2,7 Engine by bernsax
I always hear the bad things about the 2.7 and the sludge problem. (After I bought one). Even read stories about those who changed the oil with synthetic every 3,000 miles and they still had a ruined engine anywhere from 50,000 to 65,000 miles. Does anyone know of a 2.7 engine that lasted...

Current automatic trannys illegally "freewheel" by George Orwell
State laws, for good reason prohibit coasting down hills. It used to be common for car and truck drivers to push in the clutch pedal or shift into neutral and freewheel down hills to save on gas. Brakes overheated, lost all their stopping power and many serious crashes resulted. So, what do we...

2003 Caravan power steering noise by Dll
Kind of a whining/groaning sound at all RPM's. Seemed no brainer to me that it was the pump, so I replaced that. However, to my surprise, it had zero effect on the problem. I've read some TSB's about the lines causing similar problems, and that extending the return line effects "shudder" at...

starter or something else? by John Keith
About 4 times over the last couple of weeks I have tried to start my 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager and there is no response, no or little noise from anything. After turning the key 3 or 4 more times I will start to get some response and eventually enough to start the engine. I can then shut the...

"Change power steering fluid? We've never done that." by Percival P. Cassidy[_2_]
Looking at the recommended maintenance schedule for our '02 300M, I noticed that it was recommended to change the power steering fluid at 48K miles (now past on our vehicle). The service adviser at our 5-Star dealership looked it up and said, "You're right: it is recommended, but I don't think...

Set timing on an Intrepid by Spiral_72
First, I've searched this and come up with nothing. Kinda leads me to believe the timing is computer controlled. The Haynes manual is useless too. 95 Intrepid 3.3L (not flex fuel), 215k miles, well maintained and in good condition. How can I adjust the timing on this car?

Ever seen this? by Robert Reynolds
First, let me preface this by saying that this is not at all typical. I've just been having a lot of hassles with cars lately. I've had 15 Chrysler minivans over the past dozen years, and most of them have been delightful to own and maintain. We have a 1999 Voyager with the 2.4L engine that...
