  1. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) If the vehicle is equipped with ESP, once the battery is reconnected, the SteeringAngle Sensor (SAS) needs to be calibrated. The SAS requires calibration anytime the battery or an ABS (ESP) component has been disconnected for any length of time. To calibrate, perform the following: 1) Start the engine. 2) Center the steering wheel. 3) Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left until the internal stop in the steering gear is met, then turn the wheel all the way to the right until the opposite internal stop in the steering gear is met. 4) Center the steering wheel. 5) Stop the engine.Google "dodge charger ESP/BAS Light" A bunch of stuff out there -- apparently this is a know issue... with possible causes too numerous to mention.
  2. Should come straight out the bottom with the k member
  3. Check out rock auto , a throttle body there is $165 or so depending which one you pick . They are very easy to replace.
  4. That’s a lot for a throttle body , sound like it junk yard shopping time
  5. Transmission kicks when almost stops , mine has done this since I bought it , worse when I first start out most other time it’s okay . As as for the rest it sounds like the car is going in to limp home mode . As for brakes get get away from factory parts and get good after market rotors and pads. I am done for new pads on the front of mine so I got about 30,000 miles off the front brakes .
  6. Just a little noise mainly over rocky roads . A soft thump and also if I back up over a uneven spot . I also get a bit of noise while going slow over rough roads but I traced it down to brake pads rattling becuse if I put slight pressure on the brakes it stops.
  7. I have a question about the bushing on the front control arm . I am talking about the one at the rear of the control arm where it mounts to to the kmember. What at is the normal amount of play that is allowed with this bushing . Mine moves up and quite a bit . Not enough to hit metal but with a pry bar I can move it up and down a bit
  8. wow $130 for a oil change !!!! cost me $23 to change it myself . synthetic blend . 160,000 miles and no ticks and no oil usage between changes . 4500 mile intervals
  9. thought those 2.4 world engines where pretty bullet proof. guess h must of neglected it or did not change oil or check the level .

  11. heater core blocked . check the thermostats , there are two i think one controls the heater core flow my 2009 makes it nice and toasty warm even on the coldest days.
  12. mine comes on at 6k every time . that's when i change it
  13. don't go by the max pressure on the tire used the tire pressure that's listed on the sill plate
  14. do you have the proper 50/50 mix and not just water.. i would suspect a blocked radiator
  15. are you sure the dimmer switch for the dash is not in the off position. there is one position on the light switch stalk that will prevent the inside lights from coming on with the door open
  16. codes , plugs , coil packs , boots ..
  17. question , are you letting the idle speed settle down after starting it cold .
  18. detonation under load . you would hear just reving a unloaded engine. any codes left side cv joint
  19. My 2009 makes noise over certain rough roads too. I noticed if I alley the brake slightly the noise goes away..
  20. could be a bad alternator ,form stock . would not the first time.
  21. do you photos of the inside . if the interior was done by katzkin you should find some small tags .. the specialize in doing work for new car dealers ...
  22. Could be aftermarket , one company specializing in leather seats does such a good job it looks factory . https://katzkin.com
