Limited engine power on jumpstart
weasey31 replied to weasey31's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
I have to check. Good question. It's cold out and the battery is hidden in the fender so I'm not in any hurry to check it. I will check soon though and report back -
Weather temp: 30F The other morning tried to start the DJ. It wouldn't start, so I jumpstarted it like so many other times before . After it warmed up, I proceeded to drive down the road. The ESP idiot light was on and would not turn off. My throttle was limited to 2000 rpm. Nothing faster. I managed to drive it down to the dodge dealer going a max of 10 mph, thinking something was wrong with the engine. when I got there my wife is waiting for me I said hold on let me try to shut the car off and restart it again to see if it goes back to normal. So I did. After I restarted it I drove around the block to test the engine power and it was at full power. I think the electronic throttle-control was tripped or the computer put it in a limited engine power condition. has anybody experienced this? After what I thought is major money problem was no problem at all but something I'd never experienced before. The battery voltage must of been extremely low and caused the computer to control the engine in a restricted fashion.

Did you solve your heat mystery?
Mine doing the same thing. Looking into the pass blend door range of motion control

You get the heat restored?

It looks like my passenger blend flap door may be broken inside the distribution housing. I saw you had similar problem with cool air on pass side and you ruled out blend door actuator.

Like Dhh3, mount a 255/50r119. Will fit with no issues. See my gallery.

Had a coolant leaking on the ground after I went to start thr car after a gym workout. Smelled like hot butt hole. Dealer found 2 freeze plugs leaking in the rear. They had to pull the tranny, $
2500.00 total out of pocket. My service Warranty(ethos group) didn't cover it .
Anyhow, I still have the original 225 tires on. There all bald! I will be getting some 255s very soon.

Your exactly right!!!! I learned my lesson about warranties from this day forward.

Warranties are strategic pitches from the dealer to instill a confidence in the buyer through the persuasive mouth of their saleman rather than you reading the fine print on the contract yourself. If they can convince you, they know they got you after your signature has just been signed. They statigically rank it high like 99% to
work in your favor. What they don't say is that it's realistically more like 70%. There real "smooth" about it.
I learned my lesson.

Perhaps you missed the term 'aftermarket'. If you'd have had the Chrysler warranty there'd have been no discussion. Your dealer COULD have sold you the one from Chrysler.
That's a lesson I learned the hard way long ago

I have 2009 3.5L. Bought it one year ago. I noticed same thing on my oil dipstick on periodic checks. It eats some oil and I have no leaks either. I thought the same thing with the coolant. There is no change in the color of coolant at the overflow reservoir.
