#31 of 40 2005 Sebring with 2.4 Engine by bena8837 Sep 06, 2009 (10:11 am)
My daughter has a 05 Chrysler Sebring with about 110K miles. The timing belt broke while driving down the highway, so it died. Took to mechanic and he said it was the timing belt that had broken. Had it replaced about 2 month ago. Now it has started with a humming noise at about 2500 Rpm. What is the best way to isolate the problem. As anyone familiar with the 2.4 knows, you can't even see the drive belt on the engine. Any help will be greatly appreciated.   Thanks, OMB Replies to this message: jpf (Sep 10, 2009 3:18 pm)

Replying to: bena8837 (Sep 06, 2009 10:11 am) I have a 2006 Dodge Caravan with the same engine. Timing belt replacement is recommended at 90k in the owner's manual. It is a good idea to change the water pump and maybe even the belt pre-tensioner when the timing belt is changed. See if you can get a good mechanic to ride with you; he may be able to isolate what the problem is after hearing it. Good luck.

#35 of 40 99 Sebring JXI stalling by sebring099 Sep 24, 2009 (6:22 pm)
My 99 Sebring has started doing weird things while going down the road. My check engine light and security light are the only 2 lights that come on and then the speedometer and rpm gauges dip. It lasts for just a second and the car picks back up and does fine. Sometimes it goes for days before it does it again and then sometimes 3 or 4 times a day. It runs rough for a few minutes after it happens and then runs fine. Sometimes when i stop after a short time it just dies,but starts right back up. If anyone knows anything i would love to hear from you......

Engine temp gauge gets hot then normal then hot then normal Steam comes from under the hood sometimes - A/C compressor, evap., radiator have been replaced. Was working fine until I had the oil changed, then again started with the hot than normal. I do not want to get stuck in rush hour traffic Replies to this message: malopr (Oct 08, 2009 5:47 am)

Replying to: thecardoc (Sep 05, 2009 7:18 pm) Could you tell me how you knew that you needed a water pump? Was your car running hot? Replies to this message: thecardoc (Oct 14, 2009 3:30 pm)
