So yesterday at about 8pm I was in my 2011 200 and got on to a long open street were I usually do my floor its. So I come to stop and get ready to punch it and I get all the way to the top of 2nd gear and it shifts into neutral then limps into 3rd gear so I get it towed to the dealership and...

So I figured out my course of action with my trans I'm going to do three just drain and fills with valvoline max life atf full synthetic and once I'm done doing that I will then do three more with but instead will be using amsoil atf. My intention is to try and get as much of the old fluid out...

As I had expected I need at least 2 motor mounts and will probably do all of them including the trans mount is there a good type of motor mount that anyone can recommend

So heeding the advice of my mechanic I went to the most reputable trans shop in town to have it fully checked and see if fluid and filter change would be good. So first things first he pops the hood checks the fluid and says not bad kinda old but good plugs in the computer and zero codes...

Okay forgive my paranoia I have owned Chrysler my whole life and it wasn't the 3 speed torque flight so I always question the trans and I was wondering what is the lifespan of these units be it the 3 speed 4 or the stick shift. I personally own the 97 with the 4 speed and have 119k on the...

So about 3 days ago I changed my oil to m1 5w30 high milage full synthetic I had a bitch of a time because whoever did it before me tightened the filter on there like it was a lugnut. Besides that I was wondering what is a safe oci on these motors with that oil and also wondering how do ppl like...

So today when I put the car in reverse it feels like it had more vibration than normal and that got me thinking what is the likelyhood that I need motor mounts and trans mounts? It was not horrible just seemed a little more than normal
