#147 of 210 Re: Transmission issues [sixfive215] by kimchi Feb 14, 2006 (11:43 am)
Replying to: sixfive215 (Sep 14, 2005 10:36 am) I also had problems with my transmission. at that time, my 2000 300M had 100,724miles and when i took it to dealership, they said i have to replace with new transmission which will cost $3000.00 however, I couldnt get it done because it was just too expensive. so i was driving 3000rpm at 65mph where it should be 2100rpm at 65mph. fortunatly after driving 3000miles more, it fixed itself and now i'm running at normal rpm. ^^ Replies to this message: tayl0rd (Feb 14, 2006 12:35 pm) kimchi (Feb 17, 2006 12:05 am) kimchi (Jul 04, 2006 5:45 pm)

You know how they say when people are deathly sick, they will make a miraculous recover that seems to be their peak of health right before they croak... You might want to invest in a good set of walking shoes. It's only a matter of time now. Replies to this message: kimchi (Feb 17, 2006 12:05 am) kimchi (Jul 04, 2006 5:45 pm)

Replying to: tayl0rd (Feb 14, 2006 12:35 pm) true i agree....acutally i went to bodyshop i know and let them took everything out to see what was wrong but they said everything is ok except this one thing. i hear water? oil splashing around transmission when i drive from 0 to 10mph...does anyone know what is wrong? chrysler mechanics dont even wanna find out what is wrong with it becuz computer says it is 'Good' ...   anywayz so far it is doing ok. right now i have about 107000miles on it. and i still smoke other japanese ride with my 300M ^^ so If this car breaks down because of transmission, i'm just going to buy other new car.
#150 of 210 Chrysler 300M Special body kit by locomex23 Feb 17, 2006 (12:46 pm)
Hello, I am new to the forum and I hope that my question has not been asked bofore, but what body parts do I have to change to make my Regular 300M look like a 300M special?? Replies to this message: tayl0rd (Feb 21, 2006 5:27 am)

Replying to: locomex23 (Feb 17, 2006 12:46 pm) The front and rear fascia, the headlights, the mirrors, the wheels, the side skirts and molding, the badges, the brake system, the sway bars, and the springs. On the interior, you'd have to change the guages, the seats, the door sills, and the wood trim. And depending on which model year 300M you have and its options, you'd have to change the radio, add the CD changer, and convert from OTIS to EVIC w/ TPMS. If you really want to go whole-hog, you'd have to change your transaxle gearing and ECM programming to raise the rev limit, remove the speed limiter, and change the timing to require premium fuel( ).   Oh yeah, you'll have to add some sound deadening material. The Special supposedly has more than the regular Ms, but I can't say if there is a difference or not. The last regular M I was in was a '99 and it's definitely quieter than that one, but they added sound deadening material and changed the door seals in the later models so I'm sure they're quieter than the '99 as well.
#152 of 210 Has Anyone Installed UConnect.. by tayl0rd Feb 21, 2006 (5:29 am)
in their 300M? If so, does it work through the stereo speakers or do you have to use that dorky speaker that comes with it?
#153 of 210 300M sideview mirrors by campba2 Feb 23, 2006 (8:52 am)
I have a 2003 300M, and I would like to install the 300M Special sideview mirrors that have the integrated side turn signal. I have been to my not so helpful local Chrysler dealer and they told me that the new mirrors are $400ea; and if different wiring harnesses are needed, the wiring will be an additional $900ea. Needless to say I almost fell over at the possibility of $1300 for each mirror, and this excludes labor. My question is, since both vehicles are basically identical does anyone know if the wiring in place on both vehicles for the mirrors is a standard harness and will accomodate both mirror types so that all I need to purchase are the mirrors? My hope is that the mirror wiring in place is common to both vehicles just different pin sockets are used depending on the mirror type. Apparently my Chrysler dealer isn't able to make this determination until they pull the door panel. Your comments are appreciated, thank you.

Replying to: campba2 (Feb 23, 2006 8:52 am) It's a safe bet that the harnesses are the same. And if they aren't, you can return the mirrors.

Does anyone has a remote starter installed in their 300M? What is a good brand to have?
