Transmission Leak O-ring by batista

xtec-Have you had the transmission leak?
Mine started last week after I noticed a small puddle at work. Its a minor fix and took 30 mins at the dealership.
After the fix I still had a few drops this morning.
I guess the tech didn't clean the transmission pan.

Thats where mine idles at,750.I don't know how long you waited since your last oil change,but it shows me that your engine is breaking in,and has less resistance which is good.Synthetic is suppose to have better lubrication then standard oil.I use regular oil from the dealer,but I have it changed every 3 months,and it has about 500 to 700 miles on the change.Wow you got your system fast.$95 is not bad deal.Let me know how you like it,Good luck again.

Mopar dual exhaust has been installed and sounds good.
No exhaust sound when your foot is off the gas pedal which I like.
Haven't taken it past 2500rpms and while stopping can smell the stainless steel heating/burning.
Later tonight will see how it sounds at higher rpms. Traffic is kind of heavy right now.
 
Charger only has 4500 miles and the idle is back down in the 600rpms.

No problem. Once in a while check the ground of your driveway.
 
Thanks for your help with the exhaust questions.
I change my engine oil twice a year with synthetic because 4 times a year with dino oil is too often with only 7000 miles of driving per year.

I'm glad you finally have your duals.It will get a little louder when you get more miles and break it in.But like I said before once your in 5th cruising there is no noise.I have only a couple hundred more miles on my Charger then you.I don't know why your idle did that,but mine is on 750.I hope your happy with it,and enjoy your ride.I'm happy to help out all I can with any questions you may have.

batista-
  How do you like your Exhaust so far?I hope it what you hoped it would be.I have to correct myself on my RPMs.Mine is close to yours.Its in between the 500 line and 750.So its around I would guess about 600 to 700RPMs.I looked on the label under the hood,But it didn't show specs for RPM.
I'm sure yours is correct.

Its louder up to 4000 rpms and then it sounds the same as stock. I noticed some buzzing from the inside around the dash when I have it around 3000rpms.
The look is much better than the sound especially since all chargers have the cutout on the left side and looks kind of stupid to have nothing there.
Thanks for asking.

Personally, I drive a black Dodge Charger SE and am absolutely obsessed with all things Dodge Charger related.
 
For those drive who dodges and love NASCAR check this out:
 
Ryan Newman, driver of the No.12 Alltel Dodge has his own podcast on alltel.com. On it, Newman talks about the handling of his NASCAR car of tomorrow, the Dodge Avenger and the current car, the Dodge Charger.
 
It's really cool to hear from someone who drives nearly 200 mph in a completely revved up version of my car! If you’re interested tune into the weekly alltel racing podcast or watch a race there's only 17 left!

Warranty! by xtec

Chrysler just came out with a lifetime powertrain warranty for '07 and '08 on most models.This is for the first buyer only,and can't be transfered.This is a pretty good deal.I wish they had that when I bought my Charger.
