#35 of 1696 No oil leaks here... by rcarboni May 15, 2000 (2:12 am)
fredly, You didn't mention what engine was in the Durango you looked at, but I have the 5.9 and replaced my valve covers with Mopar performance aluminum covers. When I did, I noticed that the stock gaskets are very good quality with reinforced rubber, and are not prone to leaking. Sounds like it might be a quality control lapse and someone forgot to torque them down properly. others, For info on A/C, sunroofs, etc., you might want to try the Durango Owners Forum. There is a good FAQ page on all things Durango, and lots of owners to query: http://www.durangoclub.com/ceilidh/ceilidh.html
#36 of 1696 Engine break-in by jbecker5 May 15, 2000 (3:11 am)
I just bought a Durango (5.9L, 3.92) and was surprised to see that the recommended engine break-in period was only 300 miles. If I recall from a new vehicle purchase about 10 years ago, this number was more like 1500. With the Durango, I plan to tow a 3500lb. boat in mountainous areas, and wonder what others know about breaking in the new engine. Any suggestions?
#37 of 1696 Bugs by ro5 May 15, 2000 (1:07 pm)
i'm going on a vacation in my new D and was wondering: other than a bug screen, what else if anything, can i do to protect the paint from bugs ???? thanks.
#38 of 1696 BUGS-- by jimmyjam May 16, 2000 (6:03 pm)
With the quick turning response of the D,you should be able to "DODGE" most of them!!!                        jimmyjam

ro5 (#39): One thing that helps significantly is putting a good coat of wax on the vehicle before going on the trip. That way, any bug "stuff" that gets on the car, really only gets on the wax. It is also much easier to remove!
#40 of 1696 Rebate doesnt apply? by donm4 May 16, 2000 (10:58 pm)
I'm currently negotiating a lease and my salesman says the 1000$ rebate doesnt apply with the special chrysler lease plan he's using(the best lease plan available)  Has anyone heard of this? Does he benefit?  Thanks
#41 of 1696 Rebate by q8740 May 17, 2000 (2:53 am)
I would call dodge, there web site says $1000.00 on all durangos and $500 dollars on lease's w a 5.9 motor. I did call a local dodge dealer and the fleet mgr did not want to tell me that there is a rebate. I was inquiring on a R/T and he said there is no rebate on that vehicle fore sure..... WRONG ......another scam
#42 of 1696 Anything on the 2001 Durango? by humpy May 17, 2000 (2:17 pm)
Does anyone have any information on what is new for the 2001 Durango and when will it be available? I want to buy a new D but was curious about the new models.
#43 of 1696 by dwh6 May 17, 2000 (4:36 pm)
I haven't heard much, but I did hear that the model will be "refreshed" and that it will have some additional features, such as heated seats, that were not previously offered.
#44 of 1696 full time transfer case by emale May 22, 2000 (6:44 am)
i'm helping a friend with a possible durango purchase and need some advice. i know that the 4.7l engine and new 4 speed tranny can be had with a full-time transfer case, which i believe is basically the same as the one in the jeep grand cherokee. however, there seems to be quite a few driveline problems with those similarly equipped jeeps. has anyone here had a problem with their 4.7l powertrain including the full-time transer case? thanks.
