#230 of 489 Engine Problems by puppydogs03

Nov 12, 2005 (12:15 am)

2000 Dodge Stratus SE 2.0L V-6 91,000. has now started to act up. While going any distance or speed the engine will cut out but not shut off. This will go on for quit some time. However now instead of staying started will cut out and die. I can re start the car and continue on my way. This has become more frequent. My car starts back up every time. Have been told this is the fuel pump after having car diagnosed. I Have also had many comments that this may be a computer problem, but no check engine light comes on or may be my fuel filter. Any ideas?

Sounds like the computer to me, I had a similar problem with my 1994 Spirit.

#232 of 489 Rough idle 2004 Stratus by ralph13

Nov 14, 2005 (4:11 pm)

I have a 2004 Dodge Stratus V6 2.7 Litre. Bought it with 18,000 miles on it. Now at 32,000 miles, when coming to a complete stop the engine runs smooth for about 20 seconds then it starts to idle rough. It doesn't happen when the engine is cold, but only after it is warmed up. Is this common? Any advise would be much appreicated.
Thank You,

#239 of 489 04 Stratus ES Oil Light While Idleing by rytylemieux

Dec 03, 2005 (9:48 am)

I have a 2004 Dodge Stratus ES with a 2.7 liter 4 cylinder engine. and when i stop at a red light or the car is running but in park the oil light comes on. I have never owned a car that does this. I purchased it as a program car. it had 36000 miles on it and now has about 37500, as you can see ive had it for about 3 weeks. anyway i am concered at the lack of difinitive knowledge of the dealership in town they want me to bring it in and have them suck 60 bucks out of me to tell me to change the oil. It was changed just before i purchased it. does anywone have any insight on this issue?
