#2352 of 2361 whining Grand Caravan by ongomo Jul 08, 2009 (12:17 pm)
My 2007 3.3 ltr Grand Caravan with 42,000KM, has developed a whine that is not really loud but gets louder when hot & is quite noticeable when you turn on the A/C. The pitch of the whine changes as you rev up the engine. If on a steep hill (down) & put it in low gear to ease down slowly you can hear it quite loud. When I first complained, Dealer replaced the Alternator & idle saying the bearings were not good. Next they changed the A/C pump when I pointed out that it got louder when that clicked on and off. No change after either "fix". They say it really isn't that loud and is a normal thing. They contacted Chrysler and were unable to find any help there - it really isn't a problem (unless you are the one driving it!)... Today they took it in and to make me happy they took the trans. pan off, checked the oil & all components & found it was all good. No problems. No fix. Noise still there. Suggestions?

#2353 of 2361 P0442 & P0455 EVAP Ctrl System Leak by jtap0916 Jul 08, 2009 (10:51 pm)
My 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan just failed smog due to the EVAP leaks. Can you tell us what needs to replace? Is it a vacuum hose or is it a major fix.   Thanks for your time. Replies to this message: ford (Sep 10, 2009 9:50 pm)

Replying to: scarter711 (Sep 02, 2009 9:55 am) check your console on the roof. You have an on and off switch that is for turning the controls off to the sliding door as a child proof. I have myself turned this off and forgot I did so. When I took it in to get it checked out the service guy told me to chec k this switch. Hope this helps.
#2356 of 2361 P1494 code by ironcity1 Sep 02, 2009 (1:00 pm)
Have the above code on my 2001 Dodge Grande Caravan. Looking it up it says: leak detection pump switch or mechanical fault. What is this? Where is this pump located? Thanks for any help!

Replying to: jtap0916 (Jul 08, 2009 10:51 pm) I have a 2002 Dodge Caravan which had a code 455 and 442. The following is a description of this van. The problem was caused by a 12 inch hose located under the van on the drivers side close to and in front of the liquid/vapor separator canisters. The 5/8 inch ID hose was connected between the front (engine side) of the LDP vent valve and the leak detection pump. Oil from the engine had leaked onto the end of hose connected to the pump. The plastic clamp was broken and the hose had swollen until it was very loose. Replacing the hose and clamps fixed the problem. The LDP vent valve is connected to the largest liquid/vapor canister by a 2 inch long hose. You may need to buy the hose from the Chrysler since it is a shaped hose. Any broken or missing clamps should be replaced with the band type sold by auto parts stores. Any other hose which is split should be replaced. I found one small L shaped hose with different IDs on each end connected to the small liquid/vapor canister which had a small split which I replaced with a hose I got from Chrysler for $5.
#2358 of 2361 2000 Plymouth GV Help! by cheekyviking Nov 09, 2009 (12:13 pm)
It is raining in my car! I cleaned out the drainage tubes which were totally plugged and thought that would solve the problem. (I live in Portland where it rains constantly). The passenger side drain tube is cracked at the bottom but before I replace that I'd be thrilled to hear some advice. I finally had a dry 3 days and the car seemed fine, so I ran a hose on the windshield, the passenger door, basically all over the front end of the car. Nothing. As soon as it started to rain again, there's now a slow stream of water coming out from underneath the glove box. It smells like water, has no color. It did disappear when I ran the heat (which I haven't done in months), but then slowly trickled again. This can't be normal?! I really want to sell my car but want to identify and fix the problem so I don't pass it off to a buyer (but obviously don't want to break my bank in doing so). Please help!!!
#2359 of 2361 1990 Grand Voyager, temp power loss by skykingdumb1 Nov 10, 2009 (12:20 pm)
I recently fixed up this van for my handicapped friend. (Auto,since only 1 leg.) While driving the other day, it suddenly lost power to the accelerator. Still running though, for about a mile, and then suddenly had accelerator again. Your help to correct this is appreciated. Need to keep my friend in wheels.

Replying to: ongomo (Jul 08, 2009 12:17 pm) Had the same problem took forever to find where the whinning was coming from. Look under the middle of the car while running and listen for a whine while someone else eccelrates it. There is a plastic 3 ball looking thing that has a vacumm in it that helps with pressure. Mine was shrunken from heat and therefore leaked its called a Vac Harness and it was 8.00 from the dealer. part # was 4431325 hope this helps good luck.
