  1. I always check my oil level in the morning after the vehicle has sat overnight I think that is the most accurate reading once a week minimum For what its worth I use between 1 1/2-2qts per 5000 miles 10w30 synthetic and its consumption not leaking anywhere but I dont have any blue smoke on start up it seems to run fine My dealer told me that Chrysler says 1qt per 600 miles is acceptable dont know how they come up with that figure but I have had two 3.3ltr engs & used NO oil between changes
  2. My 09 RT consumes oil also I check the level once a week minimum & have to add oil I use synthetic & I think I will try Dino oil again to see if the consumption drops I have no leaks just uses oil-130000 klms
  3. In Ontario lots of us use Krown a yearly spray which has many satisfied customers
  4. You are not alone in your disappearing oil problem mine does it also with no noticeable smoke or leaks I have the engine oil cooler & thought it might have something to do with that as it runs fine I use synthetic oil and the larger 899 Mopar oil filter so who knows Things that make you go hmmmm
  5. I put 16" on my 09 RT with no problem & it has the 19" wheels
  6. It was an added expense that was not necessary if or when winter tires are reqd I dont mind using an air gauge to check tire pressure.I think the senors are more likely to fail in the winter with the ice snow slush cold salt etc. I'm sure those dash lights are not meant to be on continuously just glad to see they put in a disable feature wish I had it
  7. A good fix for a very annoying problem mine will not shut off so I had to buy sensors for my winter wheels which I hate
  8. When I bought mine the tow prep package was $75
  9. I have 125000klms on mine and I'm still very happy with the car-looks good -runs good-drives good
  10. I had to get my battery replaced today & after the replacement REQ radio reads out MECH ERROR but the radio functions -anyone know what this means or had it happen to them? 2009 RS
  11. 09 RT the lite was on then shut off I drove for a month with no sensors until I got some from Ebay then had them installed
  12. mine figured it out in a very short distance
  13. My wheels did not need to be recoded the sensors picked them up almost immediately I got my TPMS from Ebay for my winter rims
  14. You need a sensor for each rim-if you choose not to the light will stay on your dash as long as the ignition is on
  15. Wheel bearings have nothing to do with brakes-the hub also holds the cv shaft is that "brakes" also? I dont think so Your dealer is a dink
  16. I had both of mine replaced-one was due to a seized caliper causing it to overheat & fail around 63000 miles-110000klms As a side not I have the extended warranty so I did not pay anything
  17. If you have a long handle pry bar it works even better along with the WD40-mine came off quite easy and its an 09 I installed the Curt hitch from Ebay it is great
  18. I bought the Yokohama Prada 235/55/19 & they work fine
  19. Did you get it from Niagara Chrysler?
  20. I have Yokohamas on mine 235/55/19 & have no issues at all-they are a nice tire
  21. I would also want to know what they are "hiding"
