#1836 of 1877 Re: Disc upgrade [paget] by magnumbeliever Jul 12, 2008 (5:02 pm)
Replying to: paget (Jul 12, 2008 3:07 pm) Hey paget, it worked, thank you so much. With your instructions, it was very simple. I guess the dealers want you to come in to them so they can charge you "big" money. It only took about 5 minute for the upgrade to load once I changed out the disc. Once again, thank you very much

I know you asks this a long time ago but I just joined.

Just bought my my Magnum with 12 K miles on it. Absolutely stunning and fabulous car.   However, I hear a very slight and non-patterned irregular "tapping," or something like an exhaust hanger lightly wiggling against a hard surface coming from front end under hood.   Maybe a likage spring contracting / expanding when hot ?   Happens just after warm-up. Hear it when driving off from stop. Not really bad at all. I'm just a noise freak, I guess.   I thought the following culprits: heat riser (is there one on this car?) belt tensioner systems, valve train (please no).   However, just recently strted putting higher octane gas. Sound seems to be diminishing. Was wondering if deiseling was happening. I AM NOT A LEAD FOOT SO HAVE NOT AND DO NOT WISH TO HOT ROD IT TO EXPLORE FURTHER.   Any suggestions would be appreciated.   Reluctnt to take and leave with dealer. I want to investigate first and try to share what I might learn of this noise with them.   Thanks
#1840 of 1877 Pre-ignition? by jacklionel Jul 30, 2008 (7:18 am)
I believe that the Hemis have knock sensors, which, if operating correctly, would prevent knocking with any octane gasoline.   I do not know if the V-6s have this feature also.
#1841 of 1877 Emergency brake assistance by magnumbeliever Jul 31, 2008 (1:25 am)
Somewhere I read that a Dodge Magnum has power ABS with emergency brake assistance.   Has anyone heard of this and exactly what does this mean? Replies to this message: bbfd86 (Jul 31, 2008 4:36 am)

Replying to: magnumbeliever (Jul 31, 2008 1:25 am) From Wikipedia:   Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) is a safety system in vehicles designed to ensure maximum braking power is used in an Emergency stop situation. By interpreting the speed and pressure at which the brake pedal is pushed, the system detects if the driver is trying to execute an emergency stop, and if the brake pedal is not fully applied, the system overrides and fully applies the brakes until the Anti-lock braking system (ABS) takes over to stop the wheels locking up.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake_assist
#1843 of 1877 EBA, is that so? by jacklionel Jul 31, 2008 (6:23 am)
Wow! Pre-programmed panic stops!   LOOK OUT FROM BEHIND!   (Does it make you a little uncomfortable that the car is reading your mind?)
#1844 of 1877 by bbfd86 Jul 31, 2008 (9:08 am)
No! If you're making a panic stop you want all the help you can get.   Don't forget, the ABS electronics will prevent your panic stop from turning into a skid...
#1845 of 1877 2005 dodge magnum vibration noise by gregheiman Sep 03, 2008 (1:00 pm)
I have a 2005 Dodge Magnum with 68,000 miles. I am noticing a loud vibration noise starting at around 30 mph. Around 65-70 mph it continues as long as I am accelerating. Once I let off the gas the vibration noise silences. And returns as I accelerate. I just got new tires and they checked the front end and found no problems with alignment. Any suggestions.   Thanks Greg
