Replying to: samehyassin (May 05, 2008 4:05 am) Might I suggest to take it to a dealer and have then check it out. In the long and short of it will save you time and money. Have you checked to see if there are any codes showing? That would say a lot if it is. farout

Replying to: farout (May 05, 2008 10:21 am) Thanks for your advise. I got your advise. I towed the car to a mecahnic. Probably today he will tell me what is wrong with the car. I will let you know as soon as I get a response. After changing the EGR vacum, the light "check engin" became off. Also, I showed me no error codes in two different places "autozone and a mechanic". Again, Thanks very much for your support. Sameh |

Replying to: farout (May 05, 2008 10:21 am) The problem might be sorted out now. I was the speed sendor. This senor was faulty and confilict with cam and crank sensors. that is why it was not starting. the error code did not show up till the car became cold. the code is p0320. I wish this would be a good for anybody have the same problem. Thanks for your supprot. Sameh |

Hey there! I've got an adorable 99 and he ran perfectly teriffic, that is until some punks stole him from out of my driveway and took him for a little stroll.  They obviously ran over something really huge, the donut was on the front of the driver's side (they left my rim, wheel, hubcap, jack, and lug wrench by the side of the road somewhere, so considerate, right?) and the back wheel had a bubble on it like it got knicked a little. The front wheel was also sticking out at an outrageous angle and when you drove straight, the steering wheel was up and down instead of straight across. Now I was told that the control arm was bent, since everything else looked okay. I replaced the arm and ball joing and got him some new tires and since the new arm went on (which I had one heck of a time with two of the bolts! Torching had to be brought in to it) his wheel leans out a lot less. BUT IT STILL LEANS OUT!!! I don't know what else it could be, it leans towards the bottom and that causes the steering wheel to stick when you turn too hard to the right and makes a grinding sound. Does anyone know what can be wrong with it? I want my poor Pinky to be back to 100%! He's been through a lot and he's quite sad

Hey guys (and gals). I have a 2003 Dodge Neon (Automatic) SXT. Worked GREAT until about 55K miles. Then crap started falling apart. Fast forward 4K miles. At 59K my engine light went on. I went in, and they told me I needed transmission work. Still covered under Powertrain, so that was cool. After having it for a few hours, they told me that the engine air cleaner was hosed. It was cracked and couldn't even be tightened down. Fine, replace it. New air cleaner, transmission seals fixed. I've had my car back for a week now. It feels like it's shifting harder, and not at points that it used to. I'm having a _really_ hard time finding info on when my (automatic trans) car should be shifting. It doesn't seem to be shifting based on RPM. Shifts into 2nd at about 12 mph, shifts into 3rd about 35, shifts into 4th about 42. Can that be right? It feels _awfully_ strange. Even weirder on the highway. Shifts into 3rd about 40 mph and 4th about 43 mph. Huh? Also, between 60-70 mph, I feel little jumps/kicks. Kinda feels like when there's a moderate wind that moves your car a bit. Just feels.... not right. My fuel economy has even gone done. Before engine light came on, and with my busted air cleaner, I was getting about 250-260 miles a tank. Now I'm getting about 230-240. Any ideas? Sorry this was kinda long. I'm not a car guy (yet), so I did my best to explain the situation. If anybody can help, or needs more information, that'd be fantastic!  Oh yeah, a friend pointed me at Chilton manuals, but there's so many. I'm a little lost. Dave |
