Replying to: blink3 (Jun 04, 2005 6:47 am) I can assure you its not like the old Dodges,lol.More mercedes than dodge. Police agenies are going to the Magnum and charger for use DC really put the Hemi thru the ringer to capture that market ..They really went to the wall with this engine it burns very clean ....... I asked myself all the same questions you have before I bought and have never looked back .. 3000 miles on my RT AWD and not a single issue .I do know people with about 50k on thier mags, and the same holds true.

Replying to: blink3 (Jun 04, 2005 2:51 pm) My brother who drive nothing but Audi's was in town this weekend and drove our Magnum RT AWD tonight to pick a few things up at the store. He returned and just was freaking what a great ride the car had not to mention tons of power.........Hes buying one also asap his Saab wagon just had the turbo go out the they are not happy.. Too put it lightly we are a bit spoiled we have had some awsome rides in the past but the magnum is a total surprise and a treat .. You cant go wrong..Just baby her and be light on the pedal till you have approx 2k on the car ..
#37 of 73 Problems starting by luckytiki Aug 27, 2006 (1:26 pm)
Hello I'm new here and unfortunately my first post is a mechanical problem...   I just bought a 2006 SXT 3.5L w/ 12K miles and a few times it's had problems starting. It acts like it's flooded or not getting gas and only starts after pumping the gas and than holding it down to clear it out several times; it idles rough for a few minutes and than is fine. It only does this when it sits for a couple hours or more, but not all the time. After about the third time the check engine light came on and has stayed on (it's only been a day or so since it came on with minimal driving).   It just came off the lot and is still under warranty, so I will be taking it in first thing when they open, but I'm interested if anyone has experienced this and knows what's going on. Thanks, -Russ Replies to this message: george5 (Jan 01, 2007 11:03 pm)
#38 of 73 Recall Notice: 3.5L Engine by gboomer Sep 28, 2006 (11:51 am)
Just got recall notice #F35 in the mail. "The engine in your vehicle may have been assembled with sand-like debris on the number two connecting rod bearing journal of the crankshaft. This can cause excessive rod bearing wear and result in engine failure." Says they will inspect the engine and if necessary replace the engine.   Anyone else see this notice or experience this problem?

Replying to: gboomer (Sep 28, 2006 11:51 am) Nothing yet !!!!   What year is your car ? Is it a later model. I have a 2005, but purchased in Nov. 2004. Replies to this message: gboomer (Sep 29, 2006 12:07 pm) gboomer (Oct 06, 2006 8:43 am)

Replying to: scarab22 (Sep 29, 2006 5:40 am) 2006 SXT, purchased in May 2006. In talking to the dealer, this recall affects vehicles manufactured during certain dates. I'm taking it in to the dealer on Monday. Replies to this message: gboomer (Oct 06, 2006 8:43 am)

Replying to: gboomer (Sep 29, 2006 12:07 pm) Just a quick update regarding the recall notice on 3.5L engine. This notice only affected 4 cars in the Maryland region where I bought my car, 2 of these were in the Pacifica. The dealer found no sand in the crank shaft bearing and I now have my car back. Luckily, I haven't had any other major issues with the car (knock on wood). I've had it since May '06 and now have 8,500 miles on it. Good luck to the rest of you Magnum owners out there.
