Replying to: farout (Mar 03, 2009 11:06 am) Thank you for the welcome I'll have to post in the tranny forum. Thank you for letting me know about the TC issue - I appreciate it.   I test drove it last night and really liked it. We're going back on Friday to see if we can keep it for the weekend. I'm also going to have the dealer get me a carfax and see about the TC issue (if it's been replaced, or if it was in the problem date duration).   I will definitely check into the Max Care service contract - thank you for telling me. I do like the dual exhaust, but I may have to replace the stock mufflers with either Magnaflow or Borla - I think the 4L needs to breathe a bit better, plus the sound doesn't hurt. The engine is pretty powerful - much better than I anticipated in a 4300lb car (well, crossover or suv).   I guess I won't be changing the plugs then!!! Thanks again for the help. I'll post (next time) in the tranny forum. Have a good day

I just purchased a 1 car owner 04 pacifica AWD with the third row with all the bells to replace a total nissan van. I love the car but the gas mileage is killing me. Iam only getting 15-16 MPG. What can I do cause i travel 50 miles one way to work. I might have to get another car to drive to work Replies to this message: jtg61 (Jun 22, 2009 5:10 am) farout (Jun 22, 2009 10:00 am)

Replying to: coxfam1 (Jun 20, 2009 11:11 pm) I have an '08 FWD Pacifica and I regularly get 25-26 mpg on the mileage computer readout. Why would the 4.0L get better gas mileage than the 3.5L? The only thing I can think of is the 6-speed transmission. I don't think you can squeeze better mileage than you're getting out of the 4-speed. Replies to this message: farout (Jun 22, 2009 10:00 am)

Replying to: jtg61 (Jun 22, 2009 5:10 am) We have a 2007 PAC Touring AWD and we have gotten as high as 27. The final drive of the 6th speed in lock up makes all the difference. The extra hp in the 4. L engine gives the extra hp needed to blend in better that the 4 speed 3.5 L. The pick-up is far better than most V-8 engines. The 4,L is the 3.5 engine that has been updated. This engine is far better than the 4,7 in the Dakota trusk. So what you are experiencing is as it should be.   This is the most comfortable vehicle we have ever driven. The PAC is Chryslers best kept secrect.   farout
