#3360 of 3410 Painting TPO Fascia & Bumpers by bvreeland Mar 19, 2009 (8:55 am)
Hi everyone - new to this site. I have a 2002 Dodge Intrepid. The fascia and rear bumper needs repainting. I've done this the past two years using Dodge factory basecoat and clearcoat - results have not been good. Can anyone suggest the proper method for painting these TPO surfaces, i.e. surface preparation, adhesion promoters, primer, applying basecoat and clear coat? Thanks!   Bill Vreeland Powell, Ohio Replies to this message: blazer6973547 (Sep 11, 2009 2:16 am)

#3362 of 3410 2001 DODGE INTREPID DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE by gover Mar 23, 2009 (6:50 pm)
I have a 2001 dodge intrepid, the driver side interior door handle broke, the end plastic tips broke that connect to the metal rod that open the door from within. Can the door handle be replaced or is it a one piece unit with the door panel? If it can be replace how do you take the handle off?

Replying to: martmcc (Apr 27, 2009 7:22 am) Two things to check; It could be a bad tire or one that is either out of balance or has thrown a wheel weight. Secondly, check the inner tierods. They meet dead center of the firewall. Check to see if the bushing has worn on either or both of the ends. If worn badly you will be able to move it around on the mounting bolt. Usually when the inners go the outers need replacing too. Worn bushings will cause a wobble or vibration, especially when hitting a dip or bump in the road.
#3365 of 3410 Uh-oh...oil pressure light. by andre1969 Apr 27, 2009 (11:28 am)
I let a friend borrow my 2000 Intrepid 2.7 last week, and he said the oil pressure light started flickering. I didn't have time to mess with it, so I just parked it until I could get to it. Today, I drove it to work, to see how it did, and it seemed fine. But then I drove a bit around lunch time, and did start to notice a very slight, intermittent flickering. Could that just be the sending unit starting to go, or a sensor or something?   I checked the oil and it's full. Also, the car sounds fine. About 5 1/2 years ago, it pulled a stunt where the pressure light would come on at idle, once fully warmed up, such as sitting at a traffic light, but that was fixed with a TSB. That time, the sending unit was fine, but there was some issue with the wiring just getting too hot and making the light come on. This time around, the light seems to come on at random, and it's very faint, and easy to miss during the daytime. It was dark when my friend saw the light come on, so it was probably more noticeable.   So, any ideas? Sending unit, most likely? Replies to this message: blazer6973547 (Sep 11, 2009 1:47 am)

#3368 of 3410 Dodge Intrepid "vmode" by lisalo Jun 27, 2009 (7:22 am)
Can anyone tell me how I can determine if our 1996 Dodge Intrepid is "vmode" or not? It is a 3.5L 24 valve with an automatic transmission. We are looking at the gas mileage to see if it is "clunker" qualified and the vmode is 18 miles to the gallon - the other 3.5L model is 19 miles to the gallon - the difference between qualifying or not! Any help would be appreciated - we have all of the original owner's manuals but I can't find any indication. Thanks!

#3369 of 3410 Re: Dodge Intrepid "vmode" [lisalo] by andre1969 Jun 29, 2009 (8:53 am)
Replying to: lisalo (Jun 27, 2009 7:22 am) I looked up "VMODE" on the EPA website, and got this description...   "User-Selectable Continuously Variable Transmission"   I think that might be a fancy term for the AutoStick, which was an automatic that was designed to be shifted like a manual if you so chose. It still had safety features in it to keep you from shifting into the wrong gear at too high of a speed, but it was more flexible than the regular automatic.   I had always thought that all 3.5's used the autostick, but maybe not?
