart. This will clean the carbon from your plenum, intake manifold, and around your valves. The engine will be difficult to restart and will most likely smoke for a few minutes. This is normal.

About 50 miles before your next oil change add about 1 ounce of Sea Foam per quart of motor oil. Drive normally. This will help clean sludge deposits from inside your engine. If you oil pressure light starts to come on, immediately change your oil and filter. This would be because the Sea Foam washed enough sludge that it may block your oil filter. However this is an extreme condition and would be unlikely to happen.

With the age of this vehicle I would change the transmission fluid filter and transmission fluid.

Keep a close watch on your tire pressure. Too low tire pressure creates increased rolling resistance. Keeping the tires inflated to the correct pressure will improve performance and fuel economy.

If you can do all of the work yourself you could get buy with doing all of this work for less than $150. At least double this amount if you must pay a mechanic to do the work for you. - Mad Jack

4) First off, change the oil and filter. This is very important. You need to change the plugs and set the gap after you clean the t-body at the air intake . Spray some kind of carbon cleaner in the throttle body and on the inside and on the ISM idle speed motor. I use a old tooth brush to scrub the inside of the t-body. Clean off the throttle plate(butterfly valve) run the engine after doing this to clear out the cleaner, this should make it idle better - Donny

5) dont feel bad even the new ones have those problems - ?

6) Go back in time and slap the bejesus out of the engineers who designed it. - patrick_hiestand

Where can I buy a new Brake Master cylinder for chrysler Voyager in uk?

2011-01-01T18:42:00.001-08:00

Question 1
Where can I buy a new Brake Master cylinder for chrysler Voyager in uk?... I have a 1998 chrysler voager. I bought the Car second hand 2 years ago and there has been a problem with the brakes Since I got it. I have taken it to different garages countless times and they keep saying that it is different things. I have had nearly every thing to do with the brakes changed and they have been bled countless times and the brakes work for a few days to a week. Then the break pedal goes soft when the engine is on. The break pedal is always hard when engine is off. I last took it to the garage a month ago they changed the claipers and brake pads and did a few other things. When I went to get in car when picked it up from garage the break pedal was still soft. I complained and they took car away and bought it back 10 minutes later and I asume they just bled breaks. It fixed breaks for a couple of days the break pedal went soft again. I think it is the master cylinder. and have asked them to replace but I keep being told its not. I have changed master cylinders on other cars so know what im doing and have some time on my hands in the new year so thought I would change the master cylinder my self. Does it sound like it the master cylinder to you and also where it the best place to buy a master cylinder for a 1998 chrysler voyager in the uk.

any advice would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance
I have just been to the parts co website and can't see any thing about master cylinders and can't see how you order any thing. When you click on a product it just shows a picture. It does not give you a option to orer part. How do you order from partco online or can you not order online.

I don't think the servo has been checked could it be that

thanks for the advice so far

Add a can of Sea Foam to the fuel system. This will clean out your fuel injectors. After the first tank of Sea Foam replace your fuel filter. Every couple of tanks of fuel add about 1 ounce of Sea Foam per gallon of fuel. This will keep your fuel system and intake clean.

Spray some Sea Foam Deep Creep into the throttle body while the engine is running until it stalls. Allow the engine to sit for several minutes and restart. This will clean the carbon from your plenum, intake manifold, and around your valves. The engine will be difficult to restart and will most likely smoke for a few minutes. This is normal.

About 50 miles before your next oil change add about 1 ounce of Sea Foam per quart of motor oil. Drive normally. This will help clean sludge deposits from inside your engine. If you oil pressure light starts to come on, immediately change your oil and filter. This would be because the Sea Foam washed enough sludge that it may block your oil filter. However this is an extreme condition and would be unlikely to happen.

With the age of this vehicle I would change the transmission fluid filter and transmission fluid.

Keep a close watch on your tire pressure. Too low tire pressure creates increased rolling resistance. Keeping the tires inflated to the correct pressure will improve performance and fuel economy.

If you can do all of the work yourself you could get buy with doing all of this work for less than $150. At least double this amount if you must pay a mechanic to do the work for you. - Mad Jack

4) First off, change the oil and filter. This is very important. You need to change the plugs and set the gap after you clean the t-body at the air intake . Spray some kind of carbon cleaner in the throttle body and on the inside and on the ISM idle speed motor. I use a old tooth brush to scrub the inside of the t-body. Clean off the throttle plate(butterfly valve) run the engine after doing this to clear out the cleaner, this should make it idle better - Donny

5) dont feel bad even the new ones have those problems - ?

Question 3
Getting a new car tomorrow. My husband wants a Chrysler 300, I want a Magnum. Which one is better?...

Answers
1) chrysler 300. - MissingYou! <3

2) THE one your buying - roc/WLA

3) sorry, no on a chrysler anything, I learned my lesson years ago, I had a really nice dodge charger, a three dollar part, broke, killed the engine while driving uphill, on a steep bridge in the pouring rain at 60 mph. no wipers no warning, nothing, I had the person with me looking out the side passenger window, and telling me how close the guardrail was, because I did not want to fly off the bridge, learn how to fly for two hundred feet, then go swimming next. I had to stop the car as fast as possible, I could not see. two minutes later it quit raining, I was broke down on a bridge on a freeway, fifty feet from the top of the bridge and a downhill exit, that literally if you went straight at the bottom took you directly into a tow truck tow yard, next to a pay phone. (and none of the tow trucks were there, they were all on call, what luck ehh?) nissan, honda, toyota or subaru - roger

4) a300 Drive one, got style,room and very good for me so far - lisa T

5) They are pretty much the same car, its just the magnum has the station wagon back end. The 300 has a bit softer suspension and a few little fake accents to make it look fancier than a Dodge. If you really mean 'new' you are stuck with the 300 because they quit making the magnum in 09 in favor of the Challenger. Dont be afraid of the R/T models, especially if you like the better interior stuff. The Rt's include most of the interior options and the Hemi V8. I have an 05 magnum RT that got rear ended so it was in the shop for a few weeks. My loaner car was a 300 with the v6. I drove it in the same way to the same places with the same loads as I carry in my Magnum with the V8 and averaged 2 mpg less with the 300 and the V6. The V6 is alright on power but the Hemi is really fun. I have got as high as 30mpg on the highway. Typical highway (70mph) is around 25. Around town not driving like a old person or race driver I tend to hang around 20. If I really drive crazy around town i can get it down to about 14. My car is just the RWD version and have had no problems with snow and ice, even a few times was pushing snow with the bumper and got through just fine so IMHO its not worth the extra cost, lower mpg, and higher repair costs of having the AWD. These cars are so low to the ground I dont think the AWD helps that much anyway. You get snow up to the bumper / bottom of any car I dont think it matters how may wheel drive you have the only way out is to get more clearance with the ground... which is why we have trucks, jeeps, and other suv's. Other side note is the Magnum RT's can get a tow package to tow in the range of 3500 pounds. I believe the rest of the cars can only tow 2000. Lots of trailers weigh more than 2000 but 3500 covers many small boats and campers, even a medium size u haul trailer works. Pulling a 3000 pound enclosed trailer I do about 15 mpg on the highway which is as good or maybe better than you would get with most trucks or SUVs without a trailer. - doornobk

How clean heater core 94 lhs?... I want to clean the heater core but the hoses to that are so buried under stuff I can't get to them. What else can I do? Make quick starts to loosen up the heater core junk? Other ideas to get the junk loose in there?

Answers
1) It's seem you have too much junk in your trunk.
What you could do is unhook the heater hoses at the other end away from the heater. Flush out the coolant in there. Then add vinegar or CLR not both. Let it sit for a few hours and put the pressure hose to it. You will be amazed the junk that gets out of your trunk. - Donny

2) watch your step with getting at that "junk"/you get too aggressive and you can end up with water on the floor//take t/stat out/reclose the t/stat housing and then put a can of rad cleaner in the system and water/cover the front of rad with a blanket to get operating temp to normal/run engine at 2000 rpm for a minute at normal temp/drain rad and find the block drain and take that out/remove the t/stat housing (secure drains) and fill the block at the t/stat housing until its full 50/50/ mix/secure new t/stat and fill radiator to top/start engine and run until rad is warm/fill to top and install new cap and drive it around the block/wait awhile and then check rad level and overflow reservoir/top off and do it again around the block/watch temp ga and check for leaks - ken k

3) there,s another way and that is take the heater hoses off the block and water pump, take a garden hose and flush up into 1 hose and then the other hose. that way you don,t have to remove the hoses off the core. - bandit_60

4) You have no choice, just take your time.. Or cut the hose then use a reducer, with a metal coupling to connect them after you blow the heater core out with air.. - ?

Where can I buy a new Brake Master cylinder for chrysler Voyager in uk?

2010-12-31T18:42:00.001-08:00

Question 1
Where can I buy a new Brake Master cylinder for chrysler Voyager in uk?... I have a 1998 chrysler voager. I bought the Car second hand 2 years ago and there has been a problem with the brakes Since I got it. I have taken it to different garages countless times and they keep saying that it is different things. I have had nearly every thing to do with the brakes changed and they have been bled countless times and the brakes work for a few days to a week. Then the break pedal goes soft when the engine is on. The break pedal is always hard when engine is off. I last took it to the garage a month ago they changed the claipers and brake pads and did a few other things. When I went to get in car when picked it up from garage the break pedal was still soft. I complained and they took car away and bought it back 10 minutes later and I asume they just bled breaks. It fixed breaks for a couple of days the break pedal went soft again. I think it is the master cylinder. and have asked them to replace but I keep being told its not. I have changed master cylinders on other cars so know what im doing and have some time on my hands in the new year so thought I would change the master cylinder my self. Does it sound like it the master cylinder to you and also where it the best place to buy a master cylinder for a 1998 chrysler voyager in the uk.

any advice would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance

Question 2
How make 94 Chrysler LHS run better?... It has been stalling while driving it. I put in some Napa BG to clean out the fuel sys and I need to run that a while. But oil light just came on and I just changed the oil. What else can I do to make it run better? I just got the car and has not had maintenance for 50k+ miles. Should I change the spark plugs? What else? I just put in a new thermostat.

Answers
1) Take it to a local garage and have the computer system scanned for stored codes. Have them check the car out to see what needs to be done. 50K and no maintenance, not good. things are going to start going bad. $$$$$$$$$ out the window unless you are a mechanic and the labor is free. - Bobo

2) spark plugs. ignition coils if it has any. brakes. all filters. if its carburated you should clean that. - dpelt73

3) Performance mods are not a very good idea on a vehicle that is nearly 17 years old. You would be just asking for problems.

However there are a few things you could and should do.

First, a good tune up. New plugs. Nothing fancy. Fancy plugs do little to improve a stock engine. Use the same make and type plug originally installed from the factory. Usually platinum plugs. Install a good set of spark plug wires at the same time. Again, nothing fancy but don't go cheap either. The parts store will usually offer a few sets of plug wires with various prices. Select a mid grade set and they will work fine.

TIP: When installing the plugs put a small amount of anti seize compound on the threads. A little goes a long way. Don't get any on the electrodes. This will make them easier to remove in the future. Put a small amount of dielectric grease in the spark plug wire boots. This will help seal out moisture and make them easier to remove in the future.

Change the air filter. Again, nothing fancy. The stock air filter will supply the engine with all the air it will need.

If the car is equipped with a mass airflow sensor clean it with Mass Airflow Sensor cleaner. Don't use anything like carburetor cleaner or you will destroy the sensor turning a $5 repair into a $50+ repair.

It may be a good idea to replace the oxygen sensor(s). These should be replaced from time to time.

Question 5
2004 Chrysler Sebring Driving Vibrations ?!?!?!?... Ok so here's the problem....My car started to have this weird vibration problem, while driving as i give it a little gas to accelerate i feel this vibration...It doesnt seem to be a engine problem i recently gave it a tune up my engine light has never turned on...From a stop i can acceleratae and vibration starts at around 35mph and so on...NOW, i know its not my tires they are brand new and are balanced...It only shakes while i give it gas, while im at a steady speed its fine....The more gas i give it the more i feel it...So here's what i think it might be im not sure...i noticed grease on my rim so i looked closer and it appeasrs to be coming from my cv joint...can it be that the cv joints loss of grease is causing this? Like when i acclerate the cv joint spins since there is little or no grease its causing it to vibrate which is why i feel the vibaration at my wheel / s......Or can it be my wheel bearings...I hear this weird sound as im driving and turn slightly right to merge onto another lane when i center the wheel its stops if i turn slightly left it doesnt do that....So im thinkin it has to be something around that either the bad cv joint or a bad bearing but i think its the cv joint since grease has been leaking out of it for the past 3 weeks or so....and thats when i noticed the vibrations while accelerating...let me know what you think....My tranny has transmission fluid no oil leaks from engine or tranny....

Answers
1) if the cv is throwing grease around get it replaced and if you have a howling sound it could be a bad bearing take it to a garage and have them test drive it. - bacon boy

2) If it has a harsh shaking when accelerating but stops immediately when you let off the gas, it is a worn CV joint........Period. It is best to replace both complete half shafts at the same time. You can get re-manufactured at parts stores cheaper than new ones. - Jackolantern

3) The trans-axle shaft only need to lose one needle bearing and it will vibrate. If you see grease coming from the rubber boot , is cut and the grease is leaking out. The CV bearing won,t last very long without grease. Another cause for vibration could be Torque converter bolts coming loose, or the flex-plate is cracked where the bolts go through it. This will cause a vibration under load.
Wheel bearings will growl and will be more pronounced turning side to side while driving down the road. - Donny

Is it safe to buy a new Chrysler?

Question 1
Is it safe to buy a new Chrysler?... Is the company now safe from going out of business? This is a big purchase, I wouldn't want to end up with a car that could never be repaired or something like that...

Answers
1) by law most companies are required to make parts for 10 years after the last model year

5) To answer the question, Yes, Chrysler is just fine. They won't be going out of business anytime soon.
Chrysler's are great cars, you'll be very happy with it.

To the guy who says they have to make parts for 10 years, show me the law and I'll eat your hat.
There is no such law. When the part is gone, it's gone.
I'd be more worried about GM shutting down before Chrysler. - seymore d

6) I don't think you have to worry about Chrysler going under. Both Governments will not allow this to happen. Too many people would be out of work. Too many people are paying income tax to the Governments. - Donny

7) you will definitely be fine.other places would still be able to service your car, and anyway the government has proven that they won't let chrysler go out of business - D@ B!gg BosS

I lost my car key to a 2001 chrysler 300m, how much would it cost to get a replacement key?...

Answers
1) amazingkeys.com can supply this key for $17.94 for your 2001 Chrysler 300m. They have affiliates all over the country that can cut and program the key for you. They also have the remotes I would order a few extras so this will not happen to you again. Here is the link to the picture of the key and the description: - Bob R

2) With proof of ownership, your dealer can provide a key no. From there whatever it costs to cut a key. - badbill1941

3) Most dealers will sell, cut and program the key for around $60
The dealer I work at does this.
If you bring in your own key, we charge $10 to cut from code, $80 to program.
The car must be with you when the key is cut and programed.
It's cheaper to buy the key from the dealer. - seymore d

4) All the above! And here is a tip. If your key is a standard with out key fob built in, You can make an extra to hide behind the license plate using one of the plate fasteners to go through the hole in the key (which may have to be enlarged). That way if you lock your keys in the car or loose them, you have a spare. Just remember to use a plate screw that a coin (pennie) can take out. Pick one of the above for best answer. I was just letting you know how to save a little time and grief. I had 2 teenage daughters that were bad about locking their cars with the keys in the ignition. - Jackolantern

5) Any way you go, the car must be present...that means a tow to the dealer or a locksmith trip charge to come to the car. Expect $150-$175 all told. - Hillbilly Locksmith

4) It's vital that the anti-freeze is mixed properly and of the proper type and quality , it should be tested with a anti-freeze tester the mixture should be 50/50 or for a good -40c.Next you want to bleed the air out of the coolant system via the bleeder valve located on the thermostat housing or by starting up the engine cold and them removing the over flow cap , stand back, keep an eye on the temperature gauge and wait for the coolant to over flow, that should get the air out.Then shut it off , let the engine cool down a bit, top up the coolant and then start it up again , warm it up and try the heat again and later check the coolant level once again.

There are vent doors that work via cables/vac systems and one could be stuck or jammed , a hose could be loose or leaking etc.

The heater-core located close to the windshield under the hood has two hoses going to it and with the engine fully warmed up with the heat on these two hoses should be getting hot.Sometimes the heater-core has a air clog or clog inside of it and flushing the coolant system/heater-core can help.One way is with the engine cold switch the two hoses around and then start it up, allow time to warm up , put heat on full, switch the key off , wait a bit and switch the hoses back around.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way if the wrong thermostat is installed that could cause that problem too, plus if you see any gunk on the inner side of the windshield or smell an odd smell with the heat on that means change the heater-core.If you want to learn about how the vac and vents/heat/ac assembly comes apart or is set up or you need parts I suggest a U pull auto wreckers.

Happy Holidays. - helpful bob

5) Back flush the core with a water hose. If it still doesn't work, bleed the air out of the cooling system by opening the petcock on top of the thermostat housing located in the top, front of the engine. If this doesn't work you may have a broken blend air door. These doors are bad about twisting the door shaft into on these models I have had to replace a few. My next door neighbour just had his done this past summer. The problem is he was no longer able to get just the door replaced in the HVAC. He had to have the whole HVAC replaced. I guess Chrysler had used up all the doors. The actuator that opens and closes the doors is so strong that it will twist the plastic shaft in two! - Jackolantern

Question 4
2002 PT Cruiser. To replace timing chain, what should I expect in after market parts?... and non dealer mechanic?

Answers
1) I found $300. it has a belt and if it breaks at hiway speed, the engine could be damaged. the belt should be replaced at 100k and it is not a job for a novice - Mike V

2) It's a belt, not a chain. You should also get a tensioner also.
The whole kit from Mopar only runs $229
It's cheaper and a better kit than aftermarket.
As for labor, your looking at about 8 hrs. at what ever their hourly rate is. - seymore d

3) I would say the after market parts will do the job but the warranty might be less on the after market parts. - Donny

4) I retired from Chrysler about 5 years ago after working for them 23 years. I have found that a lot of aftermarket parts are just as good as factory. However, after saying that, I have also had to replace some aftermarket on cars and trucks that didn't work like intended! As far as the timing belt goes, Why would you want to risk a possible break down and engine damage to save a few bucks on a timing belt. All auto makers use high quality replacement parts for their vehicles.....Period. You can't find better replacement parts in aftermarket! If the repairs are of high priority, Always use original equipment parts from the dealer. Otherwise, it don't matter as much. - Jackolantern

how much would it cost to replace a transmission on a pt cruiser?

2010-12-28T18:42:00.001-08:00

Question 1
how much would it cost to replace a transmission on a pt cruiser?...

Answers
1) try this site (i've used it): http://topbiz2.notlong.com/7AAb2WC - Lavada Meyerman

2) if you remove and install the tranny your self you just pay for the rebuild which could run up to 1000 - drgcrtel

3) Probably $800 to$1,000. - badbill1941

4) A good shop or a Transmission place will put you in a rebuilt one for around $1,200 - $1,500 dollars. or a shop might find you a good used on. and work out a deal with you. call some local wrecking yards in your area. and see what the have and how much their asking for it. Good luck - Jimmy lee B.

5) If you get the transmission at Napa and then take you P T Cruiser to get it fix it would cost you a lot less
to get it fix about $700 to $1000 Dollars - Truck Stop

6) you're closer to 17-2100 dollars with a trans shop rebuilding it with a warranty of 12/12 and the updates a good shop will do - bo

7) You seriously considering doing that? It's a PT Cruiser. If so, figure a thousand or two. - jldude

8) Just something to think about but what exactly is wrong or happening with your transmission or what is occurring bec there are many misdiagnoses especially dealing with electronic/gear controlled chrysler/dodge products.Also be careful bec prices for the part/labour will tend to vary and sometimes factory upgraded replacement bands/gear/ parts are required to be installed in order to fully correct the problem.

I'd try to find a friend etc to help you and maybe pull a good low mileage transmission out of a vehicle like yours at a U pull auto wreckers bec I've seen transmissions that were rebuilt that didn't last for too long and sometimes you can get a good use one for 150-300 bucks then either install it yourself or just buy a shop to install it for you.I've seen transmission shops and mechanics do that job for 250-300 bucks but that's considered a really good deal and on average most want a good 450-600 and even 800 bucks just in the labour fees alone.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way there are some shops that will rebuilt it for you for as little as 800-1000 but again most charge a good 1200-2000 bucks.I'am curious what is happening exactly with your vehicle bec there are a lot of transmission control circuit problems that are mostly wiring or ground related issues and they can be the reason that even after transmissions are rebuilt etc and seem to drive or work okay for awhile but act up again.

Question 2
Is it safe to buy a new Chrysler?... Is the company now safe from going out of business? This is a big purchase, I wouldn't want to end up with a car that could never be repaired or something like that...

Answers
1) by law most companies are required to make parts for 10 years after the last model year

either way Chrysler is junk - nick

2) Even if they did go out of business, Chrysler dealerships aren't the only place to get a Chrysler vehicle repaired. Plus dealerships are more expensive than most garages if you didn't know that lol - ᵀᴴᴱ ᴼᴿᴵᴳᴵᴻᴬᴸ

3) I have a '92 Chrysler Lebaron, and it's a safe durable little car that Has lasted a long time.

4) Ya I think they're pretty "safe", still wouldn't buy a land yacht like that tho...there's way better choices, even domestics. - jldude

5) To answer the question, Yes, Chrysler is just fine. They won't be going out of business anytime soon.
Chrysler's are great cars, you'll be very happy with it.

To the guy who says they have to make parts for 10 years, show me the law and I'll eat your hat.
There is no such law. When the part is gone, it's gone.
I'd be more worried about GM shutting down before Chrysler. - seymore d

6) I don't think you have to worry about Chrysler going under. Both Governments will not allow this to happen. Too many people would be out of work. Too many people are paying income tax to the Governments. - Donny

Answers
1) amazingkeys.com can supply this key for $17.94 for your 2001 Chrysler 300m. They have affiliates all over the country that can cut and program the key for you. They also have the remotes I would order a few extras so this will not happen to you again. Here is the link to the picture of the key and the description: - Bob R

2) With proof of ownership, your dealer can provide a key no. From there whatever it costs to cut a key. - badbill1941

3) Most dealers will sell, cut and program the key for around $60
The dealer I work at does this.
If you bring in your own key, we charge $10 to cut from code, $80 to program.
The car must be with you when the key is cut and programed.
It's cheaper to buy the key from the dealer. - seymore d

4) All the above! And here is a tip. If your key is a standard with out key fob built in, You can make an extra to hide behind the license plate using one of the plate fasteners to go through the hole in the key (which may have to be enlarged). That way if you lock your keys in the car or loose them, you have a spare. Just remember to use a plate screw that a coin (pennie) can take out. Pick one of the above for best answer.

97 Chrysler Concorde code 12 and 43. Idles rough and gets horrible gas mileage.?... Have a 97 concorde. throws engine code 12 and 43. it idles rough and from 40 to 50 mph it feels like its gonna die. i am also getting really bad gas mileage. any help please?

Answers
1) go to a auto zone they can tell you - the truth

2) Get ready to buy some new plugs. The NGK's seem to do real good in the late model chryslers - Mike Loch

3) What engine is in that vehicle and what's the mileage, how do the gauges act and tend to read on the average? Example do the speed gauge or rpm gauge tend to be reading too high or are they flecuating.Maybe you've noticed real high rpms when the vehicle is shifting from 0-15 mph the rpms go over 3,000 and the car tends to stutter or jerk or hestitate , plus it will do this constantly as you reach hwy speeds, once at speeds of 60 mph the rpms go well 2,500 and seem to be 2,500 or more when going 65-70mph.Another thing is the temperature gauge where does it sit when cold started, when idling and warmed up and after driving it for 2-4 hrs?

I really recommend that you follow the spark-plug wires to the ignition module/coil pack and one by one remove them clean the surface with a wire brush and do this to every connector.The code 43 could mean that this coil pack is no good but try cleaning those connections first , if you need the coil I'd go to a U pll auto wreckers bec those are quite cheap to buy used and the wreckers should have many vehicles like yours with that same coil just pull one by removing the wires , unplugging the connector and it has a couple of screws either 10-11 mm that need to be removed.

Next pull the plugs one by one and if you've not replaced them lately replace them with the proper factory recommended champion plugs bec that is the best plug for those engines.I've personally tried a whole variety of plugs in those vehicles and none of the upgraded supposely better plugs made any difference in the mileage in fact I found sometimes you loose mileage lol.In my opinion there is one thing that Dodge did that really stands out and that is on the 3.5, especially the 3.3 engines they really have installed on the assembly line the best plugs for the engine.

Code 12 doesn't mean really anything it just means that the battery was disconnected within the last 50-100 starts, plus if you got code 12 and 43 you should of gotten a code 55 meaning no more stored codes exist or end of cycle.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way when going to the wrecking yard there are a few extra parts you should pick up , on the fuel rail there is a fuel pressure valve held onwith either a 7-8 mm screw and I recommend getting a few of them or at least two.The fuel regulator valve can cause poor gas mileage and I bet yours is probably no good, plus this part can add another 65 miles per tank.Here's a simple test fill up the tank till it's over full where the fuel is right up to the top then try starting the vehicle and if it runs rough wants to die out but then you restart it and it drives more noremal the fuel pressure valve is no good.Note you're not really suppose to over fill those tanks but this is a sure way to know if that part is functioning fairly well.Another way is when you remove the old one does gas seem to gush out bec if the gas doesn't gush out much that is another way to suspect that fuel pressure valve is faulty.

I know a lot about those vehicles in fact I've worked on those head to toe and have totally over hauled them and I can tell you there is several common faults with those vehicles that ppl tend to end up misdiagnosing or spending needless money on.So if you want my best advice pick up any fuses, relays, bulbs, belts,spark-plug wires,BCM,TCM,PCM, clusters, multi-function switches that you can find.What I'd do if wanting to fix that vehicle yourself , to save cash and especially to have a piece of mind and spare parts either buy a parts car from a tow yard or inbound lot or wreckers or privately or look for all you can carry U pull auto wrecking yards that off a flat low rate for anything you want for your car.If you can have a spare wiring harness that runs across the front end of that vehicle to inside the car handy bec those harness's really have several different wiring issues and on many of those vehicles that age they either need to be rebuilt/fixed or fully replaced.

I truly do love those vehicles in many ways and find them great cruising vehicles that can be fairly reasonable on gas mileage if their properly kept up and over hauled but deep down I'am still a Gm Man.Believe it or not but I've personally driven and seen those 3.3 engines giving over 28 mpg hwy and even with a combo of city/hwy driving included I've seen them give almost close to the same mileage or a good 18-22 mpg city and 28 mpg hwy.Again it's really all in how you drive those vehicles and how well you keep them up bec even a good full set of brakes on those vehicles can last 2-3 yrs or more if the driver uses them right.The key with that vehicle is managing the repairs yourself and using used good parts whenever brand new parts aren't 100% required.

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to you, your family/friends and to all. - helpful bob

Question 5
What could be the brake light problem on Chrysler 2001 Sebring Convertible?... Have a 01 chrysler sebring convertible.
brake lights won't come on.
its not the bulbs (they have been changed and are brand new)
Could it be a fuse problem?

Brake lights won't come on at all, however all other car lights functioning correctly.

Thanks
Thank you 67bronco. I do not know what that is or where it is located. It is something easy to fix myself or do I need to take it into a shop?

Answers
1) You could have a bad brake light switch. Its located on the brake pedal arm under the dash it can be hard to replace depending on the car I would take it to the shop it could also be an electrical problem and those are hard to diagnose sometimes. Good Luck - 67Bronco

2) It's either the fuse or the brake light sending switch. Sometimes the sending switch will get dirty and not allow it to work. First check the fuse though. - Frankie

3) It is most likely a fuse or the brake light switch. If you follow your brake pedal arm up under the dash you will find the brake pedal switch. The fuse you want to check is #5, a 10amp red fuse, in the fusebox inside the car. You can probably fix this yourself. Good luck. - C-Tech
