DJ_AX Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Hi... hello... yo... I bought a nice 2010 Dodge Journey STX w/ 51,000 miles today. Happy to find an active dedicated forum for it. Everything seems to be in working order on the vehicle... but you know... when you buy a used vehicle there will be surprises. I like to do all my own vehicle repairs so I'll probably be asking a few questions in the future. thanks.. cheers.... peace ~ Vincent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhh3 Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Your front door glass looks to be tinted, but it could be the angle of your photo. I am thinking of doing mine. Looks good. It's funny; each color makes the DJ look like an entirely different vehicle. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_AX Posted December 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 That's a little bit of "PhotoShop" window tinting there... Plan on doing it IRL soon. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched your pic, and, although front can't be seen 100%, I think your car is model 2009. It's easy to know, just check your VIN, which must be interpreted like this (sorry, I can´t draw a table inside a post): Position Interpretation Codes = Description 1 Country of Origin 3 = Manufactured By Chrysler De Mexico Inc. 2 Assembler D = Dodge 3 Vehicle Type 4 = Multipurpose Passenger Vehicle Less Side Curtain Air Bags 8 = Multipurpose Passenger Vehicle With Side Curtain Air Bags 4 GVWR & Pass. Safety G = 5001-6000# (2268 - 2721 KG) GVWR & Hyd. Brakes H = 6001-7000# (2722 - 3175 KG) GVWR & Hyd. Brakes 5 Vehicle Line H = (LHD)(AWD) (E-49) G = (LHD)(FWD) (D-49) 5 = (RHD)(FWD) (B-49) 6 Series 6 = R/T 4 = SE 5 = SXT 7 Body Style 7 = JC Family (Body Style 49) 8 Engine Y = 2.0L 4 CYL Diesel (ECE) B = 2.4L 4 CYL Gasoline Non Turbo (ED3) V = 3.5L 6 CYL Gasoline Non Turbo (EGF) D = 2.7L 6 CYL Gasoline Non Turbo (EER) 9 Check Digit 0 = Check Digit 10 Model Year 9 = 2009 Model Year 11 Assembly Plant T = Toluca Assembly 12 thru 17 Vehicle Build Sequence Model Year Assembly Sequence If you want to do repairs for your own, you'll need spare parts, and it's important to know the exact model when you order them.
