#51 of 59 Re: 2006 Charger R/T (Daytona: 5.7L, 350 HP V-8) [rainysunshine] by discgolfer99 Nov 14, 2008 (3:57 pm)
Replying to: rainysunshine (Oct 30, 2008 9:49 am) That is good news, rainysunshine...   There has not been another car to come out since April 05' that I would consider buying over my Charger. Best looking sedan on the market, hands down !!   By the way, check out these pics of the Navigation system I installed into my dash. It is a Garmin Nuvi 660, and fit in quite nicely...   http://www.carspace.com/discgolfer99

I understand i need to replace the spark plugs, but is there anything that i should be concern about before doing this? is there a recommended brand/make of spark plugs? is there anything else i should know before starting this task? Replies to this message: autotech20 (May 19, 2009 7:25 am)

I have an 06 Charger and I've had different people say the Charger can't handle the 22s. I have had 22s on it for two years. I did take them off for a very long road trip in snow. The economy will predict when I can get some new tires. Of course there is a different feel but it seems to me its easier for the mechanic to to say "oh its the big tires" than to find out whats really wrong. I too have experienced the car stalling, it did start up right away though. The only other probelm is its a summer car. When the temp drops below 32 it won't go in reverse until the engine warms up. I got screwed on this deal because the gear shift had broken before when it was jerked and then glued. I had to replace the whole thing. But it is funny when people think I'm a state trooper while on the highway or they are waving at me. I love driving it.

Replying to: lifeisgood2 (Jan 21, 2009 6:14 pm) The spark plugs that came factory on this car should have never been installed in this engine. The factory plugs are copper tip rather than iridium or platinum tip that is normally used in high voltage ignition systems. I would suggest using the double platinum (champion #7570), as to replacing the plug wires and coil boots, you might get by without having to do so. I would at least use dielectric grease on the plug ends of the boots and wires. This upgrade should get more mileage before your next tune-up also.
