#135 of 188 Clacking sound from engine, other concerns by nicolasavenger Sep 03, 2006 (6:50 pm)
Hi I own a 1996 Avenger ES 2.5L V6 with 275000 Kilometers on it (about 171000 Miles). Car has been great and I plan on keeping it for a while longer, but have a few questions that maybe someone can help me with. 1) The oil pressure gauge ALWAYS reads on the lowest mark...is the gauge dead or do I have no oil pressure? Also 2) Recently I have noticed a clacking/clicking sound coming from the engine in the first few minutes of use, then it goes away. What is this? Is it a problem? Finally 3) On a few different occasions after the battery has been disconnected for a period of time, (and then re-connected) my Avenger gives me many problems such as will not start, if it does start it stalls shortly thereafter or when put in gear, etc. I find if I nurse it into gear and take it for a spin for about 20 minutes, it cures itself? What can this be? If anyone has some suggestions, please let me know!   Thanks!

Replying to: hotscot311 (Jul 07, 2005 8:43 am) The engin swap is pretty easy to do, its just costly. All the mounts and everything will line up with no problems. When doing the swap you will need the motor, all wire harnises, ecu, tranny, and the drive shafts. Only reason why you will need the tranny and drive shafts is because its the same engin as what you have except everything is switched. instead of the tranny being on one side its on the opposite side.

Replying to: avenger1714 (Jun 01, 2002 6:11 am) Ive read through all the little discusion on this page about the avenger and I disagree with both guys. I think the avenger is a good car to own. Mycousin had hers for 5 years and didnt want to get rid of it but had no choice sense she needed a 4 door. She never had any mechanical problems with it and she had the automatic one. Now I have had Avenger for bout 6 months now and Im loving it. Only mechanical work Ive done to mine is what I wanted to do to it, nothing has broken. Yes I did do the timeing belt, but when ever I get a new car I do the timeing belt. My cousine had a 97 Avenger with 90k miles on it with no problems and I have a 96 Avenger manual with 136k miles on it. Now 2500 for the car I think is a little much, I would only pay 1800 to 2000 for the car.
